Amen Mr Golding. Religion has been used to rule the mases by fear to missinform people by putting words in God’s mouth…and in so doing they justify their sordid actions.

It is typical of Christian groups to express their faith in God in the context of Old Testament warrior Leaders & Kings. The historical narrative of a militant Christianity (of the Jesuit Soldier/Politican persona) is all too familiar and it differs little from the historical narrative of militant Islam since both come under the powerful spell of some dubious texts containing references to God as a Warrior God, that have been frozen in time by generations of imbecilic theologians and scholars who hand down the idea of it being holy without ever trying to understand the reality that as a canon it was the source of inspiration behind the justification for the murder of Jesus Christ.
I was shocked to see this rebel leader in one hand fly a banner bearing the name of Jesus and in another bear arms to bring so called ‘Christian’ justice to tribal rivalry. It was even more shocking to see another poster referring to Jesus as the inspiration for capitalistic success being proudly displayed by a business man engaged in dealing in coltan that he knew was giving credibility to the rebels as a legitimate Christian militia protecting the mining industry from competing neighbours.
Perhaps the most insane addition to the quagmire of portraying God as a defender of a particular tribe or culture is the fact that the entire African continent has been systematically exploited by mission based Western colonialism for centuries which has seen a deliberate and ill-conceived unfolding of a plan by the industrial elite of various European empirical households to keep African countries permanently locked into existing as raw material economies for the sole benefit of providing cheap materials for the fast expanding creative industrial economies of the all powerful West – inc China – a glorified Corporatised factory.
It is quite understandable, in view of the bigger picture of economic subjugation of this kind, for people to rebel against those they believe are taking advantage of their relatively undeveloped political infrastructure but it is frustrating to see how they are being manipulated by international corporate cartels virtually run by officers of Western States belonging to ‘Trusts’ and ‘Institutions’ where the chain of command acts like a parallel universe existing alongside the world of Government business that is sadly portrayed rather superficially by the BBC and other mainstream media outlets as a legitimate force for public good being ‘representative of the publics sovereign will’.
