Planning For A New Pearl Harbour

The Burning Of Rome
Nero burned Rome so that he could blame the Christians and get rid of them.

> "Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all people of the world will plead with world leaders to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world government." - Henry Kissinger in an address to the Bilderberg meeting at Evian, France, May 21, 1992. Transcribed from a tape recording made by one of the Swiss delegates.

In January 1993 a document from Dick Cheney called "Defense Strategy for the 1990s" called for the United States to assert its military superiority to prevent the emergence of a new superpower rival. It was based on a 1992 classified internal policy statement titled "Defense Planning Guidance".

The Burning Of The Reichstag
The Reichstag building burned on February 27, 1933. Marinus Van der Lubbe was caught and tortured by the Gestapo. He confessed to the crime but denied that he was part of a communist plot. Hitler used this as an excuse to get rid of the communist party.
Operation Northwoods
| Just in case you think we are incapable of such behavior. Operation Northwoods was a 1962 Pentagon proposal to stage phony terror attacks on US citizens to provide a pretext to invade Cuba.

These ideas were resurrected in a new report by another Cheney-Rumsfeld organization, the (PNAC) Project for the New American Century in 2000. Entitled, "Rebuilding America's Defenses: Strategy, Forces and Resources" it concludes the following:

> The United States needed a catastrophe, "a new Pearl Harbor" to jump start the blueprint for military and economic world dominance.

September 11.
On September 11, 2001 four passenger planes were hijacked and flown into American buildings. Three reached their target. Six weeks later the U.S.A. Patriot act and military tribunals were rushed into laws, changing the face of the American justice system forever. The government experts claimed that they never knew that this was possible.
Hogwash! Even I could see what was coming after the bombing of the navy ship the USS Cole in October 2000.
A simple systems analysis drill would have demonstrated the possibility. By taking the three basic environments of air, land and sea one could have seen the escalating pattern of suicide bombings was based on using the transportation systems from each environment as a weapon against important targets. Truck bombings, bombings of navy ships and government buildings close to airports. All spelled disaster.
Not being evil, even my mind would not conceive of passenger planes. I thought it could have been less risky to hijack package delivery planes.

But Was It Allowed?

The Cosmic War
Rather than viewing this as a great conspiracy, I see this as the clouding of human minds so that the cosmic war can progress by leaps and bounds. Through one event, and a subsequent war that somehow went terribly wrong, the whole world is caught in a trap. The events are so bizarre that no group can fix it. We are all being propelled forward into one set of idiotic actions for another. We cannot get out and we cannot get off. We are plagued with failure after failure and criminal activity. In this atmosphere of fear we traded freedoms and engaged in brutality. We believe with all our hearts that we are protecting ourselves from terrorism. And, that this single situation justifies our actions. But, in one day, a cosmic terror will grip us and we will use these new laws and this new attitude to execute the kind of brutality that we still believe that we are incapable of doing. Every action and setback keeps fulfilling prophecy or sets up the situation to rapidly fulfill a future prophecy. I have never seen anything like it.

The reason why some people say that this event was allowed and others say it was planned by the United States is because four aircraft went missing and were joy riding for two hours and no military aircraft was launched to intercept. The F-16s are supposed to be deployed if planes are missing over three minutes. Well, one missing plane and no deployment of an F-16 could be attributed to lazy employees. Four missing passenger airlines and no response gives teeth to the rumors.
So it could have been allowed to grab powers and legally create a scenario that could remove civil rights. But it would have taken a massive conspiracy to do so. This type of conspiracy usually fails. So, looking at their performance in other matters I would say that they are plagued by persistent incompetence.

Case: The Burning of the Reichstag.
The Reichstag building burned on February 27, 1933. On February 28, 1933 the "Protective Custody" law was created. It gave authorities the right to arrest on suspicion of criminal activity and to incarcerate indefinitely without the benefit of a lawyer or a trial. Marinus Van der Lubbe was caught and tortured by the Gestapo. He confessed to the crime but denied that he was part of a communist plot.
Without any other evidence, Hitler used this as an excuse to arrest the leaders of the German Communist party. He even wanted them killed that night. He also used this as an excuse to assume powers as a dictator.
Van der Lubbe was convicted and executed on January 10, 1934. All the others arrested were acquitted. There was no evidence. So, outraged at the results of the trial (he did not get the verdict that he wanted), Hitler decided that any future treason cases would be taken from the Supreme court and given to a newly created People's court so that they could guarantee the "right" verdict.

The Laws Of The Nazi Empire.
In addition, they ended several civil liberties under the claim that they were protecting the people.

- The Dictator. January 30, 1933. Hitler was elected as chancellor of Germany.
  The Federal court system was stacked in favor of conservatism.
- No Right to Assemble or Express Opinions. February 4, 1933. Hitler convinced the president to sign a law that authorized the police to prohibit public meetings and publications that "endangered public security".
  Telecommunications laws gave the media companies to five conservative owners.
- The Opportunity. February 27, 1933. Reichstag burned. Communists became the enemies.
  The September 11, 2001 attacks. Al-Qaeda became the enemy that required these laws.
- Protective Custody. February 28, 1933 Decree. It suspended civil liberties. A false emergency was created after the parliament building burned. People now believe that Hitler planned it.
  The law authorized the police to make arrests on suspicion of criminal activity and incarcerated without benefit of legal counsel or trial.
  The Patriot Act took away liberties, set up military tribunals and allowed indefinite detention.
- Enabling Act. March 23, 1933. It gave Hitler absolute power to make laws for four years. These laws would be above the constitution.

  > ARTICLE 1. In virtue of paragraph 2, article 48, of the German Constitution, the following is decreed as a defensive measure against communist acts of violence , endangering the state: Sections 114, 115, 117, 118, 123, 124, and 153 of the Constitution of the German Reich are suspended until further notice. Thus, restrictions on personal liberty [114], on the right of free expression of opinion, including freedom of the press [118], on the right of assembly and the right of association [124], and violations of the privacy of postal, telegraphic, and telephonic communications [117], and warrants for house-searches [115], orders for confiscation as well as restrictions on property [153], are also permissible beyond the legal limits otherwise prescribed.

  It was supposed to expire on April 1, 1937 but it never did because he passed more laws to stay in power.
  The patriot act was supposed to expire but it was enhanced and made permanent.
  Bush uses signing statements to give himself absolute power. The attitude is now, "if the president does it, then it is legal".
- No Elections or Political Parties. July 14, 1933. Article 1 of the law against the establishment of parties says that "The National Socialist German Workers Party constitutes the only political party in Germany".
  A majority in both houses ensures that the minority party cannot start criminal investigations, hold meetings or pass laws.
- Propaganda and Anti-Semitic Violence. He made Josef Goebbels the Minister of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. He also established a boycott committee. They terrorized the Jews.
  The media companies act as the cheer leaders of the government.
- Law Against the Overcrowding of German Schools and Institutions of Higher Learning. April 25, 1933. This law to prevent Jews from attending school and over 400 laws were made to terrorize the Jews.
- Nuremberg Laws. 1935. Legalized anti-Semitism.

Other decrees created new federal agencies. The Storm Troopers (SA) and the Special Security (SS).
Hitler could immediately remove freedom of expression. The Republicans had to take a different tactic. They will move against reporters and websites who criticize and filter the news. They have successfully done most of this through pressure from media owners against their employees. Next they will use social pressure by labeling such information as treason. Finally, they will claim that this is necessary for the war on terror, even if it means creating another fake emergency and claiming that it was the leaks and criticisms that made the enemy bold.
This is a summary of the rights lost and power grabbed in the beginning.

Changes | Item | Germany | United States
--- | --- | --- | ---
Civil Rights | Constitution guaranteeing basic civil rights | Enabling Act. Nuremburg Laws | Patriot Act. Military Trials
Freedom of the press | None | Suppression of news by 5 media owners
Free expression of opinion | Prohibit public meetings and publications | No protection for whistle blowers, threatening reporters
Right of assembly and association | Prohibit public meetings | Preventing peaceful demonstrations, exclusion from public meetings
Right to privacy of postal and electronic communications | Protective Custody | Spying on mail and all phone calls
Protection against unlawful searches and seizures | Protective Custody | Patriot Act. Wiretaps without a warrant
Individual property rights | Nuremburg Laws | The revised laws of eminent domain give private property to rich private developers
Government Structure | Federal States' right of self government | None | -
Opposition group | Only one party allowed | Majority party ends all access by minority party
Absolute Ruler | Dictator for Life | With "sign in" statements Bush exempts himself from laws
Confinement | Ghettos. Concentration camps. Labor camps. Cattle cars | Guantanamo Bay, secret prisons
New Agencies | Domestic spying and terrorization | SS and SA. Boycott committee | Homeland Security, National Security Service, TIPS, Minuteman Project
Preemptive War | We will not start a war | Europe | Iraq and probably Iran
Torture | No cruel, degrading or inhuman treatment | Gas chambers, starvation, slavery | Torture, slavery in Marinas and permanent under class being created
Private Businesses | Cruelty to others to help businesses | Slavery, medical experiments | January 2007. Medical experiments, once outlawed for abuses, now allowed on prisoners.

This pattern looks disturbingly familiar.
September 11, the Patriot Act, Homeland Security and there is talk of a a new domestic intelligence counter-terrorism agency that is a cross between the FBI and the CIA.

No Checks and Balances
What is amazing in this process is that the system of checks and balances does not appear to be working in a legal system that I once believed was almost perfect. The opposition party, the press and the courts will not or cannot function. A fundamental flaw in the system is that an unjust law can victimize the innocent until it is challenged in the supreme court. This process can take years and is expensive. So only the rich will benefit. Justices now routinely make decisions based on their personal or religious bias and often their economic bias. Corporations and powerful organizations now benefit. Real justice is impossible as long as imperfect human beings are in charge.

Update (2005). This agency is now a reality. The National Security Service was created by executive order on June 29, 2005. It is a division of the FBI that is answerable to no one or to the constitution. So the federal police (FBI) can apply tactics to its citizens that it does on "terrorists". The name sounds too much like the Nazi SS. Unfortunately, the powerful are using these agencies to spy on any group that does not believe in some of the policies. People like the Quakers who believe in peace and have no intention of bombing the potted plants on the White House lawn. Hitler used the SS to go after his political opponents.

The premise of this article is that we are being manipulated into exchanging our civil rights for security in one form or another. All people want freedom from terror. Some people want freedom from immorality. Both intend to use the legal system as the weapon that will guarantee them victory.
The question is, will we exchange one form of terrorism for a more deadly one? When we use civil rights to capture our current terrorists are we creating an environment where another kind of terrorism will emerge? We cannot fight this one when we have relinquished our only true weapons. Our freedom.

A Trojan Horse.

The Noose Is Tightening
| Entertainment
Global Legal Systems | Patriot Act Corpus Juris Hate Speech Laws | Increased Catholic presence Ownership by a Few Government influence Censorship | News Media
--- | --- | --- | ---
ICC | The Next Dark Ages
Credit System and Networks Labor Laws Sunday Laws
| Economic Systems

The next dark ages are being introduced by the careful control of several critical systems.

1. Economic. They will be used to track and identify and enforce an economic boycott in the end. The European labor laws are now being used to enforce religious Sunday laws.
2. Media. They are increasingly being owned by a few giant individuals and corporations. So they can censor and manipulate the news and entertainment the public receives. Already, they have been shifting to an introduction of Catholicism in the network dramas through the use of Catholic characters. The vast majority of those who shape our political opinions are Catholic.
3. Legal. Globally, laws are increasingly trying to stop all Protestant efforts to proselytize, and the penal system has defined a terrorist in such broad categories that they will ultimately include anyone who preaches a nonviolent gospel that will be classified as hatred under the expanded definition of hatred and its potential consequences.

The world is rapidly evolving towards a one world legal system which is modeled after the Inquisition. Many people are not concerned about their eroding civil rights, because of fear of terrorism. And because they falsely assume that these laws do not coddle real criminals and that they will guarantee us peace, justice and safety. With this thinking we captured farmers, cab drivers and barbers and began torturing them in Iraq, even though Iraq never attacked the United States, nor were they involved with Al-Qaeda.
Inquisition laws do not discriminate between the evidence and the innocent or the guilty.
All are guilty. Evidence can be achieved by torture. Evidence no longer leads to an arrest. We will arrest first then find the evidence.
The collapse of a free society is integral to the plans of two separate globalist forces. One wants to be the dominant military, economic and political power. The other wants to dominate all world powers so that it can enforce a global religion. One is the United States of America, the other is the Roman Catholic church.
Think I am wrong?
The crusades were ordered because the "unity of Europe" was threatened. The religious unity.
The Spanish Inquisition was called to unite Spain under the Catholic church.
The Roman Inquisition was called to suppress the Protestant heresy. The church is promoting the belief that heresy is the cause of social revolution. Such a revolution jeopardizes the plans of the political globalists.
So a darker force is behind these new laws. It intends to piggy back its goals on top of the political globalists. The emerging global religion and government will use these laws to justify their tyranny. When they have the legal means by which they will persecute, they will soon invent the crimes that will target the victims. Through the concepts of "public unity", "racism" and "hate speech" these groups are suppressing all religious speech that turns the light on their sinister plans. Because, lurking behind the war cry of obliterating "hate speech" is a tyrant hiding its activities and waiting to suppress all free expression and thought by implementing religious laws in the entire world.

Civil Rights
Civilized laws have always guaranteed certain legal rights. They were based on the fact that the people would not have justice perverted if they could participate in the judicial process. Also, it protected the lone accused against the vast array of forces on the side of the government. Otherwise, the powerless masses could not hope to defend themselves against a state with unlimited funds, time, expertise and power. As a part of the efforts to ensure a fair hearing, several rights have been recognized.

- Innocent until proven guilty. The ones who believe that a crime has been committed should bear the burden of proof based on the evidence that convinced them of your guilt.
- Habeas Corpus. Because innocence is assumed, a person should not be held in jail indefinitely until the trial is over. If not, the innocent would routinely be punished. Trials are the method that we have agreed upon to determine guilt, not suspicion and arrest.
- Past history secret. This is necessary to preserve the status of innocence until guilt can be proved by the facts of the crime in question. This is important because humans will tend to form an opinion based on these negative actions. And you can never be certain if someone is being convicted for a past crime. The theory is that the evidence of the current crime should stand on its own merit.
- Trial by Jury. A group of ordinary citizens who are strangers, who should not have any preconceived conclusions will judge the facts based on the evidence.
- Double Jeopardy. You cannot be repeatedly tried for the same crime until a guilty verdict is obtained.
- Lawyer. The presence of a lawyer does not change the facts or the evidence in the crime. The lawyers are not the enemy. They are necessary to protect the accused from a vast array of abuses by a prosecution system that assumes guilt.

These rights are under attack globally. The proof is that draconian changes to most of these laws have been secretly in place since 1996 before the terrorist attack. The threat of terrorism has simply been used as an excuse to win public support for them. As Kissenger stated in 1992, fear will make us exchange our rights for safety.
The legal systems have been targeted by a group of people who are determined to create a global government for the sole purpose of global dominance and installing a global religion.
The first casualties in this war are the justice system and the media. Because the media does not analyze and report on these issues frequently, the public is not informed about the replacement of their legal system for one that is modeled after the infamous Inquisition.

Habeas Corpus and Indefinite Detention
This is the right that causes those who have someone in custody to produce that prisoner with a statement to justify his detention.
In Britain, a person must be produced and charged within sixty hours of arrest. In America it is twenty four hours. The prosecutor also has the burden of proof. This is important because an innocent person often cannot prove a negative. If the government arrested you for terrorism and required you to prove that you did not meet with Terry Heiss to finalize plans to hijack airplanes, most of you could not do it. Even if the prosecution narrowed the offensive action to a specific date, most of you would still be unable to prove your innocence. Why? Because you do not spend your day establishing an alibi or remembering every detail of your daily actions.
So, the law justly requires that prosecutors must have some reasonable proof on which to arrest you and they must provide all the proof to convict you. They must have evidence.
This thinking is apparently inefficient, makes guilty people go free, coddles criminals and handcuffs the police. But if we allowed people in power to arrest citizens because of their expertise and "gut feelings" we will set up an environment of persecution of the masses by a few powerful self-righteous people.
The trend (even before terrorism) is to suspend Habeas Corpus and arrest someone indefinitely or for long periods while the legal system tries to find evidence against the person. Under reasonable laws, the government had to have a reason and some evidence to support it before an arrest is attempted.
This new trend makes someone subject to the whim of a malicious power and can be used merely to financially ruin someone during the months or years that they are incarcerated. These tactics were used by kings and papists to subdue some groups and is the exact reason why the right has been recognized by civilized governments for centuries.

Trial By Jury
The right to a trial by a jury of your peers is also under attack. Critical thinking is being suspended by labeling ordinary citizens as "simple", stupid and unable to judge the complexity of a case. The right wing has been attacking court systems and promoting replacement systems that rely on special judges to guarantee convictions. New procedures are described as "fairer, simpler and more efficient". Fair to whom? Simpler than what? And more efficient at what? Remember, the Inquisition was fair to the church, simple for the prosecution and more efficient at killing and converting people. The "simple" and "efficient" methods used was to torture people until they said and did what you wanted.
People, justice is not simple. To be completely fair it cannot be "efficient".

Evidence and Burden of Proof
Why is it important that the one who brings the charges, provides the evidence? Why is the concept of innocent until proven guilty so important?
It is because it is too difficult to prove a negative.
Evidence. Most reasonable people would agree that there must be some reason for a person to be charged with a crime. There must be some evidence or basis for the accusation. So the one who makes the accusation is at an advantage, they have some reasonable evidence in hand. This evidence is the thing that prompted the investigation that focused on you as the main suspect.

Mrs Peabody's Pilfered Pie

The Case of the Disappearing Pie. Suppose the crime was stealing a blueberry pie that had been cooling in the kitchen window of Mrs. Peabody. This pie was decorated for a fourth of July celebration with a little plastic flag.
The prosecution was first alerted to the fact because the owner of the pie reported it stolen. In the best case, the owner and another witness would have seen you do the dirty deed. Maybe an investigation would show footsteps and tiny pink feathers in the mud leading from the window to your house. Finally, when they walked into your house they would find you with a mouth full of blue stains and pie crust, mud on your feet, pink fuzzy slippers and a little flag in your hand.
Beyond a reasonable doubt they could prove that you walked by the neighbor's window and probably stole the pie. However, you could have baked a similar pie and might not be guilty of the theft. But you could be guilty of trespassing.
But suppose the burden of proof was yours. It becomes impossible to prove your innocence in many situations.
If the police came to your house without any evidence and said "prove that you did not steal your neighbor's pie", you would be unable to do it. If the crime was limited to a certain date and time then maybe you can provide some credible alibi. You were 200 miles away with the mayor dedicating a new orphanage on July 4, 2003 at 3:00 PM when the pie was stolen.
And we have news media video tape to prove it.
And we do not yet have the technology to disassemble a person's molecules, beam them across the hemisphere and reassemble them at the same coordinates of the neighbor's pie in one second.
If you happened to live alone, and had no alibi then you would be convicted.
If you could produce your stomach contents and prove that a pie was not included, then you might have only succeeded in proving that you did not eat the pie. You did not prove that you did not steal the pie.

Burden of Proof. So the concept of burden of proof is not only reasonable it is logical. The person making the charge should be able to prove it. There must be some reason why he selected you as the culprit. It protects people from malicious prosecution. If this were not the standard then your enemies would be able make any accusation against you and prevail.

Here are some things that are impossible to prove.

- You did not read last month's issue of Playboy.
- You never stole from the church offering.
- You are thinking about an assassination plan.
- You are not thinking about an assassination plan.

The Infallible Supernatural Confirmation. I have a stupid granduncle who had a dream that his wife was being unfaithful. That week he met a man in a bar who looked exactly like the man in his dream. He came home and immediately accused his wife of having an affair. Years later, in any arguments they had he would continue to make this absurd accusation.
The Salem witch hunts were based on the same logic, that the supernatural is its own unimpeachable witness.

Double Jeopardy
The concept of double jeopardy guarantees you the security that you will not be charged over and over again for the same crime until the prosecution can get the "right" jury or court to prove that you are guilty.
This is important for several reasons:

- A malicious government or legal system or person with unlimited funds could use this process to ruin someone financially. Even if the state were forced to pay legal costs if you were acquitted, there remains a problem of maintaining your job, home and skills while you spend endless days in jail or in court.
- It forces the prosecution to prepare a good case. They cannot do a shoddy job knowing that they will get unlimited chances to convict you. The system already gives them time to prepare the case.

Double Jeopardy - Unattached?
Clever law makers are getting around the spirit of this law by allowing the following types of court cases to occur despite the verdict in criminal court. This usually happens in very public, emotional cases.

- Civil Law Suits. Even after conviction in a criminal court fails, a court with lower standards can convict someone and financially ruin them. This should not be.
- Another Jurisdiction. Another court system or another country can charge you with an equivalent crime.
- Another Law. Failure to convict in one court might lead to charges in another court that are technically different crimes. A person can be acquitted of murder in one court, only to be charged with "depriving a person of their civil rights" in federal court. This civil right is the right to life.

Extradition

The French Fashion Police
The French have found a new weapon in the war against terrorism. It is the scarf and the beanie! It was with tongue in cheek that I created this ridiculous example to illustrate the concept of extradition. But on December 19, 2003 the French proved that anything ridiculous will be possible. As this web page warns, ridiculous religious laws will be made with terrorism and unity as the justification. Declaring themselves a secular society, although they are 88% Catholic, the French have banned the Muslim head scarf and the Jewish beanie in public places. "Small" Christian crosses are allowed. Jews can wear a small star of David instead. Most of my Jewish friends want to wear a beanie. They do not wear the star of David.

Agreements made to transport the accused from one jurisdiction to another. This includes from one country to another. Under the concept of "Dual Criminality", one assumption is that the laws under which the accused is charged is a criminal offence in both countries. It guarantees that a foreign state cannot ask for the extradition of a citizen for actions that are not criminal within his own country. It even ensures that the foreign state cannot prosecute a citizen for an action that was committed in his own country but which is illegal in the foreign country.

Dressed to Kill: The Case of the Great Labor Day Escape
Suppose France believes that wearing white clothes after labor day is a fashion crime. While Americans who regularly dress in sack cloths only regulate public nudity. The following could happen.

- I wore white after labor day while at home in the United States. Friends would comment about my poor fashion sense. The French would be appalled but they could not ask for my extradition. If they did, it would not be honored. I did not commit a crime in their country and the United States has no fashion sense and does not care.
- I wore white after labor day in France. I could be arrested and imprisoned in France.
- I wore white after labor day in France and escaped to the United States. The French could ask for extradition because I committed a crime in their country. However, the United States is free to deny the request since that is not a crime in this country.
- I was naked at the Eiffel Tower and escaped to the United States. The French would go blind after goughing out their eyes. The United States would extradite me to France.

In the dark ages, the papacy regularly asked nations to punish individuals for legal actions done in their own country. If the nation did not comply an interdict would be imposed on the entire country or he would call for all faithful Catholics in the country to rise up against the infidels and execute mob justice.

Extraordinary Rendition
This is a fancy name for kidnapping a foreign national from their country to bring them to justice in a country of your choosing. Under the Patriot Act and the new mandate to fight terrorism at any cost, the government is kidnapping people and taking them to places like Egypt where they can be interrogated and tortured.

> "We have 50 percent of the world's wealth, but only 6.3 percent of its population. . . In this situation we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will allow us to maintain this position of disparity. We should cease to talk about the raising of the living standards, human rights, and democratization. The day is not far off when we are going to have to deal in straight power concepts. The less we are then hampered by idealistic slogans, the better."
> George Kennan, Director of Policy Planning of the U.S. Department of State, 1948.

Models Of Justice
There are three basic models of justice. They are based on some formal legal system.

1. Biblical Justice. This is based on the laws that combine civil and religious laws under a single civil penalty system. The government enforces both civil and religious law.
2. Civil Justice. These are laws based on enforcing only civil laws by the government.
3. Mob justice. This occurs when the public executes justice when they believe that the legal system will not guarantee them the verdict that they want. Anarchy results when people ignore the law and everyone becomes a law unto himself.
   Media justice. This is a specific form of mob justice. In this, the media attempts to do by persuasion, what a mob does by force. The problem with this is that the system assumes that one is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. However, the media becomes the judge and jury when it decides what the facts of the case determines and ruthlessly sets out to promote these facts.
   In several celebrated cases, the media deliberately broadcast positions or images that represented their opinions without showing all the evidence that contradicts these facts, or without actively retracting errors as vigorously as they promoted the fables.
   In protecting one position, usually that of the prosecution, they seldom correct errors that condemned the accused. This plays into the psychological games of the police who will use any tactic to break someone they have decided is guilty. They will manufacture images where none exists and the police is usually responsible for much of this falsehood.
   - False Reenactments. I have seen images of a neck with choke marks where evidence later proved did not exist. The police leaked a story that the victim was choked and the media took a picture of a model with make up that represented the alleged choke marks. When they presented the story they made you assume that these were actual crime scene photographs.
   - Lying by Omission. In the famous Jon-Benet Ramsey case, the open and shut argument was that there was snow on the ground and the only foot prints were ones leading to the house. Therefore, the killer must have been part of the house. The problem was, while all the media was presenting these facts and showing this evidence, that inches away and around most of the house there was no snow!
   - Inane Arguments and False Science. They will make ridiculous arguments and hope that the public is stupid enough to believe it. For example, when an accused man was found with changed appearance, he was supposed to be in a new disguise so that he could flee to Mexico. The problem is that he had dyed his hair weeks ago and met with his friends. It is absolutely stupid for someone to assume a new disguise and walk around for weeks so that people can see it. Someone who assumed a new disguise would change his appearance after he had started running, so that descriptions would be based on his old appearance. Duh!
     The more practical reason is that he changed his appearance to get some temporary relief from the hungry horde of fetid, rotting media hounds who would not let him walk around in peace. Because they assumed he was guilty and they were going to hound him until he confessed.
     In this particular case, I have heard so much evidence that "proved" his guilt that I knew was ridiculous from a scientific standpoint, that I wonder why the media would poison public opinion with such garbage while they ignored other credible evidence that was in favor of the accused.
     Since the Ramsey case and since researching police tactics, I have come to the conclusion that I will never believe anything that is reported and I will choose to jump off the bandwagon that the media and the prosecution are trying to railroad people into.
     There is a reason for the presumption of innocence.

   Media justice unfairly promotes one position and recklessly contaminates public opinion in the process. The police hire public relations firms and promote their case in the public instead of protecting the rights and privacy of the accused and the victims. As part of this promotion they deliberately tell lies or make associations that are negative. The media always becomes the puppet of the police as reporters try to be the next Perry Mason and Paul Drake. The accused is usually denied fair treatment.

Under any of these systems there are two models for determining the process by which justice is delivered.

1. The Law as a Weapon. The procedures are used against the accused. It is based on the goal of not allowing the guilty to go free. The biggest problem is the corruption of this system by the powerful and the vast number of the innocent who are destroyed.
2. The Law as a Shield. The procedures are used to protect the accused. It is based on the goal of not allowing an innocent to suffer. The biggest complaint is that the victims and their family suffer emotionally under this system. While there are many cases of the guilty being freed, this system works.
   In countries where this principle operates, the police have begun to use the media as the weapon to convict the accused before the trial. There should be an automatic gag order on the prosecution and defense in all cases.

The death penalty was applied to crimes related to the ten commandments. Specifically it was applied to the first eight commandments that involved physical evidence and physical action. A false witness in a death penalty crime will receive death (Deut 19: 15-21). They were not applied to crimes of conscience which could not be measured or witnessed first hand. These are the last two commandments that outlawed lying and covetousness.

Biblical Justice
Many people want to go to a model of biblical justice. Biblical justice is based on a form of government called a theocracy. Since God is omnipotent, just and merciful, He would ensure that no miscarriage of justice occurred. Under the theocracy, God had more direct communication with people. You could expect an immediate answer from God. Error was impossible if they relied on God.
Because justice was guaranteed, and God was physically present, the punishment was more severe. The death penalty was applied to many crimes, because the crimes were committed against God by a person who had direct evidence of the existence of God. But even under this system it was very difficult to prove guilt and very difficult to apply the death penalty.
Two Witnesses. Two witnesses were needed to bring a charge. (Numbers 35: 20). When you think about this, it is very difficult in most criminal cases because crimes are generally not committed in front of an audience. Therefore, many guilty people must have escaped immediate justice. But since God became the guarantor of justice, we know that the guilty will not go free and that the "hidden sins" would be revealed. The problem was that often, God took many years to dispense justice. Why? Mercy was more important. The redemption of a sinner was a process not a single event. Vengeance was second place to mercy.
Cities of Refuge. God established seven cities throughout Israel. If a person who is guilty of accidental murder can run to these cities he would be safe there. The presumption is that only God could examine motives and even with the presence of two witnesses it is possible for an injustice to occur. Therefore, if God helped you to escape, He was in effect voting for pardon. Other crimes were not protected under this loophole because it is very difficult to "accidentally" commit rape, adultery, incest, idolatry and all the other crimes. All these crimes involved a deliberate act.
Alcohol intoxication would not be a defence because you are responsible for actions because of an object that is known to be dangerous that you continue to associate with.
Death Penalty. Death penalty was applied to crimes against God or against the physical body of another human being.
Since the law required two eye witnesses to convict you, how often do you think that these crimes were punished? Most of these are carried out in secret.
Adultery is a private act. Even if one of the parties accuses the other, neither would be convicted because the only two witnesses will not confirm each others statements.
In the case of disobedience to parents, how often do you think that two parents would turn over their child for punishment under the law?
In the case of the only crime that may be a public act, the owner of a dangerous animal is first given a warning. And there must be witnesses that he was warned.
Biblical justice seems to protect criminals.
Christ also leaned towards mercy. In the story of the woman who was caught in adultery (John 8: 1-11) it was clear that He preferred forgiveness.
But since Israel rejected the theocracy, none has been or will be established by God on earth until the coming of Christ. Therefore biblical justice can no longer be applied fairly. However, the bible predicts two global attempts to establish a theocracy by a religion that claims to have a representative of God on earth who can dispense justice through his infallible connections. The church ruled Europe in the dark ages and it will attempt to rule the whole world again at the end of time.
We have experienced the success of this experiment in the Dark Ages. Hundreds of millions of innocent people died or were tortured and irreparably ruined. Do not let it happen again.

Modern Civil Justice
There are two basic systems of modern justice. One is the Inquisition, the other is like the United States Constitution. Both make different basic assumptions about what is crime, the rights of the accused and the power of the prosecution. Systems like the Constitution came because of the excesses of the Inquisition. They assumed that power does corrupt and that the people needed a court which would be fair, impartial, immune from bribes and include the people.

The United States Constitution : The Law as a Shield
The constitution is more concerned with protecting the innocent than it is with punishing the guilty. The architects of the constitution came from an era when despots ruled and the people were at the mercy of their power and influence. Therefore, the law guaranteed that the people would be protected from those in power and that the excesses of the past, like the Inquisition, would not be repeated. These are the assumptions made under this law:

- Indefinite Detention - The sixth amendment guarantees that people are not held indefinitely by granting a fair and speedy trial. Habeas corpus was universally assumed. The judicial system must produce the arrested person within twenty four hours and prove why they should be arrested.
- Jury Trial - The seventh amendment.
- Innocent until proven guilty.
- The Defense has certain rights which will help them prepare an adequate case.
  - Witness are allowed to testify for the accused.
  - The accused has the right to a lawyer even at state expense.
  - You had the right to know what crime you were charged with.
  - You have the right to see evidence and witnesses.
- Chain of Evidence. Eye witnesses and physical evidence were necessary. Suspicion, gossip, accusation, implication by someone who was tortured might create information for an investigation but should not cause an arrest.
- Witnesses
  - Perjury. If a witness admitted that they were lying, the testimony would not stand.
- Torture or excessive bail was not allowed under the eighth amendment.
  - Self-incrimination. The fifth amendment says that you cannot be forced to testify against yourself.
  - The fourth amendment says that unreasonable search and seizure was not allowed.
- Seizure of property was not allowed under the third amendment.
- Appeal is allowed.

The Inquisition : The Law as a Weapon

Success at what cost?
For those advocating the success of this model in administering justice, it is worth noting that the only success that the Inquisition had was to kill millions of innocent people, destroy dissent and establish the Catholic church. And what were these crimes that disrupted the fabric of the whole family of humanity? Being Protestant, Jewish, Moslem. Being anything except Catholic. Worshipping on the Saturday Sabbath. Smiling or laughing at the ridiculous claims about the power of Mary. Not going to mass. Not obeying the pope on anything that he says, whether or not he is speaking infallibly. Eating fish on Fridays. Not performing idolatrous acts on her feast days. I suppose murder, rape, theft and robbery are included, unless you get a special indulgence to commit this act against the enemies of the church-state. Oh yes, the church granted indulgences to anyone who went on a crusade to kill or convert a heretic. This indulgence granted them immediate access to heaven on death, no matter what crimes they committed in the past, present or future. Do you think that murder, rape and theft decreased? Why would a church allow this? Because the prize was not the murderer or the rapist or a vile pedophile. It was global control of conscience.

The Inquisition was called to stop the spread of heresy. Many thought that heresy was disruptive to society and that the efforts of the church to restore social order was a good motive. This effort to "restore social order" does not imply that there was unrest, demonstrations or anarchy. However, the loss of people to other beliefs could not be tolerated by the church.
So the Inquisitor was appointed by the church and then the accused was handed over to the state for punishment.
Under this system of law, the following procedures and assumptions were allowed.

- Indefinite Detention - was regularly done. The accused would remain in jail until they confessed.
- Jury Trial - did not exist.
- Guilty until proven innocent.
- The Defense
  - No witness was allowed to testify for the accused.
  - No lawyer could defend the accused because they would be charged with defending a heretic.
  - No one could visit or support the accused because they would be charged with helping a heretic. Remember that technically guilt has not been proven. So how could someone prove their innocence under these conditions?
  - Sometimes the accused did not know what crime they were charged with.
  - They were not allowed to see documents related to their cases.
- Chain of Evidence. Eye witnesses and physical evidence were not necessary. Suspicion, gossip, accusation, implication by someone who was tortured was enough to cause an arrest and a conviction.
- Witnesses
  - Perjury. If a witness admitted that they were lying, the perjured testimony would still stand if it could convict the accused. But if the new testimony exonerated the accused then that was not allowed to be used as evidence.
  - Known perjurers were used.
  - Condemned heretics who were probably forced to implicate the accused.
- Torture
  - Self-incrimination. Once a tortured confession was obtained, torture would be suspended and the witness was asked to repeat his confession with the torture chamber in plain view. This was done to satisfy the claim that the confession was received without torture!
  - Accuse Others. The suspect had to implicate someone else. Often a name would be suggested by the inquisitor. This repeated the cycle and could be used to implicate someone else who had been arrested. The fact that the two defendants did not know each other, that the testimony was admitted to be false or that the witness was tortured until they agreed to the testimony was irrelevant.
- Seizure of property.
- Usually no appeal was allowed.

Therefore, on the assumption of guilt, the system was solely designed to make the accused confess. They were not even allowed the chance to attempt to prove that they were innocent.
A guilty verdict was guaranteed every time.

Canon Law
Canon laws are the laws of the Roman Catholic Church. They are unique in that they claim jurisdiction over civil and religious affairs. In this respect they model the Biblical Justice system. However, there is one flaw. We are not a theocracy. The claims of infallibility by the pope are meant to assure the faithful that biblical justice can be applied because of this special relationship with God. But if this assumption is false, we have unleashed a tyrannical demigod on the world.
To administer this system of justice, the church aims to form a one world government. In it there will be a single economic, political, religious and legal system.
One sign of this success is the creation of the world court. A world court has finally been established in which the Vatican has long hoped for this organization where

> "those who are responsible for violations of the most heinous crimes which offend the conscience of the human family . . . will fall under the jurisdiction of this Court".

Because all the laws of the church cannot be reformed, if the church has its way heresy will be one of the heinous crimes that will be punished under this court.
So certain "crimes" will be seen as

- Offending the conscience of the human family.
- Disrupting the unity of the whole human race.
- Disrupting families.

> Canon Law 751 - Heresy and Apostasy. Heresy is the obstinate denial or doubt, after baptism, of a truth which must be believed by divine and catholic faith. Apostasy is the total repudiation of the Christian faith. Schism is the withdrawal of submission to the Supreme Pontiff or from communion with the members of the Church subject to him.

> Canon Law 1372 - No Appeals. A person who appeals from an act of the Roman Pontiff to an Ecumenical Council or to the College of Bishops, is to be punished with a censure.

> Canon Law 1369 - Inciting Public Hatred for the Church. A person is to be punished with a just penalty, who, at a public event or assembly, or in a published writing, or by otherwise using the means of social communication, utters blasphemy, or gravely harms public morals, or rails at or excites hatred of or contempt for religion or the Church.

> Canon Law 1373 - Inciting Public Hatred or Disobedience for the Church. A person who publicly incites his or her subjects to hatred or animosity against the Apostolic See or the Ordinary because of some act of ecclesiastical authority or ministry, or who provokes the subjects to disobedience against them, is to be punished by interdict or other just penalties.

> Canon Laws on Education. A Catholic education must be provided by civil government.
> Canon Law 793 -
> 1. Parents, and those who take their place, have both the obligation and the right to educate their children. Catholic parents have also the duty and the right to choose those means and institutes which, in their local circumstances, can best promote the catholic education of their children.
> 2. Parents have moreover the right to avail themselves of that assistance from civil society which they need to provide a catholic education for their children.
> Canon Law 798 - Parents are to send their children to those schools which will provide for their catholic education. If they cannot do this, they are bound to ensure the proper catholic education of their children outside the school.
> Canon Law 799 - Christ's faithful are to strive to secure that in the civil society the laws which regulate the formation of the young, also provide a religious and moral education in the schools that is in accord with the conscience of the parents.

> Canon Law 797 - Catholic Education. This laws sounds exactly like the School Voucher Bill arguments.
> Parents must have a real freedom in their choice of schools. For this reason Christ's faithful must be watchful that the civil society acknowledges this freedom of parents and, in accordance with the requirements of distributive justice, even provides them with assistance.

These laws sound a lot like the hate speech rhetoric and legislation and the attempts to get the government to finance religion through school choice and charitable choice programs.

Towards A Modern Inquisition

The Legal Noose Is Tightening
| The Constitution
Common Law | (The World) "hate speech" laws | Patriot Act (United States) |
--- | --- | --- | ---
ICC | The Next Dark Ages
| Magna Charta
Corpus Juris (European Union)

Three sections of the world are establishing laws and court systems based on the Inquisition. You think their noble goal is suppression of terrorism, public safety and harmony or prosecuting "real" criminals. But the prophecies warn us about the return of the dark ages through the same powers that ruled over the ancient persecutions.

1. The United States. Established the Patriot Act in 2001. However, the provisions of that law were hidden in many other laws in 1996. The Clinton administration must have been secretly preparing for a legal war on terrorism.
2. European Union. Established the Corpus Juris system in 1998 to prosecute financial crimes. However, the architects of the law intend it to be the model for all European Union law. It appears that within the member states, the national laws are conforming to this model.
   In England, David Blunkett, the politician who is trying to change British law to conform to this model also tried to get a law that makes it illegal to "incite religious hatred" in their new terrorism laws. Here we see the attempt to make a criminal offense of words not actions.
   The Canadian version of this law (Bill C-250) is now being used to makes it illegal to read certain parts of the Bible. If a homosexual feels uncomfortable because of your words you can be sent to jail for five years.
   Even in the United States we allow the KKK to have public demonstrations, own internet sites and say whatever they want. What does religious speech have to do with terrorism? Nothing, unless you make the great leap backwards into thinking that religious interpretation that is not Vatican inspired causes social revolution.
3. The World. The International Criminal Court (ICC) has been established to prosecute the most heinous crimes. But they use methods of the Inquisition and appear to be going beyond the bounds of the "most heinous crimes" to include "mental crimes" and environmental crimes. Some countries are accusing others of destroying the global environment by driving SUVs (Sport Utility Vehicles)! It appears to be a forum where countries can take revenge against others.

Hidden in all these is the ultimate agenda of the church. They are already establishing the precedent that religious proselytizing, spreading a non-catholic gospel or heresy is a mental crime that is disruptive to human society. Therefore, in all these laws we see veiled reference to these two broad concepts.

1. Mental harm
2. Disrupting society or having the potential to do so.

Both can be punished because of our words, not our actions.

Efficient Justice? So court proceedings can be swift and efficient and can guarantee conviction of those we know are guilty under these conditions.

1. If we are omnipotent.
2. If we are infallible through special contact with the omnipotent God.
3. Lacking omnipotence and exuding with self-righteousness, if we set up a judicial system which is modeled after the inquisition we can obtain efficient prosecutions. But justice will not be possible.

Therefore, under the banner of efficient justice, many democratic nations are moving to a body of law that models the inquisition. The surprising thing is that these laws exist side-by-side with the most enlightened thinking of modern man. For example, the constitution forbids torture, yet those who hold defendants based on the Patriot Act allow torture. Therefore, there is no comfort in the stated aims of a law. What matters is the procedures and the judicial staff that are set in place to administer the law. In the right kind of atmosphere anything is possible, regardless of the law. And somehow, these laws and procedures from the dark ages are allowed to be applied while we are under the illusion that we are maintaining the civility and fairness of principles like the great United States Constitution.

The United States Patriot Act

The Supreme Court Rules
On June 28, 2004 the supreme court made a decision about the status of prisoners held as enemy combatants indefinitely without a lawyer or charges or trial or any due process. The court ruled that although United States citizens can be held as enemy combatants, and they can be held indefinitely without charges, they and foreign detainees must eventually have access to a lawyer and the court. That still leaves so much room for delay and foot dragging and abuse. But, we have the correct legal situation to fulfill prophecy. We can be held indefinitely as enemies of the state, but will have access to a court where we must defend our faith. But be on your guard; for they will deliver you to the courts, and you will be flogged in the synagogues, and you will stand before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them. (Mark 13: 9)
So the Patriot Act system remains, but the prisoners have a right to present evidence in court. Justices Scalia, Rehnquist and Thomas sided with the government. Now we know what the church wants!
As of November 2005, it appears that the Supreme Court intends to reverse these decisions and allow the President to do whatever he wants to those he thinks deserve no justice. Recent Supreme court appointments are of people who agree with him. So the majority who made the 5:4 ruling is now in the minority. So the president gets a second bite at the apple while the status of the people at risk has remained unchanged during this time. This sounds like double jeopardy.

The provisions of the Patriot Act were already signed into law by the 104th congress in 1996. Why? And why was there not a public debate and a loud outcry? Do you think the media has been bullied into submission? If there was a sexual scandal linked to this then maybe they would have gotten of their big, fat "sit upons" to report the threat to our liberties.
Despite the fact that the constitution provides such wonderful protection, the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism ( U.S.A. Patriot Act) exists.
It is assumed that under a two-tiered system of justice, only the guilty terrorist will disappear into the void of unsupported government accusations and the good citizen will rise above the scum of close examination on the wings of the mighty constitution. It is assumed that the constitution protects the guilty and the Patriot Act closes these loop holes. The original law itself has these provisions which are against the constitution.

- Sunset Provisions. The legislators wanted certain powers to end after a certain period. They were concerned that these laws were too harmful to our civil rights.
- Sneak and Peak. They can search your property secretly without telling you before or after the search.
- Indefinite Detention.
- Special Prosecution. Military Courts are used to guarantee justice. However, these procedures break all the laws of the United States Constitution. And it was accepted because we thought an American citizen would not be subject to this treatment and non-citizens do not deserve the protection of the constitution.
  This was your first mistake.
  1. The trials are secret and you have no right to be there.
  2. There is no appeal.
  3. No trial by jury.
  4. No right of cross examination.
  5. You cannot testify for yourself.
  6. Hearsay evidence is allowed.
  7. There is the presumption of guilt.
  8. Guilt is by 2/3 vote.
  9. You may not have access to a lawyer. Prisoners do not have the right to choose their military counsel.
  10. You and your lawyer cannot see the evidence against you.
  11. There is an attitude that you do not deserve normal rights.
  12. Torture is allowed. Any evidence taken by torture is allowed.
  13. Provides no right of appeal against conviction or sentence to a higher court, or access to redress for any human rights violations that may occur during arrest, detention or prosecution. So if they beat and torture a false confession out of you, that does not matter.
  14. Bypasses the normal principles of law and rules of evidence applied in the trials of people charged with criminal offences in the United States courts.
  15. Even if you win your case despite all the insurmountable odds, the government can still detain you for the same reason that it lost the case. They just have to believe that you are a threat in their omnipotent minds and you disappear forever. We now have the situation where the government knows people are innocent but are not releasing them.
  16. Now we find out that if you are found not guilty after all these restrictions, the government can still hold you indefinitely.
  17. No speedy trial guaranteed. You can be held for over fifty years without charges!
  FISA is the court that has secret trials, authorizes secret searches and warrants.
  Donald Rumsfeld: The First Inquisitor General of the United States
  In June 2006 the supreme court said that the court system was unconstitutional. It advised the government to go to congress to make laws to authorize these actions. On August 2,2006 a draft proposal of the law was leaked to the Washington Post (page A4). This proposal goes beyond anything they previously had. It gave all the previous powers in addition to some new ones.
  - By the Will of the Almighty Rumsfled. The secretary of defense can add any crimes to the list of crimes prosecuted under the juristiction of this court at his own discretion in order to conduct his witch hunt on anyone. This is the man who could not define torture, even if it plucked out his fingernails. So do not remove the tags from that pillow! I know that they are going to call criticism sedition and throw all their critics in the dungeon.
  - Any Person. They have built in the ability to expand the jurisdiction of this court. Any person can be brought before this court whether or not they belong to or support a terrorist organization.
  - Death Penalty. They lowered the number of votes required for the death penalty from seven to five. Normal civilian courts and traditional military tribunals require 12 votes.

Patriot II (The Domestic Security Enhancement Act)

Aah, The Inhumanity!
It bothers me that you do not care. It bothers me that you care more about your next paycheck, cable television, DVD, cell phones, car taxes, a vacation, a new car and stock prices. It bothers me that you are willing to trade the possibility of terror avoided for the reality of terror inflicted on an innocent. It bothers God too. That is why this generation must suffer the economic punishment of Revelation 18.

On January 10, 2003, John Ashcroft sent a draft of the law called "The Domestic Security Enhancement Act of 2003" (DSEA). It has been suspended as a result of the bad publicity. But its provisions are being carried out in Guantanamo Bay and are probably privately being entered into law just as the provisions in the Patriot act were quietly entered into law in 1996. Here are some of the provisions:

- No Expiration. Many "sunset provisions" that were supposed to expire in five years will not. These are the laws that were so troublesome that legislators only passed them if they would expire. Sixteen expired provisions were extended. Fourteen were made permanent! However, as I stated in my page on laws, the original provisions that effect my eschatology did not expire under the first version of the law.
  - Home can be searched without your knowledge. They can plant electronic listening devices or search you home for names and locations of other members of your church.
  - Internet activity can be monitored without a court order. Bible study chat rooms can be monitored, shut down and participants can be traced.
  - Phone records can be obtained without a court order. Conversations and locations can be obtained.
  - Credit records can be obtained without a court order. Flight to avoid persecution can be tracked if you use electronic transactions.
- Deportation. Legal permanent residents can and are being deported without any charge or evidence even if the offence is not related to terror.
  A British born person who is now a citizen was detained and questioned. No evidence and no charges were filed but he was returned to Britain because of a marijuana charge that he had in the 1960's. Forty years ago! He has a wife and family and has never had any problems since. We have had many presidents who "lusted in their hearts", committed adultery, were alcoholics, and took other drugs.
  On August 24, Sixty Minutes showed similar stories this time involving Arab men. Some had families with young children. One person was arrested and detained and beaten for months. What did he do? Unfortunately, he used the same Internet cafe that was used by one of the hijackers to send an e-mail. The story did not say that both events occurred on the same day. I assume it was not.
  All the men could not be connected to terrorism yet they were all deported on the tiniest excuse.
  It appears that this is a malevolent application of the law. And this is occurring in calm times.
- Citizenship.

  The Lone Wolf Terrorist
  November 2005. They have created a class of people who they can subject to these laws. These are people who they cannot connect to any organization, but the claim that they are "in sympathy" with the enemies of the United States. We have seen that their definition of "in sympathy" means any opposition to the president. Sedition Act. There is also a simultaneous movement to bring back a sedition act. This means that any criticism of the government is defined as treason. Several media critics are calling for this to silence public officials like politicians and other media. This means that you have to agree with torture, raping of children, gassing and burning civilian populations because these actions are necessary to protect our society. I do not think that God intended for us to agree to this.

  We accepted military tribunals because a distinction has been made in the minds of the public between citizens and non-citizens, terrorists and the rest of the law abiding public. You assume that a citizen will not come under the jurisdiction of this court.
  This was your second mistake.
  Therefore, all the court has to do is fiddle with the definition of who is or is not a citizen. As you will see, even if you are born in this country, on the fourth of July you can be stripped of you citizenship and fall into the void that is named the Patriot Act.
  Under the provisions of Patriot II, a United States citizen (born or naturalized) can lose their citizenship without formally requesting to do so. By redefining words they say that by your actions they can infer that you want to give up your citizenship. Therefore, they are not even taking responsibility for stripping you of your citizenship. They are twisting their rhetoric to say that you "asked" to be relieved of your citizenship by your actions.
  This was the same slick redefinition of words used to hold prisoners at Guantanamo Bay so that they are called "unlawful combatants" and not "prisoners of war". Under this definition they hold them in wire cages and torture them. And the American public generally did not care because they were terrorists who did not deserve any comfort.
  I will demonstrate that in democratic countries these "terrorist actions" are as simple as preaching a gospel that offends someone. In France it may soon be wearing a hat that cannot even hide a gun. Some people claim that they will never be that rigid in applying the law.
  This will be your third and final mistake.
- Assets Taken. I also believe that because of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, HR 3103 which became public law 104-191 on August 21, 1996, that property can be confiscated from people who lose their citizenship. The Patriot Act itself allows for forfeiture of assets.
  This tactic became a very profitable action for the church in the Dark Ages. The rich were often accused of heresy and their property was taken. The rich therefore learned to promote the welfare of the church with all their money and power.
- Indefinite Detention. The government can refuse to release any information about someone who is detained until they are actually charged. But they are already doing that anyway. Hundreds are held at Guantanamo Bay for almost two years and they still have not been charged. During this time unreliable tortured information is being extracted and their families wait at home with no idea about what has happened. And you still do not care as long as the threat level is green.
- Suspend Habeas Corpus. Indefinite detention occurs because Habeas Corpus is suspended. This has not happened since the civil war. And then it was done for an unjust reason.
- Liars Protected. Businesses and people who spy and give private or wrong information will be exempt from legal actions. This provides no safeguard against malicious actions.
- Illegal Searches Protected. Police officers are exempt from legal action if they were following orders while doing illegal searches. This brings us back to the spurious nature of the charges on which the orders were made. The police can search anyone, anywhere, anytime and claim that they gave orders based on information that they are not required to verify from people who will not be punished for lying.
- Extradition to a Foreign Government. These actions can be requested by a foreign government. So, just like medieval times, the Vatican can ask for citizens to be persecuted. Although this scenario is just a glimmer in my eye, it is now legally possible that because of mutually agreed upon infraction of the law the Vatican can request this government to arrest, interrogate and torture. Sounds familiar?
- Judicial Appointments. In March 2007 we learned about another secret provision that the idiots who passed the law without reading it missed. The powers fired their own conservative lawyers who would not play along with political abuses. They have the power to do this and bypass congress when they appoint judges permanently. According to the constitution, congress is supposed to approve these appointments. Now the little shrub wants to make appointments that his inadequate mind thinks will save the world when the whole world knows that he has turned out to be a greater threat to the universe.

It is the Inquisition. No lawyer, no contact with family, no charge, no evidence, torture, stealing assets and indefinite detention or banishment after leaving you destitute.
Ouija Board Justice. In the military tribunal, guilt is not by an absolute majority. Burden of proof is now on the accused! The defendant does not have a right to see a lawyer and does not for years. Tortured testimony can be taken. The defense does not have the right to cross examine. The defense is severely handicapped. But if the tribunal of military officers (not a jury of your peers) finds you not guilty you can still be held indefinitely!
How? How? How is this possible?
If the almighty government in their wisdom thinks you are a threat or will be a threat then they can keep you even if they have no evidence in a court that is stacked in their favor.
And all of this can be requested by another government. Witnesses, officers of the court and the government can lie without any fear of accountability.
It is a justice system that has nothing to do with justice but everything to do with efficiently removing a targeted group.
They are persecution laws.

** Update **. It seems that the provisions of the Patriot Act II is being developed in the dark and misty dungeons of secrecy. And they will be thrust upon us. In June 2005, the government is not only seeking to make the laws permanent, it is trying to add more restrictions. The media has no coverage on the issue or what is at stake. They cut off testimony on the abuses. They simply relay the message that the Patriot act is protecting our country. By June 7 the FBI has been granted the ability to search without warrants. They do not even have to go to a secret court to convince a judge. Any person in the FBI can issue a "National Security Letter" that begins this process. Imagine if such a person has a vendetta against a person or a church! Justice is now in the hands of private citizens and one church. Guess which church is deep in the pockets of the FBI and CIA, with many members in top positions?
The FBI is watching groups such as the Quakers, ACLU, environmentalists, PETA and any group that advocates peace. In fact they are watching groups that do not agree with their business policies. This has nothing to do with security. It is a political vendetta. Already absolute power has absolutely corrupted. Or the absolutely corrupted have taken absolute power.
Imagine thinking that an organization that call themselves "The Society of Friends", that opposed slavery and love peace can be investigated. This is not about terrorism. This is about silencing groups that will oppose inhumane and barbaric behavior. Even Peacefully. It is investigating the ACLU because this organization protects the Bill of Rights and challenges any encroachment on them.
One famous man used such high ideals to call the frightened and prejudiced. He also set up gulags and tortured. Then they murdered. Then they murdered. Then they murdered.

Creating The Police State: Local Spying
The government is experimenting with mobilizing and managing the citizens. In this effort, two organizations have emerged.

- Citizen Spies. In August 2002, the Terrorism Information and Prevention System was launched. It gives citizens a means to report suspicions without fear of reprisals or liability. As part of this program, the government is training any personnel who have the right or permission to access private homes. They are taught to look for suspicious activity. So repairmen, mailmen, delivery personnel, housing inspectors and utility employers are a part of this army. My apartment is usually inspected once every two years. Last year, 2004, I had a brand new inspector. He looked so military I had to chuckle. So it was no surprise to me when my landlord informed me this year that inspections will now be annual. Of all the people who could come into a private home, this is the only group of workers who have the right to go everywhere and look into everything. What amazed me was that I expected this. I looked at all the types of professions who were being trained and I concluded that only the housing inspector truly has the type of access that could give any meaningful information.
  I wonder if private homes will suddenly start getting an excuse for regular intrusive inspections. It will probably be done as a pretence to evaluate property for taxation. They may even sell it as a tax relief program.
- Citizen Militia. The minute man project emerged in April 2005. It is used to patrol our porous borders. We are mobilizing more citizens with guns and a feeling of power. And we are fostering the "us against them" nationalism that never led to any good in the past.

Courage: Into the Mouth of the Lion
John Ashcroft, December 6, 2001.

> To those who scare peace loving people with phantoms of lost liberty, my message is this: Your tactics only aid terrorists - for they erode our national unity and diminish our resolve. They give ammunition to American enemies.

King Darius made a law that no one should make a petition to any God for a certain period of time. The penalty was death. Daniel would daily go to his window and pray towards Jerusalem in public. This was his normal practice. When the law was passed he did not close the window and pray in private or leave the window open and pray from further within the house so that he could not be seen.
He maintained his loyalty. He gave God his best. He stepped into the mouth of the lion.
He did not find a compromise between his love for God and his fear of an unjust law.
Neither can I.

It is ironic that we are being criticized for defending the constitution. Ashcroft implies that the Patriot Act cannot be criticized. It is as if we are giving away top secret information. He implies that but for our meddling and belly aching, that somehow the Muslims could not articulate the huge discrepancy between our constitution and our actions. His comment unfairly characterizes those who defend the wisdom of the constitution in the following manner:

The Phantom of Liberty Past
It seems that while Mr. Ashcroft was waxing eloquent about "phantoms of liberty lost", that the spooks (Gonzalez and Carr) came to his hospital bed while he was on pain medication. He was having surgery for a problem with his pancreas in March 2004. The president wanted him to agree to the secret domestic spying program and his deputy who was left in charge would not agree to this. So the spooks trotted off to Ashcroft's death bed on their little goat feet and tried to convince him to agree. To his credit he said no. While lying on his back, his backbone kicked in. Finally, it appears that Ashcroft recognizes that only God is good and humans are a degenerate species who should not even be given the authority to wipe their own behinds. Needless to say, the fairy tale does not end there. James Comey (Ashcroft's assistant), Jack Goldsmith and Patrick Philbin later resigned. In 2005, James Robertson, a judge on the FISA court also resigned in protest. Both Ashcroft and his deputy and that crowd were not invited back to King George's tea party in the next administration. And they never got the cheap gold watch and the shiny medal and the promotion. They got the boot.
This is an update to what I wrote three years ago. While Ashcroft may have had his idealism tarnished. I would just like to say that there are real, honest people who still reflect the character of God.

- Not Peace Loving. You are not for peace if you defend the constitution. You are for peace if you allow the government to torture and indefinitely imprison suspects. I would say that acting humanely will not hurt us in the face of a group of people who do not fear death, fear God, believe that God will reward them, believe we are infidels and have proven that they will stop at nothing to kill us. They are several billion strong. We cannot kill them all.
- Assist Terrorists. He is accusing them of treason. Giving aid and comfort to the terrorists. This is a lie. We are defending the constitution. I am defending the golden rule.
  This concept of "giving aid and comfort" is so broad that it could mean any rhetoric that does not agree with the government. It is not limited to directly providing food, money and shelter.
- Erode Unity. We cannot be unified under a moral wrong. Germany tried it and lost their soul in the bargain. I intend to keep mine.
- Ammunition to Enemies. This is the only truth. We are teaching our enemies about love, justice and fairness.
- Treason. He is essentially accusing us of treason. Recently FOX news personalities have been calling for the government to investigate and jail liberal media organization and others who oppose the president and his war.

Lost liberty is not a phantom, Mr. Ashcroft. It is a real tragedy.
Consider Adam and Eve. The only way one can reconcile what happened in Eden with the actions of God is to realize that liberty and freedom of conscience was more important than the billions of innocent unborn. God did not intervene with one final appeal when Eve held the forbidden fruit in her hand. God did not sterilize her to prevent billions of unborn innocents from suffering.
He threw us into the mouth of the lion.
Why?
The only reasonable answer is that liberty of conscience was worth the cost. He would repair the damage.

I know that I must face God some day. I would like to do it with clean hands, a clear conscience and the courage to speak up about evil. The bible repeatedly warns that morality cannot be achieved by force because persecution is the final option. To prevent this concentration of power, God forbid the family of kings and priests to perform the same work. Absolute power corrupts absolutely!

One shameful fact of my church is that although they did not actively participate in some social injustice they did nothing to prevent it or express their displeasure. They accommodated it. It took the government to force my church to admit black patients in their hospitals. They were content with living with segregation, even if it meant that they were sending people to their deaths by denying treatment. They never found a nonviolent or noncoercive way to voice their objection because that would cause them physical pain. Or loss of membership. We do not want to make waves. I wonder whose church they were protecting? In my gospel, you absorb pain, but you do not inflict pain or watch it being inflicted. Now we proudly claim that Soujourner Truth was a member of the church. But we probably did not support her or her underground railroad. The Quakers have an honorable legacy that Jesus is proud of. I am proud of them.
When we behave like Christ, we will get into trouble even when we do not seek trouble. It cannot be avoided. Just having a different point of view invites mocking and derision. The gospel requires us to turn the other cheek and to give our coat also when someone takes our shirt. This does not mean hiding in the corner, hoping that we can pass by undetected. We are being backed into a corner. One of passive compliance and the other of moral courage. I choose the path of moral courage and passive resistance by my freedom of verbal expression. When they justified torture they crossed the line. When they raped children to coerce parents they erased the line. And I say, not in my name will anyone torture, rape, terrorize, steal, oppress or enforce Christianity under the label of freedom and security.

The Unconstitutional Power Grab
I am inserting this paragraph under the umbrella of American laws because the power abuses that have occurred since I wrote this have been simply breathtaking. In the dead of night Republican lawmakers are inserting laws which were never debated and which give enormous powers into the final copy of a legislation between the time the final draft was debated and the corrections printed the next day for the final vote. This is a tactic from the inquisition that was used in fifteenth century France. The president is spying on American citizens, we have secret prisons around the world where we are torturing people, raping children to force parents to talk and creating a mockery of decent human behavior. Like the Nazi German doctors, military doctors are now participating in the torture by assessing the best psychological weaknesses to attack and by medically inducing consciousness so that the prisoners are conscious for longer periods of torture. It is a nightmare.
Even after God asked me to write about the effect of personality and interrogation techniques in 2001, and to investigate laws in 2003 and the role of the media, I still did not think that such a breakdown in decency could occur so quickly under relatively calm circumstances. I thought that the strange and urgent compulsion to investigate and write these things was fascinating and informative. I never thought that I would be living the nightmare.
It was as if a horde of bandits had been waiting for generations to rape the constitution and they are now in the throes of an orgy and a feeding frenzy. Now all their waste is being dumped on us. They foul the air with their lying lips and from the other end they crap on the rest of us who are living down stream and down wind.
Over 150 years ago, Adventists said that the constitution would be changed. But because of the contempt for the law and the process by which a law is made and challenged, it appears that the change and implementation comes before the challenge in court. And this effectively subjects the citizens to a period of a reign of terror until someone challenges it in a court. And we only hope that court is filled with decent men. Well, the court has also been stacked with despots. We now have a solid Catholic majority on the supreme court, ready to implement canon law. These congressmen are even writing draconian laws that include the provision that the courts have no authority to challenge the law. Is our country being run by monarchs who think that they have a divine right to rule? Welcome to our brave new world.

Speaking about roving wire taps in a April 2004 Buffalo interview, the president said "nothing has changed, you need a court order for a wire tap ... when you think about the patriot act, the constitutional guarantees are in place ... We value the constitution". That was a lie, because the man is a disgraceful liar. They had been illegally wiretapping for three years and last week they claimed that the constitution and the patriot act gave them the power.
The law that allows domestic wire taps is very liberal. You can get the court order retroactively, so time is not an issue. In all the years that it has existed the secret FISA court has only denied four of the over sixty thousand requests. The only reason that they broke the law is because they want to wire tap their political and industrial enemies without leaving a record. And they want to do whatever they want because they are lawless. They waste precious resources and man power infiltrating environmentalist groups with little old women. They abandoned Osama in Afghanistan to grab the oil in Iraq. They are not fighting terrorism. They are grabbing wealth and power.
I am now inclined to think that any future "terrorist" attack will be orchestrated by them to keep us living in fear and secure their power.

The Unity Chair

More Stupid Laws from the Minds of Stupid People. We now have a scenario where anyone can surreptitiously insert any stupid unconstitutional law into a bill that is being voted on and it suddenly becomes the law. Someone could decide that every American needs to show their patriotism by owning a chair painted in red, write and blue. We have the freedom to put the stars anywhere we wish. But regulations require fifty.
The country has three weeks to comply and miraculously some company who owns a chair manufacturing company just happens to sell a state approved chair. By the fourth week, the police could be inspecting homes and arresting people all over the country. People could languish in jail until someone challenges the law. If the federal and state appeals court and the supreme court are stacked with men who believe in the "chair for public good" then we are doomed to sit in another chair. Four men could turn the country upside down if congress is as idiotic as this one.
The powers granted under the patriot act are unconstitutional and immoral and we are still plagued by them after four years. Most of the people arrested, tortured and languishing in jail because of it have never been found guilty of any of the original charges even under the military tribunal system that rubber stamps their evil deeds. Most of the supposed confessions are to lesser offenses and were made under torture. They deport people who had one arrest for marijuana possession in the 1960's and count that as a triumph for the power of the patriot act. Under these metrics, they would count it a victory if they could convict you of spitting on the sidewalk and cutting off the labels on your sofa if they could not prove that you were manufacturing nuclear weapons.
When I made up the French Fashion police scenario I thought that was ridiculous, then two years later the French started banning hats! So, maybe there is a unity chair in your future?

The European Union: Corpus Juris

An Example of European Laws
» No evidence is required for an arrest. » You can be held for 116 days without a charge. » There is no trial by jury. » The first trial is before one judge. » Either side can request a new trial. » The second trial is before three judges. » You can make a final appeal to the Hague.
People love this kind of system when they "want something done". Judges are very powerful.

It is like the Patriot Act of the European Union and it became law in 1998. This is a plan originally prepared by the European Union commission at the request of the European Parliament, to handle fraud against the budget. The details were written in a secret meeting in Spain, Ireland and finally in Rome. Most Catholic countries are modeled after this law. Countries that would have been affected were not informed so that they could make an impact.
"I wonder why", she said stupidly?
This model European criminal code will later to be extended to all types of crime. Here are the provisions that are modeled after the inquisition that was very successful at theft and murder.

- Special Courts and Prosecutors. It will set up a European Public Prosecutor who will function exactly like the Inquisitor General. He will have over-riding jurisdiction throughout Europe, to instruct national judges to issue arrest warrants against suspects.
- No Jury. Trial by Jury model is replaced with the model used under the inquisition. The cases are then to be tried by special courts, consisting of professional judges and "excluding simple jurors and lay magistrates". Not only are we too simple to study the Bible we are too simple to judge criminal cases.
  How could this have happened? And why are people more interested in football games than their rights? When the Adventist church kept saying that these laws would come and on the heels of it enforced religion, everyone laughed. Now that part of this prophecy is here, people are willing to assume that it will not be taken to the extreme. But the point is that you have already given them permission to take it to the extreme. And how many deaths will it take till we know that too many people have died?
- International Arrests. Those arrested can be transported to other countries and the special prosecutor can issue warrants for arrest in any country.
- Indefinite Detention. People can be held in custody for indefinite periods pending investigation. This was later changed to a six month detention, renewable for three months at a time without a maximum limit. What is the difference? None. It is still indefinite detention, whether or not the government surfaces every three months to request and obtain continued incarceration. No doubt they will make this inconvenience efficient.
- Double Jeopardy. You can be retried again and again for the same offence until they obtain a conviction or you are ruined financially.
- Guilty until Proven Innocent.
- No Evidence. There is no obligation to produce prosecution evidence and no right to a public hearing during this time.
- No Rights. There is no "due process" and there are no Miranda Rights.

It rapes the Magna Charta and the laws of many Protestant nations who are joining the European Union. In England, the Criminal Justice Bill is designed to make British law conform with the principles of Corpus Juris. Most other European Catholic states model that law.

The International Criminal Court
The statute authorizing the creation of the court was adopted at an international conference in Rome on July 17, 1998. Rome, meddling again?
"I wonder why?", she asked stupidly.
These laws are modeled after Corpus Juris. The mission of this court which originally convened in Rome is to prosecute the most serious crimes. It was probably started to curb leaders of sovereign nations who are guilty or are in the process of committing these crimes.
But it seems to be going beyond this mission to the prosecution of crimes that should be left to the individual nations. And some provisions under each category are too broad.
Again, like the Corpus Juris, we see Rome at the center of these laws. Read the prophecies and ask yourself why?
The tribunal came into force on July 1, 2002. This court was established to prosecute certain crimes.

- Article 6. Genocide. Among these crimes are "Mental harm" and "Imposing measures to prevent births".
  Under Genocide, is the crime of "imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group". This could not only include abortion but the distribution of birth control pills which is a crime in the Catholic church. The statute should have read "forcibly or secretly imposing measures". The law had no trouble with the use of the term "forcibly" in other areas, but it left this category very broad.
  Did you ever think you would be guilty of genocide by simply taking a birth control pill or by distributing them? Pharmacists all across America are refusing to fill these prescriptions. And do not let them fool you into thinking that it is just controversial medicines like RU-286 that may actually prevent the implantation of a new embryo. They refuse to fill all types of birth control.
- Article 7. Crimes against Humanity. One vague crime is "other inhumane acts causing serious injury to mental health".
  - Under Crimes against Humanity is "other inhumane acts which cause serious injury to mental health". In France, religious instruction between consenting individuals for the purpose of conversion is called "mind control". Soon there will be no more Bible studies under this law.
  - Committing Outrages on Personal Dignities. (Article 8, 2b xxi and 8 2c ii). The Vatican considers efforts to teach the gospel a crime that fits this category. The crime of rape and other such personal crimes is already listed. So this additional provision is superfluous, vague and too broad.
    Defamation of Religions. Since 1999 an ad-hoc committee of the United Nations Human Rights Council have been proposing a measure on Defamation of Religions to be included as an amendment to the ICERD (International Covenant on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination) in international treaties. This law aims to suppress criticism of religion in the name of defending human rights. Countries with anti-blasphemy laws probably welcome this law to defend their domestic policies. Every time the measure had been introduced it has been voted in as non-binding. For the first time, since 29 October 2009, these requests have been to make these rules a binding treaty. On 25 March 2010 they passed a resolution, backed by Islamic countries, with 20 votes in favor, 17 against, and 8 abstentions.
- Article 8. War Crimes. These include willful killing or causing great suffering, torture and inhumane treatment, wanton destruction of property and stealing property, denying a prisoner of war a fair trial, forcing a prisoner to serve in your army, unlawful deportation, unlawful confinement, taking hostages, attacking civilian targets and many more acts of cruelty and unnecessary destruction.
  The United Nations lost any credibility when it provided exemptions from war crimes prosecution to powerful nations and allowed them to torture. They are demonstrating the behavior prophesied about them in Revelation. The nations will bow to the will of the United States and the Catholic Church.
- Article 121 and 123. Crime of Aggression. These crimes and acts of aggression have not been defined as of 2004. There is speculation that the USA invasion of Iraq would be guilty of this crime.
  But I believe that efforts to do evangelism will also fall into this category. Uninvited people knocking on your door to talk about religion certainly seems aggressive. The crime of attempting to change beliefs is a serious violation of canon law.

Torture. Although the laws do not allow torture, there seems to be an exception. Torture, "except that torture shall not include pain or suffering arising only from, inherent in or incidental to, lawful sanctions."
So if the torture happens because of the "lawful sanctions" it is allowed!
Here is an example of the summary of the law specifically forbidding one thing while the administrative rules permit it.

War Crimes Tribunal . If the procedures of the War Crimes Tribunal is a model for the future, then international law is in trouble. Remember that this court was set up to prosecute the must heinous, public crimes that had a great effect on large groups of people. You have the impression that evidence and witnesses should not be a problem. But the tribunal did the following:

- Secrecy. It used secret witnesses.
- The prosecutor can use evidence in the trial and keep the source confidential (Rule 70).
- A witness can give the prosecutor evidence in confidence then refuse to tell either the prosecutor or in court how this evidence was obtained. This means that liars and malicious government agencies can fabricate charges and still be protected.
- Cross-Examination. It denied the defense the right to cross-examine witnesses.
- Under rule 71, a witness can give a deposition (testimony in writing outside the court) and they are not cross-examined by the defense. In a normal deposition both sides can cross-examine this witness.
- Indefinite Detention. Defendants were held for an indefinite period. Prisoners were held for over a year without being charged with any crime.
- Double Jeopardy. Rule 99 allows the arrest of someone who has been acquitted of the charges if the prosecutor will appeal the verdict.
- Self-Incrimination. Rule 90 forces a person to testify against himself.

As you can see, even though this is a court that should be overwhelmed with evidence, it is not set up to administer justice even though it has all the advantages. It is set up to showcase a predetermined public conviction. The presumption about the cases tried in this court is that the behavior was so widespread and public that there should not be a lack of evidence or witnesses. Yet, if these legal entities have to resort to these tactics to prove their case then any of the following is true:

1. They have no evidence to support their claims.
2. The court is a formality for imposing punishment on those that it has already determined guilty.

Other International Regulations
United Nations: Religious Freedom. Sometimes the lofty laws of the United Nations appear to represent the most noble aspirations. However, subsequent additions will make the law ambiguous so that it can support a future one world religious control.
For example, Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states:

> 'Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance'.

But it also says the following:

> "no one shall be subject to coercion which would impair his freedom to have a religion or belief of his choice."

The church is interpreting proselytizing as this type of coercion. The French called it "mind control".

Banking Regulations.
It started as a noble effort to rid the world of drug and weapons trafficking by targeting money laundering. At first it targeted cash transactions over $10,000 and required the bank to submit a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR). Now, all banks must develop a profile of all depositors so that they can determine suspicious transactions of any amount. This profile determines how much income and expenses you should have monthly. Any amount greater than these are "suspicious activity".
The "Know Your Customer" (KYC) regulations are becoming law around the world. It was initiated on April 28, 1989 in Paris by the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation (OECD), as a five year plan to be completed between 1999-2004 to introduce KYC to the world.
The summary on a report, "Minimum Security Devices and Procedures and Bank Secrecy Act Compliance" states the following:

> As proposed, the regulation would require each nonmember bank to develop a program designed to determine the identity of its customers; determine its customers' source of funds; determine the normal and expected transactions of its customers; monitor account activity for transactions that are inconsistent with those normal and expected transactions; and report any transactions of its customers that are determined to be suspicious, in accordance with the FDIC's existing suspicious activity reporting regulation. By requiring insured nonmember banks to determine the identity of their customers, as well as to obtain knowledge regarding the legitimate activities of their customers, the proposed regulation will reduce the likelihood that insured nonmember banks will become unwitting participants in illicit activities conducted or attempted by their customers. It will also level the playing field between institutions that already have adopted formal "Know Your Customer" programs, and those that have not.

Think about how easy it is to develop your profile without your knowledge

Your financial habits are predictable. So it is not difficult to develop a profile from your historical records because your monthly transactions do not vary a lot. Even cost of living increases can be anticipated. This profile becomes the "normal and expected" transactions.
Since there are a limited number of utility companies, the identification of the recipients of most of your expenses are known. All businesses are required to list all the types of goods and services they offer. This will help to trace your clothing and transportation expenses. Therefore, it is the charitable donations, cash withdrawals and money sent to individuals that will be tracked. Since religious and non-profit organizations that accept donations are required to register, they can trace your donated check to the organization that received it. This gives them the ability to identify members and supporters.
The Terrorist Profile. A normal, innocent person has only certain income and expenses tracked. But a clever terrorist could disguise himself as a legitimate business. As an employer he could dispense money to his operatives. As a recipient of money they generally disguise themselves as charities, but there is no reason why they could not disguise themselves as a high end service provider and sell property or services that does not exist. However, when they are caught, all users are assumed to be part of their conspiracy. The very smart terrorist would try to operate a real business with the fake one.
How Does it Affect Prophecy? The ultimate effect is that it can be used to identify the religion that you support. Therefore, they will know who to target in the economic boycott. You will not be able to buy or sell unless you are cleared from this list.
This identification will be made through cancelled checks, credit card or debit card donations to the church. This has certain advantages at tax time. If you decide to avoid it by giving cash donations and giving up your tax benefits then you will still get in trouble. Your bank must report cash withdrawals over $10,000 whether or not they are in lump sum or structured. Structured means that you withdraw several smaller amounts, but the total withdrawn is over the $10,000 limit. You still have to explain where you spent the money.

The Prophecy of a Global Church State Tribunal
Notice that Rome is behind both the ICC and the Corpus Juris system. A closer examination may prove that they are also behind the Patriot Act.
I believe that prophecies in Revelation teach certain things and enjoins me to warn the world not to participate in certain actions. In these prophecies the following are predicted.

- After the Roman Empire collapses, a religious power would take over. It would persecute the church for 1260 years before it is stopped.
- It would regain power again and try to do the same thing globally.
- It would try to change laws.
- A new world power would emerge around the time that the church loses power. It would provide a safe place for the persecuted people.
- Through the use of the new world power, the ancient power enforces religion globally, even killing people again.
- God calls the church to warn the world about the global power and the consequences of disobeying Him as they obey this power.
- God tells us to warn the world to leave that religious system.
- It is described as the great whore who controls the governments of the world. No other Church can be described with that level of power in the past, present or foreseeable future. Islam comes close, but it does not control the governments of the world. They are afraid of Islam.

I believe that this power is the Roman Catholic Church and I believe that it is trying to stop any publication of this interpretation of prophecy and the spread of Protestant beliefs. It can do this effectively by labeling every negative public expression as racism just to silence the voice of one.

In the eighties, many Adventists students of prophecy surmised what might happen to the judicial process in the United States when the prophecy that we will become a nation that enforces global religion comes true.
I remember reading about the calling of a constitutional convention to change the law. This must be endorsed by a number of states and voted on by the people and that at a minimum the process would take several years. The belief was that we could see it coming.
Well, it is 2003 and we are legally in that place without a change in the constitution and we did not see September 11. It took six weeks!
The self-righteous simply have to declare the church a terrorist group or a group that supports terrorism. Under this designation we would be subject to this treatment.
Under the trend in Canada and the European Union, they simply need to relabel our work as hate crime which causes a disturbance to society that may lead to terrorist behavior. The Canon law and the laws of the ICC already include language that could describe this as a crime against humanity.

Establishing The One World Government
The United States is on a mission to achieve global political and military dominance. The Roman Catholic church is on a bigger mission to achieve global political and religious dominance. The church has targeted the European Union as the political machine that will drive its globalist dreams.
But the two will collide and emerge as a force that will enforce global religious dogma through the military power of the United States.
If the prophecy is to be fulfilled, the church must gain global influence and power. It appears to be following a specific strategy. First, they regained dominion over the Catholic nations of Europe. Then they will engulf the Protestant nations and finally the rest of the world.
Parallel with these political efforts is a plan to change laws, take over the communications systems and public educational system of the nations.

The Art Of War: Conquering The Enemies
Once the Vatican achieved the status of a country in the Lateran Treaty of 1929, it set about implementing a plan to subdue the entire world using economics as a bait. It is exercising this plan with the skill of a military power.
With the hope of a revived Roman Empire reflected in a full European Union, the church saw two real threats to its goal. The communist Soviet Union and the United States. It launched its attack on the Soviet Union by teaming with the United States. Now they must go after the United States and also complete their assault on Protestantism. I will demonstrate how they are accomplishing this by using the well known war strategies of Sun Tzu.

The Art of War by Sun Tzu
Situation | # | Strategy | Meaning
--- | --- | --- | ---
Superior Position | 1a | Cross the sea under camouflage | Secret plans are best concealed in the open. Extreme public exposure contains extreme secrecy. Hide in plain sight.
Free speech. Set legal precedent that "hate speech" is terrorism, by prosecuting the most abhorrent groups. Chances are that no one else will defend free speech because of fear of association. Then stop all religious speech on the same grounds.
Media control and influence. Contrary to all other eras, many popular dramas now have religious characters. They are Catholic characters that are being used to sell the Catholic propaganda. They hide the reality of Catholic control among immoral programs. Many news personalities who shape our opinion are Catholic. Especially the political pundits.
1b | Besiege Wei to rescue Zhao | Better to attack a dispersed force than a concentrated one
Ecumenical movement. Attack Protestant churches because they are scattered and independent.
Internet censorship. Control or own ISPs and Servers and remove objectionable Protestant material if the ridiculous "Support of Terrorism through Hate speech" designation fails.
1c | Kill with a borrowed knife | Use your ally to attack your enemy and preserve your strength.
The alliance to end Russia. Made an alliance with the United States to conquer communist Russia.
School Vouchers and Faith Based Initiative. Convince the American government to support your educational programs and institutions. Preserve your own wealth.

1d | Wait at ease for the fatigued enemy | Weaken the enemy to gain the upper hand
The alliance to end Russia. Outspend the Soviet Union in the arms race and ruin their fragile economy.
1e | Loot a burning house | Exploit your enemy when he falls into a crisis
The alliance to end Russia. Encourage many simultaneous movements of former communist nations to break away after the crisis in the Soviet Union
1f | Make a feint to the east while attacking in the west | Smoke and mirrors. Bait and switch. Diversion. Confuse the enemy and attack when they lose control or when you have gained a position of strength.
Satanic strategy. The UFO phenomenon is being used to make people think about alien creatures as ugly sadists. He will come as a beautiful benefactor.
Quietly monopolize the media while supporting immoral shows. Then control all political and religious views and ban all other opinions.
Confrontation | 2a | Create something out of nothing | Make a counterfeit front and then change it to a real danger
Create Sunday laws as labor laws. Begin religious enforcement when the political climate is right.
2b | Advance to Chencang by a hidden path | Expose part of your plans and attack somewhere else. Diversion.
Pretend to be interested in only freedom, love and world peace. Hide the fact that the church wants total religious control over every human being.
2c | Watch the fire burning across the river | Take advantage of conflict in the enemy alliance. Wait and strike when they destroy themselves
Europe might be following this strategy as the United States fights the war on terrorism on two fronts.
The fall of Babylon. Revelation 17: 16 predicts the collapse of the papal alliance with the United States and Europe. This is when God confronts them.
2d | Conceal a dagger in a smile | Make the enemy trust you and secretly make plans to destroy them. The Trojan horse strategy.

3d | Let the enemy off in order to snare him | Tire the enemy to sap their morale and capture them when they panic. This preserves your assets.
Require registration for Protestant churches, giving the illusion of freedom of religion. Harass these churches who legally have a lesser status in Catholic and Orthodox majority countries.
3e | Cast a brick to attract a gem | Use bait to lure the enemy
The fake intelligence on nuclear capability deliberately given to the Americans by the Italians, it caused the democrats to accept war with Iraq.
3f | To catch rebels nab their leader first | Capture the leader and the forces will collapse
Become an indispensable ally to the American president so that he will make efforts to establish Catholic principles in the country. Bush has weekly meetings with the church and tries to meet with a leader on any trips.

Last, define bible prophecy as hate speech and unpatriotic speech and ban its teaching.
The agreements with former communist nations. The Catholic and Orthodox churches are protected under special status designations. But Protestants must register, or are banned and in some cases are forced by local officials to seek approval from the church to do their work or build churches.
4e | Befriend a distant state while attacking a neighbor | It is easier to make friends with a distant enemy so that you can attack the one that is closer.

Ecumenical movement. Churches committed share resources and pastors. It will be impossible to go back and rebuild their organization at full strength.
Conservative Protestants work for the establishment of religion but detest the ICC and potential military and political compromise of America. They will learn too late.
5e | Putting fake blossoms on the tree | Use deception to appear more powerful and attractive
Satanic strategy. Make idolatry, disobedience and immorality appear more rewarding and attractive.
5f | Host and guest reversed | Enter the decision making body of your ally and slowly extend your influence. Then put them under your control.
Undermine U.S.A. government. Fill political, legal and influential government positions with your own members then form a formidable alliance when the time is right.
Ecumenical movement. Join Protestant political movements and leadership conferences and bodies. Introduce your agenda and take them over.

6f | When retreat is the best option | Retreat when the enemy is too strong. Live to fight another day.

- The Conquest of Europe. The conquest of Europe is the story of the conquest of Protestant and Orthodox Europe. In 1951, the foundations of the European Union began with a few Catholic countries. By 1973 the Protestant countries began joining. Now the European Union is the center piece of the strategy of the church to establish a new world order. It has implemented Sabbath laws and civil laws based on the Inquisition model. It has taken over the public educational system of countries like Germany and is so pervasive in the government that people who want to leave the system cannot do so.
  The same open strategy of church control is being followed in South America. Protestant churches must register to operate. The educational system is run by the church in many countries. Text books are printed with the Virgin Mary and openly denounce Protestants as the cause of all social evil. Yet many people who still have free societies do not look at what is happening in countries where there is a Catholic majority and the government systems are run by the church. Possibly to divert charges of racism and to avoid an encounter with the powerful tentacles of the church, the media and those who should know better do not inform the public.
- The Conquest of Communism. They used the strategies of "Superior Position" to defeat Russia. In 1989, the Soviet Union was defeated after the combined efforts of the Vatican and the United States destabilized the country. This is one of many efforts that finally succeeded. I believe that God allowed this effort to succeed at that point because the world was technologically at the point where the gospel could be finished.
- The Conquest of the United States. As a free society, the United States can be subverted internally.

  Religious Affiliation of Congress
  Religion | 1999 | 2000
  --- | --- | ---
  Catholic | 151 | 150
  Presbyterian | 48 | 49
  Episcopal | 43 | 41
  Lutheran | 22 | 20
  Jewish | 34 | 37
  Mormon | 17 | 16
  Baptist | 70 | 72
  Methodist | 62 | 65
  Other Protestants | 79 | 37
  Other | 8 | 48

  - Politicans and Legislators. The congress, senate and Supreme Court have a Catholic majority. They may be willing to pass laws favorable to the church.
    The Supreme Court is 55% Catholic (Scalia, Kennedy, Thomas, Roberts, Alito). 11% Episcopalian (Souter). It is also 22% Jewish (Breyer, Ginsberg) and 11% Other Protestant (Stevens).
  - Laws. We see these actions in the "School Voucher Bill" and the "Faith based Initiative" or "Charitable Choice". John Ashcroft who is responsible for the Patriot Act is also responsible for "Charitable choice". Bush intends to spend at least eight billion per year on this program. These programs fund the church and help their goals of taking over public education.
  - Economy and Military. They could also be engaged in other acts aimed at weakening the country by attacking the economy. Europe lost their global power status in the 1940's as a direct result of bankruptcy caused by the war. The September 11 fever created an opportunity to allow the United States to overextend themselves militarily. Europe would emerge as the economic and military leader.
    - Europe reduced its investments in our national debt in the nineties, even though our economy was strong and the deficit was being reduced at an incredible rate. Japan now holds 30% of the debt.
    - Italy provided the false information to the British to lure the British and the United States into war with Iraq. Of course the American government was more than happy to find information that might justify war. And there is a theory that claims that the United States might have furnished this information so that it could return to us as a reason to justify war.
    - France, Germany, the Vatican and the United Nations wisely advocated no military action. They can now legitimately deny help along with the rest of the world as the United States goes begging around the world seeking for real military and economic partners, not the bogus "coalition of 30 nations" that it has to pay and keep out of danger in Iraq.
  But there will be a wrinkle in their plan. The United States will help them to achieve and enforce the laws of this global dominion, not Europe. So the United States will survive this attack, but it might be forced into a closer link with the papacy.
- The Defeat of the Protestant Churches. The war against Protestants is being fought in two ways depending on how much strength they have. In Protestant countries, the ecumenical movement is being used to convince Protestants to reject "sola scriptura" for a promise of unity. One result is the agreement not to convert each others congregation. Billy Graham will not honor the request of a Roman Catholic who seeks bible study, they are being told to go back to their churches.
  I have been told from a very reliable source that this has also happened in the Seventh Day Adventist church. A priest wanted to join because he did not feel that he could forgive sins. He was told to go back to his church, reconsider his decision and give it two years.
  In confused situations where they have the power or majority, they make agreements to secure their position and undermine those of others. The precarious position of Protestants in former communist nations and in Catholic south America makes it very easy to make ridiculous changes in the law to curtail the activities of the churches that it has forced to register.
- The Defeat of Islam. They used the strategies of "Confused Situations" to exploit the chaos that exists there. They want both dominion over the people in that region and control of Jerusalem. One goal of the church since the Crusades has been to control Jerusalem. The bible predicts that this will happen just before the final persecution.
- The Defeat of the Rest of the World. It is hoped that the rest of the world will fall in line when the promised appearance of the Virgin Mary occurs. Until then, countries will prostitute themselves because of economic benefits.
- The Defeat of the Resistance. These remnant people will be another wrinkle in their plan. They will resist the rule of the church over their conscience. In Revelation 13, the bible predicts the persecution of this group after the church subdues the world. The parallel prophecy about the King of the North in Daniel 11, places this intense persecution after the conquest of Israel.

Sticks and Stones and Words

> Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.

While words can hurt emotionally, there is an acceptable way to end them. Do not buy their products. Turn off the television. Do not visit the web sites. Teach your children your values. Close the door to the bible worker who comes to your home. Do not invite them to your party.
But free expression should not be legislated. I heard that Canada got its laws that are now targeting religious speech because the moral right wanted to silence the offensive speech of the worst liberals. Now their opposite intention has been realized.
No speech is protected when any person's speech is silenced.
Unfortunately, this method of upheaval is what is prophesied will occur as the moral majority tries to take back God for America. The forces of evil will turn the very laws that they are trying to use to ensure the survival of Christian values against Christians.

We should be confident enough to know that God will succeed in the worst circumstances. Jesus lived in a time when the Roman rulers were vicious pedophiles and practiced orgies.

The Art of War: Silencing Free Expression

Free Choice Menu
• Christianity • Sunday worship • Daily mass • Mary

The last world tyrant would like to silence free expression also. The pope does not define freedom as the individual right to choose what they want if it is between consenting adults. Freedom, in popedom is the freedom from doing wrong, it is not the freedom to choose right or wrong as God gave it to Adam and Eve. The "wrong" and the "right" will be what the church decides and gives you the "freedom" to choose. So it intends to eliminate all "wrong" choices. That includes Protestantism, Sabbath worship and birth control. It intends to enforce "correct" choices. This includes Sunday worship, mass and the rosary. They are accomplishing this task through a variety of means.

- Making Words Illegal Without Actions. Free expression is silenced because we have made it "politically incorrect" to talk about certain subjects or express certain ideas. Religious discussions are frowned upon in all circumstances. Critical judgment based on religious grounds is being made illegal in many countries. Many countries make it illegal to argue about what is right according to the bible if it offends another group.
- Media Control. Through control of news channels and television production, the opinions of others are silenced while the opinions of a few are voiced.
  Because free press is in danger, what exists only functions as a propaganda machine for the powers in control.
- Redefining Words and Labeling. Expression is silenced when a group becomes afraid of an undeserved label. Often, these new labels have come because of a redefinition of what is right and acceptable. And a characterization of former rights as evil.
- Censuring Criticism. We lived in a democracy with free speech until the Soviet Union fell. Then democratic nations started planting the seeds of totalitarian governments. In 1999, the European Union passed an anti-blasphemy law which makes it a crime to criticize or mock the European Union. The same year the UN Human Rights Council introduced anti-blasphemy laws to prevent "defamation of religions".

Religious Expression. In this war, the ultimate prize is to silence certain religious speech. Amidst the forest of contemporary causes, only one speech is the real target. In this fight for love, tolerance, acceptance, hate speech and homosexual rights is the secret strategy to stop all religious discourse. When this bears fruit, then everyone will be expected to conform to the new ways of thinking.
Only when the monopoly takes over will we recognize that it was not just hate, intolerance, rejection, hate speech that was suppressed and was being promoted as necessary for the good of the world. All these controversial rights are just red herrings. Religious speech is the real target.

A Conspiracy of Silence. We saw how easy it was to suppress the peace movement in the Iraq war by the liberal use of the term "treason". The government was allowed to use falsified secret information. The normal checks and balances were subverted by the efforts of the government, the news media, appeals to God and the blank stare of the American public. Now we do not want to pay for destroying a country we had no right to enter because we have too many financial problems at home. We got to this place because we could not wait for the process of justice and because we silenced free expression. This intimidation and silencing of dissenting opinions leads to a dangerous state of consensus called group think.

The Exposure of Janet Jackson. The enemies of free expression pounced on this opportunity. Miss Jackson handed them her breasts, in prime time in front of our children. The fall out resulted in the termination of Howard Stern. A man whom the radio was willing to use to earn huge profits for them until they were ready to close the conservative net. Such people were used as smoke screens to bolster the argument of a liberal media. However, the owners and powers behind these networks who hire these filthy mouths were conservatives!
Now, I believe that she was wrong and she got what she deserved. She stepped out of the bounds of what we agreed would be allowed during certain hours. She pushed the envelope and got snagged.
But they used the censure of inappropriate behavior to establish systems that will be used against the innocent. It was a Patriot Act level response.
Good people are not too unhappy to see the Howard Sterns and their foul mouths gagged shut. He might have been an early casualty of this censorship war because he had started to criticize the Bush Administration. He never cared about our young children or the kind of society he might be creating. Maybe now he sees that the world is bigger than one person. Now he can see that he was just as dogmatic in his righteousness as the people who are now taking over.
So we cheered instead of looking at what we might have lost. We are happy at his misfortune. We never think that it may one day become our misfortune when the morality police decide that there is something wrong about our speech.
But this is the legacy for the future.

- Delayed and Censored Performances. All live performances are now censored. Someone from the government can sit in and cut out whatever they want. They "promise" not to interfere with political statements. Only last week (April 20-24, 2004), the chief justice of the supreme court had his bullys detain a journalist and confiscate his tape because Scalia did not want his words on tape. I guess they can always say that the notes were inaccurate or "taken out of context", but who can argue with a taped confirmation. This type of rewriting history occurred with the persecution of Richard Clark, but they could not easily do that with Bob Woodward because everything was on tape.
  The media whores never did say what Scalia was trying to hide. Why? Because they are censored media whores.
  In the war to establish censorship, the only loopholes are live performances where the odd actor or two who is not with the political agenda, may accidentally warn the public of what is really happening.
- FCC Censorship. The FCC has taken jurisdiction over free speech and is enforcing their will with hefty fines. They punish the artists, the network and all the innocent stations that are just transmitters of content. Therefore, there now exists a whole chain of powers who can be intimidated into caving in to the demands of the government.
  Not only on Ms Jackson's breast, sooner or later it will be a religious sermon, my web site, or your opinion.

The Art of War: Creating Crimes of Conscience
They will invent the crime to fit the law. Here is the global plan for the future. They will make certain religious actions illegal under the nebulous social conscience statutes. These actions are designed to restrict Protestant activity by applying restriction of trade techniques so that they can form a monopoly. They do the following, often with the reason that they are fighting terrorism or protecting the family:

Restriction of Trade
Activity | Strategy | Examples
--- | --- | ---
Production | Stop the preaching of the gospel that the church considers to be heresy. | Use national and international law to define these efforts as criminal activity and dangerous to society
Customers | Make agreements that restrict access to customers | Make ecumenical agreements to stop "sheep stealing" or converting members of another congregation.
Supply and Demand | Take steps to end interest in the organization or access to it | Infiltrate and stop evangelistic efforts from within Apply the "cult" label Make laws to monitor and restrict their activity
Competition | Neutralize threats | Stop the preaching of prophecy which identifies the goals and aims of the church
Legal | Define activity as illegal or create laws to regulate the competition | Make national and international law to define these efforts as criminal activity. Make operations difficult in a country. Laws defining the church as the state religion Laws giving the church favored status Require other churches to register
Propaganda (Advertising) | Apply negative social labels | Label such speech and information as antisocial and negatively associate it with other traditional hate speech
Distribution Channels | Take over distribution channels | Public education News organizations Television shows Political influence to create laws Use legal means to close other channels
Take steps to stop all methods of distribution through legal action or business deals | Deny permits for evangelism crusades Close or censor Internet sites Stop door to door evangelism Stop the building of churches Ban symbols of other religions

The War of Words. Use propaganda to float the idea of world peace and brotherhood. Link the success or failure of these efforts to disagreements, old feuds and negative speech. Get Protestants to lower barriers in pursuit of this dream. Make it unpopular not to adopt this new thinking. Daniel 8: 25 talks about this strategy of the last power. "By peace he shall destroy many".

Social Revolution. It is the belief of the church that heretics cause revolution and disrupt the social order. Therefore, their crimes are both against the religious and civil governments. Therefore, telling people to leave the church is causing social revolution and should be illegal.
Therefore, when the nebulous "Crimes of Aggression" are defined they might include broad language that will make Protestant evangelism illegal.
How is this aggression?
We will be attempting to change the beliefs and moral structure of an entire culture and creating the conditions for a social revolution. It does not matter if this is peaceful, or if the violence is only on the part of those who are losing members. For example, in South America, violence has increased against Protestants because of evangelistic efforts. This violence could be attributed to us because we created the conditions of a social revolution, even though we did not commit any acts of violence.

Freedom of Expression. Freedom of expression is being undermined in the Corpus Juris system. In England, any negative religious expression is forbidden under the proposed changes to the law. This joins Catholic countries like Canada in making religious communication illegal by making the leap in thinking that this speech incites violence and are therefore terrorist in nature. They have redefined the meaning of the words "terrorism" and "hate speech" and broadened it to include the words of every group that they plan to censure.
Racism and Xenophobia.
Label such speech and information as antisocial and negatively associate it with other traditional hate speech that is abhorrent. Since they are inferring that such beliefs encourage terrorism, that buzz word automatically causes people to suppress all rational evaluation. What ultimately occurs is that the speech is associated with other speech of the same label and the group is then unfairly associated with other negative groups. Just because I believe in free speech and a pornographer or pedophile believe in it does not mean that I support them or their actions. We support the same goals of free speech for everyone for vastly different reasons. The righteous would like to support free speech only for the righteous. As for the definition of righteousness, they will know it when they see it or make a law defining it.
Look at one law proposed for England. It incorrectly defines my aversion to a belief as an aversion to an individual. The church has an aversion to heretics to the point of advocating mass murder, but it does not call that racist or xenophobic. This technicality will not matter when they take over the world.

> The new plans define racism and xenophobia as aversion to individuals based on "race, colour, descent, religion or belief, national or ethnic origin. The offences covered by this proposal include public incitement to violence or hatred for racist or xenophobic reasons, and directing, supporting or participating in the activities of a racist or xenophobic group. For these conducts, a "minimum maximum" penalty of two years is proposed. The public dissemination of racist material by any means, including the Internet, must also be regarded as a criminal offence. 3

Once a belief has been defined as hatred, the law does not require that the individual takes actions to deny the hated group of life, liberty, property and the pursuit of happiness. Instead it immediately declares that it "incites violence" and is therefore punishable.
It is therefore a crime of the conscience and a crime of possibilities. I have a right to hatred but not to violence. I have a right to hate sin, hate oppressors and oppression. In the real world a crime is a crime of action. Welcome to the Bizzaro world where the thought police rule! We are living on Orwell's farm. Communism is not the enemy. Religion is. Or at least imposed religion and imposed ways of thinking.
Let us look at three important provisions that will stop all religious speech.

1. Inciting Hatred Or violence. The very nature of the prophecy is not positive for the church. God instructs us to tell people to leave that corrupt religious system. If that is hatred then God asks me to say it. But do I support force or violence? No. The bible instructs us to walk away if people are not responsive.
   The fact that we do not support burning church buildings or killing people or denying their freedom is not considered. The law assumes that any negative speech causes violence. Negative speech does not automatically mean violent speech or hate speech. Negative speech hurts but it cannot kill. People who hate kill. It is impossible and illogical to force concensus or agreement by regulating what can be discussed. And who has the right to decide what we should agree on? The church thinks it does. I think it does not. I disagree.
2. Being Involved In A Racist Or Xenophobic Group. Once a belief is labeled as hate speech, the group who teaches this can be labeled as a hate group or terrorist group. Under the current law, my church could be labeled a racist group and every member everywhere could be charged with belonging to a terrorist group. Just because we say that prophecy identifies the Roman Catholic church as the whore of Revelation who controls the kings of the world.
3. Public Dissemination Of Racist Material (Internet). All our publications, Internet sites, evangelistic crusades could be banned and we can be jailed for five years.
   Why? Not because we fired a single shot, or failed to help the poor of all races, gender, religions or sexual orientation. Not because we burned churches. Only because we made a statement that we honestly believe comes from God.

Sunday, The Family Friendly Day .
The enforcement of the false Sabbath has been interpreted by Adventists to be the Mark of the beast. It is therefore interesting that Europe has created Sunday laws as labor laws. It is illegal for a business owner to give Saturday off instead of Sunday. Sunday is the only day allowed to be given as a day of rest.
All European nations must be in compliance by August 2003.
The rhetoric links Sundays with support of families and social order. Giving any other day off, even if the employer and employee agree, is considered to be perverse and immoral!
Again we find ugly words being used to describe religious beliefs that do not interfere with other people's rights.
With rhetoric like that it appears that these are not labor laws but the enforcement of religious laws against people who have a different belief. The church has no respect for any other religion. It has no respect for freedom of conscience and openly says so.

Causing mental harm | 1369 | No | ICC War crimes | Article 6(b). Genocide. Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group | Churches branded as sects. So countries like France call conversion efforts religious mind control.
Birth control medication | Humanae Vitae | No | ICC War crimes | Article 6(d). Genocide. Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group | The Vatican has convinced the United States not to support clinics that distribute birth control medicine in poor nations
The Corpus Juris system openly denies freedom of expression by calling a broad category of speech expression terrorism. As of 2003, the Patriot Act does not do this. However, under the power to declare certain groups terrorist, we have a loop hole through which we can censor any group. Notice that the Corpus Juris system includes the ICC rules as a catch-all law to make certain actions illegal that sovereign nations may not agree with. Since the nature of crimes that the ICC is supposed to investigate were so outrageous, people assume that they will not run afoul of the law. But soon British citizens will find that it is unlawful to take a birth control pill.

Catholic Policy

> "Nothing is possible unless one will commands and all others obey."
> Adolph Hitler.

Why is the church after so much power? And why is it sealing up all avenues of dissent? It is not simply a thirst for power. It is a conviction that the Pope has the attention of God and that this is the will of God for all people. And through the Pope God can subdue all powers and make them conform to His will, for their own good.

- The Role of the Pope. He is the divinely appointed ruler of all religious and secular affairs. All other groups spread heresy and it is his right and duty to stop them because heresy places a person in eternal hell fire.

  > Malachi Martin has already stated in his book, "The Keys of this Blood," that the pope will not tolerate any belief systems that oppose his, not on a civil or church level. In John Paul II the world will behold a tyrant who will coldly execute direct orders against those whom he deems are heretics or immoral. Moreover, like his papal predecessors, John Paul II will carry out his "Godly mandate" in the name of Christ, or perhaps Mary. May God help us all. - By Kathleen R. Hayes February 1991, NRI Trumpet Page 3
  > You will find these ideas in the original book on pages 137, 287, 345, 492, 493.

- Heresy. No one has the right to be wrong! All Protestants are heretics.

  > In their eyes, their regard and respect for democratic principles impose upon them the obligation - the religious as well as the civil and political obligation - to defend every person's right to be wrong. Every person must have the right not only to believe in Hell of the damned and Heaven of the Saved, every person must literally be assured the right to choose Hell or Heaven. That obligation carried to the extreme not only sets the Minimalists apart from John Paul; it sets them against him as well. It sets them apart from the holy father because democratic principles cannot take precedence over divine revelation. No one can be forced to believe in heaven or hell or to choose one over the other. Nevertheless, it is axiomatic for John Paul that no one has the right - democratic or otherwise - to a moral wrong; and no religion based on divine revelation has a moral right to teach such a moral wrong or abide by it. (The Keys of this Blood. Page 287)

  Ruled by god?

- Church and state and Religious Liberty. The separation of the church and state is an immoral concept.

  > "Religious liberty is merely endured until the opposite can be carried into effect without peril to the Catholic Church." -Bishop O'Conner of Pittsburg.

  > If Catholics ever gain sufficient numerical majority in this country, religious freedom is at an end. So our enemies say; so we believe" -The Shephard of the Valley, journal of the late bishop of St. Louis.

- The United States Constitution and Freedom of Expression. It will tolerate non-catholics until they can be safely banned. This appears to be the strategy by making churches register.

  > "But Constitutions can be changed, and non-Catholic sects may decline to such a point that the political proscription [ban] of them may become feasible and expedient. What protection would they have against a Catholic state?" - The State and the Church, pages 38,39, by Miller and Ryan, imprimatur of Cardinal Hayes.

  > They [Catholics] must penetrate wherever possible in the administration of civil affairs ... all Catholics should do all in their power to cause the constitution of states, and legislation to be modeled on the principles of the true Church." - Encyclical of Leo XIII.

- Persecution.

  > "The Catholic Church has persecuted ... when she thinks it is good to use physical force she will use it ... Will the Catholic Church give bond that she will not persecute? ... The Catholic Church gives no bonds for her good behaviour." - Western Watchman, December 24, 1908

  > The rector of the Catholic Institute of Paris, H.M.A. Baudrillart, revealed the attitude of the church and her leaders toward persecution. "When confronted with heresy," he said, "she does not content herself with persuasion, arguments of an intellectual and moral order appear to her insufficient, and she has recourse to force, to corporal punishment, to torture." The Catholic Church, The Renaissance, and Protestantism, pages 182-183

  > Mr. Raywood Frazier, in the booklet "Catholic Words and Actions," presents documentary proof of the intensive persecution of Protestants and those who are not Catholics in Columbia, South America, between 1949 and 1953. The Catholic Church had the support of the Columbian government in the destruction of many churches, and the liquidation of more than 1,000 documented cases -- some of whom were shot, drowned, or emasculated. He says there is evidence of over 60,000 killed. Pope Pius XII awarded the President of Columbia with one of the highest awards which the Church bestows, and praised Columbia for its example of the Catholic faith." (Pages 59,60)
  > The defense of Roman Catholics to this presentation is as follows: "Communists destroy churches because they are God's enemies; Catholic's destroy churches because they are God's friends ... Against such men - founded churches ... Catholics in Latin America should arise and wipe them out with fire." - John J. Oberlander, in The Voice of Freedom, 1954, page 20.

History Lesson: Bolting the Door through Civil Law
On the night of the Huguenot massacres, the government and the church secretly met to make laws to justify what they were about to do. The Edict of Nantes was repealed. Protestants had lost their civil rights.
The history of the revocation of the Edict of Nantes and the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre should be a warning.
The Hook: Blackmail and Terrorism. The priest confessor used by Louis XIV would not absolve him from his sins unless he removed Protestantism from the land. Instead, he was threatened with hell and eternal damnation.
Louis XIV in turn threatened the Duke of Savoy with military invasion if he did not exterminate the Protestants from the Piedmont Valley.
Secret Plans. As soon as they had the king on their side, they immediately sent letters to disseminate a plan. They coordinated well. The Protestants were clueless.
The Bait: False Ecumenism. The week before the St. Bartholomew's day massacre, all Protestants were hailing the new cooperation of both churches and the king was Protestant. The government was on their side. Church leaders had just conducted and approved of his marriage to one of their own. Protestants saw the shining path of a brand new future ahead.
Peace and safety? No! Sudden destruction? Yes!
Starting that night and within two days 100,000 were dead and their leaders were consigned to a slow death as galley slaves.
The Trap: Political Trojan Horses. With the cooperation of the political leaders, they had already ordered troops to surround or close access to the villages so that the Protestants could not escape. They had agreed upon a signal of a ringing bell to simultaneously begin the slaughter. They had made plans for the slaughter at the administrative level and communicated them to the lowest levels. In the previous years, Catholics had pretended to be Protestants and systematically started to gain positions as the political leaders of Protestant cities. So why was there a preoccupation with passing law in the dead of night? In their warped minds do they believe that it is just if it is lawful? Yes.
Reusing a Successful Military Strategy. We see the same pattern happening now. In Europe the church is obsessed with having the new European constitution acknowledge the "Christian roots" of Europe. They are equally obsessed with having civil law reflect Catholic doctrine. They also are requiring Protestant churches to register so they can know which groups are operating. They have taken over schools, political offices, courts and key media positions.
This is because the acknowledgement of Christian heritage means that the state is acknowledging the authority of the church over their existence. Consequently, they can demand that the states promote religious laws and perform civil executions based on these laws.
Churches must register so that they can be controlled if they gain too much ground and so that they can be banned at the right moment. When the global terror occurs, they are in a position to use this organized infrastructure and power to their advantage.

The Benefits of Burning Heretics at the Stake
Just in case you believe that these are past beliefs, remember that Malachi Martin wrote his book in 1990. Also, look at the following discussion on a Catholic history forum hosted by the Eternal World Television network.

I do not think that current Catholics should feel guilty or continue to bear the shame of the past. They did not commit the atrocities. But I think we should all learn from the errors of the past. However, if they justify the actions, or pretend to be sorry just to gain the upper hand or are not vigilant about the belief systems that fueled this behavior then they are in danger of unleashing these horrors on the world again. It was therefore disconcerting to find the following information being promoted by the leadership of the church. Do not dismiss this as the ideas of a fringe element.
Is it possible that current professionals could advocate torture? Look at this interchange at the Catholic (Eternal World Television Network) EWTN History Forum. The entries have been deleted, but were preserved by another web site (1).
Dr. Warren H. Carroll, Ph.D is the original moderator at the site.
The discussions begin with a statement on May 13, 2002 and continued until August 2002. The original writer scorns religious freedom and advocates the benefits of burning heretics. Dr. Carroll agreed with his statements and those of others for the following reasons:

- Mental Awareness means that heretics can still repent if they are burned alive

  > Does it seem logical that heretics were burned alive, with their mental faculties intact, to give them one last chance to repent before being sent into the "eternal fire"? Could it be that burning an individual at the stake was seen as a merciful death, as a means of giving that person one last chance to save his or her soul before final damnation??? I have read that "burning at the stake was believed by some medieval authorities and scholars to liberate the sinner from his or her formerly damned state and offer some hope of salvation to the now 'cleansed' soul".

- It is a "Good Thing" because Heretics Confessed and saved their souls.

  > From the perspective of an obstinate heretic who was taken to the scaffold to be executed but who recanted before dying, the Inquisition may have ultimately been a "good" thing, assuming, of course, that the person went to Heaven who would have otherwise gone to Hell, except for the "grace" of the Inquisition.

- Catholic Countries saved from heresy do not abort babies. Fewer heretics were killed than aborted babies.

  > If you think that the Inquisition was evil or misguided, just consider the state of those countries today where the Inquisitions were the most active - Spain, Portugal, and Italy. Nearly everyone in those countries is Catholic, and consequently, all three of those nations have the most restrictive abortion laws in the world.
  > Over the course of six hundred years, the Catholic Inquisitions sent between forty to sixty thousand individuals to the scaffold to be burned by the secular authorities. This is less than half the number of abortions done in the United States every month.

  Note: I disagree with the murder statistics. About 100 million were killed. Many more were tortured or exiled or robbed.
  Italy has one of the highest abortion rates in the world. But because it is a smaller country than the United States, the number of abortions may technically be less.
- Burn a few to save the many

  > I think that the popes during that time felt that the killing of heretics was just. To figure, wouldn't it be a lot better for the general population if a few mainstream heretics were killed, so that the whole population was not "infected" by the heresies of the few? What I am trying to say is that it wasn't a terrible idea. Kill a few heretics to save the eternal souls of the population.

Dr. Carroll then made this response to those who were concerned about the rhetoric.

- Saving Souls from Hell

  > Traditionally, burning at the stake had always been the penalty for heresy because, as previous posters have pointed out, heresy was believed to consign souls to hell fire. That is why this practice was followed.

- Revolutionaries

  > Heretics are revolutionaries against the Church, and if they are given a free hand can and will imperil the salvation of millions and begin the upheaval of society. Ask anyone who knew the Communist revolution in Russia or Cuba what horrors revolution brings.

- It is not Safe to Advocate Burning Heretics in this Climate

  > I certainly do not advocate the restoration of the burning of heretics, because in the present climate of opinion it would hurt the Church.

The implication is that when it is safe they will restart the murders. Thank God there are people in the church with some wisdom.
After several Catholics expressed their horror over the comments, and Dr. Carroll appeared to be saying that he does not advocate burning heretics now, Matthew Bunson took over and he blatantly states that no apology is needed and that the actions of the church in the Inquisition were right and legal. because:

1. Temporal rulers have the right to administer capital punishment.
2. The states were catholic, therefore they derived their authority from the catholic church.
3. The heretic fomented social revolution.

   > A heretic was both a proliferator of doctrinal error and a social revolutionary. To be a heretic meant one was dedicated to overthrowing both the Church and the temporal order.

4. The church killed no one. They just determined if the accused was a heretic and turned the person over to the government for punishment. The civil punishment for heresy was death.

Notice the subtle promotion of a lie. It seeks to prove that we are violent people who want to overthrow the government. They subdue the government. They change the laws and the proceed to suppress all peaceful religious opposition. And try to blame us for a future violent social revolution. This is strange because it claims that our argument that churches should not be involved in politics is an immoral position. Now it is trying to accuse us of plotting to overthrow the very government that it claims we are immoral for not trying to take over?

Legal and "By the Book". Why is the church so obsessed with changing laws?
Matthew Bunson, August 2002 who replaced Dr. Carroll on the EWTN History forum.

> Lastly, the inquisitions were not only not bad, but were good. Why? Because they were an advancement over the mob violence and vigilante justice that proceeded them. Everything was usually by the book, carried out by the due 'controlling legal authorities'. If a man was executed, you can at least be sure that the accusations against him were true.

Persecuted By The Law
All legal persecutions in free societies occur when a distinction is made between different groups of people that seek to impose a lesser legal status on one group.

> "What good fortune for governments that people do not think."
> Adolph Hitler.

In any successful military campaign we can see the strategies of Sun Tzu. The Nazis followed a strategy that is similar to the tactics being used today. Since the 1990's, we have already created the legal and social infrastructure that is needed for our future persecution.

1. The Common Enemy or Threat. Rallied around a lie. The Jews were the enemy who were trying to cause the fall of Germany. The fact that the Jews were hated around the world proves that they could not have that kind of power.
2. Legal. Created laws that punished the Jews.
   - "Protective Custody" law of February 28, 1933 authorized the police to make arrests on suspicion of criminal activity and incarcerated without benefit of legal counsel or trial.
   - Nuremberg laws (1935). Jews lose citizenship and basic rights.
   - Nazis persecute those opposed to their political views (1935).
   - Jews lose the right to vote. (1936)
3. Opposition. Dissent stifled. They killed, arrested, censored and publicly ruined those who disagreed from the beginning.

   > The Nazi leader Goering said the following about propaganda.
   > "Why of course the people don't want war, that is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along."
   > "All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger."

4. Communications Controlled. Media Propaganda. Used the movie theatres, radios, public rallies and systems to remove sympathy for the Jews and enforce the arguments against the "enemy". The censorship imposed did not allow the emergence of an effective opposition.
   - Jews cannot attend concerts and other forms of entertainment. (1938)
   - Jewish children can only attend Jewish schools (1938).
   - Jews cannot own radios (1939).
   - Jews cannot use public telephones (1941)
   - Jews cannot attend school, subscribe to newspapers, own electrical equipment like typewriters (1942)
   - Jews cannot use public transportation or own bicycles (1942)
5. Economic. The Jews were systematically robbed of their businesses, ability to work and their possessions. They could only sell at extremely low cost or their possessions were legally taken. They could not buy food at the high prices. Even in death they removed gold fillings from their teeth.
   - Jews can no longer lead businesses (1938).
   - Jews must close and sell their own businesses and turn over the proceeds to the government (1938)
   - Jews must give up driver's license and car registrations (1938)
   - Jews cannot attend concerts and other forms of entertainment. (1938)
   - Curfews (1938)
   - Forced into ghettos (1940)
   - Concentration camps (1940)
   - Jews cannot use public transportation or own bicycles (1942)
   - German businesses work in the ghettos. Jews must sell their possessions at very low costs to buy high priced foods.
   - "Extermination through work". Jews are used as forced labor for German businesses. The work camps were usually located near businesses.
6. Identification and Containment. Concentration camps and Ghettos.
   - Curfews (1938)
   - Jews must carry ID cards and passports marked with a "J". (1938)
   - Must wear the yellow star of David (1939).
   - Forced into ghettos (1940)
   - Concentration camps (1940)
7. The Crime. Jews are plotting to overthrow the government and contaminate the race.
8. Death. They killed the Jews by direct and indirect means.
   - Death infrastructure. They secretly constructed these locations.
     For years conspiracy theorists have been claiming that they plan to use abandoned military bases and sports stadiums to hold large groups. They are doing this in Guantanamo Bay.
     It makes you wonder why states spend billions of dollars for corporate welfare to construct sports stadiums when we know that the government treasury will not recoup the cost.
   - Containment. Jews could not leave the Ghettos.
   - Exploitation and Starvation. They engineered an impossible situation and "let nature take its course".
     They reduced the food rations to 184 calories per day and starved the people in the Ghettos. This is the equivalent of three pieces of life saver candy or one cup of milk. They provided no public utilities, so they froze to death or died of diseases during the winter.
   - Trick. They encouraged those who wanted to work to go away on a train ride. The victims were taken to death camps, or sealed into the transportation vans and killed with carbon monoxide gas, or forced into slave labor where their average life expectancy was months.
   - Extermination. Firing squads and gas chambers which used Zyklon-B, a cyanide product, carbon monoxide and exhaust fumes piped into a sealed vehicle.

The Concentration Camp System
Camps were organized for various reasons.

- Prisoner of War. For political prisoners
- Slave Labor (Work Camps). These were often satellite camps or locations where people went to work, for free, for the German factories, businesses and the war production.
- Children. Children and teenagers who were not good enough to be germanized were sent to these locations before they were sent to an extermination camp.
- Extermination.

The United States has used civilian detention camps. These were used to house Japanese Americans during World War II. Plans were made to confine millions of African Americans in the turbulent sixties. Presently, there are other plans for us according to conspiracy theorists. Some facilities, such as Guantanamo Bay, are located off the soil of the United States in an attempt to circumvent the law. With the exposure of the tortures at Abu Ghraib, this conspiracy has proven true.

- Sports Arenas. Holding areas that can instantly be made as secure as military bases.
- Abandoned Military Bases. Large facilities with existing security systems.
  Rex 84 Program. There is a claim that over 600 empty prison camps are located across America. Whether or not a system of camps such as these exist, it is entirely possible that these could be used for such purposes. Now that we have the Guantanamo Bay example, we can see that is it cost effective to locate these camps in the warmer climate, using cheap construction systems such as wire cages and tents.
- Navy Ships. Floating in international waters. These huge ships can hold a large town. They can also be used to circumvent the law by dynamically changing the concept of jurisdiction. One can instantly be under international law or United States law by moving a ship several meters.
- USA Territories and Foreign Bases. Guantanamo Bay is the best example. Prisoners are held in wire cages. Chicken coops. Countries like Egypt will do some torturing for us.
  Update (November 2005). It is now confirmed that we have secret prisons around the world. In former Soviet Union Gulags in places like Poland and Romania. In Thailand and other Middle East countries.

The Slavery System
As usual, established churches, businessmen, bankers and politicians prove that they can rise to the top of the pond like the rest of the scum when it comes to sound moral judgment. Money. Money. Money. They all fought for slavery because it affected their purses.

1. The Common Enemy or Threat. Abolitionists who wanted to take away their property and cause economic ruin.
2. Legal.
   - Fugitive Slave Act of 1793. Required all escaped slaves to be returned to their masters.
   - Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. Required residents and government of free states to return runaway slaves under penalty, removing the right of slaves to go to court, and giving bonuses or promotion to officers for capturing slaves.
   - Missouri Compromise (1820). States were determined to be free or slave states when they joined the union
   - 1842. The owner of a fugitive slave may recover him under the Fugitive Slave Act of 1793
   - 1842. District of Columbia 10pm "colored curfew." At 10: PM, all "colored" people out without a pass were liable to arrest, fine and flogging.
   - Dred Scott Decision 1857/03/06. Supreme Court Chief Justice Roger Brooke Taney ruling that in effect calls the Missouri Compromise of 1820 unconstitutional. The fugitive slave Dred Scott brought suit in 1848 to claim freedom on the ground that he resided in free territory, but the court rules that his residence in Minnesota Territory does not make him free, that a black may not bring suit in a federal court, and that Congress never had the authority to ban slavery in the territories,
   - Gag Rule. (May 18, 1836) Congress ignored abolition petitions signed by over two million people. Congressmen who supported slavery prohibited the consideration, referral and printing of these petitions.
3. Communications Controlled. 1841, Maryland passed a law requiring a penalty of ten to twenty years imprisonment for any free black having any materials relating to abolition in his possession. So it was a crime to possess a copy of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" which was written in response to arguments for slavery.
4. The Crime. Being or supporting blacks.
5. Opposition. Rich businessmen and financial institutions used their influence to prevent the legal system from ending slavery.
6. Identification and Containment. Nature made identification easy. With a permanent black color tattooed on their body the Negro could be identified anywhere and anytime.
   Containment in plantations and by checking permission passes outside the plantation served to keep the Negro in his place.
7. Death. Unlike the Jews, Negroes were valuable property who were to be breeded like livestock and controlled. So they suffered centuries of abuse. Here they were sold, traded, separated from their children, beaten, uneducated, overworked and poorly fed. Death was not economically feasible.

The Power of One Man
There is an Adventist prophecy about the changing of the United States Constitution to support religious views. Since the formal process for changing the constitution is so long, many thought that we could see these issues on the horizon. But we were wrong. The prophecy has come through for some issues and we were oblivious. We changed the constitution by making laws that are unconstitutional. This is because laws are being debated in secret and the media has chosen to ignore the issues and impose a dampening effect on the public through their silence. This is also possible because of how laws are made and through the power of one man.

- Congress. When congress makes laws, it does not go through a constitutional test until a victim challenges it in court. However, this could take years before the case reaches the supreme court. That is enough time for a persecution.
- Veto. When the house of representatives and the senate pass a law, the president can veto the law if it was not passed by a two thirds majority.
- Recess Appointment. If the congress will not vote for the person that the president wants, he can wait until they go on their vacation and install that person through his own authority.
- Executive Order. The president can make laws on his own and bypass congressional debate by issuing an executive order. This was how laws that financially support the church were issued. In fact, there are a whole series of executive orders waiting to be implemented during emergency situations that give the authorities persecution powers.
- The Signing Statement. The constitution guarantees that before a bill becomes law it must be passed by both houses of congress. If a president does not like a law he can veto that law. However, Mr. Bush has given himself the power to both sign a bill into law and exempt himself and his little gang from the provisions of the law by simply writing in whatever he thinks at the time of signing.
  In six years he has made over 750 such statements. Many of them are designed to bypass congress and the constitution. These statements give him the power to set aside the laws when they conflict with his legal interpretation of the Constitution. Here are two examples of this.
  - No Protection for Whistle Blowers.

    > Law. The Department of Energy, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and its contractors may not fire or otherwise punish an employee whistle-blower who tells Congress about possible wrongdoing.
    > Signing Statement. The president or his appointees will determine whether employees of the Department of Energy and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission can give information to Congress.

  - The Right to Torture.

    > Law. US interrogators cannot torture prisoners or otherwise subject them to cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment.
    > Signing Statement. The president, as commander in chief, can waive the torture ban if he decides that harsh interrogation techniques will assist in preventing terrorist attacks.

  He exempts himself from oversight and criminal wrong doing while giving himself the right to punish any opposition. This is the absolute power of a fascist dictator.
- Sneak and Cheat. When all other attempts fail, place pieces of a law in between other laws between the time the issues are debated and changed, the final printing of the agreed changes and the final vote the next morning. Generally, law makers have no reason to read the hundreds of pages of law again because good people are supposed to be honor bound not to sneak changes into the law.
  One such law that they twice tried to sneak in is that the Secretary of Homeland Security has the right to waive any law at his sole discretion in defense of the country. And that no court has the right to challenge this! Each time they got caught, they claimed that it was a mistake. Ignorance made them make the law so broad. (Section 102 of H.R. 418, the REAL ID Act of 2005)
  It is my personal belief that they have or are going to have changes made in this manner that will affect free speech and penalize any words or current legal actions by their opposition. The question of constitutionality is only addressed later and all the Federal courts and the supreme court are now stacked with people who do not care about these rights. By January 2006, the Supreme court may have five Catholic members. At least four of them agree with all positions of the administration and have views that come straight out of the hell hole called the Inquisition. At least two members of the Supreme Court belong to Opus Dei, a respected Catholic organization where the members daily torture or "chastise" themselves to learn discipline. Imagine the implications. We are in the hands of people who inflict pain on themselves.

The executive order is a powerful tool in the arsenal of one man, the president of the United States. With the stroke of a pen, the president can sign into law any of his wishes that the legislative branches in the House and Senate would not pass. The faith based initiative was passed by executive order on December 12, 2002. By ignoring the fact that in supporting "food and shelter and not bible", the law allows the church to divert money that it once used for "food and shelter" so that more money is available for "the bible". Therefore the government is directly supporting religion. If one particular organization gets a disproportionate amount for its programs, the government will be supporting one religion over another.
A series of executive orders were created for the federal government to take over critical systems in a time of national emergency. This eliminates the red tape of the law, congress and the senate. I maintain that all this national and international preparation is overkill. Even without the spectre of such extreme emergencies, the swift action of the government after September 11 demonstrates that it can take days or weeks for the prophecies to be fulfilled.
Executive order 11921, which was issued by president Carter, also provides that when the president declares a state of emergency, congress cannot interfere for six months.
While it protects government officials and institutions, it also prevents dissident groups from gaining access to public opinion or global influence.
None of these laws are evil. But it does demonstrate that our constitutional rights can vanish overnight with just the right real or manufactured crisis. And, this power can be given to officials that we did not elect. I wonder which religious institution has the majority of their personnel in these positions?
I do not know. I know some. I do not want to know anymore. Even when I take the position that I do not want to know this information, it eventually assaults me in the face because these people usually end up declaring their affiliation somehow.
I already found out that possibly over 90% of the media personnel who dominate our political thinking through their political news analysis shows are Catholic. The supreme court has a Catholic majority. So does congress. Let us hope that they are not as vulnerable as Louis XIV.

IRS: The State Controlled 501(c)(3) Church
The first amendment says:

> Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

The Death of Protestantism
Sooner or later, when it becomes expedient, Protestant churches in the United States will suddenly find the most restrictive interpretation of the tax codes. Sooner or later, when it becomes expedient, Protestant churches in Europe, South America and the former Soviet Union will find their status as legally registered churches will be revoked. Sooner or later, Protestantism will face extinction.
The church will suddenly face closures, financial hardships and ridicule. Death by a thousand technicalities. It is then that the God fearing right wing Christians will wake up. Immorality without control is self destruction. But, morality by legislation breeds tyranny.

But the Papal system says:

> No man has a right to choose his own religion.

The vast majority of churches have organized as 501c3 entities for several reasons. While it grants tax exempt status, 501(c)(3) organizations sacrifice their free speech because they cannot do the following:

1. Political Activity. They may not support or oppose candidates for public office.
2. Legislative Influence. They may not influence legislation.
3. Public Policy. They may not speak openly against anything that is inconsistent with public policy.
   That prohibition appears to be true. The courts can regulate conduct or actions when it has a compelling interest to do so. Such compelling interest may be a reflection of the social and political climate. This was the reasoning in the case of Bob Jones University Vs United States. Their tax exempt status was revoked because they had a policy that forbid interracial dating.
   However, there are sites that claim to list guidelines about prohibited topics. Many seem so ridiculous that I will not list them and possibly perpetuate a falsehood. The pattern seems to be that your message must be "politically correct". It cannot assault the hearer's sense of mental well-being, self esteem or sexual orientation. This includes criticism of other religions and exposing conspiracies.
   Update (November 2005). Earlier this month we learned that the IRS has been sent to a church in California because the pastor said that perhaps their support of the war may have been wrong.
   Contrast that to the fact that during the 2004 elections the president openly complained to the pope that the United States bishops needed to do more to promote his candidacy. Many churches all across America were telling people how to vote by passing out flyers, saying "vote your conscience" while demonizing the candidate they hated. One pastor told all democrats or anyone who did not support the president to leave. Before the war churches were advocating this war because "it was the will of God" and good citizens should "support the government".
   In Indiana one teacher, who had served for twenty years, was dismissed for answering a question about the peace movement. She had to sign documents that stated that she would no longer mention peace in her class room. She was still fired and later she learned that the reason for her termination was categorized among the same reason for terminating child molesters. I do not know what the categories were but I suspect it may be something like, "distributing offensive materials to minors". What was the offensive material? She said, "being for peace does not mean that you are unpatriotic".
   Another teacher was dismissed because she gave students information on how to support the candidate of their choice.
   None of the pro-war religious speech was penalized, while a pastor who probably examined the moral issue of torture, who saw the suffering of Iraq and heard all the puffed up lies started to publicly express his regret.

The outcome of this is the following:

1. Government and Politics. You have the duty to warn about any government or organization that is identified by the prophecy. But this may violate the prohibition against political activity.
2. Persecution or Immoral Legislation. You should have the right to warn against laws that are immoral or dangerous. You certainly have a duty to tell your members to disobey an unjust law.
3. Popular Culture. You automatically give up your free speech and the right to condemn any immoral activity.
4. Politically Correct. You cannot preach the gospel if it offends another group.

The Future Criminals

Current Status
What is the current status of the legal systems that are important to prophecy? What is most distressing is the open efforts to ban the preaching of the requirements of God. Sooner or later they will ban interpretations of prophecy. I am almost tempted to say that the one good thing about the religious right taking over American politics is that fundamentalist free speech will be protected. Then I look at who is behind all the Protestant political groups and how some big leaders appear to have been hypnotized by Rome, and I wonder ... if ...

- Sunday Laws. The European Union introduced Sunday laws in 1993. After a ten year transition period, all countries should have complied by August 2003. These labor laws are to be enforced and employers are not allowed to give their employees any other day off except Sunday.
- Persecution Laws. All these laws are waiting, ready to be turned against any group that is defined as a terrorist. Religious speech is being called hate speech that leads to terrorism. The American population psychologically accepted these after September 11.
- Torture. We assumed that when the government tortured it would be the person found with a bomb, or manufacturing poison. We dismissed the thought that it could be farmers, taxi drivers and barbers. People whose only reason for being arrested was because they were males and a potential threat.
  So we were appalled at stories of the rape of a sixteen year old boy by an army translator. We squirmed at the horrible stories of abuse and torture at Abu Ghraib until our guilt lured us into thinking that it is necessary. Then we started making noises about stopping these news stories. We compared our atrocities to theirs and decided that we were humane. Government officials even refused to call these methods torture. They insisted that we did not violate the Geneva Convention with any of these actions. Homosexual torture and rape, beating, sleep depravation, left naked, exposure to extreme cold or heat, ridden like an animal, attached naked to a dog leash, drowning, suffocating, handcuffed in painful positions, isolation, smeared with feces, bitten by dogs, forced to get food from a toilet, hooded, forced to denounce your God and embrace a false god.
  So, tired of the guilt and blame, the American population psychologically accepted torture by its government in May 2004. We began to make excuses. We started blaming the media for airing these stories. We will need public support for the torture of the innocent that is coming.
- Identification. In October 2003, Home Secretary David Blunkett of Britain introduces plans for a compulsory national Identification card. On November 23, 2004 the queen introduced plans to enact these laws during a speech at the opening of parliament. All European Union states except Britain and Ireland use national identification cards.
  The United States requires all children above six months old to get a social security number.
- Free Speech and Hate Crimes Legislation. Europe regulates free speech by labeling some as hate speech. So does Canada and Singapore and other "free" western countries. All of this activity began after 1991.
  United States. In the United States the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is emerging with powers to limit unacceptable speech by economic sanctions. Right now they are targeting the most outrageous behavior, but what role will they play in the future? Will they try to control the internet in the way that Canada and Europe are doing? This web page could be illegal in these places. And I have uttered no curse words or calls for revolution or armed struggle.
  Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act of 2001 (LLEEA) (S.625/H.R.1343) . The Interfaith Alliance is urging congress to pass this law which addresses hate crimes. Apparently, current law is not good enough. It only permits federal prosecution of a hate crime only if the crime was motivated by bias based on race, religion, national origin, or ethnicity, and the assailant intended to prevent the victim from exercising a "federally protected right."
  I looked at that summary and wondered what else does this law need? It seems to cover everything.
  So if Goober decides to deflate my car tires or deflate my heart pump because he does not like the color of my skin then this law applies. He removed my federally protected right to life. I always thought that murder and vandalism laws should be enough. But now I see that this extra emphasis was a Trojan horse law that was intended to introduce the next round of enhancements.
  The churches believe this enhancement of the law is needed because they intend to stamp out any outward expression that can disturb any protected groups. So, although legislation cannot remove hate from the hearts and minds of individuals, hate crimes legislation can help to create a society that is unbending in its intolerance of hate-motivated violence. This "violence" could include "attacks motivated by bigotry".
  Eventually words are going to be included in one of the weapons of attack. Do not laugh. The French and Germans are banning non-Christian religious hats to fight terrorism!
  So if Goober decides to write an article on the internet attempting to prove that color of my skin makes me mentally inferior. He has attacked my race.
  Eventually, if I say that the Bible predicts that the Papacy will attempt to install a one world religion by force just as it did in the Middle Ages then I have attacked a religion. And I will be prosecuted and persecuted, just as the Bible predicted!
  Venezuela. Since 1999, Venezuela has started adopting strict laws to control the media. The government declared that "freedom of speech is not an absolute right of humans". They have made the media companies liable for anything said by any guest. So if there is a dispute on facts such as the inquisition, it is best not to risk saying those things. Some of these laws were first proposed to protect children from violence and sexual content. But, when they were passed they included all this other stuff that has nothing to do with child protection. Trojan horse laws. Instead we have the concepts of inciting hatred and violence and disturbing the public order, national security and promoting respect for the leadership and government.
  The Venezuelan press may have created the excuse that was needed to make these laws. In the past they have been less than objective and balanced in their coverage of political news.
- Interesting Religious Developments. Many other developments around the world are making it impossible to preach the message of God from the bible. This will place a chill on our efforts to preach the three angel's message. The world is making it legally impossible to give God's last warning.
  All the world will allow is a milk toast gospel even if it contradicts the instructions of God.
  - Canada. Bill C-250 forbids anyone to publicly offend a homosexual in speech or writing. Any speech that makes them uncomfortable is punishable with a five year prison term. The European Union is instituting similar laws based on banning hate speech.
    Sharia Law. Canada is proposing to institute Sharia (religious Law) on Moslems. The ultimate outcome of this is that they will one day institute Canon Law on Christians under the same theory. Canada is a Catholic majority.
    Tactics like these point to a reason why the church is insisting that the European Union encode in their new constitution, the Christian roots of Europe. Next they will institute Canon Law.
  - European Union. It is blasphemy to criticize the European Union!
  - Greece. It is a crime to convert others. They also required religious affiliation to be placed on identity cards. Even if they cease this practise, the legacy information remains in the government records for a long time.
  - France.
    - Conversion. Wants to make religious mind control (conversion) a crime.
    - Religious Symbols. The announcement was made on December 19, 2003, that they are proposing to ban all religious symbols from public places. The reason given is that they are a secular society and they are trying to fight terrorism. The fact is, they are 88% Catholic. The problem is that they are targeting the Muslim head dress and the Jewish yarmulke (beanie). In what appears to be a concession, they also banned large crosses but small crosses and small stars of David are allowed.
      What is actually happening is that they are preserving only the symbols of Christianity and removing the dress code of religions that have been around for centuries. Muslim women want to cover their hair. I have seen Jewish men with their cap but not with a star of David chain. In their concession, they are allowing a symbolism that is not widely used, while still maintaining Christian symbols. The true effect is that Christianity wins at the expense of Islam and Judaism.
      The question is, what is the big problem? The only answer I can see is that they are actively trying to root out all non-Christian activity. How could destroying centuries old customs promote respect? How does a scarf and a beanie destroy racial harmony? This quest for outward conformity will lead to pressures for inward conformity.
      This year I have been reading reports of Jews wanting to leave because of the increasing anti-Semitism. The anti-Semitism appears to be coming from the very people who are claiming to be the guardians of cultural pluralism. Let the Jew or the Moslem choose to hide their hats in public if they do not feel safe. Do not force them to give up a symbol of piety that may be a requirement by their God.
      During the Dark ages, Jews were forced to wear the star of David so that they can be identified. In the current age of the computer, such identification is available at the press of a button. So in a moment of "deja vous", it is strange that as they are banning outward symbols of this religion that they are once again "forcing" a dress code on the Jews.
  - Sweden. A Swedish court sentenced a Pentecostal minister, Ake Green, to one month in jail under the "incitement law". Why? He offended homosexuals in a sermon.
  - Spain. In spite of the separation of church and state, since 1979 the Spanish government has been supporting the Catholic church under a "temporary" agreement. But since August 2004, the government has been considering extending this support to finance other "Major" religions. The proposal is intended to include mosques so that they are less dependent on financing from militant groups.
  - Germany. Blasphemy laws make it an offense to insult religious communities.
    Religious Symbols. In January 2005, Germany announced that teachers cannot wear religious head wear because it is political and not religious and will cause terrorism. However, nuns are allowed to wear their head wear because "Catholicism is the tradition of the region". Now, you see why the church was hell bent on including this law about recognizing the "religious heritage" of Europe.
  - Singapore. It is forbidden to preach anything that offends another religion.
  - Australia. Race and religious hate laws.
  - England. Public Order Act 1986. There was an attempt to define religious speech as terrorism. But the new European Union laws make this definition. Since the terrorist train bombings in July 2005, the British government is prepared to regulate more activities in its terrorist laws.
    - Shelter. Providing safe houses or building bombs or other material support.
    - Training. Providing training or receiving training.
    - Hatred. Promoting hatred.
    - Incitement. Clerics who incite violence by praising the actions of terrorists.
    The definition of incitement is a problem. The first time they made their laws in 2002, one member of parliament tried to define criticism of another religion as incitement to violence. Under strict definitions, providing training and education could include bible studies that are critical of other religions. The government also announced its intention to monitor websites.
  - Council on Europe. 44 European countries, Canada, Japan and Mexico. In 2002 they adopted a measure to criminalize internet hate speech. The law bans.

    > any written material, any image or any other representation of ideas or theories, which advocates, promotes or incites hatred, discrimination or violence, against any individual or group of individuals, based on race, colour, descent or national or ethnic origin, as well as religion if used as pretext for any of these factors.

  - Religious Liberty 2009. I am updating this information after three years because we have come a long way. More governments are adopting hate speech legislation that does not protect religious speech. Britain is about to require Christian organizations and churches to hire homosexuals and people whom God forbids that the church put in leadership positions. I guess this is a result of churches accepting government financing.
    Blasphemy Laws. Hate speech has even got more focused in the form of blasphemy laws. On 10 July 2009, Ireland passed new blasphemy laws under the defamation laws.

    > For the purposes of this section, a person publishes or utters blasphemous matter if (a) he or she publishes or utters matter that is grossly abusive or insulting in relation to matters held sacred by any religion, thereby causing outrage among a substantial number of the adherents of that religion, and (b) he or she intends, by the publication or utterance of the matter concerned, to cause such outrage.

    The law authorizes the authorities to enter and search your property at any time. All that is required is that people claim that they are "outraged" and I suspect that they can always show that you intend to cause the outrage if you do not stop publishing the outrageous material. Under this law the following is forbidden.
    - Atheist. They cannot say that God is imaginary.
    - Pagans. They cannot say that Christianity is bloodthirsty, violent or promotes slavery.
    - Christians. They cannot insult Islam, Allah or Muhammad.
    - Jews. They cannot say that Jesus is not the Messiah or that it is idolatry to worship Him.
    - Protestants. You cannot say that Catholic bowing to images show idolatry, or that the Pope or the leadership is the Antichrist or the great whore of Revelation 17. Even if the prophecies tell you to warn the world about the identity of the Antichrist.
    If you cannot say what you believe is true, I wonder when they will force you to say that these things are true. When will they be simply content with your silence? When will they want you to declare the affirmative? When will the Jews be forced again to convert to Christianity or say that Jesus is God and the Messiah? Very soon! We are being told to forget the lessons of the crusades and inquisition by law.
    Such laws only protect the Catholic church, because European law seem to be protecting the Catholic religion at the expense of all other beliefs under the guise of peace and brotherhood. Speaking of the Antichrist, the bible says that "by peace he shall destroy many" (Daniel 8).
    French president Sarkozy is now beyond banning hats in schools. He is now trying to pass a law banning Muslim hats in public. I knew it would happen.
- Sports. I have noticed that Europe appears to have a ban on sporting events on Sunday. Wimbledon and the "Tour de France" all have Sunday as a designated rest day. I wonder when this will hit the United States?
- Dirty Tricks. Until they can use the law to silence the opposition, those in power are using lies and several dirty tricks to squash an unpopular message.
  - SPAM Complaints. Groups will lie that they are receiving spam from your organization so that the Internet Service provider will block all mail with your address. They can use the same tricks to block your Web page by filtering it like a porno site.
  - SPAM Generators. Hackers and virus makers will send SPAM and dirty e-mail using your address as the sender. Then you can be blocked under the SPAM quarantine.
  - Provider Control. If the powerful elite become the owners of Web hosting companies and ISPs then they can terminate your hosting contract at will for unacceptable content.

It cannot be alleged that any of us advocates, promotes or incites violence. Neither can it be claimed that we advocate, promote or incite discrimination. Nor can it be said that we advocate hatred. But, under the new definition and criteria they are trying to make the case that we are inciting or promoting hatred because our speech is negative. They have created a legal trap that pushes us into a corner.

I have no problems with laws that punish physical violence against any person for any reason. I have a problem with laws that regulate my thoughts and my right to express them. Especially when these laws are based on some nebulous idea about what could happen even though we do not advocate violence or discrimination. The United States does not currently regulate speech. However, through the FCC and the media the voice of the popular culture is attempting to do that.

Strange Bedfellows
Here is an interesting dilemma. Many "liberal" organizations and immoral businesses might be our refuge of last resort. It might be the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) which will be the only voice left with the courage to investigate and fight for you. If web sites are forced to remove you, it might be those who trade in the sex industries who may be willing to host your site. Of course the right wing will pounce on this development and milk it for all it is worth. Guilt by association.
Some of this seems unsavory. So you have to carefully choose your associated sinner of choice. No wonder Jesus was the friend of tax collectors, drunks and prostitutes. Thank God He left us an example. Never be afraid to associate with the true victims, even while they are still in the grip of immorality. Never be afraid to associate with anyone who is willing to fight for everyone.
While there should be no merger between you and a web host that trafficks in child exploitation, a case can be made for radical organizations dedicated to protecting prostitutes. While their ultimate goal is to free women from this nightmare, they have had to approach this problem with accepting their careers while making safety and education the first priority.
While the ACLU defends "immoral" causes, in the end they are not dedicated to promoting an immoral cause as much as they are dedicated to freedom of expression for all. It is this quality that will allow the organization to speak up for you, even if you are a "god zealot" dedicated to their destruction.

The Bad News Prophet As Terrorist
In ancient Israel, corrupt kings would beat, imprison and kill the prophets who would not prophecy what they wanted to hear.
In the last days a similar persecution might happen because God will once again give dreams and prophecies. Several legal charges can be brought against a prophet in addition to the social stigma associated with their words.

- Inciting Violence. Prophecies or just the teachings of the bible already bring these accusations. The evolution of this thinking has been fully discussed above.
- Treason. A country could charge that the messages help the enemy and are disloyal to the nation. In fact, this accusation has been made against those who criticize the Patriot Act.
- Terrorist Threats. Any prophecy about a future event in a specific place or against a specific group can be called threats. If the prophecy is not about a natural disaster, God help the prophet!

Summary

And he had power to give life to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast could both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. Revelation 13: 15

The world is teetering on the abyss. A single fearful event could send us tumbling into the darkness of night where despots ruled and conscience is forbidden. Where people hid their Bibles by baking them into loaves of bread. Where the elite minority who have exclusive access to god can prescribe a bitter pill for what ails our sick society. Where torture, not reason is the weapon of choice for religious conversion. Where union of church and state is the method by which these horrors occur. We are journeying into a nightmare that will become the Inquisition zone.
Many good people in the secular world are recognizing the terrible signs. The difference between them and me is that they have not recognized the importance of the religious angle. And, they mistakenly believe that the pendulum will swing back to the center.
Not this time.
By changing laws and limiting free speech they will be able to progress to their plans of implementing religious laws and enforcing worship. All for the benefit of mankind.
It is clear that we are migrating to a global system of laws that is modeled after the evil systems in the Inquisition. In fact we have migrated. Where the vast majority of the hundreds of millions of victims were innocent. Where we will be told who, what, where and when to worship. And it will be illegal to disobey. And, for the protection and maintenance of a peaceful society, we will be killed.
God help us!

Destination: Animal Farm. My purpose was to show how global laws are being changed to reflect the global community that the prophesied final powers want to rule. Religious pluralism will be sacrificed under the guise of defeating terrorists. Under such ridiculous reasoning, the French and Germans have outlawed hats! Soon they will penalize beliefs, and potential beliefs and thoughts.
Whether or not emergency situations are being created or allowed so that we will surrender our rights is a topic best left to conspiracy theorists. Because, no matter how we get there, prophecy dictates that we will. So my concern is not about the journey or the method of transportation or the engineers. I am concerned that we have all been hijacked on this ride that we think is a marvelous vacation.
And, I just wanted to point out that we are no longer on the journey to this strange universe.
We have arrived.

> A farm is taken over by its overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of progress, justice and equality. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned. A razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible. When Animal Farm was first published fifty years ago, Stalinist Russia was seen as its target. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell's masterpiece has a meaning and message still ferociously fresh. 5
