THE SERMON IN THE VALLEY, 6 JUNE 2401


    Brothers and Sisters, we are gathered here today to consider embarking on a new adventure, one that is fraught with danger and possible pain, even death; but an adventure in righteousness, which has the sanction of Almighty God! But before we decide whether to follow the straight and narrow path to glory, we should see what has brought us to this bifurcation, this parting of the ways.
    As you know, our all-knowing government leaders, our World-Government leaders, a hundred years ago this very day, put into effect a decision they had made a decade earlier. God, in his almighty justice, had begun to punish the sinners of the earth by inflicting upon them a renewal of the cycle of ice ages.  Already, from about 2100 onward, the glaciers began to reform and to cover the northern and even the southern areas of the Earth, going within a century deep into Canada, Scandinavia, Siberia, Alaska, and even beginning in Tierra del Fuego and Patagonia, not to mention the Falkland Islands. Ocean currents were changing; animal and plant life was abandoning the upper latitudes; temperatures dropped by a calamitous 5 degrees in a century. But still our secular leaders, and the leaders of our major religions, refused to see in this new plague a punishment for the godlessness of the world's nations. Instead, they got together and tried to sidestep Almighty God's plans by building the first of a projected five sinful space stations, above the azure sky of Earth. Future One they called it.  Future One!  It was blessed by an assemblage of the leaders of the 20 most populous religions! Blessed? No, rather cursed! What blasphemy! (Blasphemy, yes! Tell it to them, Brother!) And today the first manned exploration of the galaxy has been undertaken, with the goal of colonizing planets we have never seen, and of establishing contact with intelligent species that neither the Bible nor any other fundamental book of religion mentions.
    You remember the events of that cruel ungodly day a century ago, in 2301, a day the history books tell us ushered in the greatest era in human history. (Yes, we do, Brother!) We have all been forced to learn those events that have cloaked the human race in ignominy ever since, as though we should be proud of them! The first massive destruction of God's creation ever attempted on such a scale, a scale, Brothers and Sisters, unimaginable! The first of the Himalayan peaks obliterated, with all but four elevations above 4,500 meters eventually destroyed! Were our glorious leaders satisfied with this profanation?  (No, Brother, no, they weren't!) You're right, Brothers and Sisters, they were not!  Individual nations chose to level every mountain at the 3,500 meter level! The Alps, the Pyrenees, the Rockies, the Olympics, the Andes, and others yet!  Almighty God was disturbed by his creatures' iniquities, and he visited upon them a second flood! (Praise be the power of the Lord!) In less than 10 years, the progress of the glaciers was not only reversed, but almost every trace of ice had disappeared from Antarctica and Greenland! The waters rushed towards the skies, engulfing islands and coastal plains, burying in the briny deep the homes of literally two billion people! Did our secular leaders care? (No!) They did not! They called the catastrophe a mere error of calculation, and persuaded our forebears to believe that this small error could produce such a large effect.
    We know the real consequences of this "miscalculation," Brothers and Sisters: deaths from drowning, financial ruin, mass displacements of populations, the creation of an even more powerful and more secular Earth government, a change in climate that no one had anticipated, not even the servants of God themselves. The tropics spread north and south, the temperate zones have by now reached the very poles! With a more watery Earth, there's more rain, very few of the beautiful deserts are left. The once frozen tundra of Antarctica, Alaska, Canada, Greenland, and Siberia are today fertile lands, while the jungle has moved out to the once peaceful cities and farmlands of the world! The geography of the Earth has been altered, forever! And once again, our so-called leaders have refused to see the light! But their sins go deeper still, and there seems to be no end to their iniquity and their abominations. (Death to the killers!  Death to the blasphemers!)
    I have discovered, Brothers and Sisters, that on that huge space craft that you and I helped pay for--yes! we helped pay for it by paying taxes and being good citizens!--on that space craft there are several people whose genetic structure has been altered, contrary to the will of God. Listen closely to what I say, for you will hear that after trying to play God in space they are now trying to replace him in time. Oh, the abomination! On that space craft there are people to whom the powers that be on this Earth have given an extension of life. No, not a year, not a decade, not fifty years, Brothers and Sisters, but a full two centuries, yea, 200 additional years or more, counting from the day of their evil operation!  (Monsters!) Monsters, yes; and these monsters will go forth in the name of humanity, and will make contact with whatever alien civilizations God in his infinite wisdom might have put on another planet, far enough away so that the twain would never meet. What representatives of humanity! Monsters who live inordinately long lives and who have been rendered infertile by the very operation that extends their lives.  (Monsters!)
    Who will these creatures meet? Let us assume for a moment that there indeed are intelligent beings elsewhere. Would they be, like the children of Adam and Eve, nay, like Adam and Eve themselves, made in the image of the Lord? Or would they be slithering serpents, made in the image of Satan? If Almighty God had wanted us to meet such beings, he would have told us about them in his sacred texts. They must therefore be not his children, but the children of his eternal enemy. And those who seek them out can only be fools, unbelievers! In Psalm 13, the Prophet sings: "The fool says to himself, 'There is no God!'  Their conduct is all corruption and perversity, not one does good!" And these are our leaders! Down with the infidels! (Down with the infidels!)
    That space craft--you've seen the images--has flown rapidly out of sight. It may be too late for us to alter anything about that one missive from hell, but we can do something about the future! We can prevent the training of future space explorers! (We can!) We can prevent the hybridization of our kind!  (We can!) We can reverse the evil political system spawned by the godless servants of Satan, who would like nothing more than to introduce Satan's sons and daughters to the Earth, the better to pollute the air we breathe and the moral code to which we adhere! (We can!) And to prevent this from happening we must take up arms against them! (We must!) We must infiltrate their ranks and corrode them from within! (From within!) Yes, an injection of the pure blood of the followers of Almighty God's justice will act like a poison in the venomous veins of the evil ones! (Justice! Justice!) We must serve Almighty God and spread his sacred word throughout the Earth, and even into the space stations! Into Future One, into Aphrodite, into Ares! (We must!) We must wage a holy war against the ungodly! (War! War!)
    Nor are we alone, Brothers and Sisters: concerned persons of other religions, who are no less servants of the living God than we, are at this moment meeting around the world! A council of Elders has been formed, and those churches that agree to a program of concerted action will form a Sacred Alliance to Reclaim the Truth! As representatives of the true believers among our Judeo-Christian faiths, we are in a position to do the work of the Lord and to become leaders in the fight against the forces of Satan!  Brothers and Sisters, Sisters and Brothers, our choice is clear: not join the enemy OR fight them, but join the enemy TO fight them! (Fight the forces of Satan!) We must go underground, and we must be strong.  Perhaps our struggle will take centuries, perhaps we who are now here will not be present when the Lord is vindicated, but we will prevail! (We will! We will!) Are you for God, or for Satan? (God! God! God!)
    If you agree to join with us, Brothers and Sisters, rise and repeat after me: "I swear my solemn vow  (I swear my solemn vow) to resist the godless enemy (to resist the godless enemy), to fight for the justice of Almighty God (to fight for the justice of Almighty God), to reverse the progress (to reverse the progress) of the infamous World Government (of the infamous World Government); and to this end (and to this end) I pledge my honor (I pledge my honor), my fortune (my fortune), my very life (my very life), so help me God! (so help me God!)"
