I, Gary DeVaney, am a retired US reserve Army officer. I love and will always defend my United States of America. I am defending it now by saying: I dislike and do not support the fascist, theocratic United States Government. I do NOT agree with: "my god, my country, my government, right or wrong".  

Mix Religion, Government and Corporate-Capitalism and you have theocratic-fascism.

The current US theocratic-fascism Government doctrine: War is good for our economy. Invest your son!

Hasn’t mankind readily offered their children for their Government’s wars?

Military soldiers are slaves who are trained to kill and die. Some serve in support and maintenance of killing and dying. Politicians determine when and where soldiers kill and die. Soldiers are often to do the unthinkable. Politicians, without conscience, often order soldiers to do the unthinkable.

Most who apply morality to war are not directly involved. The most immoral wage the most effective wars. Their perceived morality is limited to their self-interest. They tend to demonize their enemy while being less moral than their enemy.  

The blind believer mind-set: God is God and has the right to do anything He wants with us because He made us.

Can you tell God apart from who does not exist?

Is our US court system connected to the "STATE"?

Ok, concerning the Bible, where does Satan come in? Has any Satan killed any thing or anybody yet? No! Does Satan ever kill anybody? No! Try to prove it Biblically. Who does all the killing? The Biblical God does all the killing! God took the rap in Job 2:3 concerning the murdering of Job's children and servants. God had documented "Death Angels" to do His murdering. It is NOT clear that Satan was one of God's "Death Angels" as Satan is described to be a winged Cherubim. Is Satan depicted to be a "Serpent" or a figure with "wings"? How would any court throughout known history, have judged any tyrant, by trial, who performed the intentional crimes of destruction that God did?

If a "Space-Alien" attempted these crimes, wouldn’t Earth declare war against it? Which side would you fight on? Would you dutifully and cheerfully declare the alien to be Jesus; then, obey and offer sacrifice of your children for Jesus’ war?

Are you your government or religion when your government or religion kills you in the name of its God?

Have tyrannical leaders created religions and wars to conform the masses, through fear, to their wills?

Are wars but political agendas?

Wasn’t God depicted to repent and to be sad in His heart? Doesn’t this show human-like limitations, frailty and vulnerability in God? Most clergy insist that God is in control.

Doesn’t dogma state that what God creates is good and that God is good? But, doesn’t it also state that the world He created is bad and that we are conceived in sin?

Are human beings just in and of the world, or are they the creators of myth with their God just a flag of identity that flies over them?

Was the flood an opportunity for God to dispose of Satan? Did God dispose of Satan? Why not? Who proved to be the destroyer (adversary) of man? This Biblical God was!

Is God’s Bible a model of justification for the crusades, the inquisition, the holocaust, the slaughtering of North and South American Indians and the enslaving of Africans?

Why did God murder everybody with the flood? If it was because they didn’t obey, why did He murder all the babies? No babies were aboard on the arc. Only the 8 adults. Why did God kill all the animals on Earth minus a few? Can you define God’s justice? Has God changed? Clergy mostly say no. Is this your God?

What are your answers?

Believer: "Faith".

God’s solution to His marriage to human beings and disappointing children is to wipe them all out. Talk about divorce - God style! King Henry the 8th obviously took notice and beheaded his wives. Actually, God wiped out tons of people to fulfill agendas they had little to do with.

Was God’s apparent solution to a problem: Eliminate the people to eliminate the problem?

Why didn’t God make everybody good? Was His power limited? Was His agenda bad? Did God's agenda prove to be flawed? If it was perfect, why was God unhappy with it? God said He was angry. God said He was jealous. Anger and jealousy are not characteristics of perfection. Are they?

When believers say: "I believe", what does it mean? Does it mean that they accept that things happened the way they were presented?

Most believers "know" little about the Bible.

Or, could they, through fear, also be zealously supporting God’s actions, deeds and attitudes concerning, if intentional, the heinous crimes against all living things depicted in scripture?

Being critical, how could anyone, who knows good from bad, right from wrong, possibly support The God (Authority) of The Old Testament? How can you support any church or Synagogue who promotes this heinous God?

This material, collectively, is against lies and projected falsehoods. Could you muster the courage to get your Bible out and verify some of the Bible passages selected in this work? Would you check yourself, occasionally, to see if you would have preferred ignorance over the facts discovered? Should we just be dumb animals? Haven’t lies always created havoc? Whether or not these facts bring you peace of mind is entirely up to you.

Believer: First, spiritual leaders are to oppose false teachers like you by overpowering you by the truth taught so clearly, precisely and powerfully that those who spread error hide in humiliation when their falsehood is exposed. 

I publicly welcome any religious leader or layman to attempt humiliation  concerning any topic on this website.

Examine the use of the word spiritual closely and you’ll probably discover fantasy. Bible facts: Are you interested in searching out the facts, or do you just assume to be a fear-based, feeling-oriented authority over the topic?

Do you value knowing the facts, or, would you prefer to ridicule or punish researchers who expose the facts. Just think, you can absorb thousands of hours of funneled-down research in just a couple of hours. Don’t you value the Bible and want to know what it says? The worst thing that could happen is you would know most of the Biblical trivia questions. Can your God hold up to this scrutiny? Can you?

Believer: I am afraid that God will punish me for not being what He wants.

Have people, in childhood, bought into and built up images of God that makes them do dumb things and / or troubles them as adults? Does your ego and how you feel about yourself directly relate to how you feel about other people and how you get along with them?

By taking self-responsibility, can we better build our self-image?

Gene theory: What we are programmed to know now has been learned in past life cycles and sparks of knowledge are being re-triggered by experiences during our current life cycle.

Genes remember. Check out the animals. Ego, however, cannot handle the perspective that our living, aware, and ever evolving genes control anything. Knowledge is the nemesis of fear.

To sacrifice: To bestow pain by killing, then to burn, destroy and sometimes consume the body of a virginal, flawless, innocent human or animal; having it take the place of the very guilty ones who perform the monstrous deed. Was not God’s sacrifice of Jesus Christ, supposedly, a sacrifice of a virgin?

Isn’t the highlighted part of this story similar to Judges 19:22-26?

Wisdom: Wisdom cannot be taught. Learn what you will; accept what you can use and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away. GWD

Would you ever think to create a colony of inferior life forms in your basement, then to sacrifice your only child for these life forms?

Didn’t the writers of the New Testament depict and promote this kind of insane scenario? Can you define diabolical mind? Let’s see now. God is good? His creations are bad? Hmmm - and, Who is to be feared? God? His creation, an unknown character who hasn’t yet been identified called Satan? Doesn't Satan lie, kill and deceive? Nooo! God does it all!

Yet again, how can the Biblical God, something supposedly perfect, create something imperfect? If God created something imperfect, He has to face the fact that He, Himself, if He exists, is imperfect. Anyone who regrets and repents has to be imperfect. Instead of correcting His imperfections, God destroys them. God wipes them out. Biblical history continues to prove that God did not do much better in His later attempts. Maybe this God feeds on suffering. Wouldn’t that be a shock?

Aren’t livestock in slaughter yards herded into the chutes while having some kind of blind trust, faith and belief? An old, long-whiskered Billy Goat is bribed by treats to go through the chutes. The stupid, younger goats "have faith" in him, follow him and get slaughtered. The old "wise goat" returns to lead other flocks to their destruction.

Does clergy rip off the souls and wills of mankind by coercing them to humbly conform, to follow dogma; to righteously throw away the uniqueness of their lives, if they have any?

Many people are brought up with threats and fear that an angry God lies in wait to punish them, now and for all eternity. Consider war. Don’t most people react to war by turning into monsters themselves and siding with the authoritative (God-like) monsters in charge?

Many children have recorded enough destructive tapes to face a life of dread until dead. Unfortunately, righteously indignant zealots re-trigger those tapes often throughout the puppet-human’s life journey. Fear tapes, once instilled in a child will never go away.

What can be done? The rare person, who becomes a wise, self-responsible adult, will tape over those tapes or re-program their hard-drive in attempt to erase their old paralyzing and cancerous influences. Separating fact from myth has to help. Human ego tends to deny that its programmed mind-set, prejudicial falsehoods are but programmed lies.

A manipulation / exploitation agenda: To demand the practice of believing in a false authority, like a god or religion, so that an assumed authority, one who exploits others, can successfully step in. These are the techniques of predators and parasites.

A sheep is an animal whose purpose is to be fleeced often and ultimately to be discarded or consumed. Either way, it is as if it’s identity never existed. GWD

Sheep become sheep, not human beings, as created by their unique DNA. Sheep genes predestine their predictable value and behavior as do people genes. The perspectives selected in this work tend not to major in minors.

Agenda: This work proves, by evidence, that the Bible is full of errors, conflicts and deception. In present day, if followed, it is an evil model for any civilization. You may choose to debate that it is not. For some, faith is one’s bottom-line answer to everything. Apply faith, and nothing else, to a bursting appendix to see the extent of its powers.

There are differences between debates and arguments. One difference is: A debate focuses on the topic. An argument focuses on control.

If God’s documented attitudes and deeds were identical to the character and conduct of someone who lives near you and your family, how would you feel towards him? Upon seeing his deeds, would you report him to the authorities? If not, would it be out of fear?

This investigation has exposed sufficient evidence to have become a prosecution. The cards are all played face up. It doesn’t hold back nor cover up. It openly presents its evidence. Check yourself. See if you tend to debate the facts or argue for control over the topic. Any debate won’t change the words that are written in the millions of Bibles.

GOD

The Study, The Investigation, The Prosecution

Interim Perspectives

You can’t create something out of nothing; yet, ideas do evolve into inventions.

I.B.M. exists. AT&T also exists as do countless corporations. Some vast corporations amount to “the civilization” of small countries. They came out of nothing but an idea that had not existed long before they were created. A “thought” (idea) can give birth to a creation, yet, if the thought is not acted upon, then supported, the creation can never exist.

Positive thinkers are dime a dozen; it’s the positive doers who make a difference. Ironically, most thinkers are not doers. Moreover, as long as something initiated, like a God, is financed, promoted and supported, it exists. If not financed, promoted and supported, it does not. Numerous Gods, and their believers, have come and gone throughout recorded history.

A corporation is a fictitious entity with an agenda and bylaws. All inventions start as a lie. A lie is a seed of creation, bringing something into reality. Without a lie, nothing is invented. The first time someone claimed that we can fly in airplanes, it was not real in time or in reality. The lie gave seed to invention.

The concept of corporations has become big business. However, numerous corporations have failed and disappeared as if they never existed. The concept of God was the first successful corporation. Many gods have come and gone - along with their believers. That is why God is promoted throughout the framework of big business. There is one word that can replace God every time. That word is authority. Test it. Corporations promote God so they can energize authority for their people to obey.

Because small businesses want to become big businesses, they also try to adopt the “Winning God Concept”. They, too, typically put the push on obedience.

Different “civilizations” amount to different “corporations” with their own bylaws (rules). “Gods” histories are often meta-physical, but as long as they are supported, they continue to exist. If the concept of civilization is not supported, we may go back to being monkeys.

Thus, one’s religion (the worship of one’s personal God) is one’s effort to worship and promote his or her own personal civilization; along with anything else he or she can invent and sell it to be. God pushers really try to convert (recruit) others to support their feelings and agendas.

Webster's Dictionary:

Civilization: A social organization of a higher order, marked by advances in the arts, sciences, etc.

Civilize: To bring out of a condition of savagery or barbarism; to instruct in the ways of an advanced society.

Civility: Good breeding, politeness, consideration, courtesy.

A “God” is an idea; a barbaric animal’s thinking approach to a civilizing concept. If one worships a God, one does tend to support his family, race, tribe, army, corporation or the government (civilization) it bonds with. Most seek a safe, civilizing concept, but, due to fear and insecurity, many promote the worship of a God. The danger to this concept is the “assumed authority” who competes to make a “civilization” function on his terms.

He “politically” serves himself by exercising his power and profit over others. He often sacrifices his “civilized” peasants by ordering them to kill and die, as a duty, in the service of his, often corrupt, agendas. “Corporations” are mini-civilizations in their own rite. They also promote the worship of God; so, while being served, the “corporation” also becomes “worshipped” (promoted) and it further benefits as a result.

A Human Being is an animal. Genetic studies have proven that Humans are genetically only about 2% different than Chimpanzees. Man’s religions were inventions, corporations, and fictitious entities that served as primal seeds in the impregnating of civilizations. Civilizations throughout the Earth are diverse. Because humankind’s animal genes are destructive and deadly, religions had totally atrocious and ugly histories. Throughout written history, what religion has been successful in producing a civilized society?

Christianity? No! Certainly not! More people have died in the name of the Christian God than for any other cause. Now, after studying and knowing the painful, destructive path religions took, what can we do to better the track record starting today? First, let’s mature. Can we come out of these dark ages, stop being fatalists, and redefine civilization’s laws and goals? Can we eliminate these destructive religions and their blackmailing God(s) from our programming? An agreement to establish and promote civil and criminal laws that unbiasly serves and protects everyone could be a good start.

A person who is describing his or her “personal God”, is generally providing a view of how “civilization” could better serve their “personal ego’s agenda” on it’s terms. Their ego is synonymous with their God. If their God is the Biblical God, their ego is dangerous.

A believer is one who does not think for oneself. A believer’s agenda is to follow, talk and obey the way they are programmed to follow, talk and obey.

A believer loyally and stubbornly competes against other agendas while resisting change.

A believer insists that any criticism of his or her beliefs be eliminated. They insist that any investigation be turned over to “the proper authorities” even if it is “the proper authority” who is being investigated.

Religious believers don’t get older and wiser. They just get older.

Part of being human is dealing with things unexpected, things unreasonable; learning things that go against blind pre-conceptions and risking to know the difference.

God: The Study, The Investigation, The Prosecution is really an ongoing work which will never be finished. As long as the Bible exists, criticism by thinking people will continue. On many levels, the works prove beyond the wildest doubt, that the evil commands and the modeling guidance of the God of the Old Testament were responsible for why man treats man as cruelly and poorly as he does.

Throughout the Bible, God prefers and chooses some over others. Constantly, those He chooses continue to sacrifice animals and murder much of mankind.

God starts off “face to face” with man. Then, He doesn’t operate directly with His chosen but through Angels. Then he runs things through prophets who advise the rulers and Kings. God becomes more absentee except “in spirit” (fantasy) as time goes on.

Each time when the Biblical God ordered Moses and Joshua to murder men, women and their babies for their land, He created a new holocaust. Each time God turned on Israel and had them slaughtered, He created a Jewish holocaust. Isn’t God still promising the entire world a final holocaust where all but his elect and / or chosen will suffer eternal damnation and punishment? Isn’t this God still acting insanely? How can sane people support Him? The only people who could possibly support this myth are the people who hate people.

Only about 50 years ago, over 6 million of God’s chosen Jews experienced “holocaust”. Would you care to define and sell rational people on their faith? By doing so, would you sit firm, without conscience or action, and watch those you have convinced experience the same fate? I would fight any alien force to prevent that type of event ever happening again and if it were against, God Himself, I’d hope He didn’t like it. What? I sound angry? What is right and wrong? You say: Obedience to God is right and the destruction of everything else is right, if He wills it. You say that you will destroy it all for God if He calls you to do so?

Karen Armstrong: From Auschwitz a group put God on trial for the Holocaust. They decided God should die. They sentenced Him to death. When the trial was over a Rabbi said: The trial has ended. God is guilty and deserves death. It’s time for the evening prayer. (“Genesis”, Paul Moyers)

Let’s examine how an ego has God-like traits similar to those characteristics defining the God of The Old Testament.

Observe these four perspectives:

Your relationship’s behavior does not require your approval.

Your relationship demands that you live by his / her values in your life.

Your relationship has decided not to account to you.

Your relationship wants another. You’re out, they’re in.

Your ego will react differently by shuffling different names where “relationship” is. The assumptions, contracts, agreements and the law may make your ego righteously jealous and possessive. Notice how these feelings promote different motivations. Are they not similar to the tantrums, motivations and acts displayed by the God of The Old Testament? Hypothesis: God and ego are synonymous.

What’s the point? We defend God’s cruelty because basically, we share the same genetic sensitivities, attitudes and motivations. Isn’t it the evil we are capable of that we fear and condemn in others?

Spiritual: A concept that is given birth by hidden or unknown feelings. Feelings compete against other feelings to manifest themselves into reality. Evil spirits are simply feelings that are in opposition to the dogmatic feelings and agendas that assume to be in charge. Competing feelings determine wills, actions and agendas. When a feeling acts to fulfill itself at the expense of others, it is often determined to be evil. Egos tend to praise the good feelings that serve them and to punish the bad spirits or agendas that oppose them.

Often what an ego sees as sin in another, it justifies as virtue in itself. Because the mighty ego (an assumed “God-fog” authority) cannot be wrong, it created that God, like itself, is good and the Devil (any adversary to it) is bad. Could this be the why and how Gods and Devils are born?

Genetically, we are issued one ego each. That is why the “God-fog” is so natural for a believer to muddle in. If a loving God created everything, why would He create an evil, malignant, contagious Devil to wreak havoc, pain and horror on an otherwise ideal world? The Jewish Torah projects no existence of any Devil. God does it all. Christian influence mainly claims the existence of Devils. Some more modern Jews have bought into Satan.

Perspective: Imagine, you were a cute little mouse with pretty pink ears and your father who created you, dropped you into a hungry snake cage. You face the bite that holds and chews while you feel your breath being slowly squeezed out of you, your ribs breaking. Then, you come to just in time to feel strong stomach acid dissolving your body. The Old Testament God created nature. In nature, this is a constant reality, not just a nightmare.

Did you ever figure out that governments, businesses, religions and other organizations absorb, in the name of God, the identities of persons much like the snake absorbs the mouse with the pretty pink ears? They typically demand: Believe in my way, serve me on my terms or be fired and financially die.

As long as a tyrant’s believers feared, they obeyed. Authoritarians led their believers to believe that without their God, protection, medicine or drug, they would die and suffer eternal-damnation. The agenda tends to tighten its hold on those who prove to serve it.

Aphorism: The more I learn, I realize, the less I know. At the rate I’m learnin’, I won’t know nothin’ in no time.
