(0935) When I’m away longer than average in the mornings, it usually meaning I’m gathering, which is the case this morning. Part of that is the next post.

6. Time for Sunday’s religious component
… and I’ve two topics … here’s the first:

This can be quite misunderstood … it’s not directed at the non-believer per se … the Hitchens C, the Dawkins and others of limited brain encompassment … it’s more for the already at least nominally believing, those who’ve crossed the first line to seeing things historically, back to ancient times, not hamstrung by illuminati or fabian modernism … those who’ve managed already to reject the Rothschild/Sabbatean thing, understanding why the west has been hoodwinked.
It’s actually at the next barrier and was precisely what the gospel accounts were about … why was JofN so down on the Pharisees and other cults? Answer … they were into externals, not internals. In a similar way, Agatha Christie had a character, Mr. satterthwaite, who was not fond of young people in packs … so concerned with externals … stunts, showmanship, postulating, looking the part.
Which brings me to South Park and the Brand Management of Ginge and Whinge … the whole thing was about playacting like a Farage. Also, remember Hyacinth Bucket? It’s also the difference between Alphas and Sigmas.
So that quote above is for those whose faith is expressed in much loud speaking, in applying human foibles, in chanting en masse, not unlike at a Nuremberg rally, in strict hierarchy at Official Festivities, at the true value between those of simple faith versus the pointy hatters making big shows in full regalua, full ritual, full graven images.
There was a youtube about Mary. Mary has been abused by one large sect and it pointed out that she was never any more than humble, not in grotesque statues people were worshipping, whilst denying that that’s what they were doing.
The two examples pointed to in the video were when JofN was on the cross, gazed down and saw Mary. The word to address her was not mother but “woman”. That original language expressed it as a compliment as in woman, mother of nations … not a blunt rebuff. She was handed to John to now look after, to take into his home. Why not the brothers? They were still lip service believers, externalists, could not be trusted.
The other example was the last time Mary was mentioned in the bible … at the last feast, where she was just one of the crowd. Does a grandmother wish to me the star of the show, doibg her sobg and dance routine? No, she just delughts in the family all being there, surrounding her, showing some reverence.
That’s how Mary needs to be reverenced, not in some hetoine worship in loud chanting.
Countless believers have explained that the payoff is protection, guidance, comfort and courage. However, the quid pro quo is danger and many times awful consequences of taking that ticket. Watch how many click out of this post now in disgust, offput by its tone.
