THE NEW PAGANISM: How Christianity is being replaced by 'green' religion,
goddess worship, globalism
Relentless attacks on America's Christian churches - not just from without,
but from within - which are steadily remolding institutionalized
Christianity to serve a new, non-Christian, globalist agenda, are the focus
of August's eye-opening edition of Whistleblower.
For years, Christians have stood by helplessly as their once-dominant
religion has been increasingly scoffed at, marginalized and demonized. They
have watched a dizzying succession of outrageous court decisions - outlawing
the 10 Commandments in schools and courtrooms, forbidding acknowledgement of
God in graduation speeches, and most recently, declaring public recitation
of the Pledge of Allegiance unconstitutional.
And they have reeled at prosecutions that criminalize conscientious
Christians, such as that of the Canadian printer fined $5,000 for refusing
to print materials for a "gay rights" group. Or the shocking revelation that
the Swedish parliament is pushing to amend that country's constitution to
ban speech or writing opposing homosexuality - even within churches
themselves - violations of which could result in prison sentences.
But while these are the conflict's familiar flashpoints, the real fight lies
elsewhere. Indeed, the biggest war of all is that raging within the churches
themselves.
The Catholic Church's devastating clergy sex scandal - with its seemingly
endless revelations of predatory homosexual priests molesting boys, and the
stunning failure of their superiors to put a stop to it - is the tip of the
iceberg. As August's Whistleblower shows, the fierce battle for control, not
only of the Catholic Church, but of many of the mainline Protestant
denominations as well, is the real story. The combatants range from the
familiar front-line storm troopers - homosexual activists, ACLU lawyers,
atheists - to the exotic - environmentalists, the United Nations,
globalists, New Agers, witches and occultists, and many others almost too
strange to believe. But all are engaged in an ultimate fight - a battle to
the death, winner takes all - for control of the major institutions of the
Christian religion.
"America is rapidly changing from the jewel of Judeo-Christian Western
Civilization to a screaming babel of wild religious movements, each more
wacky than the next, and all animated by rebellion against the religion and
values upon which America was founded, and which made it the greatest nation
in world history," said WND Editor and CEO Joseph Farah.
And just what, exactly, is attempting to replace Christianity as the
dominant religion in America?
Superficially, it appears to be just a freak show, ranging from the
seemingly harmless "Entertainment Paganism" ("Dungeons and Dragons," "white
witchcraft," "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Witchblade") to "Teen Cult
Paganism" (teens in Gothic drag, freaky hair colors, tattoos, body piercing,
"body art," black garb, studs and chains) to "Ecology Theology" (free-form
sexual morality, "gaia" worship, native spirituality rituals) to the
wide-ranging "New Age Movement" (believes humankind is on the cusp of a new
dawn, beginning new phase in evolutionary history) to "Dark Paganism"
(believes there's no such thing as "evil," and for whom destruction and
death are forms of beauty) to "Wicca" (witchcraft is reportedly the fastest
growing religion in Australia) and "Satanism" (consciously acknowledges
Satan as master, and seeks power to corrupt all things, especially
Christianity).
But that's only the surface. As WND reveals in this issue of Whistleblower,
the paganization of America's churches - already well under way - is
consciously intended to usher in a "new age" of global government, with the
United Nations as the global "brain" of a new world order.
And no, this is not conspiracy stuff. It's real - and it's happening now.
This "new" religious worldview is sugar-coated with high-minded and
universal ideals of environmental protection and species preservation, but
the ultimate agenda behind the movement is much darker.
The ultimate purpose of "green religion" is to convince the people of the
world to embrace world governance - which for a free nation like America
represents a massive loss of national sovereignty and personal freedom - for
the supposed sake of Mother Earth ("gaia") and the environment. After all,
it is a lot easier to administer world government if all people believe it
represents their salvation, rather than tyranny.
How is this to be accomplished? To begin with, assign new names to old
demons. What once was called "paganism" has been renamed and assigned a new
respectability as the "gaia hypothesis." The once-hated idea of world
government has been renamed "global governance." The concept of national
sovereignty is eroding and transmuting into the concept of "sovereign
equality."
"The vanguard of this movement," explains Henry Lamb in "The rise of global
green religion," "people like James Parks Morton, James Lovelock, Robert
Muller, Al Gore, Timothy Wirth and many, many others, have been
'enlightened' through their biocentric belief in gaia" - the belief that the
earth itself is a conscious, living organism - "and therefore they know what
is best for the planet. They also know that the only way to protect the
sacred gaia is to control the people who are degrading her. The only way to
control the people is through an omnipotent government that is, at this
moment, consolidating its power into an ever-growing bureaucracy, now
stretching around the globe, extending its tentacles into every corner of
human life, creating de facto global governance."
And guess what? Not only has this new "enlightened" worldview permeated
Western schools and governments, but America's Christian churches themselves
also are rapidly being converted to this new religious paradigm.
Most Americans have no idea this is happening. Many don't want to know. And
yet, Americans are the only power on earth strong enough to prevent global
governance from taking control of the entire planet. The August
Whistleblower shows the way back.

THE NEW PAGANISM: How Christianity is being replaced by 'green' religion,
goddess worship, globalism
I have just listened to a lecture on Mohammadism, and I have these questions
of Christians:
How do you call yourselves Christians when the disciples never called
themselves that?
Why are there four different stories of the tomb being empty? Which is the
true story?
You worship Jesus as God, but does that diminish the message he was trying
to deliver? Won't you be so busy worshipping him
that you forget to listen to him?
If God became Jesus, then how could God still be God? He would no longer be
God, he would be Jesus.
In Hebrew messiah means messenger. David was a messiah; Soloman was a
messiah; Moses was a messiah.
Given Jesus is the messiah then why don't people worship the other messiahs
as God?
If God and Mother Mary were the parents of Jesus, then they must have been
husband and wife. If they weren't husband and wife, then
God has violated his own commandments by committing adultry. Why is it fine
for God to commit adultry, but forbidden to everyone else?
If God died on the cross he could not be God, because God is immortal. How
does that make sense?
God is the trinity, then are Jesus, the Holy Ghost, and the Father the same?
How can they be co-equal if God is asking God to forgive them they know not
what they do? All Jesus has to do is say I forgive you? No need to to go to
a higher authority.
If God gave the world a sinless perfected man as sacrifice to save the
world, shouldn't we go find the same sort of man today to save the world?
Then we could kill him and the world would be saved.

When you realize why that religion seems odd to you, you'll
understand why your religion seems odd to me.
