Quotes of the Week - January 17, 2012:
"Our campaign is about more than replacing a President. It is about
saving the soul of America." -- Republican Mitt Romney, US presidential
hopeful, after winning New Hampshire primary.
"Remember to look up at the stars and not down to your feet. Try
to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe
exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always
something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don't just
give up." -- Professor Stephen Hawking on his 70th birthday.
"American children had never seen a moving bosom before."

McPhee.

The
Bible did not arrive by fax from heaven…The Bible is the
product of man, my dear. Not of God. The Bible did not fall
magically from the clouds. Man created it as a historical record
of tumultuous times, and it has evolved through countless translations,
additions, and revisions. History has never had a definitive
version of the book.

Jesus
Christ was a historical figure of staggering influence, perhaps
the most enigmatic and inspirational leader the world has ever
seen . . . Understandably, His life was recorded by thousands
of followers across the land . . . More than eighty gospels
were considered for the New Testament, and yet only a relative
few were chosen for inclusion - Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John
among them . . . The Bible, as we know it today, was collated
by the pagan Roman emperor Constantine the Great.
The Da Vinci Code |
The
vestiges of pagan religion in Christian symbology are undeniable.
Egyptian sun disks became the halos of Catholic saints. Pictograms
of Isis nursing her miraculously conceived son Horus became
the blueprint for our modern images of the Virgin Mary nursing
Baby Jesus. And virtually all the elements of the Catholic ritual
- the miter, the altar, the doxology, and communion, the act
of "God-eating" - were taken directly from earlier
pagan mystery religions.

Nothing
in Christianity is original. The pre-Christian God Mithras -
called the Son of God and the Light of the World - was born
on December 25, died was buried in a rock tomb, and then resurrected
in three days. By the way, December 25 is also the birthday
or Osiris, Adonis, and Dionysus. The newborn Krishna was presented
with gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Even Christianity's weekly
holy day was stolen from the pagans.

Originally
Christianity honored the Jewish Sabbath of Saturday, but Constantine
shifted it to coincide with the pagan's veneration day of the
sun. To this day, most churchgoers attend services on Sunday
morning with no idea that they are there on account of the pagan
sun god's weekly tribute - Sunday.
The Da Vinci Code |
At
this gathering [Council of Niceau in 324 AD] many aspects of
Christianity were debated and voted upon - the date of Easter,
the role of the bishops, the administration of sacraments, and,
of course, the divinity of Jesus . . . until that moment in
history, Jesus was viewed by His followers as a mortal prophet
. . . a great and powerful man, but a man nonetheless. A mortal.

Legend
tells us the Holy Grail is a chalice - a cup. But the Grail's
description as a chalice is actually an allegory to protect
the true nature of the Holy Grail…The Grail is literally
the ancient symbol for womanhood and the Holy Grail represents
the sacred feminine and the goddess, which of course has now
been lost, virtually eliminated by the Church.
The Da Vinci Code |
The
Church needed to defame Mary Magdalene [making her out to be
a prostitute] in order to cover up her dangerous secret - her
role as the Holy Grail.

Sophie
moved closer to the image [The Last Supper painting by Leonardo
da Vinci]. The woman to Jesus' right was young and pious-looking,
with a demure face, beautiful red hair, and hands folded quietly….
"Who is she?" Sophie asked.
"That, my dear," Teabing replied, "is Mary Magdalene."
The Da Vinci Code |
The
marriage of Jesus and Mary Magdalene is part of the historical
record.
