My favorite whipping boys, Gordon and Rendsberg try valiantly in their book, “The Bible and the Ancient Near East” to insist, among other things, that there was no direct borrowing from Mesopotamian cultures..that any similarity between the two Flood stories, between Napishtim and Noah or the Ten Commandmants and the Code of Hammurabi and many other such were purely accidental. They at least have the grace to admit that there is no evidence for any grand Temple of Solomon…but that’s only so they can lie all the harder elsewhere. Had Israelis discovered one brick…just one mud brick they could identify with that pious fraud they’d have rebuilt it in the skies. The greatest minds of the 20th Century were all Jews…in politics Karl Marx ruled the century…in medicine Freud had the most profound impact and in science Einstein was the man. Or greatest historians, philosophers, musicians and artists have been drawn from among their ranks as well. But they have had their nationalist stooges too. If Aprim had any brains he would have gotten his degree in history instead of mechanics…and then lied his fool head off anyway…which is what people like Gordon and Rendsberg had the sense to do. They are hardly scholars of any merit, but they do have the degrees to satisfy the minimum requirements…this allows them to publish books filled with whopping lies and distortions which can be taught at serious colleges to bushy-tailed co-eds…while Aprim’s books go abegging at conventions. The claims made on behalf of the ancient Hebrews, the Keystone Kops of the old world, are just too ludicrous to credit. I’ve had my fun with their book elsewhere but what concerns me now are those parts which specifically shed light on this business that there was anything worth yawning over in the message of Jesus…as it’s come down to us through the Roman emperor, Constantine who, together with his incredibly lucky mother, Helena, practically invented this religion, turning Jesus into the best type of Roman citizen any emperor could ask for. Jesus did not invent love. Nor kindness nor self-sacrifice…those things were alive and well in the ancient world as any number of poems by the Egyptians and everyone else will attest to. Jesus is credited with having hung around with misfits, the lame, crippled and morally questionable…in other words the outcast of their day. Indeed it was from among the dregs of the Hebrew community his first converts came. Who else in that day and age would agree to abandon his parents, wife and children to go walk around the country barefoot? Who else but people already disconnected from their culture? The first apostles were either inept idlers or worse…men incapable of earning their daily bread by the sweat of their brow, as were the other fishermen…but who were pressed into service by Jesus to go fish for men instead. It wasn’t their manifest ability to catch anything which appealed to Jesus, it was rather that they had nothing better to do and so could afford to “follow” him. And indeed Christianity is a good religion for such types because it promises them rewards out of all measure when compared to their merits…and even that it turns into a positive by saying you don’t have to deserve its rewards, except by believing you deserve them…that’s all it takes….that’s like telling Paul all he had to do to fill his nets was to believe he “deserved” to have his nets filled….that they would have remained empty all the same was precisely the reason Paul decided to “believe”…because he’d have to wait to find those fish after he died…something no real and worthy fishermen could afford to wait on…because in the meantime he would have watched his wife and children die of hunger…real hunger. Even this he could turn to advantage by saying that they too would now find more fishes than they ever could have expected of him…even though they had to do a little dying first. Jesus could not have been such a fool…or such a good shepherd for the Roman emperors…at least never willingly. The ancient Hebrews were not a handy people…they were not the kind to build much of anything on earth…therefore their fascination with metaphysics was nothing more than a way to befuddle themselves, while waiting for the nets to fill all by themselves, or temples to rise through miracles of faith. Across the way the Assyrians, Babylonians and Egyptians had quite different gods…gods who expected to inspire their followers to actually do something…on earth. The so-called sacrifice of Jesus was nothing more than human sacrifice as once practiced by the Hebrews…mixed in with the ritual slaying of the scapegoat. Whenever the Hebrews found their Jerusalem besieged for back-taxes, they would lock themselves up tight and wait out their enemies. If this brilliant tactic didn’t work they would resort to serious measures…the king would lead his eldest son, who could be all of five years old…twenty years old or eight months…to the top of the city walls from which he could be seen by the enemy host as well as his own people and of course his god too. In view of all he would treat his son and heir very like he had the goat that morning at the Temple altar/abbatoir whose throat he’d slit in hopes that goat blood would appease his god…holding the bewildered boy, dear old Dad would arch the kids neck back…overcoming the panicked struggles, if the lad could struggle….and draw his knife exactly the same way across a neck one hopes he’d kissed at least a few times, severing his darling boy’s major arteries, draining him white as the people below awaited the sign from on high…that sign never came but the invading hosts might become uneasy at the thought that the god of the Hebrews, now full of blood, might be aroused to anger at them for having brought his darlings to so “desperate” a pass….never desperate enough to get them to make weapons or trade metaphysics for practice with bow and arrow…depending instead on the “outrage” of their god to scare their enemies off. This mentality we are told was the beginning of our modern culture of Peace and Love…it’s into the hands of just such people that we’ve given the most powerful weapons the world has ever seen…as the Christian Romans once possessed in their day. And what is Jesus but the first born and only son of god offered up for human sacrifice in the hopes that the enemies of the Hebrews will relent? And all Christians are merely the descendants of the first Hebrews to believe that Jesus was the supreme sacrificial goat..and that’s it. That’s all Jesus is…a human sacrifice meant to get you something in return. And to make sure you’re well corrupted you have to agree to eat his cadaver and drink its blood. Peace and Love? --------------------- |
