Kwanzaa: A Fraud Holiday, Created With A Racist Goal, By A Criminal Madman

by Jeff Dunetz 

Those who are around my age woke up one December and discovered that the “holiday season” of Christmas and New Year’s became a trio, with the addition of something called Kwanzaa.  Oh  sure there were rumblings of a new holiday. But strangely in this country where political correctness is on overload, a day invented in 1966 by a rapist who ran a Black separatist group is considered by some as a holiday on par with Christmas, or New Year’s. Kwanzaa is an exclusively African American holiday and is not celebrated in any other part of the world (including Africa).

In 2016 Kwanzaa runs from December 26th-January 1st. It’s supposed to be a week-long holiday honoring African culture and traditions, but is tainted by it’s founder and original purpose.

The man who created the holiday, Maulana Karenga was convicted in 1971  of torturing two women who were members of US (United Slaves), a black nationalist cult he had founded. A May 14, 1971, article in the Los Angeles Times related the testimony of one of the women:

“Deborah Jones, who once was given the Swahili title of an African queen, said she and Gail Davis were whipped with an electrical cord and beaten with a karate baton after being ordered to remove their clothes. She testified that a hot soldering iron was placed in Miss Davis’ mouth and placed against Miss Davis’ face and that one of her own big toes was tightened in a vise. Karenga, head of US, also put detergent and running hoses in their mouths, she said.”

Karanga was convinced that the women were trying to poison him. He and three members of his cult had tortured the women in an attempt to find some nonexistent “crystals” of poison. Karenga thought his enemies were out to get him.

Now I am not a doctor, nor have I ever played one on television but this Karenga guy sounds like a paranoid psycho. Somehow I cannot see rational people wanting to observe a holiday created by such a sick violent man (but then again, Al Sharpton led two anti-Semitic pogroms and he is considered a civil rights leader).

Perhaps Kwanzaa is observed because this part of the Kwanzaa story is rarely mentioned by the mainstream media.

When he invented the holiday, Karenga said his goal was to

“give Blacks an alternative to the existing holiday and give Blacks an opportunity to celebrate themselves and history, rather than simply imitate the practice of the dominant society.”

Arguably, this holiday raised by some to the level of Christmas has the totally opposite purpose. While Christmas is meant to unify, Kwanzaa is meant to divide. Or as the then 16 year old Rev. Al Sharpton explained the feast would perform the valuable service of “de-whitizing” Christmas.

Heck even the scam’s creator, Maulana Karenga admitted it was a fraud.  In 1978 he told the Washington Post’s Hollie West:

“I created Kwanzaa,” laughed Ron Karenga like a teenager who’s just divulged a deeply held, precious secret. “People think it’s African. But it’s not. I wanted to give black people a holiday of their own. So I came up with Kwanzaa. I said it was African because you know black people in this country wouldn’t celebrate it if they knew it was American. Also, I put it around Christmas because I knew that’s when a lot of bloods (blacks) would be partying!”

The late Tony Snow laid out what was so wrong about the holiday 33 years after it was founded:

There is no part of Kwanzaa that is not fraudulent. Begin with the name. The celebration comes from the Swahili term “matunda yakwanza,” or “first fruit,” and the festival’s trappings have Swahili names — such as “ujima” for “collective work and responsibility” or “muhindi,” which are ears of corn celebrants set aside for each child in a family.

Unfortunately, Swahili has little relevance for American blacks. Most slaves were ripped from the shores of West Africa. Swahili is an East African tongue.

To put that in perspective, the cultural gap between Senegal and Kenya is as dramatic as the chasm that separates, say, London and Tehran. Imagine singing “G-d Save the Queen” in Farsi, and you grasp the enormity of the gaffe.

Worse, Kwanzaa ceremonies have no discernible African roots. No culture on earth celebrates a harvesting ritual in December, for instance, and the implicit pledges about human dignity don’t necessarily jibe with such still-common practices as female circumcision and polygamy. The inventors of Kwanzaa weren’t promoting a return to roots; they were shilling for Marxism. They even appropriated the term “ujima,” which Julius Nyrere cited when he uprooted tens of thousands of Tanzanians and shipped them forcibly to collective farms, where they proved more adept at cultivating misery than banishing hunger.

Even the rituals using corn don’t fit. Corn isn’t indigenous to Africa. Mexican Indians developed it, and the crop was carried worldwide by white colonialists.

The fact is, there is no Ur-African culture. The continent remains stubbornly tribal. Hutus and Tutsis still slaughter one another for sport.

(…) Our treatment of Kwanzaa provides a revealing sign of how far we have yet to travel on the road to reconciliation. The white establishment has thrown in with it, not just to cash in on the business, but to patronize black activists and shut them up.

So what is Kwanzaa? It’s the ultimate fraud.  It is a holiday created by a man responsible for violently torturing two women–and it has fascist goal of separating the races. If  Black people in America would like to come up with a holiday that celebrates their valuable contribution to America I would not object. Nor would I object to a celebration of the rich Western Africa culture that many of them lost when they were dragged from their homeland to become slaves.

It is hard to understand why anybody would want to follow a violent felon, in a made-up holiday that mistakes racism and segregation-ism for spirituality, and fiction for history.

My buddy Kenneth McClenton agrees that Kwanzaa is a racist holiday.  He spoke about it Tuesday night on his radio show “The Exceptional Conservative Show,” Click here to go to Tuesday’s show. The Kwanzaa discussion begins at the 59 minute mark. You can advance the player or if you aren’t a regular listener of Ken’s show I strongly recommend you listen to the entire thing because you will be hooked. Ken is truly exceptional.

Kwanzaa: A Fraud Holiday, Created With A Racist Goal, By A Criminal Madman

The Kwanzaa Hoax

By William J. Bennetta

“Anywhere we are, Us is.”

That looks like a line from an Amos ‘N Andy show. One can easily imagine that it served as the motto of the Mystic Knights of the Sea, and that it was recited by such characters as The Kingfish, Andy Brown and Algonquin J. Calhoun.

In fact, however, the line that I have quoted is the motto of a real organization — a real organization that was originally named United Slaves but now calls itself The Organization Us (or simply Us or US). It was created some 40 years ago, in Southern California, by a black racist who had begun life as Ron N. Everett but later had assumed the name Maulana Karenga.

Karenga — known chiefly as the inventor of Kwanzaa, a fake “African” holiday that he contrived in 1966 — has enjoyed a truly colorful career. He was a prominent black nationalist during the 1960s, when his organization was involved in various violent operations. 

He was sent to prison in 1971, after he and some of his pals tortured two women with a soldering iron and a vise, among other things. He emerged from prison in 1974, and a few years later — in a maneuver that even The Kingfish might have found difficult — he got himself installed as the chairman of the Department of Black Studies at California State University at Long Beach. CSULB wasn’t the only American university that got the racial willies during the 1970s and set up a tin-pot black-studies department, but CSULB (as far as I know) was the only one that hired a chairman who was a violent felon.

Karenga is still working at CSULB and is still running The Organization Us, and he and Us are still promoting his proprietary holiday, Kwanzaa. Prentice Hall is promoting it too, so The American Nation displays a picture of “an American family’s celebration of Kwanzaa” — but The American Nation doesn’t tell anything about Karenga, about his rules for carrying out a “celebration of Kwanzaa,” or about his make-believe Africanism. Let me supply some of the information that Prentice Hall has hidden:

Kwanzaa is supposed to be celebrated from 26 December through 1 January: It competes with Christmas and Chanukah while incorporating some echoes of both, e.g., gift-giving and a ceremony built around a seven-holed candle-holder that recalls Judaism’s seven-branched menorah.

Karenga has concocted some bits of lore, lingo, and mumbo-jumbo that are intended to make Kwanzaa look like something out of Africa instead of something from Los Angeles County, but his efforts have been feeble. If you scan The Official Kwanzaa Web Site [see note 1, below], you’ll read that the origins of Kwanzaa lie in “the first harvest celebrations of Africa,” which allegedly “are recorded in African history as far back as ancient Egypt and Nubia” — but there is no explanation of why any ancient Egyptians or Nubians might have held harvest festivals around the time of the winter solstice, and there is no identification of the crops that they harvested. Karenga’s formula for celebrating Kwanzaa requires the use of two ears of maize — but maize is a New World plant, and it wasn’t known at all in ancient Africa.

True believers can purchase ears of maize and other Kwanzaa equipment (e.g., candles and seven-holed candle-holders and straw mats) from the University of Sankore Press, a company in Los Angeles. This outfit evidently is controlled by Us and serves as Us’s marketing unit. It isn’t a university press, and its name is a mockery. The so-called University of Sankore was an aggregation of Islamic schools that flourished at Timbuktu in the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries. No University of Sankore exists today.

In Karenga’s Kwanzaa-lingo, ears of maize are called by the Swahili name “muhindi.” In fact, all the objects that Karenga has worked into Kwanzaa have names taken from Swahili, which The Official Kwanzaa Web site describes as “a Pan-African language” and “the most widely spoken African language.” The labeling of Swahili as a “Pan-African” language is rubbish. Swahili — a Bantu tongue that includes many words absorbed from Arabic, from Persian and from certain Indian languages — is spoken by some 50 million people (i.e., about 7% of Africa’s population). Most of those Swahili-speakers are concentrated in eastern Africa, in a region that includes Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and a strip of Zaire. The language which is used most widely in Africa is Arabic; and indeed, Swahili was originally written in Arabic script [note 2].

Kwanzaa is a hoax — a hoax built around fake history and pseudohistorical delusions. By attempting to dignify and promote Kwanzaa in The American Nation, Prentice Hall has joined in a flim-flam.

Here’s how long it will take Americans to pay off their Christmas debt

Published: Jan. 2, 2018  By KARIPAUL 

Many people blew their holiday budgets this year.

In the days after Christmas, Americans can be found taking down the tree, cleaning up wrapping paper, and perhaps surveying the financial wreckage of another holiday season.

Shoppers in the U.S. racked up an average of $1,054 of debt this Christmas season — an increase of 5% over last year, according to a survey from MagnifyMoney, a personal finance website. It found 44% of shoppers racked up more than $1,000 in holiday debt, and 5% accumulated more than $5,000 in debt.

Bouncing back from those purchases won’t come quickly. Only half of those surveyed expected to repay the debt within 3 months — others (29%) said they need more than five months to pay it off, often leading to interest on the credit card debt and growing balances. In fact, 10% of people who took on holiday debt said they would only be able make minimum payments on credit cards.

If the shopper spent $1,054, and paid a minimum payment of $25 each month, he or she would be paying down that balance until 2023. With an average interest rate of 15.9%, according to a MagnifyMoney analysis, fees on that debt could add up to $500. In August 2017, Americans hit the highest amount of credit card debt in U.S. history, at $1.021 trillion in outstanding revolving credit in June 2017.

If it seems like it will take you more than six months to pay off the debt incurred around the holidays, Robert Harrow, senior credit card analyst at Value Penguin said, consider transferring it to a low or no interest credit card.

“With a balance transfer card, consumers can focus on paying down the principal debt, and can shave off the time it will take to pay off their total debt by as much as 3 or 4 months,” he said.

The majority of Americans simply did not stick to their budgets, according to mobile banking startup Varo Money, Inc., with 74% saying they underestimated costs. Areas people go over budget on include last minute gifts (36%), regular holiday gifts (27%), food (27%), decorations (17%) and new holiday outfits (16%). The problem is particularly pronounced for millennials, said Colin Walsh, co-founder and CEO of Varo Money.

“Money is tight for everyone around the holidays and today’s millennials don’t approach banking and budgeting the way they used to,” he said. “Many millennials are “hands off” — checking their balance on a weekly basis with a general idea of how much money is coming in and going out. As a result, many will find themselves dipping into savings when they accidentally overspend over the holidays.”

But there is hope: Courtney Jespersen, consumer savings expert at personal finance site NerdWallet, said the work of Christmas shopping (and saving) isn’t necessarily finished after the holidays.

“Stay on top of your purchases,” she said. “Continue to watch prices of the items you bought even after you shopped. In some cases, you may be able to get a refund for the difference, depending on your card’s price protection feature. Getting some money back could alleviate the sting of blowing your Christmas budget.”

Happy Hellidays: The Deep Evil Roots Of Christmas

For many years Christians have been deceit into yoking up with the non believers by celebrating the traditions of men & the unfruitful works of darkness. This video explains how these two don’t go together reaffirming the scriptures.

Christmas was banned in America until 1820

Well, here’s something you most likely have never been taught in school or even in church.

Many of these same Christians who founded America actually banned the celebration of Christmas.

Yes, you read that right. Christmas was banned in America, not by any representative of the American Civil Liberties Union, but by Christians themselves.

It was actually against the law to observe Christmas, and people could be fined if they happened to take part in any celebration.

This stunning fact is just one of hundreds pointed out in “Shocked by the Bible: The Most Astonishing Facts You’ve Never Been Told” by Joe Kovacs, the executive news editor of WND.

“Despite the assumptions of many, Christmas was not a widespread holiday in much of colonial America,” says Kovacs. “Shocking as it sounds, followers of Jesus Christ in both America and England helped pass laws making it illegal to observe Christmas.”

And it wasn’t just Americans in the 1600s who had “issues” with Christmas.

On Dec. 25, 1789, the first Christmas under the brand-new Constitution, the United States Congress was actually in session, with no day off for any holiday. In fact, the U.S. did not even make Christmas a federal holiday until 1870.

In “Shocked by the Bible,” Kovacs explores the history of Christmas, and the concerns many of America’s founders had with the day.

Christmas banned in America … by Christians!

Who is Krampus? Explaining the horrific Christmas beast

The mythical Krampus is meant to whip children into being nice.

BY TANYA BASU

WHEN LISTENING TO the radio in December, it’s unlikely to hear holiday songs singing the praises of Krampus: a half-goat, half-demon, horrific beast who literally beats people into being nice and not naughty.

Krampus isn’t exactly the stuff of dreams: Bearing horns, dark hair, fangs, and a long tongue, the anti-St. Nicholas comes with a chain and bells that he lashes about, along with a bundle of birch sticks meant to swat naughty children. He then hauls the bad kids down to the underworld.

You better watch out . . .

In Catholicism, St. Nicholas is the patron saint of children. His saints day falls in early December, which helped strengthen his association with the Yuletide season. Many European cultures not only welcomed the kindly man as a figure of generosity and benevolence to reward the good, but they also feared his menacing counterparts who punished the bad. Parts of Germany and Austria dread the beastly Krampus, while other Germanic regions have Belsnickle and Knecht Ruprecht, black-bearded men who carry switches to beat children. France has Hans Trapp and Père Fouettard. (Some of these helpers, such as Zwarte Piet in The Netherlands have attracted recent controversy.)

Krampus’s name is derived from the German word krampen, meaning claw, and is said to be the son of Hel in Norse mythology. The legendary beast also shares characteristics with other scary, demonic creatures in Greek mythology, including satyrs and fauns.

The legend is part of a centuries-old Christmas tradition in Germany, where Christmas celebrations begin in early December. Krampus was created as a counterpart to kindly St. Nicholas, who rewarded children with sweets. Krampus, in contrast, would swat “wicked” children, stuff them in a sack, and take them away to his lair.

According to folklore, Krampus purportedly shows up in towns the night of December 5, known as Krampusnacht, or Krampus Night. The next day, December 6, is Nikolaustag, or St. Nicholas Day, when children look outside their door to see if the shoe or boot they’d left out the night before contains either presents (a reward for good behavior) or a rod (bad behavior). (For more on the history of St. Nicholas, see From St. Nicholas to Santa Claus.)

A more modern take on the tradition in Austria, Germany, Hungary, Slovenia, and the Czech Republic involves drunken men dressed as devils, who take over the streets for a Krampuslauf—a Krampus Run of sorts, when people are chased through the streets by the “devils.”

Why scare children with a demonic, pagan monster? 

Maybe it’s a way for humans to get in touch with their animalistic side. Such impulses may be about assuming “a dual personality,” according to António Carneiro, who spoke to National Geographicmagazine about revitalized pagan traditions. The person dressed as the beast “becomes mysterious,” he said.

Krampus is coming to town

Krampus’s frightening presence was suppressed for many years—the Catholic Church forbade the raucous celebrations, and fascists in World War II Europe found Krampus despicable because it was considered a creation of the Social Democrats.

But Krampus has been having a resurgance over the past few years, thanks partly to a “bah, humbug” attitude in pop culture, with people searching for ways to celebrate the yuletide season in non-traditional ways. In the United States, people are embracing the dark side of Christmas with Krampus movies, special “Krampus” television episodes. They’re throwing Krampus parties, attending local Krampusnachts (in cities like Washington, D.C. and New Orleans), and running in Krampus-themed races. (Read “How Krampus, the Christmas ‘Devil,’ Became Cool.”)

For its part, Austria is attempting to commercialize the harsh persona of Krampus by selling chocolates, figurines, and collectible horns. There are already complaints that Krampus is becoming too commercialized and losing his edge because of his newfound popularity.

Merry—or not-so-merry—Krampus! 

This beast with Germanic roots is St. Nicholas’s other half and scares children into being nice, not naughty.

This is one of the truths about Christmas! 

This is how Christmas was celebrated…and it is actually still celebrated in this WAY IN EUROPE!! 

The evil creature is called Krampus.. 

Don’t believe me? Look it up! 

I don’t like showing pictures like this…But the Truth must be shown! 

IT IS THIS THAT THE NAME ‘J-SUS’ IS ATTACHED TO AND CALLED HOLY!! 

THE ORIGINS of the festival of Christmas was created to celebrate pagan gods….

Not YAHUAH ELOHIYM of Abraham Isaac and Jacob, 

PAGAN GODS!!! 

It is recorded in history that pagan gods were recorded to have been born on this day!!! 

The tradition of a Christmas tree…pagan…in fact Jeremiah 10 tells you don’t put a tree in your house and don’t decorate it! 

People say…but I don’t worship the tree….well…why do you put gifts under it?! 

People say…YAH knows my heart that’s all that matters…well YAH knows what is in your heart, you know it’s pagan…what does that say? 

If YAHUAH ELOHIYM told you don’t put up a tree in your house and decorate it… knowing this…Will you still celebrate it?! 

Will you still put a tree in your house and decorate it if YAHUAH ELOHIYM Almighty said Don’t Do It?!

Will you still put a tree in your house and decorate it if YAHUAH ELOHIYM Almighty said Don’t Do It?!

Circe (Church)–Daughter of the Sun

As our Father allows me to look into His wisdom, I marvel at His ways, which are so far above me that only His RUACH HA’QODESH (Holy Spirit) can reveal them in ways I can bear. He raises me up on wings that I might be able to grasp a larger understanding. In the natural, sometimes a high place allows one to see what one could not see in the valley. The high places that our Father YAHUAH brings one to allows one to see the flow of time and peoples as one continuous big picture. 

All of a sudden the end, the beginning, and the flow in between becomes one wonderful thought, a gem with it’s many facets seen together with the light of understanding shining brilliantly dazzling my spiritual senses. Oh, what childlike joy when we are allowed to enter into the treasure house of the wisdom of our Father YAHUAH.

One of these wonderful gems is the story of natural Yashar’el (Israel) and her daughters, Sodom, Samaria, etc. Theologians have spent much time covering up the wonderful truths contained in the Old Testament. Some denominations have completely severed the Old Testament from Christian foundational teachings. 

Others have not been so bold, but when one looks at the yellow marked pages of the Scriptures of their church membership, it is obvious that the three quarters of the Scriptures called, “Old,” has taken a very distant second place. And so we must repeat the errors of those who have gone before, ever learning but never coming to the knowledge of the Truth. 

Our Father YAHUAH wrote a wonderful story upon the backs of a people called Yashar’el (Israel). Had we been taught the true story of Yashar’el (Israel), and had church history not been so whitewashed by church leaders, the knowledge I am about to share would have been seen ages ago. 

But the shepherds of our Father’s sheep have always been about the business of fleecing, robbing, and killing. We have been in darkness, but everything done in darkness will one day come to the light. Let there be Light.

What I am about to share, is not the story of Yashar’el (Israel), the shadow, but the very substance of whom Yashar’el (Israel) is the shadow of. This is a true story of a woman called “Church.” She calls herself the “bride of Christ.” 

Beneath this main title come many others names of honor such as Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox, Russian Orthodox, Protestant, Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Charismatic, Pentecostal, Mormon, Reformed, Brethren, Quaker, Kingdom, Sonship, the Little Flock, etc., etc.. Over the last two thousand years, this woman called “Church” has taken on many thousands of different names. 

There is much in a name, especially when one sees that the affairs of the peoples of this world are governed by an Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent Creator who lets nothing slip through His fingers. Let us look at a name. . . a name the world is ever so familiar with. 

She is a woman who has attempted to conquer the world by whatever means she could find at her disposal, and she did it all to the glory of her God. 

Let us look at the name of this woman called “Church.”

For those of you who know me, or have listened to some of my tapes, you know I have spent hundreds of hours combing through many books written two to three hundred years ago. It seems our Father loosed much knowledge at that time. Much of this knowledge was in “ore” stage. It needed to be refined to be any good for civilization. This woman called “Church” took much of this knowledge and hid it away. She knew that this stuff was dangerous, dangerous for her, that is.

One of the books that appeared in this era, was the beginning of a household institution called “Webster’s Dictionary.” It made it’s first appearance in 1828. Since then, it has gone through many editions, revisions, and forms. But there is something about that original Webster’s that makes it easy to go through a door to behold something that matches to the horror and amazement Yechezq’el (Ezekiel) experienced when he dug his hole into the Temple wall, and perhaps equals the astonishment Yahuchanon (John) must have felt when he beheld that “woman.” Under the heading of “church” in the original 1828 Webster’s Dictionary, we find the following:

“Church, n. [Sax. Circe, circ or cyric; Scots, kirk, which retains the Saxon pronunciation; D. Kerk; G. Kirche; Se. Kyrchia; Dan. Kirke; Gr. Kuriokon, a temple of God, from kuriakos, pertaining to a Lord, or to our Lord Jesus Christ, from kurios, a Lord; Russ. Tzerkou.] .

1 A house consecrated to the worship of God, among christians; the Lord’s house. This seems to be the original meaning of the word. The Greek ekklesia, from ekkalew, to call out or call together, denotes an assembly or collection. But kuriakos, kuriakon, are from kurios, Lord, a term applied by the early christians to Jesus Christ; and the house in which they worshipped was named from that title. So kuriaka signifies church goods, bona ecclesiastica; kuriakh, sc hmera, the Lord’s day, dies dominica. 

2. The collective body of christians, or of those who profess to believe in Christ, and acknowledge him to be the Savior of mankind. In this sense, the church is sometimes the Catholic or Universal Church. Johnson Enclyce. 

3. A particular number of christians, united under one form of ecclesiastical government, in one creed, and using the same ritual or ceremonies; as the English church; the Gallican church; the Presbyterian church; the Romish church; the Greek church.”

The entry for “church” in this dictionary continues through 9 entries, but we have enough here to write a book. I am going to try to keep this in an article size, perhaps continuing into the next issue of “Dew.” For those of you who want more after reading this article, write for the tape entitled “The origin of the word ‘church’.

Those of you who have been in “church” or have “gone to church” for any length of time have probably heard that the origin of the word “church” is from the Greek word ekklasia written in English ecclesia which would translate into English as called out, an assembly, or collection. 

This may be the definition of the word ecclesia, but the English word “church” does not come from this Greek word. Webster says the English word “church” comes from the Greek word kuriakon meaning “the Lord’s” or “the Lord’s house or belonging”. 

Sounds plausible, doesn’t it? 

This is what the seminary students are taught when they enter into the halls or walls of christendom as they study to become “heads of the churches.” To most of you, this explanation would probably suffice, but I am a nosy type, and I like to dig. Looking into Young’s Concordance, I discovered this word kuriakon is not in the Greek text of our Bibles. 

Strange that the Creator of the Universe would name his body on earth kuriakon and then not use the word in His Holy Word. Something did not smell right, know what I mean?

I am in touch with many people who spend much time doing word studies, and play around with what has been called “etymology”, that is the study of word origins. I also read much material from different authors who have traced many of our “church” words to pagan mythology, especially Greek, Roman, Babylonian, and German or Teutonic mythology. 

Most of you are not aware of the fact that English is really a part of the German language. As a matter of fact, about 90% of the words in the King James Bible are German in origin. 

The English peoples are also called Anglo-Saxons. The Webster’s Dictionary says under Anglo-Saxon “A member of the nation created by the consolidation of Low German tribes that invaded England in the 5th and 6th centuries, together with native and Danish elements, which continued as the ruling power of England until the Norman Conquest.” Their language dominated England. Even the name England reflects this. I point this out so that you are aware of how German or Norse mythology has much to do with many of our English words.

Now Webster says that the root of this word “church” is a Saxon word “circe, or circ, or cyric.” 

Those of you who are versed in Greek mythology or in the Greek language should begin to be raising your eyebrows. 

This information is so embarrassing that Webster did what he could to hide this in his first edition, but later editions made it easy to uncover. 

In the Original Webster’s under the word “circ” are the simple words “see circus.” Who says our Father doesn’t have a sense of humor? 

But it gets more interesting than that! The first entry as to the etymological meaning and origin of the church is “circe.” Now for those who are versed in Greek, this connection is so obvious and embarrassing that Webster did not put this noun in his dictionary, but he did put the adjective which is “Circean” I cannot prove it, but I think this omission was intentional. 

Under “Circean” we find the following definition: “adjective; Pertaining to Circe, the fabled daughter of Sol and Perseis, who was supposed to possess great knowledge of magic and venomous herbs, by which she was able to charm and fascinate.” 

Later editions of Webster’s finally had the courage to enter the noun under which we find more information: “Circe noun [L., fr. Gr. Kirke.] In the Odyssey, an island sorceress who turned her victims by magic into beasts but was thwarted by Odysseus with the herb moly given him by Hermes-Circean, circaean adj..”

A couple of years ago Dr. Ernest Martin sent me a photocopy of an old book written in England with a cover page that went as follows: “The MYTH OF KIRKE: Including the visit of Odysseus to the Shades. An Homerik Study by Robert Brown, Jun., F.S.A..” It had a quote from the famous Milton on the title page that read, “Who knows not Circe, The daughter of the Sun?” 

It appears at the present time few people know her for who she really is. Dr. Martin opened my eyes and since then I have spent much time gathering the pieces to reveal Circe, Church, the daughter of the Sun, who mixes venomous herbs in “a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of the fornication of the earth.”

I will leave the readers here to ponder, pray, and marvel. Read Chizayon (Revelation) 17 and 18. 

Trace how the Greek Kirke became Circe in the Anglo-Saxon, which became Chirche in Church Latin who finally manifested in full glory as Church, daughter of the Sun, a woman who had the power to turn men into animals.
