Doctrines of Demons, the Modern Pagan and Pantheist Antithesis; ‘God’ of Void
PatriotandLiberty ^ | 2023 | Linda Kimball

In our own time, Oneism–the pagan and occult pantheist antithesis of the Word of God–remains substantially unchanged from what they was in Paul’s time:

“Paul was reasoning in the synagogue with the Jews and the God-fearing Gentiles, and in the market place every day with those who happened to be present. And also some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers were conversing with him. Some were saying, “What would this idle babbler wish to say?” Others, “He seems to be a proclaimer of strange deities,” – because he was preaching Jesus and the resurrection. And they took him and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, “May we know what this new teaching is which you are proclaiming? “(Acts 17:18-19)

Stoics and Epicureans were the two most prominent schools of nature philosophy, nature science and nature religion of that time. Theirs was a humanist, animist, monist, evolutionary, and occult scientific (knowledge of the unseen) worldview predicated upon a one-dimensional universe (Oneism/monism) of animated (evolving) physical matter or divine psychic energy (spiritualized matter). They were the physicists of their age.

“There is no God and no soul. Hence, there are no needs for the props of traditional religion. With dogma and creed excluded, then immutable (unchangeable) truth is also dead and buried. There is no room for fixed, natural law or permanent moral absolutes…We, of course, say that we do not believe in God (and) eternal morality. That is moral that serves the destruction of the old society. Everything is moral which is necessary for the annihilation of the old exploiting social order and for uniting the proletariat.” (John Dewey, The Unseen Hand, A. Ralph Epperson, p. 298, 378-379) (1)

It always amuses me that people making those kind of pronouncements expect us to take them seriously.

After a diatribe like that, what seems to escape their attention is that it also applies to their own pronouncements, therefore if what they say it true, they are spouting meaningless nonsense as well.

You’re welcome spirited irish!!

I was also thinking of that ridiculous movie with Shirley McClain “Out on a Limb,” in that cringey squeaky voice “I am god! I am god!” Hollyweird was indoctrinating us back then.
