@ The Basis of the Ezra Bible. Looeamong, the false God, now changed his
name and falsely called himself Christ, which is the Ahamic word for
knowledge. And he raised up tribes of mortal warriors, who called
themselves Christians, who are warriors to this day. ... The age of the
Ezra Bible is not, therefore, from the time of Moses, but from the time
of Ezra, 2344 years B.K. http://homepages.go.com/~newviews/ezra.html

# Doomsday cult seeks to soften image. YOKOHAMA, Japan (AP) - Since leaving
prison a month ago, Fumihiro Joyu shows a very different image from that
of the strident spokesman he once was for the murderous Aum cult. Trading
his religious garb for suit & tie, Joyu and other cultists are spinning
tales of apology, change and separation from the guru they once worshipped
as a living god. So far, they are generating more fear than sympathy. See

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soap-boxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds—is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
