Thiel: Those With Dementia Are Cursed For Disobeying God's Laws




The non-ordained self -appointed false prophet Bob Thiel is weighing in on dementia.  It still amazes me that Armstrongites attribute everything that goes wrong with a persons health  is  because of sin in the persons life.   Armstrongism's magical God is pissed and ready to strike disobedient people at the slightest whim.  Apparently a big cosmic joke is upon us all.

I know people who have done everything imaginable in their lives, treated people like dirt and  are as sharp as can be.  Others who drip with Christian hospitality and  grace have one horrendous health issue after another. 

The non-ordained self-appointed false prophet writes:

Dementia seems to be a curse from a biblical perspective:
15 “But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments and His statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:
16 “Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the country…
28 The Lord will strike you with madness and blindness and confusion of heart.  (Deuteronomy 28:15-16, 28)
Note: I am not saying that all who get dementia have intentionally violated God’s laws, etc.  But what I am trying to say is that dementia and costs associated with it are consistent with curses against a society that should know God’s laws but refuses to obey God.

Dudeism: "An ancient philosophy that preaches non-preachiness."



For those burned out on the mentally ill buffoons and charlatans in Armstrongism, here is a church you can join and feel at ease:  The Church of the Latter Day Dude  or Dudeism.

David Renz: Another COG Murderer and Child Molester In The News


Here is another sad legacy of the Armstrongism.  A child of former members has killed a school librarian and raped a 10 year old child. 

I am sure this guys life was hell growing up, even in the church.  Knowing how COG kids treated those not part of the "in" crowd, I can imagine his life in WCG was not a good one either.  Those of us in Pasadena have seen this kind of treatment by church youth at Imperial Schools when Apartian's son killed him self with a shotgun blast to the face.  He was not treated well by Imperials students and was always an outsider because of his looks.

Renz’s life was dominated by his deformity, his friends and family friends say. But now it is dominated by the unthinkable things police say he did March 14.

Renz, 29, was charged that day with kidnapping, stabbing and killing school librarian Lori Bresnahan and raping a 10-year-old girl. Police said he followed them in the parking lot of Great Northern Mall and attacked them.
 
Renz was born missing the lower half of his left jaw and part of his cheekbone.

From infancy, fixing Renz’s face was the center of his life and his family’s. A family friend who attended the Worldwide Church of God said he remembers Renz’s parents coming to church when Renz was just a baby.

At 8, he was a computer whiz, Kyser said, and had four computers of his own. But he lived in a cluttered trailer in Cicero that looked like something out of the TV show “Hoarders,” she said. And his parents’ religion kept Renz from celebrating Christmas and birthdays, she said.

Their church, Worldwide Church of God, is a fundamentalist Christian group that doesn't celebrate Christmas and celebrates the Sabbath on Saturday instead of Sunday.
