Christmas -- It's a Lie.

Christmas -- It's a Lie.

There's no Messiah that's going to save us.  If we are to be saved, we are going to have to do it ourselves.  That's not going to happen while we pin all our hopes on the second coming of Christ.  As we sit around like stumps on a log, spouting idiocy like "It's all in God's hands", we give away our potential.  We are creators.  If we place the made-up Creator before us, we become nothing, capable of nothing, accomplishing nothing, good for nothing.  That's why organized religion is here, to control us, to diminish us, to enslave us.  Evil essentially has a free hand in the world while we exist in this comatose state of subservience to a Hollywood God.  One look at the state of the world confirms it.  Constant orchestrated wars; mindless pursuit of profit; the uncaring rape of the environment; corruption of the very code of life via GMOs; deliberate poisoning of our air, food, and water; radioactive disasters with the potential to be extinction-level events; and the deliberate whittling away of our basic human rights by criminal governments.  Evil is winning big time.  There is no justice in the world.  Do you want to know why?  The only justice that exists in the world is the justice we make!  If we sit on our hands, thinking all this evil is just part of God's plan, we will certainly reap the predicted apocalypse of the Bible.  But there will be no rapture for the righteous.  Rapture is just another word for justice, and the only justice in the world is the justice we make.  And we aren't making any.

That's the Lie.  That's Christmas.  That's our demise unless we change it.
