The Wages of Sin

JDA has a new book out that addresses a very serious flaw in the modern Church:

Jon Del Arroz’s new book, The Wages of Sin, is out today. It follows Churchianity, for which I wrote the introduction and which hit #1 in Amazon’s religious philosophy category last year. Where Churchianity diagnosed the consumer-driven model reshaping American parishes, the new book turns to a word Del Arroz says most pulpits quietly retired: sin.

The Wages of Sin builds its structure on the Confiteor, the confession prayer Catholics have recited at every Mass since at least the tenth century. Del Arroz splits the book into four sections, one for each phrase of the prayer: thoughts, words, deeds, and omissions. Nine chapters work through the sins Augustine confessed in his Confessions, including pride dressed as worship, envy refined into schadenfreude, the spiritual torpor the Church Fathers called acedia, and the four sins Scripture names as crying out to heaven for vengeance. Each chapter closes with an examination of conscience, and the appendix adds a full one plus a vice-virtue table for daily use.

The book leans on Augustine’s framework of sin as disordered love: not a checklist of prohibitions, but the habit of loving the wrong things, or loving right things out of order. Del Arroz traces that idea into Romans 6:23 and the Catechism’s teaching on mortal sin, arguing that a Church which stopped naming sin also stopped being able to prescribe its cure.

The post-1960s idea of welcoming sinners into the church and refraining from judgment was correct in theory and flawed in application. The point is to welcome the sinner, not to accept and embrace the sin. And now we have “churches” featuring open satanists pretending to be priests and pastors, preaching blasphemy from the pulpits.

One hopes The Wages of Sin will help restore much-needed order to the Christian churches.

Theology Adjacent

As you probably know, I am highly allergic to theology and regard most of it as varying degrees of human philosophy dressed up as Divine revelation. The obvious holes in most dogma are the result of the same sort of amphiboly and ambiguity that render Enlightenment philosophy intrinsically flawed, and assuming one possible interpretation is the only one in obvious contravention of the observable facts. So, in the interest of maintaining the peace with other Christians, I keep my critiques to myself, particularly because I have no answers to replace those flawed dogmas.

If I had to summarize my Christian dogma, I would say that I am of the Glass Darkly School.

That being said, it is not possible to construct a metaphysics, as I am presently doing for the Veriphysics philosophical system, without addressing things like Truth, God, and Logos. So, if these matters are of interest to you, you may wish to peruse the outline that is being assembled at Veriphysics.

I would, however, caution the midwits that in this context, citing historical authorities and dogmas accomplishes nothing. If you wish to offer criticism, it has to be within the system itself; what Tertullian or Aquinas or Voltaire or the Pope said is of zero import for the purposes of this exercise.

Cathedra Four

The fourth book in the Castalia Cathedra series of leatherbound Christian titles is APOLOGETICUS by Quintus Septimus Florens Tertullian.

Apologeticus is a text attributed to Tertullian according to Christian tradition, consisting of apologetic and polemic. In this work Tertullian defends Christianity, demanding legal toleration and that Christians be treated like all other sects of the Roman Empire. It is in this treatise that one finds the sentence “Plures efficimur, quotiens metimur a vobis: semen est sanguis Christianorum,” which has been liberally and apocryphally translated as “the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church” (Apologeticus, L.13). The simplest and most faithful rendering remains: We multiply when you reap us. The blood of Christians is seed.

The Castalia Cathedra edition will also include seven more of the great Latin Father’s works. For more information about the fourth Cathedra subscription book, visit Castalia Library. The Cathedra series is:

  1. THE EVERLASTING MAN by GK Chesterton
  2. ON PRAYER by Thomas Aquinas
  3. PENSÉES by Blaise Pascal
  4. APOLOGETICUS by Tertulian

Never Assume Stupidity

A foolish aphorism known as Hanlon’s razor says “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”

This is foolish and short-sighted. All adopting it accomplishes is to offer cover to the malicious and allow them to hide behind their multiple levels of deception. Consider the following comments made in response to a wicked fake philosopher seeking to convince others to submit to evil.

  • Sounds like the guy posted his shroom trip.
  • I became more retarded reading that retards nonsense.
  • Stones can’t dance; why do they spout such idiocy? Recycled Taoist mysticism.
  • Sounds VERY Hindu/Indian, or wearing those trappings at least
  • Sounds like some Psilocybin based philosophy from a 90’s art student.

It’s vital to not fall for the primary deception. But it’s also important to not fall for the secondary deception that allows the wicked to retreat while continuing to move and operate freely under the cover of harmless stupidity.

Always attribute to malice that which gives off even the faintest hint of sulfur, no matter how stupid it is. Neither demons nor the wicked are particularly known for their intelligence.

The Damned Live in Fear

Tucker Carlson places his faith in the right place:

American journalist Tucker Carlson has told RT that he is not afraid of being killed for using his platform to say what he believes is true.

The former Fox News host has adopted a staunch non-interventionist stance toward US involvement in foreign conflicts in recent years, breaking sharply with President Donald Trump on key foreign policy issues such as Washington’s war on Iran and support for Israel. Since leaving the news network, Carlson’s podcast has routinely garnered millions of views and featured high-profile interviews, including a 2024 conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

In an exclusive interview with RT’s Rick Sanchez on Wednesday, Carlson said he had “got old enough and insulated enough from the normal levers of control to say what I really think is true. What are you going to do about it? Kill me? OK, I’m not afraid of that. I’m a Christian. So I’m just going to keep talking.

“This Iran war, the war with Russia – these are the things that will destroy the US, and I live here and my family’s been here for 350 years, and… I don’t want to see my country destroyed,” he said.

Let the monsters live in fear. They know they’re damned, so they have to make the most of this life because it’s all they’ve got. For the Christian, death is just the beginning of life.

Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

A lot of people quite rightly have questions about Tucker and his CIA links. He has almost certainly served as a gatekeeper of sorts in the past. And perhaps he still does, although his recent interviews tend to argue against that. But I don’t think one can reasonably doubt his commitments to either Jesus Christ or America.

A Little Church Music

I usually try to produce a weekly video for AI Central on Saturday, but for various budgetary reasons I wasn’t planning to do one this week. However, a few things came together at the right time, in the right way, so if you’d like to check out a video for a new mix of Book of Ephesians, you can do so at AI Central, as well as learn about the tools and technical details involved.

A Reminder

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Because sometimes even Christians need to be reminded that everywhere throughout this fallen world of clowns, demons, spirits, and cannibals, Jesus Christ is still King. And we’re told that the power of music can drive the demons away.

When you’re feeling oppressed, or depressed, or afraid, do three things.

  1. Pray.
  2. Read your Bible.
  3. Crank those two new mixes.

The Lies of Judeo Peterson

Jordan Peterson has set aside the apple cider and the meth long enough to delve into Judeo-Christian mythology.

With regard to “Judeo Christian”:

The 10 Commandments are Jewish.

The great stories of the Old Testament are Jewish.

The Jews developed the idea of subsidiarity as the alternative to tyranny and slavery.

The Jews established the cultural preconditions for the rise of universal literacy.

The fate of Israel at the hands of the Islamists is the fate of the West.

This rising tide of anti-semitism sickens me. Those of you engaging in it for your oh-so-moral reasons—you’re despicable.

And remember, you proud “Christians” objecting in all your purity to the term:

Christ Himself was a Jew.

First, the 10 Commandments are not, and have never been, Jewish. They are divine. Even if we credit them to Moses, Moses was not of the tribe of Judah. Moses was a Levite.

Second, a few of the great stories of the Old Testament are Jewish, but most of them are not. In fact, the first two Jewish stories from the Bible involve a) slavery, and b) incest. Judah was the one who convinced his brothers to sell Joseph into slavery rather than killing him and was later seduced by his daughter-in-law and had not one, but two sons by her.

Third, Jews were the biggest slave owners in American history and the primary owners of the New World slave trade. They have never had any moral problem with slavery, and some of them still believe that their satanic god is going to provide each of them with more than two thousand slaves apiece when they rule the world.

Fourth, Gutenberg wasn’t a Jew. Also, what universal literacy? Literacy rates have been falling in the West for decades.

Fifth, Israel is currently a significant problem for the West. The West’s fate is not tied to Israel’s in any way, shape, or form.

Sixth, anyone who believes that anti-satanism is anti-semitism is a satanist. Repent.

And finally, Jordan Peterson has absolutely no standing to say anything whatsoever about Christianity. He is, quite literally, on the other side and a servant of evil, both material and spiritual. He is an occultist and a blasphemer, and his own books indicate that he is at least demonically-oppressed, if not actually possessed.

Jesus Christ of Nazareth was a Nazarene and possibly of the tribe of Judah, although the Bible never identifies to which tribe Mary belonged. We know that Joseph was of the tribe of Judah, but Jesus was not his son. The Romans have a better documented claim to him. Regardless, Jesus Christ does not appear to have ever been a member of the satanic Babylonian religious group that hated him and demanded his death; at that time the Pharisees were mostly, though not exclusively, Levites. It is blasphemy to claim that Jesus Christ was a Jew; he was the Son of God, not a son of the Father of Lies.

Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would. And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas. Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ? For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.

When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him. But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas. Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified. And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.

When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it. Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.

The word “judeo-christian” is a satanic rhetorical lie concocted by a small number of Jewish leaders after WWII in order to better help them integrate and gain influence in what was then Christian America. The Chosen, a great novel by Chaim Potok, describes that era. Prior to WWII, the term indicated a former Jew who had converted to Christianity.

This was my direct response to Peterson’s tweet, in addition to the Stonetoss comic.

You’re a satanic liar, Judeo-Peterson. I called you out about your lies concerning Jewish IQ years ago, and now you’re lying about Jesus Christ himself. Also, Moses was a Levite, you apple cider-addled moron. The Old Testament isn’t “Jewish” at all.

Those who lie about the past always rely upon the amphibolic redefinition. It should be no surprise that it was the specific tactic utilized here.

The Architecture of the Lie

And remember, just like Covid vaccine, most of your friends and family are going to fall for this one. It’s going to be a lot more convincing, and a lot more “proven” than any of the Covid nonsense ever was. And the social and economic pressure to submit to it is going to be even harsher.

The Birth of a Unified Cosmic Spirituality

The convergence produces a religion with six defining features:

  1. Universalism — all paths lead to the same cosmic source.
  2. Evolutionary spirituality — humanity is ascending to a higher state.
  3. Extraterrestrial cosmology — the universe is populated with guiding intelligences.
  4. Technological mysticism — miracles are framed as advanced science.
  5. Mandatory unity — religious exclusivity is dangerous.
  6. Allegiance to the Beast — loyalty becomes a spiritual duty.

This is not secularism.
This is hyper‑religion — mystical, cosmic, scientific, and compulsory.

It is the religion of the world.

The Continual: The One Faith That Cannot Be Absorbed

Every religion can be reframed as extraterrestrial.

Except one.

The Continual — the Christ‑only covenant witness — cannot be merged, reinterpreted, or absorbed. It is exclusive, covenantal, and rooted in the identity of the Messiah.

It stands outside the cosmic narrative.
It refuses to bow to the universal myth.
It cannot be rewritten.

Therefore:

  • it becomes the enemy of unity,
  • the threat to human evolution,
  • the obstacle to global harmony.

This is why it must be outlawed.

This is why the saints become the target.

This is why the Beast makes war.

The Continual is the stone the builders reject — again.

The Final Shape of the Global Religion

The convergence produces a system with:

  • One narrative — cosmic origins and cosmic destiny.
  • One interpreter — the False Prophet.
  • One embodiment — the Antichrist.
  • One unifying myth — humanity joining the cosmic family.
  • One forbidden belief — exclusive devotion to Christ.

This is the religion of the world.

This is the Empire That Never Ended, as Philip K. Dick described it. It survived the Romans, the Crusaders, the Conquistadors, and the Inquisitions. And the alien deception is going to be its next variant, perhaps even its final variant, although the history of failed apocalypses tends to testify otherwise.

Regardless, recognize it and reject it. In nomine Jesu.

The Alien Hoax is Coming

Werner von Braun warned of this nearly 80 years ago.

Influential pastors are claiming that they have been told to prepare their followers for shocking revelations about UFOs which may upend belief in the Bible.

Perry Stone, a well-known evangelist, author and Bible teacher from Tennessee, warned that fellow pastors were recently invited to a secret meeting with US intelligence officials to prepare for the release of secret files on extraterrestrials.

According to Stone, the officials warned a small group of pastors with a large reach in the Christian community that the government was about to release reports and possibly videos of aliens and spacecraft which were not from this planet.

In the April 27 video posted to his YouTube channel, the evangelist claimed that pastors were told about the existence of ‘reptilian’ creatures, UFOs and materials from a non-human origin and ‘other things that almost sound like something out of a sci-fi movie.’

On February 19, President Trump ordered the Pentagon and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to release all information the government possesses regarding UFOs and alien life. Last week, Trump said that the first files would be released ‘very, very soon’ and would contain some ‘very interesting’ things for the public.

You know it’s a psyop because they constantly talk about how this will somehow threaten the Christian faith. Which is absolutely absurd, given that Christianity literally requires the existence of beings from other dimensions interacting with humanity on the material plane.

The purpose of the revelation will be nefarious, of course, but what else is new on what is, after all, a fallen world. If they dislike the name of Jesus Christ, then it really doesn’t matter what they call themselves or where they say they’re from.
