Christians Are Such Arrogant Fools
The New World Order Is An Extension Of The Worst Elements Of Their Religion

Editorial -- I have begun to delve further into this Hope of the Wicked book
I got
from WorldNetDaily, and as I turn the pages I can only reflect on
what arrogant fools Christians are. The book is a relatively
intelligent description of how certain non-Christian religious
doctrines have played a role in forming the "New World Order", and
it is no question that these "occult" doctrines are doing that. What
the foolish Christian author does not understand is that these
so-called "occult" doctrines are not "Satanic" or something alien to
Christianity at all, but simply a legitimate "progressive evolution" of
the Christian principle - a Christian principle which itself a debased
understanding of a higher truth.
The arrogance of Christianity is that it sees itself as an
extreme. The arrogance of its "Satanic" opposition is that it sees
Christianity as an extreme as well. The Christians truly believe that
their faith represents on of the principles - light and darkness - that I
discussed yesterday, while in reality Christianity is neither principle,
but lies somewhere in the middle of the degradation of light to
darkness.
To say that Christianity has within it more light than the
doctrines of, say, Marilyn Manson's Satanism, is a given. To say
that Christianity itself is the light is to lie. Christianity was an
attempt to restore the light to a group of people who had already
begun to lose it; the light being ancient, even in times ancient by
our reckoning, it already begun to grow dim.
Think of it in this manner: There was once truth. Truth
itself cannot be mocked, or rather, one can form words mocking it,
but the words fall flat and are destroyed when they come into
comparison with truth. Truth itself cannot be degraded; it can only
be obscured.
Now think of man as having, at some point, lost the ability
to communicate the truth, and, having lost that ability, could only
hint at the truth through symbolic representations and allegories. It
is as if the words to communicate truth had gone, and man was only
left with his language, which could only communicate truth
indirectly. Truth itself becomes hidden and obscured.
"Holy" books, such as the Bible, contain some truth, but
the truth is communicated through allegory. Allegorical truth is a
mystery, and interpretation of the symbols requires initiation into
hidden doctrines. "Hidden" is what is meant by "occult".
All "occult" doctrines are not, however, equal. If there are
two principles - two ends - than one can consider that there are two
directions "occult" ism can lead to - one direction into light, the
other into darkness.
Christianity is neither light nor darkness, but it has at its
center a "Holy" Book that contains within it occult mysteries, which
can only be understood by those who are possessed of the key to
unlock them. One understanding of the mysteries leads man to a
state of understanding higher than literal Christianity. The other
understanding degrades man and leads him to a lower state.
Ignorant Christians of the modern type, unable to
understand the mysteries of their own book, but instead seeing
themselves as the pinnacle of light, denounce everything that is not
them, whether it is greater than them or lesser than them, as
"Satanic". They are just as ignorant of their betters as their lessers,
and their ignorance of their betters and their own shortcomings
makes them arrogant and full of pride - Mhnin -- that leads them to
believe that their own faith, and the fact that they exalt the darkness
within it while obscuring the light - is making as much a contribution
to the New World Order as Masonry and Earth worship and New
Age-ism and all these other doctrines who's real spiritual
underpinnings they only half understand.
