God is Neutral

(PASO ROBLES, Calif.) - The confusion surrounding the nature of God is due to the difference between the Universal concept of an unknowable God vs. Christianity‘s “Institutional God”

Christianity evolved out of Judaism as a cult within the Judaic tradition. Christians devised a plan to supersede Judaism with a more universal religion; the Catholic Church and Jesus [when he agreed to die for the cause] was anointed the Christ, symbol of Christianity from whom the coterie took its name.

The Republican [Party of God] and the Evangelists who control it, pretend to speak for Jesus [Christianity] in a manner that objects to anything or anyone who does not conform to its persuasion, and rudely denounces all who would prevent it from regaining control of the national government.

President George W. Bush was less the decider he claimed to be than a puppet during his Administrations until Katrina’s destruction of New Orleans opened his eyes to the fact that - “Jesus is in Heaven, all’s right with the world” - is not the cure-all his faithful believes it to be, but which Tea Party leaders imply is true when they argue in favor of their “let go, and let Jesus” philosophy.

The Gospels of Matthew: 21; 1-11 and Mark: 11; 1-10, speak of the untamed ass Jesus rode into Jerusalem as a “worthy bearer of Divinity.” Today, disciples who accept on faith the opinions of pretenders are also worthy-bearers no more aware of what they are supporting than was the ass Jesus rode.

The Conservative-base of the Republican Party is committed to its Christian-givens and dutifully accepts what it is told by Party and Evangelists who consider themselves part of an homogenized whole subject to Christianity’s Apostolic Oneness.

Democrats tend more toward the Age of Enlightenment that emerged with the Reformation, and being more open minded accommodate, rather than commit, to political circumstance.

TRUE GOD IS NEUTRAL, not a champion of the Republican Party. God doesn’t oversee functions He designed to perform independently, anymore than He does the human brain which He expects to be used intelligently. But politics, Christianity, and humans obsessed with their own agenda are disruptive of the will of the True God and impose on others, if they can, their contradictory views, as Tea Party enthusiasts hope to do in Nashville.

They blame Democrats as being cerebral contrarians to their opinion of God, when in fact their abusive obstructionism and worldly desire is the greatest threat to Americans' way of life.
