A ‘Dark Night’ for Our Society…
Posted by Pastor Kurt | Filed under My Free Time, Randomness, The Moral Decline, Video
* NOTE: In this post I refer to Heath Ledger’s death as a suicide. The official report of his death is accident, resulting from the abuse of prescription medications.
This week, all the buzz has been about the new Batman movie ‘Dark Night’. The new Batman movie has been described as dark and disturbing because of the character ‘The Joker’ played by Heath Ledger which is portrayed as a psychopath who kills without regard or reason. Including impaling a pencil through a person’s head, surgically implanting a bomb in a man, lighting fire to a stack of money tied up to a man and slicing open people’s faces
The ‘Dark Night’ movie has been made more interesting because of the actor Heath Ledger. Many movie goers are watching this film with morbid interest knowing that Heath Ledger committed suicide shortly after he finished filming the Batman movie. Some have said that Heath Ledger’s character, the Joker was such a dark and demented character, that it played a significant role in Heath Ledger’s death.
Once again the entertainment crowd has placed the subject of suicide to the frontage of the societal spectrum. Heath Ledger will probably become a folk hero similar to Elvis Presley and James Dean. The famous picture “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” will now have Mr. Ledger sitting next to Marilyn Monroe.
What is most unbelievable is that Heath Ledger just might win an Academy Award for his performance. That would be typical of our society, honoring a person who killed himself. Our young people will see the coolness of Heath Ledger’s ‘Joker’, painting their faces to look like the character, thinking about how awesome it was for Heath to go out on top. There is nothing cool about killing yourself, God has given us the gift of life and we do not appreciate it. Many of our young people have been tricked into believing that death is better than life.
Our world has become a world without hope a world that thrives off of darkness. Death is interesting, death makes money. The more disturbing a movie is, the more tickets it sells. Good is bad and bad is good.

A Course In Miracles - Just Another Cult…
Posted by Pastor Kurt | Filed under Humor Helps, Kingdom of the Cults, My Free Time, The Moral Decline, Video, Web Clips
Is ‘A Course In Miracles’ a cult? Lets see the evidence.
- In ‘A Course In Miracles’ their is no world its all in your imagination.
- In ‘A Course In Miracles’ their is no death its all in your imagination.
- In ‘A Course In Miracles’ sin is not real.
- In ‘A Course In Miracles’ the pain and guilt you have is something you have made up in your mind.
- In ‘A Course In Miracles’ God is not a person, but a eternal creating energy.
- In ‘A Course In Miracles’ you are in complete control of your destiny and purpose.
- In ‘A Course In Miracles’ you are perfect and without defect.
This is just another new age cult. The same rhetoric with a new spin. The same old shanty with a fresh coat of paint. In 2008 as a Christian you better be able to separate truth from error.
…because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12
