“America…where war became peace and genocide patriotism” - Nikki Giovani
After centuries of lies, from the White/Christian/Zionist West, questioning Indigenous/African Americans’ very humanity (treating people like cattle), holding up their cultures and beliefs to ridicule; using the Bible (now Torah) as justification for genocide (in the U.S. and now in Palestine)- using the same childish and irrational statements about “God gave us this land” - only the ignorant and willfully naïve would think that we would shout the praises of such barbaric behavior, by such uncivilized people. Proof of the subtitle is the 25 standing ovations by the US Congress for the July 2024 speech given by the convicted war-criminal (convicted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) of Genocide) Bibi “Satanyahu”.
Now, as The Heritage Foundations’ Project 2025 prepares to bring about The American Inquisition, much like The Spanish Inquisition (see notes) where religious faith and loyalty to Christianity (Zionism) is a litmus test for value of one’s humanity; for employment, especially government employment, school funding and even health care will be allocated only with an adherence to Biblical precepts and nonsense turned into laws.
Media Matters states: “Project 2025 aims to put Christianity at the center of American government and society by turning a Biblical worldview into federal law, often employing Christian nationalist talking points and narratives to support its right-wing policy proposals.” In addition, “Project 2025 is partnered with the Center for Renewing America, the primary Christian nationalist political organization in the U.S.”
It is first important to note that the words, God, Jesus and Christianity are not mentioned in The Constitution. What is taking place in the U.S. now is in direct opposition to, and not at all what Founding Fathers like Thomas Jefferson had in mind. Jefferson, like many other of the early leaders of the U.S., were committed to what is commonly called a secular state. Basing his views on the establishment clause of the First Amendment, Jefferson emphasized that there should not just be a “separation of church and state,” but that there should be “a wall of separation” that clearly limited the involvement of religious denominations and religious leaders in matters of national governance.
Well, in the United States, that “wall” has become wide-open, ceiling to floor double-doors, admitting all manner of religious zealots, cultists, evangelicals, preachers, rabbis, imams, etc. For example, this absolutely idiotic, stupid question that Republican Congressman, Rick Allen asked Columbia University President, Nemat Shafik:: “Are you familiar with Genesis 12:3”? He goes on, “It was a covenant that God made with Abraham: that covenant was real clear, ‘if you bless Israel, I will bless you. If you curse Israel, I will curse you.’ You don’t want to be cursed by God, do you?” And they were and are yet being blessed with billions of dollars in U.S. citizens’ taxpayer money.
I would respond to Congressman Allen by asking if he’s familiar with the quote John 8:44 found in The Bible, in which Jesus states to the Jewish people, “You (Jews) are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.”
China’s litmus test for government service is the very opposite of the U.S. That is, an “ordinary” Chinese citizen cannot be a member of the Chinese Government if he or she has joined “any religion.” Now this, to me, is the pure beauty and absolute essence of the Separation of Church and State.
The Government’s view is that religion is a temporary historical phenomenon that will disappear as societies advance. Although this stance has not changed in the seven decades since the state’s founding, policies on the ground have constantly evolved. For example, the current constitution of the People’s Republic of China, adopted in 1982, states that ordinary Chinese citizens enjoy “freedom of religious beliefs.” They cannot, however, bring their religious beliefs into the Chinese Government. America is not just “going backward” it is “running backwards” with Project 2025. Back to the 12th century.
Note:
The Holy Inquisition began in 1184 under Pope Lucius III. It is the story of how the church transformed Jesus’ message of loving one’s neighbor and turning the other cheek into a doctrine of murder, pillage and plunder:
- In the interest of saving your soul, a coal brazier will be placed beneath your bare feet, slowly roasting them. Because you don’t believe that Jesus is the Son of God, your flesh will be continually larded with fat to keep it from burning too quickly. Or you may be bound to a bench, with a cauldron fill with mice placed upside-down on your bare abdomen. With the requisite application of heat to the iron, the mice will begin to burrow into your belly in search of an exit.
- We know how the “Evangelicals” love the book of Deuteronomy that enjoins them to murder homosexuals and anyone in their midst, even members of their own families who profess sympathy for foreign gods (Deuteronomy 17:12-13).
- More good-ole Jewish compassion and love: If you hear in one of the towns “Let us go and serve other gods…you must put the inhabitants of that town to the sword (today, for example in Palestine, that would be bombs, missiles and killer drones); you must lay it under the curse of destruction – the town and everything in it…offering it all to Yahweh your God.”(Deuteronomy 13:12-16).
