Gospel Truth vs. Honest Truth

Christian or not, we all know the story of the first Christmas, or more accurately, the story of the birth of Jesus. What we “KNOW” has been related to us from the biblical accounts, and Christians take those as the gospel truth.

But is the GOSPEL truth REALLY the truth?

Probably not, and there are political reasons for that. What we read in the Bible was related orally for years, decades and in some cases centuries before being written down by mere men, later translated by mere men, and perhaps most importantly, later edited by not-so-mere-men, as in Kings to be used for more political purposes.

Common sense dictates that stories told orally over any period of time change, or become embellished and often bear elements of bias related to the perspective of the story teller. Translations often alter such stories as well, and ultimately, political rulers of the day edit such stories in whatever way suits their needs.

Why The Gospel Truth Is Anything But

Belief is defined as: “an acceptance that a statement is true or that something exists. Trust, faith, or confidence in someone or something. Something that is accepted, considered to be true, or held as an opinion : something believed. an individual’s religious or political beliefs. especially : a tenet or body of tenets held by a group.”

Belief, by its very nature requires a degree of uncertainty in that certainty requires proof while belief requires faith in the absence of proof. So, what is faith? Faith is defined as: “strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof.”

It would be remiss not to mention that while belief and faith can be disproven by scientific fact, scientific fact cannot be disproven by belief and faith, but before some reading this get too upset, allow me to point out that in some cases, scientific fact has disproven belief and faith in ways that lend credence to some of the stories contained in the Bible.

Embellished By Faith, Predicated On Facts

The story of the birth of Jesus, as told in two books in the Bible, is a good story full of hope, and promise. That story eventually gave rise to a major religion, Christianity, and it has been told, and retold for the past couple of thousand years.

It’s a story…but it’s a good story.

That story has Jesus being born in a manger, because there was no room at the inn, shepherds, wise men, gifts meant for a King, and so much more. Christians around the world celebrate the story of the birth of Jesus, and hold it dear. There’s nothing wrong with that.

But it is a story that relies on faith rather than on fact…and one should not try to replace the latter with the former.

Let me explain…

Liberals…Victims of Their Own Desperation

Liberals are growing more desperate by the day, but the desperation didn’t start yesterday. In many cases, it is hard, if not impossible to pinpoint the nexus of desperation. Most often, desperation is a progression between cause and effect…it is something that sets in over time, and circumstances.

That is not the case with the sort of liberal desperation we are seeing, and let’s be honest in this…we can trace the nexus of it to a specific point in time, and a specific event.

The sort of liberal desperation we see day in and day out now, the desperation that is growing more convoluted by the day if not by the hour had a very specific moment of origin.

The date was…May 3rd, 2016…

Politics and The First Christmas

Posted on by

By Craig Andresen – Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

chr 1It is difficult to escape the political undertow in today’s world. Politics is in play in everything we do, from our daily routines to events half way around the world. Our schools, our streets and roads…regulations imposed on everything from our businesses to the water we drink…wars, conflicts, diplomatic relations with nations both friend and foe…we can’t get up in the morning, proceed with our daily business or go to bed at night without political interference.

This time of the year, we do our best to ignore, to whatever extent possible, the world of politics in favor of time-honored traditions that revolve around Christmas or Chanukah, but we should not forget the role of politics IN Christmas…the first Christmas to be precise.

Just as the death of Jesus on the cross was politically motivated, so too was the story of his birth.

While the scriptures reveal that Joseph and Mary traveled to Bethlehem to pay their taxes, the truth goes politically deeper than that.

The Dawn of a New Religion

Posted on by

Okay…so I’ve been giving this some quality thought.

If L. Ron Hubbard…a science fiction author can start up a religion that sticks pins in a Leah Remini doll, having at its core, several well-known and questionably talented members of the Hollywood asylum for the terminally nuts…and if some dude in prison serving time on assault charges, who helped to co-found a fascist organization…the Black Nationalist organization, could invent from thin air…Kwanza…and con folks into believing it was some authentic African holiday…

Why couldn’t I come up with a religion of my very own?

So…having put my full effort into it…I am now looking for converts to…

Mad Maddow Goes Mad Cow

By Craig Andresen – Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

Liberal Derangement Syndrome now has a poster boy…Rachel Maddow from MSNBC…and if any but liberal loons were in charge of the mainstream media, Maddow’s broadcast on Tuesday night would officially be listed in a coroner’s report as a suicide.

For hours before going on the air, poster boy Maddow hyped her show by claiming that at 9pm eastern time, she would be releasing President Trump’s tax returns, and she punctuated her hype with the word, “seriously.”

No kidding…”seriously.”

“BREAKING: We’ve got Trump tax returns. Tonight, 9pm ET. MSNBC. (Seriously).”

Obviously, Maddow is desperate, as is MSNBC as a whole, to get a ratings point ahead of that of a three day old wiener on a gas station weenie roaster. Maddow claimed that an investigative reporter, who turned out to be David Cay Johnson, a Pulitzer Prize winner, had found…in his mailbox… Continue reading →

Weekend Edition: Benghazi TREASON – An Orchestrated Convenience

Posted on by

tnp eagleWhat in the hell was former Deputy Director of the CIA, Mike Morrell, TALKING about last Wednesday under sworn testimony before the house committee?

Seriously…

WHAT THE HELL???

He agreed to appear at the hearing, to in his words, “Lay out the facts,” regarding the altering of the CIA’s Benghazi talking points memo because, again in his own words,  “The ethical code under which intelligence officers carry out their responsibilities calls for total objectivity.”

What followed was, in fact, THE most SUBJECTIVE testimony, full of abject contradictions, he could have possibly delivered.

It was, to be blunt, nothing less than a stunning exercise in ass covering that left more questions than it answered including one very important query…

Exactly who’s ass was he covering FOR???

Michelle Bachmann, who doled out perhaps THE most pointed and forceful line of questioning during the hearing has her theory on that answer.

According to congresswoman Bachmann, Mike Morrell was, “taking the fall” for Hillary Clinton.

“She couldn’t have a better person to take the fall for her because Morrell was involved in rewriting the talking points as he was the No. 2 at CIA,” congresswoman Bachmann related to WND in a candid interview. Bachmann was submitting that Morrell was cleaning up the mess to allow Hillary, “WHAT DIFFERENCE, AT THIS POINT, DOES IT MAKE” Clinton to make a 2016 run for the oval office, “so, he can come in authoritatively [and] say, ‘No, that’s not the story. The story is the fake story we tried to push.'”

Perhaps but, Morrell would also have to be confirmed in 2016 and, the way things are shaping up for the 2014 midterms, even IF Hillary runs and wins, she may well be facing a republican majority in the house AND the senate rendering such a confirmation highly unlikely.

That said…
