Evangonuts

I have sometimes used a service called Crosscards to send Christian themed cards to family members, it's a nice free service with pretty cool e-cards. Since I like the cards I said yes to the "do you want emails from us?" question. Most of the time they are pretty tame, some have been intriguing, like the ones about Christian martyrs around the world today.

Today though I got one from them that I can only classify as Evangonut stuff. Christian Zionists misread the bible and spew false teaching like mad, and it leads to nutty stuff like supporting Israel over the Arabs no matter how very wrong the Israeli side is.

It also leads to weird stuff like this:

In Genesis 49:25, Jacob blesses his son Joseph

We believe the Bible points towards the existence of oil, deep
beneath the Land of Israel .

This has been supported by American and Israeli experts in
oil exploration.

    Larry,

    As much as you feel that this is Evangonuts, it is pretty obvious that you are very biased against Israel and thus just as extreme from the opposite side. This company seems to be just one that is exploring for oil in a region that is full of it all around. There was a discovery according to the NYtimes off the coast.

    I guess to me it not such a big deal but it intrigues me that you were upset enough to blog about it. Just hit delete.

    My issue is when people equate the current day "state" of Israel with the People of God. It is plainly taught in the scriptures that the real Israel is the Church. What follows from making the mistake of thinking the "State of Israel" is Israel is a distortion of American foreign policy in the Middle East due to this false belief. We have supported Israel even on those occasions when they have clearly been in the wrong.

    As for Israel itself, I think that had to be just about the worst idea the Jewish people have had since they decided to reject the free salvation from sin offered by Our Lord Jesus Christ. Putting a Jewish country in Palestine might have seemed like a good idea at the time but really it was not so bright. I'm not a prophet at all but I would not expect it to last any longer than the crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem did. (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Jerusalem)

    Finally, I find the whole idea of a state based on ethnicity, race or religion to be stupid. People are people in my opinion. Here in America we have all sorts of ethnic groups living together in relative harmony, including just as many Jews as live in the State of Israel. There is no such thing as an Ethnic American really. Americans are just people who live here and who agree to live under our constitution (of course our government no longer follows it and that is clearly a problem, which, as you must know if you've read much of my blog, is a pet peeve of mine.)

    Of course all of the above is colored by the fact that I don't actually believe in ANY sort of government, being a Pacifist Christian Anarchist at heart. :-)

    Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

    And did you notice the blending of the American flag with the Israeli flag? [barf!]

NBC anti-life?

I would boycott NBC, if I ever watched it that is. I actually never watch anything on the old line networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. Everything I watch is on the cable only stations... do they still broadcast over the air? Ah well, this story is about the fact that it seems NBC refused to air an ad put together by some Catholic outfit that features an embryo and all of the hardships it faced in early life ending up with the revelation that they were talking about Obama. Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

Viva California! USA out of California Now!

Gene Veith points to a Russian who predicts the breakup the American Empire. Gene is somehow unaware of the dozens of secessionist movements in various states. Granted they are almost all small but still, they exist and this could be a good time for us. Those who know me already understand that I'm a California Nationalist who I doesn't think California should have joined those united States in the first place. Being a part of that empire just costs us money, we get nothing in return. These days we get to be hated by foreigners for being Americans and mocked by Americans for being Californians. Getting us out of the US yesterday would be a day too late as far as I'm concerned.

Government = Violence

What it comes down to is this, any law you propose states this, I will kill you if you do not agree to do "X." I say this because ALL laws say this. All . Jay walking is a "crime." So, what does that mean? It means if you jay walk you risk death at the hands of government enforcers. How so? You are accosted while jay walking by the local police. You say, "Buzz off bucko!" The cop says "you are under arrest!" You say "Not even." They attempt to restrain you and you resist, you are now "resisting arrest" and in the process of subduing you force will be used to make you to comply. The harder you resist the more likely "they" are to simply kill you. All laws imply deadly force. All laws = the death penalty. Of course they won't say you are being killed for the "crime" of jay walking, but for resisting arrest or attempting to escape or whatever, but really it's the original "crim
