Re: READER JC: STAMPEDE IN MECCA & GOD NAME LEO
http://thebiblefraud.com/
"How well we know what a profitable superstition this fable of Christ has been for us." Pope Leo X (1513-1531)
Hello Rayelan,
Tony Bushby is the author of that article that WAS on the Nexus website. He wrote "The Bible Fraud" which had the information about Jesus' twin brother that he researched for twelve years in the dusty vaults of the Mideast. His new book is "The Secret in the Bible". I have read both books twice. They are the most astounding books I have ever read. Any discussion about religion or God now has me thinking about this information to the point that all the old arguments seem out of date and lacking in real insight. Don't worry about shaking any faith in God or the Bible. They will only enhance it!
If I can find the article from Nexus that I once saved I can send it to you. It seems to have disappeared from their website so I would be wary of putting it up on the net. Maybe you can ask them why they took it down.
I highly recommend you get these books and read them.
The story of Jesus was an intentional combining of two brothers. One, Rabbi Jesus Cunobeline, was the "loving", more spiritual and scholarly one. The other, Judas Khrestus, was the more vengeful, militaristic one.
Here is the a newsletter from the publisher of the books. Check out the websites for more info.
Thank you very much for my favorite web site for any years.
John

Hello John,
Yes, they have finally arrived! They are being unloaded at I write
this. Tony Bushby's second book *The Secret in the Bible* has rolled
off the presses and has just been delivered to us. Now begins the
task of fulfilling your orders and shipping them out to you as fast
as possible. As promised, they will be shipped airfreight. However,
it will still be a few more days before it's at your door
depending on where you live.
I have taken aside the three copies from the first box that has
entered our store. They will be despatched pronto to our three
winners of our recent "How My Life Changed" contest...
* Kristine Ingram from USA
* Vondell Smoak from Oregon, USA
* Michael Symonds from Tasmania, Australia
Congratulations to these three! I know it was difficult for the
judges to differentiate between so many excellent entries and I
shall publish some of the stories for you over the coming issues of
Joshua's Journal.
So in this issue, we will start with Kistine's story.
In this issue, you will find a new category entitled "Interesting
Links". There you will find links to other sites which have
interesting articles or stories or whatever which you should find
interesting. I suppose that's why it's called what it is!
Now on with this issue....
********************************
1) LITERATURE IS FREEDOM
Almost a month ago during the Frankfurt Book Fair, the Association
of German Publishers and Booksellers awarded the Friedenspreis des
Deutschen Buchhandels (the Peace Prize of the German Book Trade) to
American author Susan Sontag. Her acceptance speech makes
interesting reading ..
"To speak in the Paulskirche, before this audience, to receive the
prize awarded in the last fifty-three years by the German Book Trade
to so many writers, thinkers, and exemplary public figures whom I
admire - to speak in this history-charged place and on this occasion,
is a humbling and inspiring experience. I can only the more regret
the deliberate absence of the American ambassador, Mr. Daniel Coats,
whose immediate refusal, in June, of the invitation from the
Booksellers Association, when this year's Friedenspreis was
announced, to attend our gathering here today, shows he is more
interested in affirming the ideological stance and the rancorous
reactiveness of the Bush administration than he is, by fulfilling a
normal diplomatic duty, in representing the interests and reputation
of his - and my - country."

amazing is that you can control the azimuth, elevation and zoom from
your own computer!

4) KRISTINE'S STORY
Kristine Ingram is one of our three winners of "How My Life Changed
After Reading The Bible Fraud" contest. Here is her story...
"Before The Bible Fraud, I was me, a born and bred New Englander as
Protestant as so many New Englanders before me. After The Bible
Fraud, I struggle with that illusion.
You see, my mother and her brother always told us, my cousins and
me, that the de Waltoff family was lost to us. They were a bunch of
losers who had disowned my grandfather for reasons obscure to me. We
should never seek them out. However, I did seek out the name de
Waltoff on the Internet looking for my uncle's son's website about
his art show. I never expected to find anyone else with the name, but
find them I did. I found distant cousins as incredulous to know me as
I to know them and, shock to us all, my de Waltoff family was Jewish,
of Lithuanian (Russian) descent. My whole Protestant Lutheran-
Congregational self image burst.
Then my new found ninety-year-old cousin told me that my long lost
great-grandfather was infamous for finding a scroll in the Holy Land
that had debunked the New Testament. I giggled and thought our being
of Jewish descent was enough of a surprise, but to be related to a
man who helped debunk the Bible was too much.
So I hit the Internet again and raised The Bible Fraud site and, lo
and behold, there was Dayve Boris de Waltoff and his discovery of the
Safed or Mehgheehlla Scroll in 1882 in black and white on page 31.
My great-grandfather who I never knew existed ten months ago is now
on my mind frequently. I wonder at the irony that if my trusted
mother and uncle could conspire with other relatives to hide our
Jewish background, could not the church conspire to hide other
fundamentals from us all.
My mother died this summer and I will never be able to ask her why
she did as she did. But I can imagine why the church must do as it
does... and so I am not just me, another wasp from New England. I
have the blood of the Jewish-Brooklyn-physician-who-found-the-scroll-
that-debunks-the-Bible flowing in my veins. If nothing else, my
background is not boring anymore!"
Congratulations once again Kristine and keep a lookout for your
special copy of *The Secret in the Bible* in the mail.
