Occupy Portland Dances Around Golden Calf...God Help Us

Video: Occupy Portland Dances Around Golden Calf on May Day 2013

On May 1, in Portland, OR, an Occupy group decided to dress in Egyptian garb and dance around a golden calf. They are protesting big corporations like are seen on pieces of paper surrounding the float. I see Chevron and Shell oil...Nike, Wal-Mart and Fox News just to name a few.

I have to ask...do any of these idiots own a car? If not, then they either use a taxi or public transportation...oil is needed. I wonder how many plastic products they own...again, oil is needed for those. And where do they shop if not at Wal-Mart?

Everything they own is because of capitalism. They would have nothing if not for those folks who worked their butts off to provide a service to the American people. That is called CAPITALISM!

Now, dancing around this golden thing...God was ready to destroy the children of Israel when Moses came down from the mountain with the Ten Commandments and found all of them dancing around the damnable thing. In fact, even Moses was so angry that he threw the tablets God had given to him and broke them. He had to go back to God and ask for another set. He also asked God not to destroy the people and God listened.

This group better hope someone out there is praying for them. God is not happy right now. This is why the cup of wrath will be dumped out on His children. Because of crap like this. Those who love Him and follow His ways? They won't be harmed. All the rest? Good luck and good riddance!

This is PARODY. It is a direct critique of the greed and over consumption of this nation, hence all of the corporate logos on the Wallstreet bull. It is mocking YOU, and all hypocrites who hold the bible in one hand, and your mammon in the other. We stand witness and testify to TRUTH. The new commandments are coming and they shall be economic rights!

There are no "NEW" Commandments...They do not mock me...they mock God and He won't be mocked. Parody? Well, maybe God will see it that way for them...but don't hold your breath. You know...on second thought...please, hold your breath.

I disagree. It may have been intended to be a parody but the Occupy movement is a movement that is absolutely self loving. Their only goal is their own agenda. The Biblical Golden Calf was not meant to be a separate deity from the God the people were following. It was meant to be a representative of that god, an imagine of their god so that the people could worship it. In effect it too was a parody of the god that led them out of bondage. In trying to worship something larger than themselves they fell into worshiping their own needs, their own agenda. Notice how so many of them are so quick to claim that Christ is with the 99%. Doesn't that sound a bit absolutist and extremely arrogant and self serving to claim whose side Christ may be on? And still they call themselves the 99% despite the fact that they do not represent nearly as many people as they claim so not only do they claim the support of the divine they do so from a position of deception.


There is no new commandment. But there have been many fool in history who justify their own moral failings by looking for legal loopholes in the bible. Somethings gad is clearly for and against, but economics just is not one of them. Christ had no problem having dinner with Tax collectors and prostitutes and wise men and political leaders. He spoke of a heavenly world and of heavenly obligations but he never once told anyone that a particular job they were engaged in was bad. And lets assume for a moment that there really is a 99%. Well, Christ spoke of the narrow way, of keeping your eyes on heaven and the occupy movement has far more secular atheists than Christians. He would have walked amongst them, but it is very doubtful he would have supported them.

BRAVO, toryshane...B.R.A.V.O. !!!

God is the consciousness of all living things. It is the universe. The trumpets all already sounding, but those who wait for their chariot will miss it. For those who have ears to hear let them hear . . . heaven is a place to be created on earth through love and compassion. You can not serve both Love and mammon. Love is absolutist in the sense that it makes no room for greed, or violence. You neither know the name of God or speak it. It is views such as these that make a mockery of love.

Occuupy said...

Christ is not a man. Christ is an archetype of consciousness. This consciousness is the consciousness of love and compassion. But you do not see the forest for the trees. Jesus was a exemplary of this archetype, but he is not the only one. It was his wish for all humankind to be like him. Jesus lived as a houseless nomad, and he wished to end division among people, and to fill the hearts of the greedy with love and compassion. He gave everything up, including his life so that others could see how to treat one another. The Occupy movement is not a singular group, it is the birth of new consciousness one that believes that anyone who calls them selves Christian and yet denies humanity love and compassion, is not in fact a Christian at all. Those who speak of Jesus in any other fashion are ignorant of his teachings. Jesus DID advocate giving people food, shelter, and healthcare. Where exactly in your line of logic does Jesus not support the love of others? Tell me how you have come to the conclusion.

The Conservative Wife said...

You are the one who is showing their ignorance concerning the Bible and Jesus. It isn't about not loving others...it is about not loving the things they do. Jesus is the word of God, that word became flesh (a man) and walked among us. That's why He is called the living word. Jesus and God love all of us...but not the things we do. Hence the reason God destroyed Sodom and Gammorah and why Jesus spoke against the Pharisees and Sadducees, overturning their tables in teh temple and running them out with a cat of nine tails. Sometimes love involves tough love. You have to be firm in your convictions just as Jesus was/is. And can you please tell me what my "mammon is? You certainly know so much.

No. Sorry but either Christ was exactly who he claimed to be or he was a liar. If he was not a liar then he was not just an archetype or an exemplar and if he was a liar then he could not be an exemplar of anything that requires honesty and truth.

"Where exactly in your line of logic does Jesus not support the love of others? Tell me how you have come to the conclusion."

Considering that I never said this I have nothing to defend. But Christ was pretty clear about sin, about adultery, about theft, about comporting yourself in a certain manner, about keeping your focus on heaven none of which are hallmarks of the Occupy movement. Like I said he would have happily had dinner with them, talked with them, and yes loved them but there is very little about the movement that he would actually be a supporter of. Dancing around a golden calf would not be high on his list of positive actions, trespassing was not big on Christs list of virtues, violence certainly was not his way. And of course atheism which represents the majority of Occupy is not exactly what Christ had in mind.

As for the birth of a new consciousness. Go back to the 1960's. The age of Aquarius called and they want their mantra back.

Tory Quinton said...

Do you have a weekly subscription to the Llewelyn press? Your new age drivel was old in the 1970's and is almost silly today.

The Conservative Wife said...

You're smoking a little too much dope, there occuupy...set the pipe down and slowly back away...

The people on this page seem to have a negative knee jerk reaction regarding both Occupy and the political statements they seek to make. Not only that, but instead of engaging in an intellectual debate about the issues people resort to personal negative attacks. The term Religious conservative has become synonymous with fundamentalist. Occupy is simply the banner with which thousands of people around the world are using to launch a movement of economic justice. They have not come to destroy faith, but to bring the humanitarian ideals outlined in so many faiths to fruition. We wish it to create a more just society and to critique the elite and their greed. How is this not a message for any Christian? Mammon is a false object of worship. When religion itself becomes the object of worship (as it has for many in this country) it is mammon. I am very familiar with the Bible, and while you seem to do a lot of reading of it, perhaps you should learn how to engage in some critical thinking exercises?

I don't drink or do drugs and I am a doctoral student. Please check your ignorance before you speak.

Occuupy said...

The only thing that is silly are people who in 2013 are still taking a fundamentalist worldview on documents thousand of years old. The world is progressing around you, but in your concealed bubble you do not see it.

The Conservative Wife said...

Then why are you even here, occuupig? You are just like all the other liberal idiots. You come on to a page that is CLEARLY conservative and bitch and moan about everything. If you don't like it, then stay on your own sites. It isn't a knee jerk reaction, it is because of the facts regarding the so called occupy movement. It is a deranged, violent and totally leadership lacking group. And, like all liberals, you always have to proclaim how smart you are by telling the world about your "education." If you were indeed so smart, you wouldn't have to declare it...the world would see it. You are an idiot and as such you shall be treated. No get the hell off this page!

God is not happy right now? Are you his Demi-goddess who is just narcissistic enough to think YOU know what God is feeling? Yes those occupiers include firemen, teachers and our vets! Yes they own cars! Do you own a brain??

Stepford Neighbors said...

Wow super Christian words, Ms Conservative. Best remove the Gid talk from your posts, lest someone associates ugly hatred with your ever so Christian tongue.

The Conservative Wife said...

Well first of all, I would like to address your "handle", stepford neighbor. That alone tells me all I need to know about your ability to think for yourself. As a "stepford" you think collectively with all the other obamazombies. Not a clear rational thought to be had on your own, only what you are told to believe by the collective. Secondly, a Demi goddess? Really? I can say that God has feelings and know to a certain extent what those feelings are because I read my bible. There is a cup of wrath waiting to be dumped. Do you think He dumps it because He is happy? Of course God has feelings and emotions. It is written. He is a God of love but He also hates. Not us per se, but the things we as humans do. Don't think He hates? Then I suggest you go find a bible somewhere and actually read it...not just a verse here and a verse there to fit whatever agenda the collective has going on. God hated Esau in the womb. Why? Because of what Esau had done in the first earth age. I see you are trying to make the occupy collective into something they are not. They are nothing more than a group of idiot cockroaches running around doing and protesting what they are told. There is no organization and no honor. Just a bunch of mindless losers getting together to defecate in the street and tear things up. As for your other response, well, my Christian tongue is just getting started and you and those of your ilk will not silence it. If you think Christians are supposed to be meek and mild then I guess you've never met a true Christian because we are on fire for the Lord. And that fire includes calling out bullshit when it presents itself. Since you have presented yourself, I am calling you out. I suggest you no longer try to pick a fight where the obvious outcome is you slinking back to your little dark corner of the basement to sulk. People like you don't win in the end. I know, I have read the back of the book.
