chapter 01

Luke starts with a backwards warning. Which when one understands the motivation and methods of the writers, allows us some clarity. In fact, Luke reveals many things in his exaggerated backward telling of the events.

GNB vs. 1: Dear Theophilus:
Many people have done their best to write a report of the things that have taken place among us… vs. 3: And so, your Excellency, because I have carefully studied all these matters from their beginning, I thought it would be good to write an orderly account for you. 4. I do this so that you will know the full truth about everything which you have been taught. EQ.

Now, first thing to notice is that he suggests that all the other writings are flawed. Second, we are reminded that these works were written long after the events of which the stories are told. Third, and most important, he is, like all were, writing for ‘your Excellency’. He was making a story that would please the ruling class. He was whoring out his writing talents to add to the mind set that would please ‘his Excellency’.

“But don’t we all want to please our Excellency.”

“No. The underlying message of Jesus Christ is that the system is flawed. That those of the ruling class are slave drivers. That the lawyers and priests are their whores.”

Alas, let us embark.

If you have read the Old Testament, which is recommend if you are serious about writing. And necessary if you propose to tell others that you believe in God. For it is the holy books where this character is created. It is the model for rule with unquestioned authority.

The first thing Luke makes a big deal about is John. And this is almost an exact repeat of the story with Sarah. We were told she was too old, which was likely one of those backward stories for ‘she was not yet old enough to bare children’. Part of what makes this obvious is that women that are too old in real reality can no longer bare children.

Luke hints that John’s dad was an old priest. Perhaps he was impotent. A priest, by law, had to marry a cousin. And it was common to take a woman before she was ripe. A girl.

When the angel who took the name Gabriel for the story came to Zechariah to tell him his wife Elizabeth was pregnant, he was a little surprised. He was so dumbfounded that after the meeting with the angel of the Lord, he gave up speaking.

GNB vs. 17: He will go ahead of the Lord, strong and mighty like the prophet Elijah. He will bring fathers and children together again; he will turn disobedient people back to the way of thinking of the righteous; he will get the Lord’s people ready for him. EQ.

This is not a prophecy. This is a statement of fact. John would be raised by the Jewish priests, like so many were, to do a job. And his job was to hype his friend Jesus.

So after Elizabeth was state rapped, the angel of the Lord went to see Mary.

GNB vs. 26: In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy God sent the angel Gabriel to a town in Galilee named Nazareth. 27. He had a message for a girl promised in marriage to a man named Joseph … The girl’s name was Mary. 28. The angel came to her and said, “Peace be with you! The Lord is with you and has greatly blessed you!” EQ

And for anyone who doesn’t get the picture clearly stated here. The girl, the young virgin girl, was raped by the Lord. For the story they tell us Gabriel. In reality it was the Lord of the land at the time. And at that time it was Herod.

GNB vs. 29: Mary was deeply troubled by the angel’s message, and she wondered what his words meant. EQ.

And for those who wonder why she was deeply trouble, it is because the Lord forced his penis inside of her vagina.

“I think you made it clear.”

“It needs to be crystal clear. Luke has been kind enough to make it obvious. We must take the opportunity to understand the holy story of tyranny.”

GNB vs. 31: You will become pregnant and give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus. EQ.

And Joseph can like it.

Because this is how kings are made. This is how kings rule their kingdoms.

GNB vs. 34: Mary said to the angel, “I am a virgin. How, then can this be?”

Gideon vs. 35: “... The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee ...” EQ.

Holy Ghost is what we call a euphemism. Lord is a title of the ruling class.

“Oh. Now I see. So I just open up my legs to you because you are the Lord and have some holy spirit for me.”

“Yes, my child.”

“And if I don’t want that you rape me.”

“It doesn’t matter. The kid is going to be a king. Now open wide like a good girl.”

GNB vs. 37: For there is nothing that God cannot do.”

And for any beginners who haven’t learned to translate. God means Lord. And it is exactly as stated. Those with such titles are above and outside the laws that they hand down to the slave class. The ruling class can do as they please and that includes raping virgin girls.

Gideon vs. 36: And behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age. EQ.

And Margaret Atwood picked up on this bit:

Gideon vs. 38: “And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.” EQ.

The guy that raped me, my cousin and countless other women. Went away to spread his seed.

Mary went to visit Elizabeth. It has been written that they had many praises about the part they got to play in the grand theater. That would be when they were in the presence of the ruling class or their whores, the lawyers and priests. In their own home they would speak without euphemisms.

“That bastard Herod.”

“He has made our first sons brothers through rape.”

“I will teach Jesus to rebel against them.”

“I will teach John to rebel against them.”

In case anyone missed it, which your humble narrator also did, John the Baptist and Jesus Christ were half brothers.

And something few have suspected is that Mary and Elizabeth plotted against the royal men’s club and John and Jesus were among their army that fought the long war against the tyrant women and children hating and murdering ruling class.

And it came to pass that Mary and Elizabeth sang a song.

“With all our hearts, we shall curse the Lords.
With all our wrath, we will resist their swords.

All the world will know what the Lords have done.
When the truth is revealed, we will have won.

A generation of vipers lower than Beelzebub’s slugs.
Throw them down and feed them to the bugs.

They rob the land and rule with fear.
They feed their egos with children’s tears.

Our ancestors have bent to their laws.
We’ll rip out their eyes with our claws.

They never show mercy for they know not the word.
They know only plunder and rape and rule with the sword.”

The song went on but the cousins broke down laughing. They knew it would be a long battle to take the power back but they could see the day when the world of the tyrant’s rule would come to an end.

Zechariah listened to their song and because he still wasn’t speaking, said nothing. He smiled at the girls and let himself dream of a day when the madness of his ancestors was vanquished from all the land.


chapter 02

This one, this verse, is a favorite of preachers:

Gideon vs. 1: “And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.” EQ.

What the truth was: could be taxed. For in reality, the poor were already over taxed.

But Lords like to have hills of gold and silver.

Anyhow. Joseph, who didn’t have sex with Mary till after Jesus was born, had to go to Bethlehem. That’s where David was born. Like it mattered.

Well, the angels do some declarations, go up a hill and tell some shepherds to go pay reverence to the new king in a manger. Lest the event go unnoticed.

And this is suddenly an icon. Christ in a manger. As if it mattered. It didn’t. Mark doesn’t even mention the birth. Matthew has Jesus born in a house. Most bloody likely a relative. But Luke likes to be dramatic. He also completely ignores the three wise men. Otherwise know as the three kings. Otherwise know as the three stars in the sky.

“The three sisters.”

GNB vs. 23: as it is written in the law of the Lord: “Every first-born male is to be dedicated to the Lord.” 24. They also went to offer a sacrifice of a pair of doves or two young pigeons, as required by the law of the Lord. EQ.

The Laws of Lord Moses. Bloody crazy when one stops to think that parents take their kid to a synagogue, buy a couple birds and burn them because Moses said it was a law. How fucking stupid is that. And don’t think it is behind us. People still do crazy rituals with their kids to dedicate them to the holy tyrants of the big lie. The big bald face lie.

“Don’t get bogged down on it.”

“Ignorance is stupid.”

Okay, Joseph and Mary dedicated their bastard son, cut off his foreskin and called him Jesus.

Some guy was waiting for Jesus to be born so he was happy to have lived long enough to see the boy. Happy someone had come to save Israel.

“From what.”

“Judaism.”

Gideon vs. 32: A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of the people Israel.” EQ.

Or the man that would be used as an icon for another rape and pillage religion.

“Man, you really got it in with religion.”

“Fucking right I do.”

“What did religion ever do to you.”

“Let me count the ways. But not now. It isn’t about me as much as the women and children and the impoverished in the third world who are impoverished because of the ruling class mother murdering child rapists.”

“If you say so.”

“I do.”

Gideon vs. 35: “(... a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed. EQ.

This is a fairly good description of how it was upon awakening to the knowledge of the extent of the horror of the ruling class men’s club vile brutality over the last several thousand years. It is one thing to picture it, it is yet another to see it.

GNB vs. 33: The child’s father and mother were amazed at the things Simeon said about him. 34. Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother, “This child is chosen by God for the destruction and the salvation of many in Israel. He will be a sign from God which many people will speak against 35. And so reveal their secret thoughts. And sorrow, like a sharp sword, will break your own heart.” EQ.

Especially shocking for the family when Jesus rejected the God myth. But he could not believe. It was not in his nature. His instinct simply did not allow it. He had been chosen to stay awake. The animals would not let him follow the comfortable lie.

And there was an old woman who had also waited for Jesus.

And 12 years fly by and not only has Luke dropped the silly wise men. He also dropped living in Egypt.

Which is a mistake ‘cause it was written in the script. He must have spilt wine on it.

And when they all go home after the old ritual murder first born Egyptians party pilgrimage sacrifice festival and take gifts to the Synagogue sluts as per rules of Moses.

They forget to take Jesus when they go home. Which might seem unlikely but it ain’t. There are enough distractions.

And when they do realize Jesus isn’t among them, they go on back to Jerusalem to find Jesus hanging with the priests having a chat about the pretty Torah and the blood sacrifices and the incest and genocide rape and plunder.

And everyone is having a nice time.

And the priests think Jesus is a bright boy. They are pleased that he is interested in the laws of Moses. What they don’t know yet is that Jesus will very soon be disillusioned and turn on them.

Walking the war of words against the tyrannical over lords as long as it took to tear down all the walls of the temples of lies.

“Are you sure.”

“The gods have assured me.”


chapter 03

By the way, I will recommend the Good News Bible translation. For the New Testament. Easy to read. I like to cross-reference it with the Gideon which is similar to the King James version. The JPS is excellent for the Old Testament. They call it the Holy Scriptures.

Let’s talk about the Jewish problem for a bit since this story is both about tearing at the absurd laws of Moses and the faint beginning of protocol. A shaky bridge to common sense. The slow battle of getting rid of Kings and Religion. Like fossil fuels.

Many ask me why I invest so much energy in tearing down religion. The answer is never satisfying to those with religion and little understanding of their religion. Religion is an outright war against life. It proposes that ‘the after life’ is our goal. This is simply a bald face lie. And it makes our conduct irrational. It has lead to the concept of humans being above and separate from the rest of life. It has lead to the ownership of the most of the planet by the very few. Most of which should simply not be owned at all.

“Are you a communist, or what.”

“No. I am that I am. I am simply realistic. I have communicated with a few of the other animals and, from our species, women and children. There is no question that we must abandon our infantile belief systems. They are murderous and suicidal.”

We are still in a system of might is right. Kill whom you have to so that you win control of the mineral wealth of the world. Lie to people with religion and send them to the mines or off to war.

Boring dead end games. We could have a much better system with less stress, less work, no hunger and no war. We need to make it our goal.

Okay, let’s pick up by John TB. Luke gives us a few more details so we think he must know. Who was who of the Romans.

“Get ready for my brother, he’s on his way and Priests and Sadducees are snakes.”

“Hang on. John forgot to mention who the snakes were with Luke.”

“True. What he says is very communistic and it implies the leveling off of the system.”

GNB vs. 5: Every valley must be filled up,
Every hill and mountain leveled off.
The winding roads must be made straight,
And the rough paths made smooth. EQ.

John TB is not suggesting that every thing get bulldozed flat so Jacob can make a world wide shopping mall.

John tells them having Ab as an ancestor won’t help them any. This is not directed to Gentiles.

Well, now something not yet often talked about must be questioned and thought about. John TB was the son of Herod. Just like Jesus was the son of Herod. There will be those who say this isn’t true. The answer to that is: what the hell is true in any of the Bible stories. Pick any Bible.

Herod was unbelievably stupid and arrogant. Or at least not much in control of his hormones. But we get ahead of the story. John still has his head and wandering around in the desert, eating insects.

John is at the river, cleaning people of their sins. A fairly blasphemous practice for the times. Instead of calling the priests and lawyer snakes, or vipers, he tells everyone. Then he tells some people what to do to be nicer.

Share what you have. And don’t be a jackass. Meaning, don’t be a criminal. Which was and still is often the case. Taking what you can from whomever you can.

GNB vs. 12. Some tax collectors came to be baptized, and they asked him, “Teacher, what are we to do?”
13. “Don’t collect more than is legal,” he told them.
14. Some soldiers also asked him, “What about us? What are we to do?”
He said to them, “Don’t take money from anyone by force or accuse anyone falsely. Be content with your pay.” EQ.

Now, for many this seems awful simple. Tax collector made good money taking more than was owed. And soldiers were often given license to do as they pleased. It was their pay. Plunder and rape. And this is not history. It is still how it is for many soldiers.

And Jesus came down to get Baptized.

Then Luke finds it necessary, maybe it was require of him, to include the line back to God. Amminadab. Obed. Enosh. Zerubbabel. Arni. Adam. God. So God had two sons. Adam, the bumbling idiot and Jesus the raging rebel.

The names are in the other translations. He we skip them on account there simply were far too many bastard sons for a list of men having sons to make any sense at all. Distraction.

GNB vs. 23: … He was the son, so people thought, of Joseph, who was the son of Heli… EQ.

Well, the people thought wrong.
