They cry out with deceit and make dance like the world

The gullible falls prey easily, led to the abattoir

They believe an heaven on earth before God’s coming

They have no idea this will be their only heaven



Somebody give Jesus a wiper, they scream

Your father in heaven is rich, so you should be rich, they say

The poor in spirit, they heavily mock

They know not that they have lost it



Wake up, you blind

Who told you heavenly race is milk and honey on earth

You accumulate wealth on earth

Not knowing that, that wealth is your talent

And the master will ask you on the final day how you used it



How did you use your talent, the Master will ask

Did you use it to replenish the selfish man on the pulpit

Or do you use it to bring hope to the poor and widows

Thereby leading them to Christ





They quickly forget what Jesus said about the rich man entrance

One likened to the entrance of a camel into the eye of a needle

Do you say Lord Jesus is a liar

Or do you twist the saying as being idiomatic



You can’t serve two masters

Don’t let prosperity preachers deceive you

Study to show thyself approved

For the HolySpirit is the best teacher



I sum up with Matthew 19:16-30

Darling Jesus wants your ALL

Quit philosophical and men’s reasoning

Keep quiet, Pick your cross and Follow Christ

Aptly called Pulpit Pimps

It's Pulpit Pimps And Bling Bling Theology.

Gees , I wonder why there is so much fraud associated religion and faith ?

Hhhhmm!

Could it be because it comes from the most primitive, the most irrational and the most selfish parts of the human psyche ?

Fraud is human because we are intuitively selfish and not a product of religion. As an amateur septic(sic),why would fraud bother you? What is your moral compass? Guesswork?

Well, fraud bothers me because when one person is defrauded, I am also defrauded.

As for my moral compass, that's easy.
You see, I continously subdue the primitive aspects of my human psyche, the primordial nature, the irrational, fearful, and ironically, the religious.

Higher reason is my moral compass.

You tried to appear not thrown off while apparently you were , and its very obvious . "Well " which you began your sentence with &..."that's easy" before you stated your moral compass , proved so .

You've always maintained that Christianity was founded on fraud and pastors are fraudulent

Whatever promotes social harmony and social cohesion is always more preferable than what doesn't.

You also need to demonstrate 'higher reasoning'. Take death. Why is it that there is so much death among the religious?

Duh, NUMBERS! It goes without saying that if most are religious then most deaths will be registered among them

Your problem, dear young man, is your tendency to half-think. Seriously.

The fact that I mentioned " parts of the human psyche" in my post should have made it obvious, I'm case you didn't know, that a human mind , the human psyche consists of two dynamic and opposite hemispheres.

One is older, from an evolutionary point of view, more primitive, irrational, fearful. This part likes to preserve the status quo. This is also the seat of religion.

The other, more recently evolved ophthalmic region is the seat of reason, that constantly challenges and tries to overide the primitive impulses.

So, your level of humaness is directly corrolated with whichever region of your brain dominates.

Because religion comes from the limbic , more primitive part of the brain, religious people tend to be more irrational, fearful, selfish ,greedy and more fraudulent.

Simple science.

Another half-thinker.

Duuhhhhh!

Religion is not a vocation.
Religion puts itself on high moral pedestals.

Religion pretentiously portrays itself on lofty moral ideals.

Therefore, statistically, religious sheeple are not supposed to register on the moral radar for fraud or any immoral acts.
Duuhhhhh!

Do you really need me to educate you on this?

Atheists are congenial hypocrites. Here is why;

1. Atheists are not necessarily immoral, in fact some of the best Negroes with the kindest heart I have known are serial staunch atheists

2. Atheism is sort of amoral in that it offers zero basis or rationale for OBJECTIVE morality

True atheists openly admit there is no LOGICAL BASIS for purpose,meaning or morality and they readily adopt a philosophy of MEANINGLESSNESS.

Hypocritical atheists (and they are the bulk) subscribe to morality without any reason. This is where our amateur septic(sic) plaetton falls with his theory of 'higher reason' precipitating aggressive pursuit of 'whatever promotes social harmony' because it is 'more preferable'

Dont flatter yourself

Anyone can be lackadaisical towards his work , that does not automatically translate to the work being boring

Anyone can pose as a pastor , priest to engage in fraud , but does that automatically mean the Religion is about defrauding people ? Clearly Christianity frowns as such vice as fraud . You know this .

Repeat; the epitome of hypocrisy is subscribing to morality within an amoral system without any logical basis

A better question is,what is love? What is the PURPOSE of love?
