How They Trick us in Stonehenge

“Imagine England without Stonehenge, imagine England without its great castles and abbeys, and imagine England without its great historic monuments,” said Dr Simon Thurley, Chief Executive of English Heritage. “It is largely thanks to the 1913 Ancient Monuments Act that these stone, brick and iron eye-witnesses to our past survive today to tell their story.” English Heritage traces its origins back to the 1913 Ancient Monuments Act and today is the government’s principal adviser on heritage in England and cares for the country’s National Heritage Collection.
    
But wait! What if these rich history was in fact concealed in secrecy? 
    The Collection of photos I have gathered here will definitely make you re-think your History 101 or at least your limited knowledge about Stonehenge. This is one of the darkest secret of history archeologist don't want you to know. The Centerpiece of British rich history and visited by Million of tourist every year was actually less than 50 years old. 
      The Stonehenge official guidebooks had been full of fascinating facts, figures, and  wild theories about the ancient worlds mysterious monument but what they aren't telling you is the fact that from 1901 (see picture above) it has undergone an elusive systematic restoration.



    
      Aren't you hurt that we've been systematically dupe by an opportunistic group of liars? We been robbed of more than 4,000 years of history. Generation after generation we are told about fake symbols.
     A million visitors a year are awe-struck as they look back in time into another age and marvel at the primitive technology and muscle-power which must have been employed transporting the huge monoliths and raising them on Salisbury Plain. They gasp as they are told about this strangely spiritual site.... mankind's first computer, its standing stones and precise lintels, lining up magically and mysteriously with the heavens above and the solstice suns. 

  
What if Stonehenge doesn't exist at all but just another fabricated lie? What if a much earlier pre-planned hoax was at play already. Let me ask you one final question: "What if the past they told you doesn't really happened at all?"


   Sources on this can easily be trace via the internet and no secret at all (especially to those who have already made themselves aware) but how was it possible that a massive cheating easily escaped  a large part of the human populace? Once again, we will return to Critical analysis of things. That had been made possible because the majority of people had been persuaded or brainwash to worship idols. When a person worship an animated object they become what they focus into.
   I would like you to re-read Romans 1, please take the time to digest the secret why people are easily brainwashed. This chapter will define where all ungodly things originate and how people became what they are now. 
   I know you have read this many times before but please; this time open your mind....don't cheat this blogger by simply browsing on the verses. Give the Holy Spirit a time to reveal it to you...especially from verses 20 onwards....

My Artistry's New Twist and WW3 Twister


Becoming a face painter wasn't part of my career path as an artist. It just so happened that the face painter my sister contacted for her event couldn't come....she asked "Fher, can you do face painting?" My Ate Fe owns a studio by the way and she had a Birthday to cover that day where she promise to provide the Clowns and face painter....
    And the rest was history...I mean, I actually don't have the time to practice the medium nor any idea at all what to do...
    Right there and then I experimented how to actually work on human skin. It's a different surface plus your subjects usually can't hold very still for a very long time...especially kids. I just let my instinct work that day and perhaps the costumer was satisfied since one of the guest and the owner of the venue asked for my number. 
   At that very first gig, I've felt a different joy so I decided to take it seriously or at least give some sort of importance. I begun to browse and actually do some investigative research. 
   I've just realized once again that most of what was written on my Bio-Data came from coincidences or what Carl Jung called as the 'magical effect'...or what I accepts to be 'divine intervention'. 



Speaking of divine intervention...I've just updated, well actually re-activated my The Art of Realizationism blog....and it might interest you how my artistry is taking it's more refined destination. (Check it out HERE) 

And speaking of another twist, I gotta an information last year that WW3 will start in the spring of 2013. I think I had it written somewhere here....anyway, here's what I can remember from that reliable source: With an attack on Iran by NATO, The Russians and China was said to stand against this attack. 
Everything will be just minor war after that...at least until 2016...but when USA moves it nuclear missiles to Georgia, it will escalate into something very terrible. Possibly, USA will experience an unexpected Nuke attack from China and Russia. 
Now that might result in 3 Billion death and lots of radiation everywhere.


Forget for awhile world war and revisit some of my works....

My Church, Your Church

The vicious cycle of sectarianism still occupies the heart of many Christians today. Churches advertise "Non Sectarian, Full Gospel, and Bible Base"  doctrines which I now presume was just mere propaganda of some Denominations whose intent was really to suck you inside their flock and consider the "other" Body of Christ as actual threat to their numbers or to your salvation.
   I just wonder if numbers would justify the "blessedness" of a Church. Wasn't it the fruits that matters? 
     There is either one, true religion or there is no religion at all.
   Did God really intended Judaism to be a religion? For all I know, God intended Israel to be an example to Nations. The same goes with Christianity...as salt to the world.
   God intend to establish a Kingdom and Not Religion. We can read "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness" -- Matthew 6:33...
   Religion focus on the rituals and observance of man made traditions while genuine Christianity is more focus on grace; obedience and fulfillment trough the help of the Holy Spirit.



Did Jesus Abolished The Laws and Command
   A lot of people think that Jesus already abolished the laws and commandment after He had completed His sacrifices but is that true?
Matthew 5:17-20
"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven."

   Jesus' teachings on the Law also focused on inward obedience, or obedience of the heart, rather than outward, legalistic obedience (Mt 5:21-28). Furthermore, Matthew 15:17-20 contains the same teaching that in Mark is explicitly interpreted as saying that all foods are clean (Mk 7:14-23).

How Books Came To Me

How I got my first Holy Bible (King James Version) is a miracle in itself. An answered prayer, that some of you might simply dismiss as pure coincidence. Although, I've said before that coincidences are usually divine by origins. Actually most of the books that gave me vital information came to my possession in remarkable ways. As if, Heaven had dictated and orchestrated that it should fall on my lap. 
   The first Bible that I ever read, was those mini pocket size book given for free by Gideon Bible society. That was during high school that got me really  interested into reading. Perhaps the first book, that I actually read from cover to cover. I don't have a good academic habit...but when it comes to reading the Bible, I do it constantly. 
   But the copy that I had then only had the New Testament books, with the psalms and proverbs. 
   My interest on the scripture then was actually just mere curiosity or as pass time activities...Well, maybe a sincere search for the truth sometimes...

   After the nth times of reading the New Testament I've prayed to God that He would let me have the Old Testament collections also. In few months that request was given...I had the complete KJV Holy Bible with concordance. 
   The amazing thing about it was that it was a personal Bible of a Christian Minister...whom he gave to his nephew, who was at that moment uninterested and an inactive Christian, who in turn gave the copy to me. 
   Later on, his newly born baby, is perhaps the first human being that I pray over to be dedicated to God...we do not Baptize someone who can not answer for him or her self. His father was crying with real tears that time, and said I have a very powerful praying voice.   
   Back to the book story, The church leader explained, that it is for his personal use, and was used for his preaching. Thus, it has some sentimental value for him...
   It may not be that incredible to be considered as a miracle, but it is an answered prayer nonetheless. There is always something special in this Bible, that it is still my favorite Bible, even if newer versions are much easy to read. Well, it was only lately, that I've discover that most versions of the Bible are being corrupted. It's not God's plan to confuse His people but this is simply to show that there are evil people willing to conceal revelations and spiritual understanding. This torn and almost brittle book is still the best source of inspiration to me even if its hard cover are gone...
   Anyway, during my earlier life as an infant Christian, I had the passion to understand or to know more about God and about His words. So I asked again, that He would give me the wisdom to understand what I am reading or what He really intend to say. I ask for wisdom to understand the Bible. The Bible was so important that God himself, caused it to be written and bind together. So, I thought if it is important to God, then it should be taken to heart. 


   His answers came in rather unusual way, which further strengthen my faith in God and to His son Jesus. How books slowly build up on my collection was a remarkable story to tell...
   As if God is giving me a background on what's really happening in the world...
   I was introduced into the occult world. This was of course unknown to me during that time. I thought I can practice fortune telling and still be a good Christian. I've been an unwilling victim into the esoteric agenda. I became interested in reading occult manuscripts and even went to The National Libraries to research about these things. 
   One by one, books and resources came...not from the libraries but by unknown mysterious ways...an instance: one of the most important discovery that actually lead me into further reading and research was Hal Lindsay's "Satan is alive and well on planet earth...", it gave some of the basic deception of Satan, in spite of it strange title was actually a very revealing article that I would suggest for beginners. This I've just found among my books...how it came to be there was unexplained. No one in my family knew...
   I just don't understand how I came to own some of my books. I just found them on my rack, and yes although I bought some too, most of the books that had been an eye opening to me came in rather strange way. Like, I would   discover a brand new, unused (you can tell it by the smell) book inside a trash can...somebody must have been feeding me with this resources....
   Or at one time, my mother would bring dozens of books, given to her by friends saying they came from so and so who were having spring cleaning...and out of this collections I would found some of the best information, that during the time of my reading actually didn't make sense but in the long run was proven a vital information. This just didn't happen once or twice, but many times...
   I would find pocketbooks, journals, or diaries  inside taxis, jeeps, or bus...if there were people who are fortunate to find lost cash on the streets or vehicles, I have this strong magnetism in reading materials...
   Reading material just came to me. Even those pocketbook, or novels that I have read came to be a preparations or advance knowledge for a future research...some are good literary piece but as I digress now, came to realized they were part of the puzzle. 
   Now, most of the books are gone...thanks to typhoons and floods but their lessons remain... and the mysteries of their appearance still lingers.

When Visions Fade

When you no longer enjoy what you are doing, maybe it's time to give it up. 
   I knew you spend blood, sweat, and tears trying to reach where you are now. The small restaurant you open 10 years ago now had a steady stream of costumers but the usual joy of serving the costumer had become a monotonous routine. You'd been leading the flock of your congregation for 25 years, this had been God's calling but you feel you have taught everything you knew and there isn't any new topic to preach. You were named "employee of the month" for the 10th times, you've reach the pedestal, your career has reach its peak...so where are you going after these goal was reached?
   Sometimes, we became attached into something that no longer need us. 

   When I was young, the world seems to be mine for the taking...I join core groups, actively participate in every causes there is, and sometimes even willing to risk life to some of these.
   Some dreams dies too. 

   It's time to create new visions....




Acts 20:35

New International Version (NIV)
35 In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’

   My face painting stint yesterday came smooth with some people inquiring about my service and it just mean that I impress or get the attention of people. Glory to God. It was held at The Sonoma in Sta. Rosa. I will remember the long walk to the venue. I was not able to take pictures because my new iphone is still not charging.



The cold weather is keeping me sleepy the whole day. The Northeastern monsoon has just started to bring in cold breeze...and these season is expected to last till February. 
   It's not just a change of season that we should be wary...something is about to happen, some sources predicted it will occur within 2-3 month from now. Force famine and declarations of Martial Laws in Major cities of the World. 
   Here are some samples of prelude act to justify that we need martial law: One of those are synchronized gruesome acts from mind-control victims such as that of Sandy Hook Elementary School Massacre and China Stabbing....or do you still remember The Dark Knights Premier mass killing? People are going nuts. 

   I told you before that before an actual NWO Conspiracy attack, it is often announce via mass media like Hollywood film or shown as an episode thru TV series or specials.  This Elite Satanic cult believes that by acting it out first it  guarantees the fulfillment of the actual plan. They believe in ceremonial pre-enactment like what happen during 9/11 attack. It was shown first on shows like X-files and the cartoon series Simpsons. 
   Some media files are use to brainwash while others to self-destruction like those of music videos. 

   You'll also notice these signs in the skies. Chemtrails...



Strange Activism!!!

Mystery as American drone is found floating off the coast of the Philippines... 1,000 miles away from the nearest U.S. base


   A spokesman for the U.S. Embassy in Manila said officials were trying to work out whether the one which was found near Masbate had in fact been used by the Navy.

   She added that the drone was not armed and had not been used for surveillance.

   While the Philippines used to host multiple U.S. military bases, the American naval facility in the country was shut down more than two decades ago.
   The nearest U.S. Navy base to Masbate is the facility in the Japanese province of Okinawa, around 1,000 miles away. (Read More)

     Next photo is another drone use for surveillance...just in case you've seen one hovering over your head.

Art Journals Parody

The question now is my ability to battle my own self. The competition is not about others and have realized that my greatest  opponent is myself.

So besides all other purposes, sometimes, well, most of the time actually is that my visual manuscripts often echo these fights...or struggle.
   Have I done enough to be really be accepted within the circle? Following mandate, rules, and accepted human facts isn't much of my forte in terms of art. I am too lazy to go linear.
   It should have been more financially liberating if I obey the systems. Only if I painted more instead of unleashing my thoughts and feelings. 
   But my visual manuscripts are life force--a support system that enables me to reflect and breath within. A rest from weariness. Maybe you may not understand but these so called waste of energies are my treasure.
   I have very rare individual piece...which is by the way may be subjected to change too. So those who own my work, they are rare treasure indeed and count yourself lucky. 

   Here I am dictated by choices...I'm still fortunate because most people doesn't have much of the choice.
   I am once again running away from the circle of which I am already in. I can not caste myself in a system...or sets of dimension. I am free...
   

   There is always something good, worthwhile, and beautiful to look forward to in whatever situation.

Choices

Choices...
Once again we will be facing choices...
Some choices necessary while others are by force or obligation.

  We shape our future by choices--some are difficult and some are sprinkled with serendipity. Most choices are done in haste while others leave us no choice at all...but still it was a choice. 
   Resolutions are done in choices. To be what you want to be is a choice.

   If I had the chance to choose what would it be?
   Sometimes we rather not choose.

Religious Freedom?


Freedom To Practice Your Religion

Religious Tolerance
   We as God children are told, not to adopt any of the Heathens traditions nor duplicate their religious practices. Because of these commandments, Early Christians were greatly persecuted because of their disagreement with pagan or heathen practices that surrounds them. Although generally Christians would not initiate an argument but at the same time would never compromise their faith…
   Truly, it often causes their life to obey God. Many were fed to the lions, made as Gladiators for spectacle, crucified, burn at the stake, or stone to death…
   Yet today, I constantly observe Christians doing and observing the way of the Heathen. Are they afraid to be persecuted? or simply trying to adopt with his unbeliever neighbor? or they just want social acceptance? It may not be popular because you would either be called trouble maker or be accused of extreme religious zealot. After all, Christians should be peace-makers.
   What are God’s expectations? Up to what level of tolerance can children of God extend that he or she does need to compromise their faith? 
The Critical Mass
    I sometimes do sideline job as a photographer on wedding ceremony. I have been in to different kind of churches and religions…was it a sin to kneel in the altar of unbeliever? Personally, I don’t consider myself bowing to idols inside a Catholic church…but for the sake of meekness I join the crowd to kneel but if there’s a chair around I opted to sit down. In the first place, I was there as guest. Being disrespectful isn't a godly virtue…I was there to work and not to worship idols anyway. I know God would understand.
   Right now, there is a bill in congress under stipulation whether a public or private establishment should remove religious icon or not?  I forgot the name of the politician lobbying this into law but some of the suggested provisions would include removal of religious activities inside government facilities.
   Now if my bosses worship Buddha or even the Devil, what can I do? I’m just an employee. If you’re not comfortable working there, then leave…
   I’ve never been into a Muslim country so I can’t tell if they push anyone to worship Allah. Anyway the Koran speaks that all unbeliever should be destroyed…(that’s another story)
   Everything is permissible for me—but I will not be mastered by anything.
   Respect is vital in any relationship. We are told by Jesus to love our enemy and those that persecute us.   

   But there are limitations. We should learn from Daniel how he acted inside the Palace of the Babylonian king. He excuse himself from eating food that the Hebrew was not allowed to eat. But today, Christians would even practice ritual that we are not suppose to be doing…
   One of them is Chanting that the unaware Christian adopted…they have no idea at all that it is an Occult practice related to Demon worship since Ancient times, practiced by the Babylonian, Egyptians, and Canaanites in worshiping their gods. 
   You wont find any law that requires people of God to chant His name. In fact, there was no proper name given to Israel how He was suppose to be called…the Bible was said to have around 72 titles for God like Adonai or I AM. Jesus instructs us to simply call His Father as Father. Not even an adjective of Holy before the name, which was often sacrilegiously practiced by RCC to call the Papal seat as Most Holy Father or Holy See.
   Chanting is invoking spirits to overtake an individual into a trance state. Often this meditation practice is followed with breathing exercises that allows the brain to enter the Alpha or Delta state, depending on the guru you are dealing with. Which practitioner claims they become more relax and enter into a state of Blissfulness. I doubt the calmness because Satan can transform himself into an angel of light. In fact, he was chief angels before his fall bearing the title “The Morning Star”.
Tolerance Can Sometimes Consume the Truth
  This is nothing new at all. When Rome declares Christianity as its official religion after around 3 centuries of trying to eradicate Jesus Christ followers, many of the new converts still can’t get away from their old practices and traditions.  To convince more converts, they allowed  practices and rituals to adapt in their new found faith in Christianity. But as years progress, paganism has already become a malignant cancer.
   If the apostle were alive today, they would not recognized the gospel this new religious leaders are teaching us.
   According to the Esoteric Religions we are on this generation into the Age of Aquarius, where similar to the water sign, humanity by the aid of cosmic forces shall be guided to enlightenment…the awakening of the soul or to the realization that we are part of god, or actually into a process of becoming god ourselves.
   The very same deception that the Serpent of old employed to deceived Eve and then Adam. “You shall become like gods…” if you eat the forbidden fruits. Generations after generations we have seen people claiming to be gods.

   It is no surprise since many false prophet will come out teaching the doctrine of men as if they were the doctrines of God.

2012 In Random Illuminations

The Mayan Apocalypse was definitely on top of the list...in perspective, if you were in Compostela Valley or at Sandy Hook Elementary School the world does end in December 2012.
     
   I'll try to recall what have hit us last year...
   First there was those close fights in International scene like Jessica Sanchez coming second against Philip Philips on American Idol and then  Janine Tugonon came also second in Ms. Universe. Therefore, Filipinos still have reasons to celebrate after all...

 But the epic fail was two of Manny Pacquiao's fight this year  was a disappointment. 
  The revenge was taken by Nonito Donaire when he knock down another Mexican. 
   First half of 2012 was the CJ Corona Trial drama when they ousted a Supreme Court Justice, it was the first in Philippine political history. 
    On my birthday last year July 10 the king of Comedy Dolphy died.
   Mother nature did some heavy damages too that year...like the landslide in Negros and Cebu. 
   Judas of Lady Gaga create quite a stir but the concert still manage to pack people which some says the church mandate doesn't ring anymore. This can be reflected also when RH Bill gain majority approval from our legislature.
   But the Pinoy Catholics had its moment of joy when they get there 2nd Filipino saints. 

   The Netizen went on an uproar when the Cyber Crime Prevention Act was passed in September. 

    Last year also when the tension between China and Philippines rekindled over the disputed West Philippine Seas.  
   Amalayer vs. Lady Guard in LRT and then Mon Tulfo badly beaten by Raymart and cohorts also known as the thrilla in NAIA. This is what happen when you give a person a camera on there cellphones.



   What are the best remembered dance tune? Oppa Gangnam and Cha Cha Dabarkads of course. How about love song? Pusong Bato, I guess. :)

Profile of a Campus Murderer, a ticking time bomb


2 Corinthians 2:4 For I wrote to you out of much affliction and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to cause you pain but to let you know the abundant love that I have for you.
Much had been said about the terrible mass murder in Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut, USA and it's counterpart   in Chenpeng village somewhere in central China so I wont go into detail anymore. What I will try to illuminate this time are the side issues that authorities associate about the shocking News, like gun ban and drugs.
    While those in Chinese elementary school is fortunate that none have died but the shattering incident in Sandy Hook made me quiver at the mere thought so I dare not go again into detail of how painful it is and I prefer not to go thru the process of re-posting the images again...
    28 died including the gunman and his mother in Connecticut. What I can not fathom at this moment is why school children?
     As I've said, the world is turning very dangerous as days goes by...
   The issue had turn out to be on "gun ban" which I believe wont solve anything or deter such crime of the same magnitude. Disarming the people, as the case in China where a mad man uses only kitchen knife clearly shows isn't simply banning fire arms but the mental state of the people. 
    We don't need national debate again here. These are evil acts and the only thing that can extinguished evil is good.
   Are we going to miss the point again? Gun or without gun; evil will still find ways to destroy our lives and livelihood. Even on places we thought we are secure. 
   Let us try to unravel the warning signs by re-examining some of the 

   High Profile Campus Murder
   Know the warning signs. Sudden and dramatic changes in behavior can be an early warning sign that something is wrong.


   1. University of Iowa graduate student Gang Lu's anger over his doctoral dissertation not winning an academic award appears to be the motivation for his targeted killings. On Nov. 1, 1991, Lu shot three professors, a rival student (who won a dissertation award), a student employee, the vice president of student affairs and then himself. Only the student employee survived but is a quadriplegic from the injuries sustained.
   2. At approximately 10:25 a.m., on Oct. 2, 2006, Charles Carl Roberts entered an Amish schoolhouse with several weapons and ordered all the males and a few females with babies out of the building. He then boarded up and barricaded the doors. Roberts forced the remaining girls to line up and shot them at close range; in the final count he injured five and killed five and himself. 
   3. The so-called Stockton Massacre occurred on Jan. 17, 1989, beginning around 11:40 a.m. Patrick E. Purdy walked on to school grounds and began shooting while about 400-500 kids were playing at recess. Despite having a criminal record, he had been able to legally purchase the semi-automatic rifle and two pistols used in the attack. Purdy killed five students, injured 29 others and one teacher, and took his own life.
   Racism is the believed motivation, as most of the students were children of Southeast Asian refugees.
   4. This massacre was one of the first to take place on the grounds of a university. On Aug. 1, 1966, Charles Joseph Whitman, a student at the University of Texas at Austin and a discharged Marine, entered the Main Building's tower shortly after 11:30 a.m., armed with seven guns and various other weapons and supplies. Whitman killed a receptionist and two others in the tower before barricading himself on the tower observation deck. He shot from the vantage point for around 96 minutes, apparently randomly picking victims. Whitman was eventually killed by police, who managed to get to the deck. Around 30 people were injured and 18 were killed. The latter included Whitman, his wife and mother — whom he had killed the night before to spare from having to deal with his actions — and most recently, in 2001, a victim who died from injury complications. 

   The Attention Seeker
   But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.--Matthew 6:33
  The need for attention is a basic human need but Lack of affection and understanding are the common driving force in campus attacks. It targeted the innocent, the week, the helpless people...all they care about is attention without ambition. To them, the final goal is the attention itself. Once the needed false attention is achieve it turns into pride. 
   Parent should teach their children the value of reciprocity. You need to give in order to receive. We must plant the seed of love first before we ask for it. 
   If you want to stop attention seeking behavior then you first have to give them what they want (attention) for other more positive things.
1 John 4:7-8
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.
   Focus on The Giver and Not on The Gift
    It is simply not having a form of religion or a belief in a god. Most of these killers are believers too in God. But they just believe and that's all...
   Men need a constant fellowship and everyday meditation in the word of God. The whole purpose of Christian meditation is to know God. As simple as it sounds its true. God calls us to an intimate relationship where we can know him and his will.
   A little caution though on meditation. Christian meditation is not like what pagan Mantras where they recite some memorized words over and over again. This was forbidden by Jesus Christ himself...
And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. -- Matthew 6:7
   It is not about emptying the minds and go into a state of trance. On the contrary, we need to be totally aware but not distracted by noises or negative thoughts. Knowing God does not follow any program or a method, it is spirit led but not exorcism. Eastern meditation is an attempt to empty the mind; Christian meditation is an attempt to fill the mind. 
   Do not let your mind aimlessly wander around the tasks, noise, and worries of everyday life. 

   Anyway, Can we avoid these campus killings?  Gun banned? or re-introduce Bible Study on campuses? One thing that I am sure of is that God fearing people will not even think about gruesome crime.
