"Irreverence is the champion of
liberty
and its only sure defense."
Samuel Langhorne Clemens
"It is when your spirit goes wandering upon the wind, that
you, alone and unguarded, commit a
wrong unto others and therefore unto yourself.
Much in you is still
man, and much in you is not yet man, but
a shapeless being that walks asleep
in the mist searching for its own awakening.
Oftentimes have I
heard you speak of one who commits a wrong as though he were not one of you,
but a stranger unto you and an
intruder.
If one falls he falls for those following,
a caution against the stumbling stone.
You cannot separate the just from the unjust and the good from the
wicked; for they stand before the face of the sun even as the black thread and
the white are woven together.
And when the black thread breaks,
the weaver shall look into the whole
cloth, and he shall examine the loom also.
Let him who would lash the
offender look unto the spirit
of the offended.
If any of you would punish in the name of
righteousness and lay the ax unto the evil tree, let him see to its roots;
he will find the roots of good and
bad, fruitful and fruitless, all entwined together in the silent heart of
the Earth.
What
judgement pronounce you upon him who though
honest in the flesh yet is
a thief in spirit?
What penalty lay you
upon him who slays in the flesh yet is himself
slain in the spirit?
And how shall you punish those whose remorse is already greater than
their misdeeds?"
- Khalil Gibran, The Prophet
What distinguishes the madman
or mad woman from the visionary
poet is the way in which the
individual is treated by peers.
Dismissing suffering ideological
deviants is the root of cultural upheaval.
Apathy
isolates the persecuted
ideological deviant from community which is the very thing
that can provide relief.
"Meditation on the wrong
suffered can lead to self-pity.
It can also bring greater understanding
of opponents and forgiveness.
But
forgiveness can only follow an
awareness that one has been
wronged.
Heaping scorn on one's claims to
having been wronged, even when one plainly has been wronged, is thus at
once the most brazen and
uncharitable act.
A
man persecuted for his beliefs suffers, bitterness thwarts
reconciliation." - Andy
Nowicki
"People
engaging in honest religion
were, are and always will be heretics.
The word heretic comes from a
Greek verb interpreted as "to choose."
Heretics are
those who choose when some
small orthodoxy declares the choices closed
because the orthodoxy has found the truth.
The spirit of
honest religion,
the spirit of heresy, is the
ḦṍḸẙ ṦṕḯṝḭṰ.
It is the ḦṍḸẙ ṦṕḯṝḭṰ
that may never be fenced in, the ḦṍḸẙ ṦṕḯṝḭṰ
that is larger than all creeds,
all gods, and
all religions." - Davidson
Loehr
Socrates is forced to
drink poison.
Jesus
of Nazareth is nailed to the cross for
heresy.
Hypatia of
Alexandria is stripped naked and dragged through the streets by an
imperial Christian mob, flayed with
ostrakois and set ablaze while still alive.
purification through
punishment
Between the 12th and 14th
centuries, punishment was given a
religious quality by associating it with purification before a supreme
being.
The Imperial Christian
sycophants inflicting pain con-vinced the general populace
that they were instruments in the hands
of their supreme being performing a service by
purging corruption from the targeted
victim.
This thinking foreshadows
the eugenics movement and
private prisons.
Imperial Christian authorities claimed that
if the tortured victim suffered
sufficiently here and now on earth he, or she, would not have to undergo
the sufferings of eternal
damnation.
People accepted the authorities story:
purification of the tortured victim
exorcised the evil from within the
society – the cancer could
not spread.
Infliction of
physical pain was rationalized, justified, and blessed.
1314 Elderly Grand Master Jacques de Molay of Knights Templar
(Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon) and Geoffrey de
Charney, Preceptor of Normandy, are burned alive at the stake in Paris.
Jacques de Molay calls out from the flames that his accusers and
condemners, Pope Clement and King Philip IV would soon meet him before God.
Pope Clement dies a month later, and King Philip IV dies in a hunting
accident before the end of the year.
In 2001 the "Chinon Parchment",
found in the Vatican Secret Archives, absolved the Templars of all
heresies in 1308, before the formal papal decree disbanding the Order in 1312.
King Philip IV was deeply in debt to Knights Templar and
their demise canceled that
debt.
1316 Bernardus Guidonis acts as
Procurator General of the Dominican Order.
Practica Inquisitionis
Heretice Pravitatis offers precise information on the doctrines and
mentality of heretics in the situation of persecution and attests to the
beginnings of the extension of the
inquisition to popular superstitions.
Le Manuel Des
Inquisiteurs:
"The torture is not an infallible method to obtain the
truth; some men at the first twinge of pain confess crimes they never
committed; others bear the most cruel torments. Those placed upon the rack
suffer it with great courage, as limbs accommodate themselves to it with
facility or resist with force; others with charms and spells render themselves
insensible, and die before they confess."
"When sentence of torture has
been given, and while the executioner is preparing to apply it, the inquisitor
should make fresh attempts to persuade the accused to confess the truth; the
executioners, while stripping him, should affect uneasiness, haste, and
sadness, endeavoring thus to instill fear; and when he is stripped naked the
inquisitors should take him aside, exhorting him to confess, and promising him
his life upon condition of his doing so, provided that he is not a relapsed,
because in such a case they cannot promise him that."
Pietro d'Abano is

astrologer and professor of medicine in Padua.

eye, one seeing,
one knowing,
one love." – Meister
Eckhart

Ockham is branded a
heretic by John XXII and forced to flee into exile in Bavaria with Michael of
Cesena and other leading Franciscans.

explanation is the most likely.
William takes refuge in the court of the
Holy Roman Emperor Louis IV of Bavaria who is fueding with the
pope.
1414 John Hus teaches that Jesus, not
Peter, is the foundation of the church, publicly denounces
the selling of indulgences and
calls into question papal infallibility. Council of Constance guarantees Jon
Hus safe conduct to Constance and back. Jon Hus is imprisoned and tortured in
several attempts to get him to recant.
Jon Hus refused them all. Hands
bound behind his back, Jon Hus was chained to the stake. Wood and hay were
piled up to his chin. Rosin was sprinkled on it. Jon Hus was given one last
chance to recant and be set free.
"I shall
die with joy today in the faith of
the gospel which I have preached."- Jon Hus
"Public condemnation goes a long way in
establishing
what is and what is not acceptable in a society.
Public good will prevail if the public
demands it."
Laurence Overmire

"It is proof of a base and low mind for one to
think with
the majority,
merely because the majority is the majority.
Truth does not
change because it is, or is not,
believed by a majority of the
people."

Bamberg, presides over the Bamberg witch trials.
Von Dornheim built a
"witch-house," a prison which featured a torture chamber adorned with Bible
verses.
These trials led to the execution of 300-600 individuals, the
most notable of which was Bamberg burgomaster Johannes Junius.
Junius
confessed that while in a difficult financial state, he was seduced by a woman
who later proved to be a succubus and threatened to kill him unless he
renounced God.
At first Junius refused, but soon more demons
materialized and attacked him further, finally convincing him to accept the
Devil as his God.
He took
the witch-name of Krix and was provided with a familiar named Füchsin
("Vixen"), at which point several local townsfolk revealed themselves as
similarly allied with Satan and congratulated him.
Thereafter he
regularly attended witch's sabbats, to which he rode on the back of a
monstrous, flying black dog.
At one such sabbat he attended a Black
Mass at which Beelzebub made an appearance.
Although his fellow witches
and familiar demons had commanded him to kill his children in their name, he
had been unable to perform this sacrifice, for which he was beaten.
Shortly before his execution, Junius managed to write a letter to his
daughter.
In the letter he defends his innocence, claims that those who
testified against him secretly begged his forgiveness, and recounts the abject
horror of his torture (inflicted upon him by his brother-in-law and three
others), from which his hands still shake at the time of writing the
letter.
"For whoever comes into the witch prison must become a witch or
be tortured until he invents something out of his head - God pity him." -
Johannes Junius

(like George Walker Bush's
waterboarding) and burning to elicit confession.
"Another test was
to make them repeat the Lord 's prayer and creed. It was affirmed that no witch
could do so correctly." - Charles MacKay

| In English folk tradition
all the symptoms of "bewitchment" resemble the ones
exhibited in those afflicted with ergot poisoning. The convulsive symptoms,
such as crawling sensations in the
skin, tingling in the fingers, vertigo,
tinnitus, headaches,
disturbances in
sensation, hallucination,
painful
muscular contractions, vomiting and
diarrhea, as well as psychological symptoms, such as
mania, melancholia,
psychosis and
delirium were all symptoms reported
in the Salem witchcraft records. Their was an
abundance of rye in the
Salem region as well as perfect climatic conditions for the tainting of rye
with the ergot fungus. The ergot alkaloid ergotamine is an immediate precursor
of lysergic acid diethylamide and
therefore shares some structural similarities. |
1726 María Francisca Ana de Castrowas, a Spanish

monastery and discover them under the floors.
The chambers are full of prisoners, all
naked, many insane.
The French troops, used to cruelty and blood,
could not stomach the sight.
They emptied the torture chambers and blew
the monastery up.
2009 A woman in rural Papua
New Guinea is bound and gagged, tied to a log and set ablaze on a pile of
tires. Villagers judged her to be a witch.
"A modern civilized society,
where the conditions of life are in constant rapid change, demands
successful adaptation through
shift in intellectual outlook.
There should be an attempt to encourage, rather than discourage,
expression of new beliefs and the
dissemination of knowledge
tending to support them.
The very opposite is, in fact, the case.
From
childhood upward, everything is done to make the minds of men and women
conventional and sterile.
And if, by misadventure,
some spark of imagination
remains, its unfortunate possessor is considered unsound and dangerous,
worthy only of contempt.
Such men have been the chief
benefactors of mankind, and are
men who receive most honor as
soon as they are safely dead." - Bertrand Russell |

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational
purposes only.
This website defines a
new perspective with which to engage reality to which its author adheres. The
author feels that the falsification of reality outside personal experience has
forged a populace unable to discern
propaganda from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an
international corporate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt
version of reality on the human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any
group refuses to tolerate religious practices, religious beliefs or persons due
to their religious ideology. This web site marks the founding of a system of
philosophy named The Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie - a
rational gnostic mystery religion based on reason which requires no leap of
faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in
which each and every individual is encouraged to develop a personal relation
with the Creator and Sustainer through the pursuit of the knowledge of reality
in the hope of curing the spiritual corruption that has enveloped the human
spirit. The tenets of The Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie are
spelled out in detail on this web site by the author. Violent acts against
individuals due to their religious beliefs in America is considered a "hate
crime."
This web site in no way condones violence. To the contrary the
intent here is to reduce the violence that is already occurring due to the
international corporate cartels desire to control the human race. The
international corporate cartel already controls the world economic system,
corporate media worldwide, the global industrial military entertainment complex
and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the elevation of self-centered
behavior and the destruction of global ecosystems. Civilization is based on
coöperation. Coöperation does not occur at the point of a
gun.
American social mores and values have declined precipitously over
the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more
power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the populace in general
through corporate media by pressing emotional buttons which have been
preprogrammed into the population through prior corporate media psychological
operations. The results have been the destruction of the family and the
destruction of social structures that do not adhere to the corrupt
international elites vision of a
perfect world. Through distraction and coercion the direction of thought of
the bulk of the population has been directed toward solutions proposed by the
corrupt international elite that further consolidates their power and which
further their purposes.
