by Heather Whipps http://www.livescience.com/history/080331-hs-nicea.html "...In a savvy move that would put today's shrewd politicians to shame, the compromise proffered by Constantine was vague, but blandly pleasing: Jesus and God were of the same "substance," he suggested, without delving too much into the nature of that relationship. A majority of the bishops agreed on the compromise and voted to pass the language into doctrine..." |

I do like how the author of the article does add the following: Nicene legends still circulating While the Council of Nicea had important consequences, its significance has been exaggerated into legend by a few conspiracy theorists, documentaries and books such as Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code," historians say. Contrary to popular belief, the council had nothing to do with selecting which verses and gospels would be included in the Bible, nor whether Christianity agreed or disagreed with the concept of reincarnation. Bishops did not burn books they deemed heretical there either, historians say. Truth is undoubtedly the sort of error that cannot be refuted because it was hardened into an unalterable form in the long baking process of history... Michel Foucault Hope begets many children illegitimately and prematurely. Allie M. Frazier Beware the terrible simplifiers... Jacob Burckhardt |

I wish the writer of the article would've expounded on this... >>><<<<>>>><<<<>>>><< "Study the people who took you out of history. Then you'll understand -your history."

True, just as the word "hippocrite" means "pretends to have virtue or value". How ironic and deceptive it is that the hippocratic oath (e.g. considered mantra for the medical profession) is the accepted construct for the AMA with the "Cadeusus" to boot -----> an original Egyptian symbol. Now that's propaganda in full effect. What I posted is just one source exposing what the Council did and how what they did continues to perpetually affect the way modern Western Civilizaiton thinks and acts. I'm sure there are many other sources! |

Hypocrite comes from the Greek word for actor, transliterated as hupocritēs. Hippocratic comes from the proper name Hippocrates (which can also be transliterated from the Greek as Hippokrátēs). So, while there are numerous doctors who may indeed by hypocrites, I do not see it as being ironic or deceptive. Truth is undoubtedly the sort of error that cannot be refuted because it was hardened into an unalterable form in the long baking process of history...

Roman Empire Weakening;
Constantine Devises Universal Religion Around Jesus for a Perpetual Flow of Wealth to Rome The story of The True Jesus is much greater than the weak version devised for the Roman Empire’s Universal Church by the Emperor Constantine, in order to generate a perpetual flow of wealth to Rome. The “Whore of Rome”, mentioned in the Bible, was a prediction that the Roman Empire would devise a “Universal” religion around the life of the man called Jesus for money. People have been mentally programmed for millennia to believe that the Bible is literally fact. However, as we have shown in the “Historic Connection”, the Old Testament was written to motivate a group of slaves in Babylon, Iraq to create a country of Jewish Hebrews, by following a composite One God, Yahweh. The One God, Yahweh, was built around information from 2 separate One Gods, the Lord and Jehovah. As with the Old Testament, the New Testament contains a combination of truths, misrepresentations and omissions. However, in the Roman Empire Universal Church’s New Testament, there were also deliberate mistranslations, censorship and excessive use of untruths. The motivation for writing the New Testament of the Bible was pure and simple Roman greed. The New Testament was written specifically to bring a perpetual flow of physical and spiritual wealth to Rome. In order to understand why Rome created today’s version of the Christian religion in 325 A.D., one has to understand what was happening to the Roman Empire at that time. In the second century A.D., Rome overextended the size of the Roman Empire. Unable to maintain the size of their conquests with only Italian soldiers, Rome relied more and more upon mercenaries. An army of mercenaries fights only for money. Those who fight only for money have no allegiance and will leave to fight for the highest bidder for their services. In the beginning of the third century A.D., problems were occurring throughout the Roman Empire. Others began making intrusions into the Roman Empire, raiding towns and cities. And so it was that in the third century A.D., the Roman Empire was beginning to disintegrate. By 260 A.D., the Roman Emperor, Valerian himself, was captured by Sassanians and a massive fortune of Rome’s gold was needed to buy his release. Thus, with the Roman legions falling back in retreat, Rome needed a way to continue the wealthy lifestyles of its Emperors and upper class citizens. The Roman Emperor Constantine saw the proliferation of “Christianity” taking place in Rome, Europe, Northern Africa and the Middle East, because of the large number of healing miracles and celestial visions attributed to the followers of a man called Jesus. Constantine foresaw that if Rome could form their own type of religion around the man Jesus, then wealth would perpetually pour into Rome from “Christians” around the world. And so it was that the Emperor Constantine forcibly took over the “Christian” movement in the early 4th century and called his newly devised religion, the Roman Universal Church. The word Catholic means Universal, so the real meaning of the words “Roman Catholic Church” is “Roman Universal Church”. The Roman Emperor Constantine excluded the name of Jesus from the name of his new church, because the Roman Universal Church was devised without the spiritual techniques and secret esoteric wisdom of Jesus. Chronological Summary of Rome to 325 A.D. * 280 B.C. * 265 B.C. * 264-241 B.C. * 218-202 B.C. * 215-205 B.C. * 197 B.C. * 172-168 B.C. * 50 B.C. * 70 A.D. * 101-117 A.D. * 224 A.D. * 260 A.D. * 311 A.D. * 314 A.D. * 324 A.D. * 325 A.D. Rome defeats Samnites to conquer Central Italy Rome conquers Southern Italy Rome wins 1st Punic War Rome violates Ebro Treaty beginning 2nd Punic War Rome’s 1st Macedonian War Rome wins 2nd Macedonian War Rome wins 3rd Macedonian War Rome conquers Gaul, or Southern France Rome destroys Jerusalem after Jewish revolt Rome conquers Middle East, overextending the Roman Empire Sassanians raid Roman territory Sassanians capture and imprison Roman Emperor Valerian Roman Emperor Constantine permits Christian worship in Rome Roman Emperor Constantine changes Jesus March birthday to December Roman Emperor Constantine devises the Roman Empire’s Church Roman Emperor Constantine states Roman Empire’s Church is the only church of Christianity, all other forms of Christianity are based upon heresy And so it was that in 324 A.D. the Roman Emperor Constantine devised his own form of Christianity. Then, Constantine declared other earlier and, purer forms of Christianity to be heresies. His heresy declaration, at the Council of Nicea in 325 A.D., authorized the Roman legions to slaughter every man, woman and child who followed any form of Christianity that differed from Constantine’s own “Roman Universal Church”. This left early “Christians”, in the Roman Empire of Europe, the Middle East and Northern Africa, with two choices. * Convert to Constantine’s weak version of Christianity, or * Die a heretic. And so it was that a group of early Christians, who were using the pure spiritual techniques of Jesus, decided to bury numerous manuscripts containing the words and wisdom of The True Jesus at Nag Hammadi, Egypt around 325 A.D. to 330 A.D. The buried manuscripts included The Gospel of Thomas, The Gospel of Mary and about 50 other ancient documents, containing the secret esoteric wisdom of the man called Jesus. http://www.thetruejesus.org/ "......Distinguishing TRUTH from falsehood" 'Change your words into truth And then change that truth into LOVE, And maybe our children's grandchildren , And their great-grandchildren will tell.' |

It is with great dissapointment that our people do not understand who the enemy is. Religion will never take out of these problems. Behind any great nation there is a great God. Rome understands that and they putting it into action.
Most of the things that my brother (nehisi) is saying are true but I wish he would learn not to lean too much on the Roman Gods like Jesus. Jesus is purely a Roman God and will never release you from the Roman captivity because Jesus is a Roman Spirit. It was only through Jesus that Romans were able to conquer the whole world. My advice is if we want to free our selves from white people, we must let go of their gods and Look back to the God of Creation. |

although, the majority of physicians claim the "do no harm" mantra -- their idea of practicing health is via cutting and dispensng pharmaceuticals.
The body has the ability to heal from within -- since GOD dwells within. The medical professional would be out of business were they to "tell the truth" by informing the public that it is what they ingest into their systems that plays a major role in dis-ease. Once our ancestors practiced a way of life that sustained them for long periods of time. Once meat was imposed upon the people of Ta-Meri ~by invaders~ that all changed, forever...
