Lament of Cain2

You have herded my people like sheep...leading them to the slaughter, starting with the first-born. Your rod and your staff, they oppress me. You have turned your laws and statutes against me. You have abandoned me into the desert to be eaten by vultures. YOu have pillaged and plundered my peaceful settlements, killing my brothers and sisters and children, taking the young virgins for your pleasure, dividing the plunder among your officers...the high priest recieves the choicest cuts of meat and the remainder is divided among the priests to sell in the marketplace. cursed be your god who requires blood for the remission of sins. Your god is your stomach and your pride.

Technicolor Jesus

when every ride you take just carries you to nowhere
and every train you catch takes you further down the line
you can follow me but I don't know where I'm going
but I don't think it really matters all the same

When you're searching for a god beyond the staind glass windows
Technicolor Jesus don't turn water into wine
You can follow me but i don't know where i'm going
but i don't think it really matters all the same

When your reflection turns to stone behind the rails across the mirror
the bats are silent, sweeping thru the sky across the moon
the chimes of the churchbells echo thru the alley
outside on the catwalk I hear a pipers tune
You can follow me but i don't know where i'm going
but i don't think it really matters all the same
searching for a god beyond the staind glass windows
technicolor jesus don't turn water into wine

The Lord.

Lord is a word that does not appear in the original texts of the old testament...It is an old english word that means Master. King James replaced YHWY, also translated as Yahway or the german translation "Jehova".

It was the Lord's arrogance that threw Lucifer from heaven, his pride and desire to be in control that denied Adam and Eve of the gift of knowledge and it was his fear that drove them out of the garden with curses. It was the Lords thirst for blood that rejected Cain's sacrifice and demanded a blood sacrifice. It was the Lord that abandoned him to the desert, exiled him from the fertile land so his brothers could graze their sheep, It was the Lord's jealousy thru his servant Sara that exiled Hagar and Ishmeal into the desert to be eaten by the coyotes and the zopilotes. The worst and most bestial traits of human nature are the pillars of society. It was the Lord that divided the land between Abrahams 12 other sons, the sons of Sara; and proclaimed war on the sons of Ismeal, the son of Hagar, the first-born son of Abraham. The first-born was robbed of his inheritance and exiled into the barren land as a young boy. The young man and his mother sought refuge with the sons of Cain and Ishmeal became a great patriarch among his mothers people. He built cities that were sacked by the sons of Sara, his settlements were raided and plundered not even women and children were spared. It is the Lord that proclaimed genocide on these nomadic, exiled tribes that wondered the barren lands with no home. It was the Lord that proclaimed war on their cities, killing women and children with no mercy and shamelessly dividing the plunder. The sons of Ismeal along with the sons of Cain were exiled from the promised land. They roamed in the desert for centuries, persecuted and afflicted on all sides by the 12 tribes of Isreal. 14 hundred years after Jesus, a warrior prophet united his people against the oppression of the Jews, He raised an army and wrote his letters in the blood of his oppressors. He wrote a book and united his brothers in Holy Jihad, Jihad means defensive struggle. He had a vision for his people to share in the bounty of the Promised Land and live without fear and war, in peace. This was the message of Jesus Christ.

When Jesus spoke of his heavenly father, he was not reffering to Yahway, the "Lord" of the old testament. YHWY was never referred to as "Father". Jesus said to the Jews "YOUR Father is the DEVIL." YHWY is a facist, blood thirsty warmonger. Nationalism personified into a Diety. The old testament is the propaganda of a fascist regime. It is the text that contains the bi-laws of this hier-archial regime.
Jesus was crucified because he blasphemed their god and offered the people an alternative to their servile obediance to their Lord and Master that required blood for the remission of sins. His Father was Agape Love, Agape is a greek word for the highest form of Love in their language (they have more than one word for Love.) Agape Love is unconditional Love, Love without expectations and demands, True Love keeps no record of wrongs, Complete empathy, forgiveness, and understanding, the awareness of the souls unity with another. Agape Love is exact opposite, the anti-thesis of this Mytho-logical deity that required blood for the remission of sins. This is why Jesus said "Your Father is the Devil!" This is why he overturned the tables of the money changers and set the pigions loose from their cages where they were bought and sold to be slain for a God that requires blood for the remission of sins. The high priest always got the choicest cuts of the meat and the rest was distributed among the priests. This is why he spoke of the lion laying down with the lamb and a little child leading them. He said you must first become as a child to enter the kingdom of heaven, blameless and without shame, naked in the garden...he said i will tear this temple down. He was crucified because he blasphemed their god and rejected their authority. breaking the sabbeth laws and eating grain that was reserved for the priests...his first miricle was turning water that was sanctified as holy water by the priests to be used for their purpose, into wine for a wedding party. Jesus was crucified as a rebel and a dissenter, a friend of gentile sinners, the outcasts of society, the infedels and unbelievers.

Whether he is alive or dead is irrelevant. What matters is his teachings. HE was not merely a self-rightous martyr but a revolutionary teacher. He lived and died for what he believed in. He believed in something beyond himself. He was as a finger pointing to the moon. A free thinker, an emancipator of his people, he came to set the captives free and give sight to the blind. He profaned the temple, broke the sabbath laws, turned the holy water into wine, overturned the tables of the money changers, and called their father the devil. He was crucified for his blasphemey.

The Empire was losing power because their were so many people following Jesus and losing faith in the institution, they conspired to kill him, Saul was one of those militant defenders of the faith that sought to kill him and his followers, Believing that his message was dangerous, but had a change of heart and spent the rest of his days as Paul, and wrote a new testament, the foundation of the Christian faith. Paul was confronted with a view point that blew his mind and spent the rest of his days trying to reconcile his deeply entrenched jewish beliefs with the teachings of Jesus. He basically started organized churches and spread his teachings far and wide, He paved the Roman road to salvation...Christianity would more appropriatly be named "Paul-ianity". Paul does not dispute the authority of YWHWY the god that requires blood for the remission of sins. The teachings of Paul place the emphasis on the blood of Jesus, rather that on his teachings, Paul, once again brings the revolution full circle into a new orthedoxy where a blood sacrifice is nessary. Paul distorted the message of Jesus and created a new orthedoxy, placing the emphasis on his spilled blood. He was obvoiously brainwashed by this bloody regime.

Jesus was not a God in flesh any more than you or me. He just came to the realization that he was just part of a larger whole. He awakened to the consiousness of being a part of a universal cosmical soul. His eyes were opened and he saw thru the illusions of the world, He was endowed with the knowledge of good and evil, He was as wise as a serpent...He called out the evil men corrupted by greed and hate and pride, defied them as they tried to use their power to create war and possess and control the Land and have dominion over the beasts of the field and the birds of the air.

The Devil sits atop his throne he has placed above the earth and her children. The Devil claims possession over the earth and her bounty,enslaving her children,they are forced to earn their bread by the sweat of their brow.Forbidding them to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, their sacred medicines that are grown in the soil are up-rooted and burned, they are forbidden their sacrements and prescribed poisen for their ailments that they obtained serving under their tyrannical regime.

The day of judgement is nigh. You will be cast from your throne and you will slither on your belly in the dust...and I will crush your head with my heel.
