The Di Vinci Code or “How Jesus got his groove back…”
That’s what the movie theatre marquee read. “How Jesus got his groove back!” I sat there and stared at it for a few minutes and actually contemplated throwing a brick through the window.
“How Jesus got his groove back.” All over the world Moslems are rioting over cartoon depictions of the prophet Mohammad meanwhile it is open season on Christians. In the last few months look at what we have had to put up with: Kyane West in a crown of thorns, Madonna on a cross and now the Di Vinci Code.
Hey did you catch one of the supporting from the film on the Today Show last week? It was the dude that played Gandalf the Great in the Lord of the Rings, the famous British actor dude… Ian Mc something or other. He was on with Matt Lauer and in a moment of supreme stupidness he said, “The Bible should be published with the word fiction stamped on it. I mean, a fella walking on water? Come now…”
Come now?
Do you know what the problem is? People are stupid. S-T-U-P-I-D. For all of our technology, all of our advancement, people are still empty, confused and they don’t even know why! Here is something to ponder. More people read the Divinchi code last year than the New Testament of the Bible! More people’s mind is open to fiction than to Biblical truth!
If Jesus were God, why wouldn’t he be able to walk on water? Just because you don’t believe doesn’t give you the right to mock and ridicule the founder of the religion! Let’s hear you say that about Islam and the Prophet Mohammad! Assholes can be so brave when they disrespect Jesus! That’s because his followers try to emulate their masters actions. I have grown tired of the double standard but will I attack the attackers?
Don’t get me wrong. I don’t think we have to fight for Jesus. I think that God is perfectly capable of taking care of himself; I just want to be there when the excrement hits the fan. I want to see the look on Ian Mc Stupid’s face when Jesus looks into his eyes. Can you imagine?
And that is the problem. Most people can’t imagine it because they don’t read their Bibles. If you call yourself a Christian, it is time to get with the program. Jesus didn’t have a wife and kids. Do you know how I know? The Bible doesn’t speak of it. Jesus was the greatest phenomena to ever cross the horizon of this world. He’s God’s son, he’s the sinner’s savior. He’s the centerpiece of civilization, he’s unprecedented, he’s unparallel, he’s the loftiest ideal in literature, he is the principle personality in philosophy, he is he fundamental doctrine in true theology, he is the only one qualified to be an all sufficient savior.
And here is a secret: If you know him your mind won’t be “open” to alternative stupidity. You may want to occasionally throw the brick, but ultimately patients will win out. The battle has already been won. Check out the book of Roman Chapter 1: 18 – the end of he chapter.
Kyane, Madonna, Di Vinci fans… Don’t be fooled, God cannot be punked!
I heard a great quote regarding the Da Vinci code... I don't know who said it though...
"Brown assumes that since the Gospel didn't mention Jesus had a wife, it is proof that he had one. Though by that logic he should also have an Aston Martin."
I rather like that!

"I think that God is perfectly capable of taking care of himself; I just want to be there when the excrement hits the fan."
This comment promotes the idea that God is anything other than Love, Joy, Peace. God operates in a realm of consciousness that is beyond what 99% of the world operates in. David Hawkins outlines a "map of consciousness" in his book "Power vs. Force" (google it to find the map and find the book reviewed at amazon). The scale on the map runs from zero to 1,000 and, God consciousness is rated at 700-1000. Everything below 200 is life taking and everything above 200 is life giving. If God operates at the highest level of consciousness (700-1000) then is it possible for God to condemn? Condemnation rates at 50 on the scale (a level of consciousness of "apathy"). God does not condemn. God does not judge. God is love and God loves us. The book The Da Vinci Code does not change this fact. We are all powerfully creative spiritual beings (thank you God) and thus, what we focus our attention on grows. Focus your attention on how The Da Vinci Code is negative and you create more negative. Focus your attention on your connection to God and being of service and behold, you get more of that. Life is full of distractions (TV being one of the biggest in my opinion). The goal is to place our attention on that which will enhance life, bring joy and peace. Anger towards anything or anyone is simply another opportunity to look inside yourself.
