Oath Coordinator Resigns: Corruption In Courts Is Too Entrenched

Calls For A Federal Investigation

 Chestertown, New York- The coordinator for the New York State Oath of Office Project June Maxam, tearfully confided yesterday (March 18) that she has resigned from her investigations into the explosive judicial scandal rocking New York courts.

   “Something happened to me yesterday, it's like a piece was taken out of me, it's physical, it's like I had a stroke or shock, I am in just a state of total disbelief not only that the court totally disregarded the truth but obviously wasn't interested in the truth.”

    Maxam is responsible for uncovering nearly 82 percent of judges across New York who are violating the state Constitution and New York State law for failing to file their oath and or undertaking as mandated. “The situation in our courts extends beyond those in non-compliance and right smack into corruption so wide-spread there must be a federal investigation.” Maxam continued.

   “When you have solid proof of falsified transcripts and a judge and a DA who refuses to act upon it …allows this, New York has a major problem.” Maxam was appealing a four year-old harassment conviction before Glens Falls City Court Judge Tarentino.

   After a two-year delay in violation of three court orders, whe court stenographer Jayme Harvey finally produced the transcripts needed for the appeal, Maxam found that they had been falsified and could prove it by an unedited tape recording of the proceedings in question.

    But Tarantino refused to listen to the tape, refused to compare the actual transcript with the falsified transcripts and allowed the falsfied transcripts to serve as the official record.

“Tarentino isn’t even in office, nor is the special prosecutor, Gary Hobbs and Hobbs even filed a false statement with the Warren COunty District Attorney's office claiming he had filed an oath when the county clerk has certified he did not" Maxam lamented.

   “The issue here isn’t about me. Everyday I get calls from all over New York from people so extorted by our courts begging me to help expose the corruption. What they fail to understand is my investigative journalism has cost me the ability to regularly publish my paper, my advertisers were threatened with being burned out and now its gone on to the level of harassing my 86 year-old father, all in an effort to stop me from exposing the corruption. If that’s not illegal what is?  That is a total abuse and corruption of the judicial system.” 

   Maxam says that even lawyers are too afraid of the current system to act, “Judges in New York are allowed to violate our laws and lawyers are too fearful to speak-up…our Attorney General could care less that judges wield power that overextends their authority. Where is Chief Justice Judith Kaye? Does it matter to her that her fellow justices are violating not just public officers law, but trashing both our state and federal Constitutions…apparently not.”

   Ms. Maxam’s activism to force compliance by officials has as she stated, “Put me in personal danger and I face four years in jail after having already been illegally incarcerated four times because officials willfully ignore the Bill of Rights.” When asked if she believed giving up her crusade would alleviate her legal problems, Maxam emphatically stated. “Oh, for certain. I’m a threat to their power base. They must shut me up because I have exposed them for what they are … imposters and gangsters in black robes.”

   The findings of Maxam’s investigation was hand delivered to Attorney General Spitzer who as of this date has not commented nor apparently acted to reform our justice system.

The release of the film “Passion” of Mel Gibson, at the end of February this year, was preceded by months of passionate media discussions, mostly centered at the issue whether this colorful relation, from Jesus Christ last half day of earthly life, has an anti-Semitic character or not. Such propaganda without doubt has helped to make a fortune by enterprising investors into filmed version of “Passion”, but surely not only money animated all these, not yet finished, deliberations about the supposed history of last moments of most important Christian hero. (Moslems believe that Apostles had a delusion, seeing their teacher at the cross, according to their interpretation, on the cross was hanged someone else, while prophet Issa escaped from hostile Israel, and ended his life peacefully in beautiful Indian Kashmir.)

Looking at the contemporary mass-media phenomena in a cool way, any film is, by its definition, only a play of shadows, which excites spectators self-imprisoned inside dark, Platonian cavern-like cinema halls. The film is thus – Gibson's “Passion” included – only a ‘doxa’, a delusion of senses, as called it ancient Greek philosophers. But what kind of wisdom – a deeper, not directly touching our senses message – we have to search for, behind filmed by Gibson cruel images of the misery of last moments of Jesus?

In order o answer this question, it is worth to recall what ancient philosophers had to say about the cruel fate of people who, like Jesus of Nazareth, dreamed of re-organization of their societies in possibly just manner. It is not so surprising that already in “Republic” of Plato, which was written roughly four hundred years before the supposed Christ crucification, we find the pre-figuration of tortures of Jesus Christ during his last dozen of hours. Describing the standard behavior of “most unjust” people, one of participants of this antique dialogue, Plato's brother Glaucon observes:

“These who place the unjust above the righteous will say that the righteous, which I pictured, will be flagellated, tortured, charged with chains, that they will burn out his eyes, and finally, after suffering all these wrongdoings he will be crucified” (lit. impale – “La Republique” II, 361, Flammarion, Paris 1966).

Glaucon argues “that by committing these most unjust acts he (the most unjust person) earns the greatest reputation of being a righteous one, and in case he makes an error, he used to speak with eloquence in order to throw out the guilt (onto the innocent man-scapegoat)”.

The chapter II of “Republic” gives thus the outline of the perfidious – but highly efficient – behavior of “most unjust” people. In subsequent chapters of this dialogue Socrates argues that this highly unethical situation – when unjust men "heal wounds" of their reputation by inflicting sufferances to righteous people – is possible only in totally corrupt and unjust societies, where elites have not been trained enough to feel the repulsion towards such perversion of ethics. In the light of Plato's "Republic", the cruel history of crucification of truth-telling Jesus of Nazareth, has to be considered as the result of the ‘training in cognitive corruption’ of the theocracy of antique Israel. This ruling caste Jesus of Nazareth openly denounced, as "thieves and robbers", and thus no wonder that sincere followers of Moses punished him in agreement with prescriptions of their Holy Robbers’ Law (Torah).

One of these Mosaic "thieves and robbers" was without doubt the prophet known as (deutero) Isaiah, who was writing roughly at the same time as Plato. This famous prophet proposed (to careful readers of his lucubrations) the “just way”, in which swindlers and criminals of all kinds may “dress themselves” in appearances of righteous citizens. According to Isaiah's recipe, in order to appear as a man of justice and of a good reputation, a master (a “Lord”) has to profit skillfully from the misfortune of his “suffering servant” (or eventually of his own son). Moreover, this “Lord’s servant” (or son) has to accept his fate of a ‘redeemer’ with the lamb-like, imbecile resignation. Literally, Isaiah wrote: “He was oppressed and he was afflicted, yet he not opened his mouth; like a lamb that is lead to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is dumb, so he not opened his mouth. By oppression and judgement he was taken away.” (Is. 54, 7-8; isn’t it a kind of a repetition of the quoted above opinion of Glaucon from “Republic”?

This antique Hebrew recipe for creating the appearance of righteousness – by an exaltation of the redemptory value of the sufferance of “God’s lamb” – has become, with centuries, the most important dogma of the official Christian Church. The “voluntary suffering of Christ (who has become for us a model to follow)”, was for example the theme of teaching of our Catholic Pope, during the General Audience at Vatican on January 14 this year. John Paul II stressed during this audience that he only repeats teachings of his predecessor, Apostle Peter, who, in his “I-st Letter”:

“has drawn a worth of admiration synthesis of Christ’s passion, referring to words and images of Isaiah, applied to the person of suffering servant, and read anew from the messianic point of view through the ancient Christian tradition. (According to this Tradition) Jesus is the immolatory lamb without blemish, whose precious blood has been spilled for our redemption. He is a living stone thrown out by builders, nevertheless chosen by God to be a “corner stone”, which joins together the “spiritual edifice” which is the Church. He is the righteous, who sacrifices himself for unrighteous, this in order to lead them to God. (...) St. Peter pictures Christ as a model to contemplate and to imitate, as a “program”, which is necessary to realize, and as an example, which is necessary to follow without hesitation, mimicking his choice. (...) This idea, although set up in different words, corresponds to the teaching of St. Paul about the baptism, in which we are born anew as a new creation, by an immersion in the mystery of passion, death and glory of Christ.” (Warsaw journal “Nasz Dziennik”, Jan. 15. 2004, p.8)

The fact that the technique of “redemption” was known already centuries before the birth of Jesus of Nazareth, inspires us to ask, where from got Isaiah his fertile idea that by sufferances inflicted upon a sinless (without blemish) human scapegoat, it is possible to “heal wounds” (it means, to obliterate sins and crimes) of believers in this cruel story? Our illustrious ecclesiastics maintain that this is a mystery (vide Pope), but this is not a mystery for lawyers who studied methods, which unscrupulous people use to “dress themselves” into doings of these righteous ones. This is not a mystery also for these of Christians, who thoroughly studied Gospels, where Our Savior tells his disciples that “all who come before me were thieves and robbers”. This opinion suggests that by an analysis of the behavior of contemporary gangsters we may find wherefrom originated essential mysteries of the Judeo-Christianity. (To these “mysteries” I include, in particular, the incorporation of pastoral letters of Peter and Paul into the canonic Christian Bible – this was definitively achieved during the Council of Nice in 325.)

As the method of ‘redemption’ of criminal acts, by casting them on an innocent man-scapegoat is considered, I have in memory a story I’ve read about 20 years ago in Poland. A member of a large, multigenerational family of village dwellers had committed a serious crime in vicinity, and the police soon discovered that all traces lead to the house of this particular family. But the son, who did this crime (a murder, as I remember) had a wife with several kids, and moreover, he had a very well paid job, so the “large family council” has decided that the youngest, not yet married son, has to admit the crime, and in this way he will save his important (for the family budget) brother. For all family members were witnessing against him, the innocent young men went to prison, and being young and attractive soon become a sexual “puppet” to his cellmates. After a year or two he has become psychically ill, and thanks to prison’s psychiatrist his sinister case of a “savior”, of the crime-ridden family, has reached the press.

This is not an isolated case. In 1999, soon after the “liberation” of Kosovo Mafia by NATO “Salvation Army”, I’ve read in Polish newspaper about the method of “redemption of crimes” practiced by Albanian gangsters, who usually have extremely numerous families, up to twelve children, as it was the case of this prolific mythical Patriarch of Israel, Jacob. These Albanian, super-fertile families select in advance one of their members (usually the least aggressive one) to be killed by others in case the family runs into troubles – in front of the tribunal all family members solidarize blaming the dead member for the crime committed, and in this simple way the family escapes the justice. (Of course, for scapegoats they choose in advance these among them, who have the preponderancy to tell the truth, for these are dangerous ones, who eventually may become traitors of family – or clan’s – criminal secrets. This was in deep Antiquity the fate of not only of Jesus of Nazareth, but also of the truth-telling Joseph, whom other sons of biblical Jacob intended to kill.)

I do postulate that these practices of clans (“families”) of unscrupulous gangsters of Antiquity the prophet Isaiah has “spiritualized” and purposefully inserted into the Hebrew Bible. Subsequently, Funding Fathers of the Church, apostles Peter and Paul, have made from this, prepared by prophet Isaiah recipe, a “living stone thrown out by (mentally healthy) builders, a ‘corner stone’, which joints together the ‘spiritual edifice’ which is the Church”. This is the most catholic opinion of the Pope, who at the General Audience at Vatican on January 15 has told visitors that Jesus “is the righteous, who sacrificed himself for unrighteous, this in order to lead them to God”.

If we dare to observe that “Unique G-d” of thieves and robbers is Mammon, the meaning of Christ’s passion becomes suddenly very transparent. Jesus “was oppressed and he was afflicted”, he was tortured and finally crucified (empaled? – as suggests it Glaucon in Plato’s “Republic”), in order to assure the well-being of all these religoius scoundrels – to use once again Pope own words – who by an “immersion in the mystery of passion, death and glory of Christ, are born anew as a new creation.” In short, when Jews, pictured at Mel Gibson’s movie, shout “His blood on ours and our children heads!” they unconsciously dream of prolongation of their specific culture by a “baptism (by a sprinkling with precious blood of Christ) in which they will be born anew” in form of so-called “Newly born Judeo-Christians” of today.

This principal idea of St. Paul that previously pagan Christians are supposed to convert into New, Better Jews, was well understood by Fathers of the Church, in particular by St. Augustin, who in “La doctrina Christiana” gave the recipe how to proceed successfully in footprints left by Moses thieves and robbers. I’ve argued, already during the World Public Forum at Rhodes in Sept. 2003 that since the invention of “Passion” public spectacles – which happen roughly a thousand years ago, immediately after the split between the Western and Eastern Church – treasures of Vatican become quickly filled with gold and other riches collected in all converted to “the Christian faith” countries [1].

In my humble opinion this is the WISDOM hidden behind the ‘doxa’ – the appearance – of the ‘catharsis’ of participants in the recently filmed spectacle of the tragedy of mute Christ. By throwing (frequently unconsciously) onto Jews their own sins, these “born anew, as the new creation” pseudo-Christians are becoming internally serene, and thus ready for new, external conquests. At present our “Newly Born Pseudo Christians”, principally from USA, become engaged in a New Crusade against Islam, and thus is no wonder that their hardly concealed “invisible leaders” restored to socio-techniques used during First Crusades, a thousand years ago. Thanks to Israel Shamir (from Israel) I’ve learned about the Joahim Martillo’s article “The politics of Passion” [2] where the author writes:

“The early development of Passion plays may correlate both with the Crusades and with the suppression of political disorder and heresy in France and Germany. There is a fairly large (mostly dubious) literature from that time period that portrays the Muslim as the ally of the Jew. Creating enough animosity to inspire French and Germans to take up arms and travel to fight in Palestine might have required a difficult staged marketing effort that involved portraying a Jewish/Judean persecution of Christ and then making claims that Muslims were Jewish allies.”

A thousand years later the geopolitical situation changed. After the suppression of heresy (communism) in Europe, Moslems have become the “terrorist danger” to Mankind. And in order to inspire Americans, Russians, Italians (Poles and so on) to travel to Middle East to fight terrorism, requires a difficult staged marketing effort: Muslims are not believers, for they believe not that Christ was crucified, and thus automatically they believe not in our Redemption. So (pseudo)Christians, acting as Paul’s ‘New, Better Jews’, are supposed to erase this heresy, saving at the same time “the Hebrew root of our Christian faith”. (Once again I repeat the recent, ultra-catholic opinion of Vatican officials.) The more perspicacious Orthodox Rabbis have grasped well this opportunity to exploit, for the Israel’s advantage, feelings of compassion of “stupid as animals” (pseudo)Christians. Already several months before the “Passion” release, the New York’s rabbi Lapin in a radio talk argued in a following way:

“Right now, the most serious peril threatening Jews, and indeed perhaps all of Western Civilization, is Islamic fundamentalism. In this titanic 21st-century struggle that links Washington, D.C. with Jerusalem, our only steadfast allies have been Christians. In particular, those Christians that most ardently defend Israel and most reliably denounce anti-Semitism, happen to be those Christians most fervently committed to their faith. Jewish interests are best served by fostering friendship with Christians rather than cynically eroding them. Rejecting flagrant anti-Christianism on the part of Jews claiming to be acting on our behalf would be our wisest course as a community.” [3]

The Pope has indicated, in his speech during the audience of January 14, that the obligatory engagement of Christians (?) on the side of the Hebrew Tradition, we can trace back to Apostles Peter and Paul. But were these illustrious Fathers of Church really righteous men, or they only got their good reputation by profiting of the Jesus of Nazareth sufferance? Were these Apostles only “healing their wounds” – it means, improving their public image – by waving the cross with Jesus crucified, as does it incessantly our Pope? (In respect to this highly reputable person, since more than two decades I have an impression that he fits well the description of Pharisees and hypocrites given by the truth-telling Jesus: “(they) look like whitewashed tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but within they are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness. So (they) outwardly appear righteous to men, but within are full of hypocrisy and iniquity” – Mat. 23, 27-28.)

In Plato’s “Republic” Socrates argues that it is indeed a hard task to behave as a righteous man, in fact one has to be trained since childhood in appropriate way (by gymnastics, music and than mathematics) to develop in himself the virtue. Moreover, one has to demonstrate righteousness during all his adult life, it is not at all possible to be “born anew, as a new creation”, as Jewish Pharisee and hypocrite Saul, after mutation into Christian Apostle Paul, deceitfully assured naive consumers of his “letters”. “Apostles Acts” inform us that the “breathing murder and threats” Saul unjustly condemned the free-thinking, “Hellenizing” Christian leader Stephen for the death by lapidation, so we can be sure – in light of not only Socrates pedagogy – that Paul hasn’t become a righteous person, also after his conversion, while he “dressed himself into an ornate” of Vicar of Crucified Christ.

The same critic holds in case of Peter. Already during Jesus life he denied Him three times, afraid of personal punishment. It is thus evident that also after the death of his temporary Teacher (rabbi), he denied him too, while menaced by secret police of Israel of his time. In “Letters of Peter” we find not a word of Jesus’ teachings, instead we have the mindless repetition of “teachings” of Isaiah, and a faithful repetition of Paul’s calls for submission of Christians to all authorities – including these most unjust ones. Both these Apostles should be thus considered as mere Jesus Traitors. The Church they have built on Christ’s crucified body (it means, on Jesus dead flesh, bones and skull) only appears (doxa) to be the one, which is promoting behaviors recommended by Evangiles.

In its deeper significance the mission of Peter & Paul is an updated continuation of the same Hebrew Tradition laid down by Isaiah and other “servants of the Lord Mammon”. It means that inside Vatican, well hidden behind the paper curtain of Gospels, dwells in security the Brigand Cavern of New, Better Jews, dreaming of the total, promised by Isaiah, planetary conquest (see for ex. Is. 60, 11-13).

It is not by an accident that all more prominent (pseudo)Christians dream loudly about the “New Jerusalem” and the “New Earth”. In order to create such dreamed by Apostle Peter “new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells” (II P. 3, 13) Fathers Pilgrims, chased from England, came to North America in 1621 with their genocide mission. About this Isaiah’s “New Earth” dreams overtly also the present Pope in his encyclical letter “Laborem exercens” of 1981. But the Socratic analysis of the text of Isaiah, where from the lure of the “shinning city on the hill”, New Jerusalem has originated, points cruelly to the fact that such “New Israel” must necessarily be the City (Polis) of the Most Unjust People. There is no way to avoid this sinister reality, towards which lead us blind “missionaries of God-Mammon”, relying on the Authority of the Bible. Simply, on sufferances of (without blemish) “God’s servants”, only empires of the wickedest people can be build. For a man, thinking in rational terms, the cross symbolizes the fate of all righteous people in a pervert society, which is the one, which worships Passion. (This is what teaches my cousin, a mountain guide, to school excursions he guides in Tatras, where in last 20 years crosses proliferated at the pollution reaching level.)

The noble, in the intention of Jesus of Nazareth, concepts of Christianity became perverted soon after the death of their Author. We can infer this already from the message of “II Letter of St. Peter”, where the aging Apostle tries to convince readers that his prophetic guidance is comparable to that of... Lucifer:

“And we have the prophetic word made more sure. You will do well to pay attention to this as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.” The morning star, planet Venus, is called in French – and possibly also in Latin – Lucifer, the one which “brings light”. And what kind of light our Apostle has brought to his “sheep”? We find it in a subsequent verse “First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one’s own interpretation, because no prophecy ever came by the impulse of man, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.” (II P. 1, 19-21.) This, directed against all broad-minded men interdiction, clearly indicates that not only Saul/Paul, but also Peter was in fact a full-breed Luciferian, wanting to keep minds of people in constant delusion with the fake light of “Scripture from God”.

Despite three years, which Peter supposedly spent in a company of Jesus, he remained a stubborn “like a mule”, narrow-minded orthodox Jew, faithful to his “ papyrus/paper Lord”, wishing not to know the triviality, which his Teacher was trying to reveal to his followers: that Holy Scriptures of Israel were written (and kept in purity through centuries) by Spiritual Gangsters, claiming themselves to be “servants of G-d”. And with the “numerous as stars on the sky” progeny of these industrious, but blind, “termites” of Antiquity we have somehow to cope today.

Which is more important: somebody's name or the eternal truth?
 
 

By John Kaminski
skylax@comcast.net
 
 

It's not the creed that's important, it's the integrity.

    It's not the name that we give to the thing we worship, it's recognizing the essence of that thing as the highest truth, the thing worth being worshipped, so that the name we put on it doesn't really matter, as long as we recognize the thing for what it is.

    We're too caught up in names, in identity, in rituals, and holiness. Piety makes me sick. Rituals bore me. What we're looking for is truth, and that can come in many guises, be from many places, and certainly have an infinite number of different names.

    Do you understand what I'm saying?

    Let me make it clearer.

    Those spiritual gangsters who were run out of Egypt all those years ago have led us in the wrong direction. And they've been abetted by holy men of all persuasions who have betrayed those who have sought sanctuary in them, solace from them. The maintenance of their own churchly business has become more important to them then the souls they're supposed to be putting at ease, to be trying to save. It's a problem with every church, synagogue and mosque that ever existed. Some of them lose their souls over it.

    Spiritual gangsters, that's the right name for them. They saw the people's need. And they took advantage of it. We have to have that home to go to, that place of rest. If we don't have it, we can't function. Sure, you can call it repression of fear of death. But it's the human condition. We can't deal with it without some help. Otherwise, we'll get sick, or worse, weird. And maybe that's what happened to them. It's the story of the first holy man, and every single one since.

    People need to have things explained. Why am I here? What is it all for? And most importantly, where am I going? If it's not explained, and then tucked safely away in your brain like some kind of paid fuel bill, you're going to worry. And worry keeps you from seeing, from being able to do all those other wonderful that makes life the joy it can be.

    But problems arise when you get two different versions of the truth. It's the same truth. But it's two businessmen, each describing it differently, each trying to survive, each trying to make a profit (no, that's too harsh, at this level) ... each trying to make his creed survive to serve the people it was intended to serve. And eventually going to war over their two different versions of the same story. Really sick. It's the story of the stupid human race.

    Here in this Westernized world we live in, we all derive our spiritual heritage from the same bunch of Old Testament hooligans who were thrown out of Egypt for nasty, usurious practices that many of them still exhibit today. Then they were kicked out of Babylon and set up shop near the Dead Sea.

    Put any kind of name on them you want: thugs with yarmulkes or perverts with crosses, or perhaps worst of all, smug businessmen with clerical collars telling you they can save your soul when they're really thinking about building theme parks in South Carolina. They've bet their eternal souls on their bank accounts, and made people believe that the name was more important than the thing that the name was trying to describe.

    And that's how we lost our way.

    Which leads us to the present day.

    These same certain thugs are acting like any holy men trying to set up an advantage for themselves in order to gain more money to pile in their particular houses of worship. And because they're so subtle, so intelligent, and so rich, they've managed to create laws in a lot of places that forbid people from talking about certain events of history.

    Without going into this particularly freighted event, let's just examine what it means to prohibit people from talking about certain events. I think they call it, in some European countries, "profaning the memory of the dead," and they're putting plenty of people in jail for just bringing the subject up.

    You'd think, in this supposedly enlightened day and age, that people were intelligent enough and open-minded enough to talk about anything, discuss it rationally, and then come to some sort of consensus about what was the objective truth. But no. It hasn't turned out that way.

    The guys with the yarmulkes say you can't talk about it, what we say is true, it may not be challenged, and we'll put you in jail if you continue this conversation.

    Well, you have to take it seriously, because there are people in jail because of it. Just look at old Ernst Zundel, kidnapped out of his house in Tennessee and now having spent a year in solitary confinement in Canada without any formal charges, just because he feels the need to point out that those gas chambers you can see on the Auschwitz tour weren't really there in that particular form during World War II. They've been reconstructed, and some people quibble about the reconstruction. But there's a law that you can't talk about, and he's in jail.

    It's a classic example of the maxim: it's not the creed, it's the integrity. In this case, integrity is the big loser. Not to mention Freedom of Speech. It's definitely a religious issue. But it has nothing to do with God. Only the version (or perversion) of what one group of supposedly holy men wants to cram down the throats of everybody else.

    Now, remember that we have to be careful about who we're criticizing, because all too often we'll discover we're only criticizing ourselves. Such is the case with all this palaver about Jews. Sure, the behavior of Israelis — calling their neighbors vermin and trying to exterminate them as such — brings a lot of needless heat down upon themselves, as do their traditions of usurious banking, constantly claiming they're discriminated against while they're the richest ethnic group on the planet, and also their open sexuality (to put it politely). This last talent causes problems but also makes a lot of money from those who don't like talking about sex in public but sure do in private.

    Considering from where the Jewish tradition derives, the very people who criticize it most better take a lot harder look at where their own traditions come from, and realize that the very basis of Christianity and Islam derive from ideas and rules Jews invented. In fact, if you want to get a little paranoid about it, you could wonder if the Jews didn't invent those two spiritual paths in order to gain a little privacy for themselves. Or some other advantage, like yoking people with moral restraints while keeping their own rules more flexible in order to gain a couple of extra points on the rate, if you know what I mean.

    Lately I was privileged to receive an interesting post from Rumor Mill News titled "Shock: Secret Identity Of Israel's Yahweh Revealed!" I had this feeling I was reading "Weekly World News" in the 7th century B.C.

    The point the story tried to make was that if Israel tried to claim some kind of divine right to that land it stole from the Palestinians, it better take a harder look at its own actual history, and realize the basis for this claim rests on extremely shaky ground.

    Recently, in  speech to visiting Christian Zionists, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon asserted, "This land is ours... God gave us the title deeds..." However, recent scholarly research, including discoveries by an archaeological team from the University of Tel Aviv, not only deconstruct the Biblical Old Testament and Torah stories upon which this claim rests, but grant previously unthinkable credence to an ancient historian's claim that the Israelites of Exodus were actually the Hyksos, and therefore of Asiatic origin.

    So wrote a cryptic fellow who goes by the name of M-theory. Briefly told, he wrote that the Israelites were never in Egypt and that the Jewish god YHWH had a girlfriend, the goddess Asherah. (Is there a law against saying this?)

    He cited evidence that indicates Solomon and David are absent from the archeological record. Holy screaming Pentateuch! Does this mean they didn't exist? Well, the same thing could be said about Jesus. You can't find him in the empirical history books, either.

    As far as the modern day Israelis being descended from the Mongol hordes from Asia, well, we already knew that, from Arthur Koestler's famous book "The Thirteenth Tribe" which revealed that most of the present-day inhabitants of Israel are really expatriate Russians, and not Semites (which means there's nothing to be anti- about). Crooks are crooks regardless of their DNA.

    Other nuggets from Mr. M-Theory include:

    "Asherah, (whose name means "she who walks in the sea") supposedly consort of the supreme god El, was also referred to as Elath (the goddess). According to the Ugarit tradition, whose clay tablets contain the earliest known alphabet, she was consort of El, and mother of seventy gods. She is also associated with Baal and is supposed to have interceded to her husband, the supreme god, on Baal's behalf, for the building of a palace in order to grant him equal status with other gods. In the cuniform tablets of Ras Shamrah (Circa 1400 BCE) the head of the Pantheon was El; his wife was Asherat-of-the-sea (Asherah). After El, the greatest god was Baal, son of El and Asherah. Curiously, Baal's consort is his mother, Asherah. In the Lebanon traditions Baal is equated with Jupiter."

    Yeeowww! This means that Yahweh, whom Jewish scholars now say redacts back to Baal, had sex with his mother! Holy screaming Sophocles! There must be a law against saying that! Maybe there will be soon.

    "According to biblical scholars who focus on the "P Source" for the old testament," M-Theory writes, "Yahweh as a name is first used with Moses in Exodus, and is indicative of monolatory (exclusive worship of one of many Gods) rather than  monotheism. The name Yahweh can also be translated as "I am who I am", literally a way of saying "mind your own business", a way of disguising his true identity. Yahweh does not appear until Exodus and, strangely, the god Baal is entirely absent in Genesis."

    And, the mysterious author adds, in a perfect consistency with the vicious tone of the Old Testament, "This Yahweh is prone to violence and seems to despise his chosen people."

    Lest I give away M-Theory's entire game, let me just quote one other segment of his fascinating exploration of pre-Christian mythology.

    "The Hebrews living in Canaan were therefore under Egyptian rule. It is also here in Canaan that we can make a comparison between Yahweh and the Canaanite Moloch (Baal) and extrapolate a polemic inversion of the story of Pharaoh ordering the death of all the "first born" in Exodus.

    "The worshippers of Moloch sacrificed their first born children to their deity through immolation. Worshippers of Yahweh in Canaan were also known to carry out child sacrifice on occasion, especially in times of hardship, although immolation (holocaust) was supposedly frowned upon. Slitting the child's throat, however, was acceptable."

    This information dovetails perfectly with what I've been reading lately in my Talmudic studies on Carol Valentine's eye-opening website Come and Hear <http://www.come-and-hear.com> (a must-read compendium if there ever was one) where the preferred method of execution for innumerable offenses by the goyim (surely you know who they are — they're us, dummy) is decapitation.

    So the danger becomes: if Christians and Muslims try to impugn the Jewish faith and declare their god is some minor mountain deity from the hinterlands of Ugarit, they're only going to bring themselves down with it. Because the whole legend of Jesus, which was constructed of equally spurious and unrigorous chicanery, is cobbled together with the same inconsistency, carelessness and manipulation.

    Religion is essentially crowd control, devised by Constantian-type governments to keep the people from rising up against their leaders. It had to be a very rich person who said "the meek shall inherit the earth."

    Anyway, the whole piece — "Shock: Secret Identity Of Israel's Yahweh Revealed!" — is well worth reading for its astonishing Old Testament gossip. Click  http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?read=42815

    All this folderol goes to show the wisdom on the ancient proscription of trying to give that ineffable and majestic spirit that animates the universe any kind of name whatsoever. You're only asking for trouble if you do, thanks to priests (and ministers and rabbis and whatever kind of guruistic occupational title you want to apply) who value the profitability of the tale they wish to tell higher than the needs of those who need to be reassured that their future is something more than the ignominious dust they will one day surely become.

    If you want to go looking for the essence of the spirit that animates everything, don't go searching through ossified parchments in rancid temples. Find the spark you need to mobilize yourself in the diamond's eye in the rain, or in the teardrop of your lonely child.

    And don't let the spiritual gangsters tell you otherwise. 
 

    John Kaminski is the author of "America's Autopsy Report," a collection of his Internet essays featured on hundreds of websites around the world. A second volume of his essays, titled "The Perfect Enemy," is currently under construction and due to be published later this year. In addition he is about to release a pamphlet titled "The Day America Died," an overview of 9/11 aimed at convincing those who still believe in the official version of events that the story as told by the U.S. government is really a manipulative fantasy aimed at vilifying Muslims to more easily steal their oil. Funding for this project, and the author's food budget, is still being sought, and contributions will be gratefully accepted.
