Katherine Frisk – The whole Bible is two completely different philosophies put into one book and people are expected to believe both are one and the same thing, when they are not. It is like saying living on a commune is the same as private property ownership. And you are expected to believe both are one and the same. I am of course referring to my recent article. Greece, Democracy and Original Sin
That is why which ever bias you may have, you can find the relevant quote, and the counter quote to suit the argument. But the question nobody asks is “What do I believe,? What do I choose? What is a lie and what is the truth?” As someone once said:
You cannot serve two masters, for you will surely betray the one for the other.
Often, if we are honest and answer these questions we very often won’t like the answers, because they will expose our true nature covered in a thin veneer of righteous indignation.
Lies make society more acceptable to itself. 9/11 being a prime example, as is Syria and Ukraine today. These lies give righteous indignation to bombing Afghanistan and then setting up a lucrative heroin industry. The lies of ISIS/ISIL give righteous indignation to a no fly zone to completely destroy Syria in the interest of a pipeline from Qatar to the Med. The lies of a “Russian invasion” of eastern Ukraine give righteous indignation to NATO moving into Ukraine and right up to Russia’s borders to start WW3. How will this history of lies be written 2,000 years from now? And will truth be interspersed with a good dose of mind control, propaganda and deception?
