(2Pe 3:3-5) Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, [...] For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water [...]
"But residing in the heart of [CJ Werlemen's] journalistic mediocrity was a quiet discontent. An irritation greater than the discomfort of a long taxi ride with 'Delhi belly'. And what irritated him most was other people's mindlessness. To him, nothing exceeded the mindlessness of seemingly intelligent people believing they were eating a dead Jew in the form of shi$$y wine and stale crackers." (About CJ)
http://www.cjwerleman.com/about-cj.html
(This will be the first of many posts, as I go through and review CJ's assertions about "mindless" Christians.)
I will take CJ's statement at face value, "seemingly intelligent people believing [...]" leads me to believe he has a beef with the Catholic Church and not Jesus. Any serious student of the Scripture can readily observe that communion was meant to be symbolic. (Transubstantiation, the Catholic doctrine does not align with Scripture. Where in Scripture does it say the wine and bread are literally turned into the blood and body of Christ?)
(Mat 26:26-29) And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
(Attention to detail reveals, "I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine." Why didn't he say blood, if it was meant to be literal?)
(1Cr 11:24-26) And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
Reading the above passages, their straight forward interpretation is, the bread and wine represented his body. How foolish, how silly, to insist, literally, one is eating the body and blood of Christ. How absurd!
I suppose in the end it will turn out, that he, like Dawkins, is nothing more than a silly little boy whose never grown up and accepted the reality that he is accountable to his Creator. For, as it stands, the foundation upon which all philosophy sits is, "How did we get here?", has yet to be empirically proven. And I suppose, just as Dawkins admitted, intelligent being(s) (i.e. aliens) seeded earth (Expelled: No Intelligence Required. - Stein), so too CJ must first defend his thesis, that Jesus lied, by first convincingly bringing forward evidence of humankind's genesis. (By the way, it's funny to watch Dawkins squirm as he queried about his beliefs. CJ likes funny, right?) And to date, I have not seen evidence to support a non Intelligent being theory on humankind's origin. (I am product of the Public school system and State undergraduate / graduate degrees.) To this day, I have found the theories of Big Bang chemical evolution, stellar and planetary evolution, organic evolution, macro-evolution lacking. (Micro-evolution or adaptation to one's environment can be readily observed. But lateral, specie to specie, macro-evolution, has not been observe red, nor found to be defensible as would hold up in a court of law. (Again, I've taken all the courses, and read the rebuttals to the various, so-called "missing" links. (Read Bones of Contention by Lubenow for an excellent breakdown.)
“Creation and evolution are inferences based on circumstancial evidence. Creation and evolution are thus theoretical inferences about history. […] neither qualifies as a scientific theory (both are outside of empirical evidence).” “Creation and evolution are best characterized as explanatory scientific models which are employed to correlate and explain data related to origins.” (Gish)
The task then, is to weigh the evidence, and find which theory is best supported.
As I've said, I've been through the programming (school) and found by questioning everything, evolution as a satisfactory theory on origins, to be lacking.
Guaranteed we'll find that CJ is "willingly ignorant" of Scripture (as I've shown above, let's read Scripture, and not mix Catholic doctrine, "Solo Scriptura").
Can't wait to get my mind on CJ's book, "Jesus Lied"!
(Oh, I'm praying for ya buddy!)

JFK understood Eisenhower's concern and elaborated on the issue:
JFK’s Address before the Press (1961):
Today no war has been declared — and however fierce the struggle may be, it may never be declared in the traditional fashion. Our way of life is under attack. Those who make themselves our enemy are advancing around the globe. The survival of our friends is in danger. And yet no war has been declared, no borders have been crossed by marching troops, no missiles have been fired.If the press is awaiting a declaration of war before it imposes the self-discipline of combat conditions, then I can only say that no war ever posed a greater threat to our security. If you are awaiting a finding of "clear and present danger," then I can only say that the danger has never been more clear and its presence has never been more imminent.It requires a change in outlook, a change in tactics, a change in missions — by the government, by the people, by every businessman or labor leader, and by every newspaper. For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence — on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed. It conducts the Cold War, in short, with a war-time discipline no democracy would ever hope or wish to match.Nevertheless, every democracy recognizes the necessary restraints of national security — and the question remains whether those restraints need to be more strictly observed if we are to oppose this kind of attack as well as outright invasion.

Operation Northwoods (Wiki)
Operation Northwoods, or Northwoods, was a false-flag operation plan that originated within the United States government in 1962. The plan called for Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) or other operatives to commit genuine acts of terrorism in U.S. cities and elsewhere. These acts of terrorism were to be blamed on Cuba in order to create public support for a war against that nation, which the US had recently labeled as communist under Fidel Castro. One part of the Operation Northwoods plan was to "develop a Communist Cuban terror campaign in the Miami area, in other Florida cities and even in Washington."Operation Northwoods included proposals for hijackings and bombings followed by the introduction of phony evidence that would implicate the Cuban government. The plan stated:"The desired resultant from the execution of this plan would be to place the United States in the apparent position of suffering defensible grievances from a rash and irresponsible government of Cuba and to develop an international image of a Cuban threat to peace in the Western Hemisphere."Several other proposals were included within the Operation Northwoods plan, including real or simulated actions against various U.S. military and civilian targets. The plan was drafted by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, signed by Chairman Lyman Lemnitzer and sent to the Secretary of Defense. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Northwoods
Operation Amalgam Virgo (Wiki)
Amalgam Virgo 01 (June 1-2 / 2001) Operation Amalgam Virgo is a CINCNORAD joint task counter-terrorist and field training exercise (FTX) carried out in Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida on early June 2001. NORAD sponsored the multi-agency planning exercise involving the hypothetical scenario of a cruise missile or UAV launched by a terrorist group [1]. Osama Bin Laden was pictured on the cover of the proposal for the exercise. Key military players involved in the exercise also included personnel from the 1st Air Force battalion, the U.S. National Guard, the U.S. Reserve forces, and the U.S. Navy.Several naval ships including the USS Yorktown and the Navy Aegis cruiser were dispatched to the Gulf of Mexico as part of the multi-service anti-cruise missile operation. Military land personnel from the 1st Air Force also engaged in gathering radar information on low-level targets by using the Joint-Based Expeditionary Connectivity Center (JBECC), a mobile shelter capable of being deployed to high-risk regions while providing early warning signals on cruise missile attacks.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amalgam_Virgo

Tears For Fears
Mad World (Tears For Fears)
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Goin' nowhere, goin' nowhere
Their tears are fillin' up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dyin'
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad world, mad world
Mad world, mad world
Children waitin' for the day they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sits and listen, sits and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson?
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dyin'
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad world, mad world
Mad world, mad world
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dyin'
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad world, mad world
Mad world, mad world
A raunchy young world
Mad world.

This appears to be the first time, however, that the intelligence community and Google have funded the same startup, at the same time. No one is accusing Google of directly collaborating with the CIA.

Group Calls for Hearings Into Google’s Ties to CIA and NSA
http://www.infowars.com/group-calls-for-hearings-into-googles-ties-to-cia-and-nsa/print/
A History of Google Government Ties – (Google accused of criminal intent over StreetView data)
In 2005, In-Q-Tel , described as a venture capital firm set up by the CIA to “identify and invest in companies developing cutting-edge information technologies that serve United States national security interests,” was linked to Google through the sale of the corporation’s stock.
Google sold Keyhole, Inc., to the CIA’s In-Q-Tel in 2004. Keyhole does work in “geospatial data visualization applications” of the sort that work as the engine behind GoogleEarth.
In addition to Google, the CIA and the spook community have compromised Facebook and the social networks. Last December, the Electronic Frontier Foundation sued the CIA, the US Department of Defense, Department of Justice and three other government agencies for allegedly refusing to release information about how they are using social networks in surveillance and investigations.
Facebook, like Google, is also linked to the CIA’s In-Q-Tel. The social network received venture capital from Accel Partners. Its manager James Breyer was formerly chairman of the National Venture Capital Association, and served on the board with Gilman Louie, CEO of In-Q-Tel. Dr. Anita Jones also served on the In-Q-Tel’s board. She had been director of Defense Research and Engineering for the US Department of Defense.
“Although the project was initially conceived by media cover star Mark Zuckerberg, the real face behind Facebook is the 40-year-old Silicon Valley venture capitalist and futurist philosopher Peter Thiel. There are only three board members on Facebook, and they are Thiel, Zuckerberg and a third investor called Jim Breyer from a venture capital firm called Accel Partners,” writes Tom Hodgkinson of The Guardian.

WIRED: Google, CIA Invest in ‘Future’ of Web Monitoring
The company is called Recorded Future, and it scours tens of thousands of websites, blogs and Twitter accounts to find the relationships between people, organizations, actions and incidents — both present and still-to-come.

“The cool thing is, you can actually predict the curve, in many cases,” says company CEO Christopher Ahlberg, a former Swedish Army Ranger with a PhD in computer science.

It’s not the very first time Google has done business with America’s spy agencies. Long before it reportedly enlisted the help of the National Security Agency to secure its networks, Google sold equipment to the secret signals-intelligence group. In-Q-Tel backed the mapping firm Keyhole, which was bought by Google in 2004 — and then became the backbone for Google Earth.
This appears to be the first time, however, that the intelligence community and Google have funded the same startup, at the same time. No one is accusing Google of directly collaborating with the CIA.

Group Calls for Hearings Into Google’s Ties to CIA and NSA
http://www.infowars.com/group-calls-for-hearings-into-googles-ties-to-cia-and-nsa/print/
A History of Google Government Ties – (Google accused of criminal intent over StreetView data)
In 2005, In-Q-Tel , described as a venture capital firm set up by the CIA to “identify and invest in companies developing cutting-edge information technologies that serve United States national security interests,” was linked to Google through the sale of the corporation’s stock.
Google sold Keyhole, Inc., to the CIA’s In-Q-Tel in 2004. Keyhole does work in “geospatial data visualization applications” of the sort that work as the engine behind GoogleEarth.
In addition to Google, the CIA and the spook community have compromised Facebook and the social networks. Last December, the Electronic Frontier Foundation sued the CIA, the US Department of Defense, Department of Justice and three other government agencies for allegedly refusing to release information about how they are using social networks in surveillance and investigations.
Facebook, like Google, is also linked to the CIA’s In-Q-Tel. The social network received venture capital from Accel Partners. Its manager James Breyer was formerly chairman of the National Venture Capital Association, and served on the board with Gilman Louie, CEO of In-Q-Tel. Dr. Anita Jones also served on the In-Q-Tel’s board. She had been director of Defense Research and Engineering for the US Department of Defense.
“Although the project was initially conceived by media cover star Mark Zuckerberg, the real face behind Facebook is the 40-year-old Silicon Valley venture capitalist and futurist philosopher Peter Thiel. There are only three board members on Facebook, and they are Thiel, Zuckerberg and a third investor called Jim Breyer from a venture capital firm called Accel Partners,” writes Tom Hodgkinson of The Guardian.

Top Secret America: A hidden world, growing beyond control:
The top-secret world the government created in response to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, has become so large, so unwieldy and so secretive that no one knows how much money it costs, how many people it employs, how many programs exist within it or exactly how many agencies do the same work.

President Eisenhower warned us of the “'Military-Industrial' Complex”:
President of the United States (and former General of the Army) Dwight D. Eisenhower used the term [“military-industrial complex”] in his Farewell Address to the Nation on January 17, 1961:
“A vital element in keeping the peace is our military establishment. Our arms must be mighty, ready for instant action, so that no potential aggressor may be tempted to risk his own destruction...
This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence — economic, political, even spiritual — is felt in every city, every statehouse, every office of the federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society. In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals so that security and liberty may prosper together.

"You Americans, you think you can escape history. You live in the present." - The American (2010)
Rome fell SEPTEMBER 4, 476AD.
In the centuries preceding, Rome was overrun with illegal immigrants: Visigoths, Franks, Anglos, Saxons, Ostrogoths, Burgundians, Lombards and Vandals.
They first assimilated, many working as servants, but soon came so fast they did not learn the Latin language.
Though militarily superior and marching on advanced road systems, the highly trained Roman Legions were strained fighting conflicts worldwide, and eventually troops had to be brought home from the frontiers, such a Britain.
Attila the Hun committed terrorist attacks, wiping out whole cities.
Rome had a trade deficit, having outsourced its grain production to North Africa, and when the Vandals captured that area, Rome did not have the resources to retaliate.
"Bread and the Circus!" Citizens of Rome were kept distracted with violent entertainment in the Coliseum and Circus Maximus, living on welfare and free bread.
One Roman commented:
"Those who live at the expense of the public funds are more numerous than those who provide them."
Tax collectors were "more terrible than the enemy."
Rome was crippled by huge government bureaucracies and enormous public debt.
A history of court favoritism, infidelity, exposure of unwanted infants, perverted bathhouses, and sexual immorality led 5th-Century historian Salvian to write:
"O Roman people be ashamed...Let nobody think otherwise, the vices of our bad lives have alone conquered us."

Wired: Darpa Wants to Predict Deadly Pathogens with ‘Prophecy’ & Psychic Doctors
The Pentagon’s far-out research arm has been zeroing in on the danger of mutating pathogens, and the corresponding problem of drug resistance, for years now. The agency is already funding tobacco-based vaccine production, a seven-day plan to thwart biothreats, and prescient viral infection detectors. And they’ve even set their sights on psychic medics, with a 2007 program that sought to turn docs into all-knowing illness predictors.
Now, Darpa wants the powers of premonition to wipe out viral threats altogether. They’re hosting a workshop for a new program, called “Prophecy,” that’ll develop methods to predict the rate, location and likely mutations of viral agents.
