Terrorism and religion

I am a Russian writer, the author of the book “Who Killed the Twins?” I would like to talk about interrelation between terrorism and religion. Joseph Goebbels, Reich Minister of Propaganda for NAZI Germany once said: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” The official version of terrorist acts of September 11th, 2001 was the biggest lie among those which have been ever invented to deceive the whole world. People used to believe in what the modern mass media tells them about because mass media has hypnotizing effect on people.

If on a television screen wee see the destroyed building of the Pentagon and the voice behind the screen tells us that it was a passenger airplane that hit the building, we believe it regardless of whether we see the remnants of the airplane or not. We also do not notice that electric poles that situated just in front of the breach remain standing as though there was no plane; we do not notice that on the wall on the both sides of the breach there must be traces of wings if it was really “air attack”; we even do not pay attention that Mike Walter, the eyewitness of the event says: “It was like a cruise missile with wings went right there and slammed into the Pentagon.” While watching the episode of the “air attack” of the Pentagon in the documentary “America Remembers” by the CNN, we do not notice that there is explosion but there is no airplane. A passenger airplane is not as small as a fly as not to be noticed while watching the film. But we believe that there was an airplane which destroyed the Pentagon because we are hypnotized by mass media.

We are also hypnotized by church and Holy Scriptures. We think that if we are Christians all the other people who belong to other religions are sinners and unbelievers and we silently agree that all of them must be exterminated if they would not become Christians. The Moslems think in the same way. From such way of thinking the religious intolerance, division and hostility spring up. And until we understand that there is only one God who is LOVE, who is one for all mankind, we will not be able to stop terrorism.

My book offers a new theory for the cause of the horrific events of September 11, 2001. Popular theories about 9/11 that have been widely-accepted worldwide are boldly challenged. In my book, I deeply analyze the Bible and set out to prove that mankind has misinterpreted its meaning. While the book’s study is not limited to Christianity, there is much examination of the true meaning of main world religions that leads to some surprising suggestions about God’s true intentions for the people of the world. In my book, I have made an attempt to trace the hidden causes of destructive human behavior which make people to hate and kill each other. In a simple and fascinating manner, the book describes the whole cultural picture of mankind including both main religious teachings (Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Vedic culture) and quasireligios ones, such as Leninism, Stalinism and Fascism. The book reveals the thrilling history of religion origination in which the terrible pictures of human sacrifices, inquisition, religious wars and terrorist acts in the name of God are masterly depicted. Moreover, trying to understand why people hate and kill each other I has found an interesting theory of anthropogenesis by Russian professor Porshnev which states that not all the human beings are really human. According to pr. Porshnev, many representatives of Homo Sapiens are not really sapiens, they still remain beast-like animals. They are those whom philosopher Hegel has defined as "morally deranged," and Schopenhauer - as "deprived of moral consciousness." They are really animals, extremely dangerous "second signaled animals" among people. The tragedy of Beslan has proven this fact. Only beast-like animals could perform the terrible atrocities of which we became witness not long ago when the gang of terrorist took children as hostages in that small Russian town.

The book is really extremely valuable for understanding what really goes on in the world, for it contains totally new and progressive ideas which have never been offered by the scientists who study the questions of humanity and interrelation between religion and politics.

The book has been published by the Booksurge publishing company and is available for order on the booksurge.com, amazon.com and alibris.com. But it is a very small chance that the book will be noticed by people in the great mass of books which those internet sites offer for order. That is why I need your help. Without your help the book will hardly reach a reader. I invite you to discuss the book on the forum. Your opinions and your help are very valuable to me.

Thank you.
Vladimir Ratis.

 

Thanks for the post. I myself take an intrest in religions role in our evolved culture. I think the impact has been massive. I also like to examine the balancing act we play as a society, the progressives on the tip of the wave, pushing the water forward while we have the religious conservatives (and conservatives in general) as the undertow, pulling us all back towards the status quo. I think a lot of people either don't realize, or underplay the impact religion has had on our society, our laws, and our worldview in general.

 

Hello Sera,
Thank you for your interest to my personality and my book. It is difficult to make any change in the world when one is alone. But the present condition of the cultural space of the world needs to do something. Othervise, we will destroy ourselves. And the question of religion is very important issue nowadays because our religions are the strongest power that divide people. For if one once adopted, for example, Christianity or Islam or whatever, one instantly considers only his or her religion to be true. All the other who do not belong to this religion are considered to be unbelievers. And the most terrible thing about it is that in the space of religion of "salvation" (Christianity, Judaism, Islam), all the unbelievers are to be destroyed in God's fierce anger. In the I Samuel 15:3 God Jehovah says: "Go and destroy Amalec. And slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, camel and ass." This is the formula of genocide. As long as the vestern civilization use the Bible as the "Textbook of life," we will live in the world of hatered, division and fratricidal wars. In my book I try to explain this fact to people. I tried to explain that if God exist, he must to be LOVE, and LOVE cannot hate, cannot kill and perform masaccres as God Jehovah does.
Posting my letter on the forum I had in mind like minded people, because it is really difficult to fight against the terrible bloody fly wheel of religion intolerance and terrorism being olone.
I would like to ask you to tell little bit about yourself and about the books you have written.
And thank you for the wonderful, encouraging words of Gandhi and Goethe.
Yours sincerely,
Vladimir Ratis.

 

If that's all you need to be published I'm suprised I haven't moved from poetry into novels by now. You seem to stereotype a lot, for example I in my travels have met many people who do not "instantly considers only his or her religion to be true". I have on a very basic level the same ideas as you, but I wouldn't go any deeper than that.
