Digesting the Religious Placebo

Christianity is a medication for most of its 'patients'. Many were at church early today getting their prescription filled. Yeah...you a patient if you utilizing Christianity. Don’t be mistaken! And, they paid for the prescription by tithing. Such a waste!


Preachers often tell their sickly that they are broken; in need of saving. In fact, the preacher beats the congregate down with how they are falling short repeatedly – then he/she asks the weak soul to cough for them: cough up some money. If only mucus was accepted…

Christianity's 'antics' make the Christian feel better. Some actually say it has changed their lives. Like a wonder drug!

However, medication – true medication that’s created and sold by the greedy pharmaceutical companies - can really change a life for the better. How I wish that I did not have to acknowledge that!

Kaiser Pharmacy’s make certain that before the pill popper takes medication that they are given a plethora of information on its ‘power and affects’. They, Kaiser, actually has several facilities located around metro Atlanta that solely provides medication counsel.

I would like to believe that most conscientious people needing high blood pressure and cholesterol pills do conduct some level of RESEARCH on what they plan to swallow. Many times that is not the case considering the over medicated environment within the United States.

It is so ironic that most Christians do not do the research on what they believe in and spiritually ingest. They are taking medication (Christianity) without knowing a damn thing about its origins, its purpose, and its history with other people around the world e.g. the destruction of thousands of Pacific Islanders’ spiritual faith by missionaries who conducted their ‘mission’ in the name of God. That –in fact – is forced suicide.

Suicide is murder.

Murder is what was done to millions of people when they rejected Christianity’s medication of deceit and propaganda:

Unsurprisingly, in this clip the Catholic Church did not address their disgusting involvement in pedophilia cover-up. Typical…

The Catholic Church has destroyed lives that cannot be repaired with a two minute pompous video. That limited form of medicine will not work!

What will continue to keep Christians deathly ill is the medication that they are receiving on a weekly basis e.g. church service and bible study. The complete composition of Christianity is avoided at all cost leaving the Believer believing in only a minute version of the History of Christianity.

And, they wonder why they still sick (sinning). I will tell you why:

THE CHRISTIAN MEDICATION IS NOT WORKING. THE CHRISTIAN HAS A NON-EFFECTIVE PLACEBO.

Missing Your Savior

Saviors can come in any form especially when the one needing the saving is desperate.

Many of us, the non-saintly, were desperate when we answered that nauseating Sunday altar call. At that moment of saving, The Desperate are told that they are now welcomed into God’s divine, and distinguished fold.

The ramifications of desperation, however, do not suddenly disappear – the vices that we refer to as unwanted affects are lasting. They are like a cancerous tumor. They are malignant.

In the challenge to be anew with Jesus’ sacred blood (got that from Sunday school), they – the Saints (as if their vices do not dominate them) inform the Babes in Christ that they will “backslide”. Is that a group dance…Backslide? The backsliding creates another desperation that’s linked to the unrelenting concern about failure. Failing at being someone new, different. Church-goers classify the backsliding as fighting demons. “It be callin me.”

The “devil’s pull” (I don’t believe in NO devil) is that significant? That tough to beat? Have we asked ourselves why?

Perhaps, it is because we are trying to repair a defect that cannot be ‘fixed’. Defective means whatever that’s not working has an issue that cannot be eradicated. Thus the reason we send back electronics that stop working. Sending back - is similar to jumping in (baptism). Perhaps, it is because we are unable to acknowledge that a Savior is right before us.

Having the ability to say the following is spiritual growth that has been confined to religiosity:

“He saved me! I said, He saved me - not a dead Jesus. He/She did.”

That he/she could have been the man/women that you dismissed prior to entering your house of religion…simply because he/she was unsightly and/or smelly.

Imagine if your Believed-in Jesus approached you now...he may not look good! Additionally, if he shows up at your door with black skin, thick lips, a large nose, and nappy hair, you may turn him away…even after he says, ‘I am the Son of God, come and walk with me. I am taking you home.’ Door slapped!

I recommend that we stop ignoring our Living Saviors. God sends us one everyday. Unfortunately, you are too busy waiting on the unbelievably magnificent to occur (Rapture) – and missing your divine opportunity.

Years ago my Savior came in the form of what the Holy Book describes: black skin, thick lips, a large nose, and nappy hair. And, it (life) has been worth it since that day. No Michael Angelo image taken me anywhere! No pie in the sky believing for me!

Now, think back on your past week. Yeah……..he/she was God's instrument.

Fear...Not

Do you recall from your readings of the Hebrew Bible the moment Moses came down from Mt. Sinai to disturbingly find his people in drunken uproar and disobedient discontent? After witnessing the outlandish behavior of the people Moses in frustration threw the Law of Obedience tablets – better know as the Ten Commandments – in the direction of an idol of worship, better known as the Golden Calf. Tell me that you remember.

For me, after reading and repeatedly watching the scene in the movie, The Ten Commandments, I knew then that I had questions concerning divine authority.

Over the years, that critical questioning mechanism has intensified. Actually, it has created a storm. A good storm. In this storm, I have remained steadfast in my opinions that have become my beliefs and my rhetoric. From the hail, thunder, and lighting a book was born.

Now, as I continue on my Truth Discovery I am discovering that my commentary on religion confuses those who take the time to interface with me via Facebook, email, blog, Twitter, and other social networks. The mind boggling begins for the critic of my words with the following question:

‘Muata, do you believe in God?’

Then if I do not answer the question in the way it is wanted to be heard or read, I get:

‘Muata, be careful. God does not like disrespect. You need to be fearful of God.’

I love that last part…because I can respond with,

“I have never feared God and I do not plan to ever be afraid of God. Actually, I challenge this God each and every day. I demand He show His Face. He has not for not only me – but for countless people around the globe. So, I don’t fear Him! Why should I…because God made people pay (punished) for not fearing Him?”

Then I address my last question above with:

“Perhaps, I should fear God considering He sanctioned the murder of babies, He supported the brutalization of women, He facilitated mass ethnic cleansing, He condoned homophobia, and He worked in the despicable realm of condemnation, envy, and jealousy.”

This is the God of the Hebrew Bible and King James’s New Testament. This is also the God of so many Christians who use scare tactics to instill fear. Fear of a Being that only exists in imagination. Think about that…These Christians fear something that they have made up to revere.

Then I get again:

‘Do you believe in God, Muata?’

The response that will never change:

“Belief in God is a self created force. We imagine it. Therefore, our lives are dictated by what we believe. With this understanding one must admit/agree that our belief systems are reinforced by our imaginations. God is a Figment of Imagination. Now, does that make God not real? Not sure...the finality of thought and belief is yours to make.”

So, Moses threw those tablets not only to get the people’s attention, he threw them to make them afraid of the power he had just witnessed from God. Or, did he imagine what he saw up on that hill?
