Jesus Revolution – How God Transformed an Unlikely Generation and How He Can Do It Again by Greg Laurie, Ellen Vaughn- another look at this story is here - https://notesaboutfilms.blogspot.com/2023/04/71-out-of-100-for-jesus-revolution.html

This is an attempt to look at that Jesus Revolution versus the New One, focused on the Orange Jesus aka The Confidence Man and an absolute calamity

8 out of 10

 

 

However interesting this narrative could be, there are some tragic undertones, at least for the undersigned, who is not religious – in fact, if we are to quote the Magister Ludi Kingsley Amis, he said ‘it is not just that I do not believe in him, I hate him’ or words to that effect http://realini.blogspot.com/2022/12/memoirs-by-kingsley-amis-author-of-take.html this does not apply to me, but I like the joke

 

If you are interested in what I have to say about the Jesus Revolution, though I do not see why, then the conclusion is this – it is not exhilarating, but somewhat amusing and sad to find what was happening in parts of America, when we had communism in our lands, the Soviets at the door, and shortages of all kinds

But that would be all there is of interest – one reader was keen to find about this Jesus Revolution, but was not so taken aback, when he found about it, only the bias works, I see the protagonists of this Mass Movement as the ones who vote in drones with this New, Orange Jesus, who might take us all by storm, this time, next year

 

So, you see I am already descending into a dark place, for the supporters of the Orange Jesus, the lines to come will be nothing short of insulting, outrageous, vile and we could go on, because I see as the result of that ‘Revolution’, the catastrophe that has been the most powerful man in the world, for four years

Yes, these are not the only admirers, voters that the Orange Devil has, after all, there are over seventy million ready to go to the polls and show their support, and do that again, after he has shown what he is about, all the lying, cheating, the attack on Congress on January 6, 2021, which they see as a good thing

 

It is not as simple as eliminate this buffoon, and pick Biden, that is clear, and Joe Biden has his own, sometimes serious flaws, the main one being his age, the fact that he is losing some of the grip and he stayed on, just like his opponent, Orange Jesus, when he should have passed the baton, and allowed the likes of Gavin Newsom to compete in primaries and then select a successor with more chances to beat the calamity

But Biden is a demi God, nay an absolute god, when compared with the diabolical, narcissistic, disgusting foe, who thinks of himself only, brags about his ‘big brain, that he is a very stable genius’ and all that garbage he peddles

 

This is the Ultimate Mobster, The Confidence Man http://realini.blogspot.com/2023/09/confidence-man-making-of-donald-trump.html and the evangelicals, very religious embrace him, with arguments like ‘the ways of God are unknown, he will bring to fruition the Jesus Revolution’…come on, the republican leaders in Congress called him Orange Jesus, what more do we need, as confirmation that this is a cult

The GOP used to be strong on defense, pushing against the enemies of the USA, but now, they just follow this idiot, who loves dictators (it is not speculation, the fool talked and bragged about the love letters from Kim of North Korea, spoke in Helsinki about how he believes Putin, over the American intelligence agencies) and is to be trusted when he says he will end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours, with a massive defeat and sellout

 

This is because he will ask Putin what he wants and give it to him, when a Iago http://realini.blogspot.com/2014/02/othello.html is praising the narcissist, he enters the good books and the admiration for that monster and others are now common knowledge, not subject to my interpretation, Orange Jesus spoke so much about this and other subjects, and he wants to be a dictator, he said so

The adepts of that, seventies Jesus Revolution have other aspirations, and let us be more decent and say that some of them (maybe most, or the overwhelming majority) have honest, good intentions and say that the mysterious ways of God have brought forward this sinner (he lies, cheats, disrespected women, on tape, he is rude, the list is too long) and he will do the work of God or Jesus and has been active on that

 

They love the Supreme Justices brough by this Orange Jesus to the limelight (which I see as crazy, a couple of them literally) who will act against abortion – they already did – and broadly speaking, will affect the long-term future in a manner that the hippies of the seventies might prefer, for the believers, sex is meant for procreation, albeit the hippies were famous for ‘make love, not war, the flower power’

And the characters involved in the seventies Jesus Revolution were different from other groups, in that they had this novel, outré, original perspective, they were not the stuffy, conservative, Inquisition loving old retrogrades, so why am I insulting them, and putting them all in the same basket?

 

Because I can, and I think statistics back this up – on the side, we could say that ‘there are lies, blatant lies (OJ has lied a myriad times) and statistics – the religious, exuberant, devoted, evangelical, Jesus-loving vote with this Orange Jesus, that will sell us to the Russians (we live in a place that was behind the Iron Curtain, on the  wrong side, and we will fall into the lap of Putin again, thrown by this horrendous Orange Jesus – I insist on repeating Orange Jesus ad nauseam, to make a point – to the wolves…

 

Now for my standard closing with a question, and invitation – maybe you have a good idea on how we could make more than a million dollars with this http://realini.blogspot.com/2022/02/unique-in-world.html?q=unique+in+the+world   – as it is, this is a unique technique, which we could promote, sell, open the Oscars show with or something and then make lots of money together, if you have the how, I have the product, I just do not know how to get the befits from it, other than the exercise per se

 

As for my role in the Revolution that killed Ceausescu, a smaller Mao, there it is http://realini.blogspot.com/2022/03/realini-in-newsweek-participant-in.html

Some favorite quotes from To The Heritage and other works

‘Fiction is infinitely preferable to real life...As long as you avoid the books of Kafka or Beckett, the everlasting plot of fiction has fewer futile experiences than the careless plot of reality...Fiction's people are fuller, deeper, cleverer, more moving than those in real life…Its actions are more intricate, illuminating, noble, profound…There are many more dramas, climaxes, romantic fulfillment, twists, turns, gratified resolutions…Unlike reality, all of this you can experience without leaving the house or even getting out of bed…What's more, books are a form of intelligent human greatness, as stories are a higher order of sense…As random life is to destiny, so stories are to great authors, who provided us with some of the highest pleasures and the most wonderful mystifications we can find…Few stories are greater than Anna Karenina, that wise epic by an often foolish author…’

‚Parturiunt montes, nascetur ridiculus mus’

“From Monty Python - The Meaning of Life...Well, it's nothing very special...Try and be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and harmony with people of all creeds and nations.”
