TEXTMONDAY AFTER EPIPHANY, CYCYLE OF MATTHEW
what happened to John according to today's readings?
A. He got promoted. B. he got arrested. B. He got baptized, and decided that was a good career especially since he could get EPA grants to clean up the Jordan river.
How did jesus find out that John had been arrested?
It was in the Jerusalem Times. B. Dont be ridiculous, they didnt have newspapers in those days. C.He heard it, which illustrates the importance of listening when you hear stuff.
What did Jesus do?
He marched into the roman senate and shouted I demand justice, by the tomb of caesar agrippa.
He filed a writ of habeas corpus.
He went out into the area near Galilee and began to shout Repent for the kingdom of darkness is over.
Interestingly, the demon in the graveyard of yore was supposedly haunting the Gerasenes which was part of the A. aeolian island. B. decapolis. c. straits of Magellan.
If the devil heard that the kingdom of darkness was over he might say"A. O NO. B. O SI. C. I better come up with Plan B.
for those who are interested, the Roman demos had fallen victim to power grabbers within the memory of the birth of Jesus.
Legends of Romulus and Remus are the exact and polar opposite of Cain and Abel, the Romans were trying to justify their brutality by saying that it was sanctioned by the gods. Yahweh on the other hand was more than miffed at Cain, but still granted him pardon and asylum.
More on this, later. This material is important however, since Uriel's and particularly bologna college are a sort of anti Harvard. Harvard was establsihed to justify the break with the papacy and their motto: veritas. So we seek the truth which according to the thesis of Engelblau college, will disprove Harvard's thesis that "God is all relative." (He is of course absolutely the relative of us all)--- See for example Cornell West and his recent tiff with the administration over just these very arguments.
One of the lesser known films of Robin Williams is a WWII story called "Jacob the Liar" "Jude the Obscure" "Joe Baggadonuts."

Similarly, a lot of theologians want to say that the miracle of loaves and the fishes A. is silly. B. didnt really happen like that. C. just goes to show why the cake boss is in the sindicate.
It is up to historians to figure out whether the world wars were staged in order to eliminate the Engelbrott forever and take over the world economy, but in any event we can see where thats' gotten us so we might want to revisit the plausibility of the loaves and fishes.
Mittenvoch und der geiste der Herr en der wasser gehen.

as we along with Jesus experience the unjust arrest of the Baptist which was without due process, and how could this be if the Romans were sa legalistic? BOH anyway, let's travel with Jesus along the well built and well preserved roads of "Galilee of the Genti" (gentiles simply means, the uncircumcised) and the "decapolis" likely alexander was trying to imitate the syrians, and he passed on the power grabbing tradition right on to Tiberius, and we all know what he did. Anyways. if you want to discuss anything its intereting the whole Virdung entcrist galileo connection. I mean, galileo the astronomer/astrologer is a huge figure in renaiisance history..and in todays readings we hear that "the antichrist is the one who rejects the incarntion" so is Max weber correct? Did der geiste der Kapiatl spring from the rejection of the Engelbrott? DISCUSS. lol
today john finds out that jesus is baptizing people too and his reaction is "yeeah my cousin always wanted to be a big cheese"
does he know about the tiberius inc. hazmat dump over in that area?
lets see about those EPA funds and maybe we can split them.
FABUZZO PRISON WEEKLY, the AberKrombie gangsta mag. this is sunday so have fun. john the baptist was acccuse dof spiking the jordan with manachevitz to induce people to get drunk and then think they saw visions of God. True or false.
johns response to this was, I have been a teetotaller from my youth so put that in yer pipe and smoke it. true or false.

the holy spirit appeared in the form of a A turkey B dove C penguin.
god said he loved jesus and was pleased with him. true or false.
IF you are reading this far you may have some interest in the message of Jesus "of Nazaret" often called Christos, the true historic person, who was either God or else was not God and believed he was, in other words, he had a messiah complex. It's unusual in recorded history, that such a person who had no money, no higher education, and no policital or military backing would become so famous for so long but maybe he knew the secrets of social media.?
Anyway, the story of Jesus at the very least is a lesson that the truth is not highly valued in society. the Mob is easily swayed. The mob cried out for the death of Jesus, and to release the insane murderer Barrabas.
the same mob that had cried out to crown him king. yes that mob, unfortunately.
the Valanga di Vita was really created to help people who are affected by crime and psychosis in their families, which is a minority group that hasn't really received enough assistance in society due to shame, fear and confusion.
These people need a safe place to exist and let the Holy spirit help them tell their side of the story because otherwise they end up being forced to cover for the others and taking all the blame. like someone who goes to prison for someone else's crime. It happens a lot.
So, we need a new place to do this, both virtually and physically but God will surely help us find one. Until then, the angelic customs office will have to do.
