Control the mind of the masses. The money and property that the Vatican controls would astound anyone. It is not the benevolent entity that most believe. It has been that way from the beginning. Hey Palma,
You said,“The Church as an establishment is a power monster for mind control…”

Right! Which is absurd, considering that this is exactly what happened to the first Christians, slaughtered in the Coliseum. The Church as an establishment is a power monster for mind control, nothing to do with following the teachings of Jesus! A microscopic portion of the unimaginable riches of the Vatican, would be enough to feed all starving children that will die today... I can hardly imagine Jesus hoarding riches, and not trying to help. .-= Palma | Buddha Trance´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/buddhatrance/~3/hs8NGDyvwmM/food-the-transmutation-of-matter-into-consciousness" rel="nofollow">Food: the transmutation of matter into consciousness</a> =-.

The things they did to make Christianity what it is today. There are many more teachings of Christ that were not included in the canonized bible. The Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Mary is another that depict Jesus as a mortal. They even talk about Jesus being married to Mary Magdalene. These things were left out because the church wanted to deify Jesus. there were also the Gnostic gospels from other groups of the same period as Jesus that spoke on many of the same things as Christ and more on metaphysical subjects. These sects and there followers were literally crushed by the Roman Catholic Church and the Roman army. The were labeled as heretics and given the death penalty and killed for practicing and believing something different from "The Church." Can you imagine that today? The Church has had thousands of years to develop its methods and tactics to enslave the minds of millions. Christianity is not the benevolent source of spiritual knowledge as people want to believe it is. It has been a tool for control from the beginning. People simply have to research the history. It not hard to find. But I think most people love a good fairy tell more than the truth on any day. Hi Palma,

I often wondered how much of the original teachings of Jesus went lost, modified or destroyed by the Church, when they did not match its political agenda and they were to risky to be left available for future interpretations by more educated masses. Luckily, the fact that the Kingdom of God is within us, is all we really need to know to find our own connection with God/Source. .-= Palma | Buddha Trance´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.buddhatrance.com/primordial-sound-and-the-origin-of-matter" rel="nofollow">Primordial sound and the origin of matter</a> =-.

I agree with you that it is very liberating to free ones self from the yoke of a fear based thought process. For me I totally rebeled against my religious upbringing. I considered myself atheist in my college days. I progressed from atheist to agnostic. Eventually I came back to Christianity for awhile but just still had this hollow feeling about it. It just was not right. I am now on journey that quickens my spirit everyday! You are so right, Love is the best remedy for fear. Know thy self and love thyself. I added that last part to the original. :) Hi Carmellita,
