Economics of the Heart: Historical Jesus<\/a> & Project 2025\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"

“Christ in house of parents” Tate Britain, London John Everett Millais c 1850<\/p><\/div>\n

Over many centuries scholars across the planet have studied and analyzed countless scrolls, tablets, and artifacts related to the historical Jesus and concluded that yes, Jesus was a real human guy who actually did lots of the things the gospels talked about. He lived at the right time in the right place, enough to convince centuries of scholars that he was a real human being known to a lot of people and actually was crucified by Pilate and died. Many of the narratives of the gospels correlate with verified facts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The same cannot be said of his divinity, his virgin conception, hosts of flying angels in Bethlehem, his resurrection, or his ascension to heaven. Nevertheless over the next 2000 years the religions created in his name and centered around all of those deliberate superstitions eventually spread across the entire world, acquired vast wealth, power, and influence, and\u00a0 maintained a vast following.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The reality of this moment in American history was captured by the elusive author of the oft-quoted warning that<\/span> “when Fascism comes to America, it will be “wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.”<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0In a<\/span> 2024 article<\/a> in the Daily Montanan<\/a>, retired lawyer and former Montana Supreme Court Judge James C. Nelson wrote a<\/span> prescient article with the same title<\/a>, in which he described his experience at the Feb ’26<\/span> CPAC<\/a> meeting in DC where “right-wing conspiracy theorist”<\/span> Jack Posobiec<\/a> openly greeted attendees with: \u201cI just wanted to say, welcome to the end of democracy. We are here to overthrow it completely. We didn\u2019t get all the way there on January 6, but we will endeavor to get rid of it…because all glory, all glory is not to government, all glory is to God.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

So let’s be clear: these politically motivated so-called “Christians” have nothing to do with the life or teachings of the historical Jesus or devotion to any God. They are\u00a0the culmination of a decades-long conspiracy to overthrow our<\/em> 250-yr-old Constitutional government and replace it with an autocratic-authoritarian state. All<\/em> power will be concentrated in the hands of a small, self-selected number of multi-billionaire white men who will remain completely above the laws they will be using <\/span>as weapons against all who resist.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As we have discussed before, the Project 2025 objective is complete control of this country by dominating the<\/span>\u00a0Seven Mountains<\/a> of Education<\/span><\/a>, Government<\/a>, Religion<\/a>, Family,<\/a> Business<\/a>, Media<\/a>, and Entertainment<\/a>. Their well-funded and well-organized game plan has nothing<\/em> to do with religion and everything<\/em> to do with the wanton destruction of Constitutional democracy. Watching these videos makes coherent sense of the deliberate 24\/7 chaos of the last ten<\/em> years of MAGA politics and the last forty<\/em> years of targeted media propaganda from Republican politicians, news networks, and media celebrities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
