I was only taking the p

My recent post – Kanehbosem – didn't go down well with some it seems, particularly the director of the film about Cannabis in the holy anointing oil (cf. the trailer here), and the webmaster of the http://freeanointing.org webpage from which I cited much of the material. Indeed, as you can read in the comments of my post, the sourpuss asked me to remove the pictures of the bearded and interesting headwear Reverend Baldasaro and the Reverend Tucker. Pity.

He also felt my post was narrow-minded and uneducated. But as I pointed out in my response to his comment, I wasn't trying to be either.

I was just taking the piss.

And if the film producer was referring to my comments about the statements on the webpage to the effect that both Catholic and Protestant churches are the antichrist, to be noted is that I agreed with their reasoning:

"How true. Some of these stupid antichrist churches have bothered about defining oneself as Christian by faith in atoning work of Christ, works of justice and mercy, justification by faith etc. when all along they should have been skinny dipping in enough Cannabis to keep Snoop Dogg happy for a year" (italics mine)

In answer to their question: 'If Jesus was called "Christ" by receiving the Holy Anointing Oil, how are we to be called Christians?', once again I agreed:

"Indeedy. Unless you've been smeared from head to foot in half a bag of Marijuana, don't you have the cheek to go calling yourself a Christian"

Righty ho, I hope I've cleared that issue up.

I think these guys should hook up with the Heaven's Rehearsal folks I just blogged about and see what happens. What a wacked out trailer.

Er ... when he said he's given permission for people to link to his web page, exactly what was he on? You need permission to link to a web page now?!!

Hilarious!

I thought smoking pot was supposed to make people chill out... I wonder if these Church of the Universe people are missing out on the good stuff.

Sounds like they're nearly as cantankerous as Jim West!

Chris, you really shouldn't post anonymously on your own blog...

What exactly does "taking the piss" mean? I guess I haven't encountered that one here in Wisconsin.

RT, I would understand it as making fun of someone without intending to cause serious offence.

That's a very British expression Chris. It throws us North Americans off at first. I have lots of Brit friends so the shock has long since worn off, but I'm not sure I could get away with it. No one would have a clue what I was talking about.

Hello Brother Chris,

I just posted the following on your other site just 10 minutes ago. It is amazing I can find you misrepresenting me again so quick.

You seem to fail to mention here you were using copy righted photos, and I never asked you not to link to my site www.freeanointing.org. In fact you still are, LOL.

Anyway this is what I just wrote to you on your other site, https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20371730&postID=2667647122608262091, where you state that I call all Christian Churches the anti-Christ, And Brother Jim continues to just heckle heckle:

Hello Chris,

I will be Happy to discuss this further and answer your questions here. To answer your question, no I am not calling any Christian Church the Anti-Christ, I am simply discussing an ancient oil which was discussed in the Bible and is prophesied to be returned in Revelation 7. All Christian Churches are saved by faith in Jesus Christ, period! But I am making a statement on my front page which hopefully will bring the reader unto my site to experience the facts.

Now let me discuss this Anti-Christ issue further with you. What does “Anti-Christ” mean? “Anti” in Greek means “Opposed to” or “Instead of”. Christ in Greek or Messiah in Hebrew meant one who is anointed with the Holy anointing oil which is mentioned in Exodus 30/23. The Anti-Christ would then mean “Opposed to the anointed” or “Instead of the anointed”. The Chrism anointing which is practiced by all Orthodox Churches was part of the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven and part of the Fire Baptism as given by Jesus Christ, but was held in secret in the priesthood and not revealed in the Bible. If you read all that I have written in the web site you will find that according to many early Christian writers it was by this anointing that we were called Christians. Much of what I am quoting here were Christians who existed a hundred or more years before the Roman Catholic Church.

Please also note a page on my site, http://www.freeanointing.org/freechristian.htm that the original vessels used by James the Just at the first Church in Jerusalem have been found.

I did not spend 30 years of study on this and my life savings to produce this film, to just unload a bunch of lies. I have had other religious discussions on this. Check out the Catholic Warrior web site under drugs and there is a complete debate on this with me and the Catholic Warrior, http://catholicwarrior.blogspot.com/search/label/Drugs . This man disagreed with me as well and I was happy to discuss it all with him and discuss his issues. Frankly this discussion is a good read, and quite respectful.

Regarding this marijuana issue I know this whole idea is upsetting to some. Personally I don't understand why everyone has such a hard time believing that a true herb of God would be a sacrament. There are links to several sites on my front page discussing the historical uses of cannabis since the beginnings of recorded history. In fact most of the early Bibles through the centuries were written on cannabis paper.

So check out what I am saying on this site and lets discuss it rationally.

To Brother Jim, Hey I love you too brother. Heckle Heckle

Cheers all
Terry Winger

I guess you really dislike me Brother Chris. And I have been trying to be so nice to you. LOL.

Cheers
Terry
