Brothers and sisters, I want to tell you about the
God of What's Happening Right Now. Remember, unlike other Gods who aren't always
PC, and who think that They can tell humans what is right or wrong, the God of
What's Happening Right Now is always trendy and does what governments and society
want. |
If there is a God, would he be the God of What's
Happening Right Now? Maybe. But, if so, He wouldn't be much of a God. In fact,
such a God would be little more than a ventriloquist's dummy. Nevertheless, that's
the God that seems to take over in many religions and churches once the founders
and early leaders of these religions and churches die and are replaced with weaker
souls who want to avoid conflict with the state or the larger society. |
|
Joseph Smith said the above to justify the fact
that the revelations he claimed to have received from God were unpopular in society
at large. As often happens with founders or leaders of churches and religions
that deviate from whatever is happening in society at the moment, Smith was persecuted
and, in his case, was eventually killed for his beliefs. Such persecution also
happened with the Old Testament prophets, with Jesus, and with Muhammed as well
as with many others. |
To escape further persecution and to practice their
religion "according to the dictates of their own conscience," the Mormons
moved away from civilization and settled in Utah. For a time, they held to the
teachings revealed to them by Smith and were true to their religion. |
An important part of these Mormon teachings was plural marriage--polygamy--whose
revelation was allegedly received on July 12, 1843. This revelation was supposed
to be everlasting, and if anyone rejected it, they would not be permitted into
heaven: "For behold, I reveal unto you a new and everlasting covenant;
and if ye abide not that covenant, then are ye damned; for no one
can reject this covenant and be permitted to enter into my glory. . . ."
Smith apparently had at least 27 wives and some historians claim that he had many
more. |
|
Not all Mormons believed this new revelation was
real and they split off from the main church and continued to practice polygamy.
Their genetic, and sometimes just intellectual, descendants still do so today.
And, also today, mostly in rural parts of Utah and Arizona, those Mormons who
still hold to the original teachings of the church are being persecuted even though
they're mostly just minding their own business and not bothering anyone. Sadly,
many of those doing the persecution are Mormons who are members of the main stream
Mormon Church of What's Happening Right Now that rejected the doctrine revealed
through Joseph Smith in favor of the one revealed by Woodruff. |
The Mormons also originally had a belief that non-whites
couldn't hold the priesthood in the church. Since most Mormon men are priests
of one type or another, this amounted to the church being an all white church.
Then, What's Happening Right Now Mormon leaders announced a revelation on June
9, 1978 that got rid of that belief. And, it was also just "coincidentally"
what the secular government in Washington, D.C., and the larger community, had
been pushing in regard to race mixing. Today, as a result of this latest revelation,
Mormons are actively recruiting non-whites to be members of the church. The effects
of this can be seen in the rising crime rate in Utah as that state is now being
flooded with non-white Third World immigrants who have heard the call of Mormon
missionaries in their native Third World nations. It can also be seen in the darkening
of the Mormon church as more non-whites join it. |

Those who consider themselves as the true Mormons,
and who still follow the teachings of Joseph Smith, probably wouldn't be surprised
if the main stream Mormon Church of What's Happening Right Now soon had a new
revelation saying that homosexual marriages are now what the big guy in the sky
wants. "For behold, that stuff about men marrying women? Holy Cow, I was
just kidding like I was when I said you should practice polygamy and only let
white men be priests. Heck, men should marry men and women should marry women
and no one should practice polygamy and non-whites should hold the priesthood."
Interestingly, the government in the form of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial
Court just said that homosexual marriages are okay in that state. |
|
There was a recent odd twist in another church that
hints at the type of problems religious people can have when they try to respond
to what government and society want at any moment. This doesn't quite fit with
the prior examples, but it does present another instance of how things can get
screwy when religious leaders jump on the What's Happening Right Now bandwagon. |

Once the black congregation was "forced"
to integrate with the white congregation in the formerly all white congregation's
church building, the black church building was sold and the money was apparently
supposed to be used for the new combined black/white congregation. Instead, the
money was used to build another church building further away, which then became
virtually all white and the new home of whites who were fleeing their former all
white congregation that had been integrated. Soon, the integrated congregation
became all black again and was as poor as a church mouse. Had the church been
a government institution such as schools, the problem (at least it's a problem
to blenders) of natural self-segregation caused by people gravitating to people
like themselves-- their own kind--probably would have been solved by busing in
church members. Not being chained to the pews, the whites fled. Of course, the
reality was that the whites were just going to where they felt comfortable, as
is their right in our society. |
Information about the black, then black/white, then
black again congregation apparently all started to come to light a few years ago
when Executive Presbyter Boyd Stockdale, started investigating why the black folks,
in the formerly black church that had become the black and white church and then
the black church again, were hostile toward him. He concluded that there was resentment
because of the past and that it was white racism that had ruined the congregation.
Here's how Stockdale characterized this to a local newspaper: "They [earlier
church leaders] were just trying to integrate a segregated church, because Martin
Luther King said it was a good thing. This just shows that we sometimes do racist
things, even when we think we're doing something anti-racist." |
Tsk, tsk. The What's Happening Right Now church leaders
in the past apparently had believed the What's Happening Right Now dream that
blacks and whites just wanted to be together and that if barriers were removed
they would be. In this regard, it helps to remember that it's an article of faith
among many white people that blacks and all other non-white people are just white
people with different paint jobs and that almost all whites have a subconscious
racism and just don't like those non-white paint jobs, but that once whites mix
with blacks and other non-whites they'll see the inner whiteness of the blacks
and non-whites. It just didn't work. When free will (another religious concept)
entered the picture, many whites just left the integrated congregation. |
To atone for their past "sin" of racism,
which they once thought was anti-racism, the white Presbyterians are now donating
time and money to fix up the now all black, but formerly black and white, and
prior to that the all white, church building so the blacks can have their own
all black church building and congregation just as they had prior to 1953. Is
your head spinning a little? |
Why should whites care about any of the above? The
answer is that religion can be important to the survival or destruction of an
entire people or a subgroup of the larger group. If the religion has correct beliefs,
it can be tremendous force for good. If it has incorrect beliefs, it can be a
tremendous force for destruction. Religions can outlast nations, governments,
and political movements. They can supply identity to their adherents. They can
provide unity and fellowship. They can provide adherents with emotional strength.
They can give believers unassailable truths based on revelations, and they can,
in hundreds of other ways, fill the basic needs of the adherents. And, all of
these things should be considered by whites with a higher level of genetic consciousness
on this mad planet that seems hell bent in wiping out the white race. |
Without getting into lengthy logical and religious arguments
at this point, let it be said that some whites believe that all things, including
religious revelations, must be examined for the effect they will have on white
people. Those who believe this, hold that anything that has the effect of harming
or diminishing or limiting the number of white people in the world or that will
cause white people to mix and mate with non-whites is evil and must be rejected.
On the other hand, these people believe that anything that has the effect of increasing
or expanding the number of white people in the world or which has the effect of
making whites "more" white, is good. |
