OLD Green Deal for Earth Day 2019

When Pope Francis made his historic visit to Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Capitol in 2015, addressing Congress, the one who invited him, Speaker of the House John Boehner, sported a green tie.

Through a language interpreter, the laughing pope commented, "The tie is the color of hope." Teary-eyed Boehner replied, "We need a lot of hope today."

In the incredibly successful 2002 bible paraphrase called The Message, consistently ranked among the top-five bestselling bibles and endorsed by such Christian “heavyweights” as Billy Graham, Chuck Swindoll, Rick Warren, Max Lucado, etc., Romans 15:13 contains what someone called “the most bizarre statement ever in a mainstream Bible.”

The paraphrase verse reads, “Oh! May the God of green hope fill you up with joy, fill you up with peace, so that your believing lives, filled with the life-giving energy of the Holy Spirit, will brim over with hope!”

This compares to the King James Bible: “Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.”

An internet article, “The Green Hope,” written by Dr. Terry Watkins to confront New Age perversions in The Message, asks, “Who is the ‘God of green hope’? The ‘green hope’ originated with the hellish, human sacrificing, Druids.'

"The publication Talks on Freemasonry states, ‘Green was, with the Druids, a symbol of hope and the virtue of hope with a Freemason illustrates the hope of immortality.’ (Kenneth Tuckwood, Talks on Freemasonry).

“The ‘green hope’ mantra is a popular rallying cry in the new age Mother-Earth environmental movement. In the New Age Movement, ‘green’ signifies ‘Oneness with the Earth,’ hence the title of William Anderson’s book, ‘Green Man: The Archetype of Our Oneness with the Earth.’ ”

Watkins references page 159 of the “Dictionary of Symbolism,” considered the most comprehensive one-volume work on the language of symbols ever published, in which author Hans Biedermann notes:  “. . . the devil appears as ‘the green one’. . .”

As the universe’s fastest-growing religion, “Going Green” is positioned as a prime vehicle toward brainwashing the masses into endorsing the Antichrist’s Babel II.

The undeniable aim of our Dewey-Darwin American public school system is to instill a duty-mindset of justified persecution against any who don’t bow down to nature and the teensy-weensiest of its creatures and flora.

An article several years back in the Wall Street Journal rang the alarm-bell about “frighteningly pushy eco-lessons that now fill children’s books.”

“Contemporary children are so drenched with eco-propaganda that it’s almost a waste of resources,” warned the story. “Like acid rain, but more persistent and corrosive, it dribbles down on them all day long. They get it at school, where recycling now competes with tolerance as man’s highest virtue. The get it in the peppy ‘go green’ messages online, on television and in magazines.

“Susceptible children are left in no doubt that we’re all headed for a despoiled, immiserated future unless they start planting pansies in their old shoes, using dryer lint as mulch, and practicing periodic vegetarianism.

“Not surprisingly, many young people are anxious. The more impressionable among them are coming to believe that their smallest decisions could have catastrophic effects on the globe.”
