Christianity QA » Christian Church » Regarding alt.evil and the colonization thereof
Question:
Did you know that if one were convicted of witchcraft in the dark ages, one could avoid burning at the stake by confession? Then you got the much more merciful sentence of strangulation. That number is small compared to the vicious campaigns of the christian church against the non-believers. The only weak dogmatic authority these days is christianity. Perdition is a christian belief and has no real foundation for the realist of today.
The more I look at all of this, the more I am convinced of the role in the Church in suppressing so much knowledge and devlopment of society. The immense knowledge that was held by the ancient peoples and stored in places like the Library in Alexandria, that has been lost for hundreds of years, and we have only recently been able to recover. This is one of the great tragedies of our race. __ Profit Zarquon.

Not as many as those who spoke out against or offended the local friar. And now you jest all about this.
I speak of it; hardly a jest, is it? The option was real, in the catholic tradition that a body burned or destroyed while still alive could not hope to be resurrected on Judgement Day. Only whole bodies decomposed naturally could be brought back, according to dogma at the time. Even today, a catholic will not opt for cremation after death, under pain of post mortem excommunication. And being a christian yourself Mr. Miller Jr., you now claim to be the head of alt.evil?
I know many facets of evil, and am well qualified to relate and comment on them, and to dissect the motives and reasons behind the actions and the people who committed them. Do you by your opposition agree with the dogmatic authorities that discussing evil is somehow in itself a -shall I say it- a sin? Strange position for a satanist to take, no? What a hypocite and what hypocrisy to your own christianity.
’tis not I say. You’re confused? Here, I’ll spell it out: If one does not discuss evil, then how does one defend against it? One cannot destroy one’s enemy by claiming ignorance of him, nor by blindly depending on an equally weak human dogmatic authoritiy; either will lead you down the same path towards perdition. — TJ "Spark" Miller jr.

Ahh, yes.. I almost forgot the Crusades completely, but we were discussing witchcraft, no? And now you jest all about this. I speak of it; hardly a jest, is it?

Only whole bodies decomposed naturally could be brought back, according to dogma at the time. Even today, a catholic will not opt for cremation after death, under pain of post mortem excommunication. The catholic church does now allow cremations. In a attempt to update its old outdated dogma.
That’s what I just said. And being a christian yourself Mr. Miller Jr., you now claim to be the head of alt.evil? I know many facets of evil, and am well qualified to relate and comment on them, and to dissect the motives and reasons behind the actions and the people who committed them. Do you by your opposition agree with the dogmatic authorities that discussing evil is somehow in itself a -shall I say it- a sin? Strange position for a satanist to take, no? Only a closed minded brain washed individual would consider a open topic as sin.
Ahh, but ther are things considered universally repugnant to civilization, and therein lies the paradox…are such things as killing against the victim’s will to be not considered a "sin"? While it is true that the word is well-worn, even to the point of uselessness, there are basic things that fall well within it’s bounds. While such things as munching on pork are considered a "sin" to the Islamic and Jewish communities, such things as killing an innocent child will be frowned upon by nearly everyone, and the repercussions are usually not very good for the one who would commit such a thing. But then christians always twist and contort words to satisfy there needs in suppressing humankind to herd mentality.
Everyone contorts words; that’s not the point of contention. Raw coherent fact cannot be ignored however, no matter which way a word is used. As for a "herd mentality", even the Church of Satan(tm) uses similar methods of control, lest the priest have no power over the congregation, and would lose his stature. Even among atheists, such things as government and acedemic authority ‘keeps the proles in line’, so to speak. Look at the USSR… Staling used many forms of control to keep the proletariat under a herd mentality without even breathing the word ’sin’ or making mention of God. Humans are by and large herd animals, with a lust for the ever-elusive ’security’ and the desire to let others do the hard and controversial thinking. It is the rare individual who breaks these bonds, but it does not have to mean losing one’s religion to do so. For example, I am perfectly capable of reading scripture found in The Bible, The Talmud, and The Quran, and of drawing my own conclusions, as each person must. The only weak dogmatic authority these days is christianity. Perdition is a christian belief and has no real foundation for the realist of today.
That depends on whether you refer to the establishment(tm) or of individual belief. — TJ "Spark" Miller jr. Spark’s Comprehensive Guide to Flame http://www.users.nwark.com/~tjmiller/index.html Diplomacy is the art of saying "Nice Doggie" until you can find a rock -Wynn Catlin
