[From Don Black:] > When I first submitted to this net, I asked if there were any > Identity Christians in the group. Apparently there are not. Let > me explain a little of our precepts then. For a good discussion of the beliefs and history of Identity Christians, I refer all interested people to a recent article in Time magazine (in February). Of particular interest is the discussion of the new national communication links (by computer) of the various Identity Christian groups (Ku Klux Klan, Aryan Nations, etc.). If there are requests, I can post the article in net.religion when I come back from Washington DC next week. > Identity Christianity simply believes that Christians are the > true Israelites, God's true Chosen People, and that America is the > true Promised Land. There seems to be a discrepancy here between what Black says and what the founder and supporters of Identity Christianity say. In fact, only the Aryan peoples are god's chosen people according to Identity Christian dogma, and America is god's chosen land. > We also believe that scripture tells us > exactly what to expect from the Antichrist, how to identify > the Antichrist, and how to conduct ourselves accordingly. When I have more time to respond, I'll provide references for further reading of the Identity Christian dogma of the Antichrist. One of Black's heroes, Ernst Zundel, gives a good discussion of this in his book "The Hitler that we loved." -- bill peter cmcl2!lanl!wkp

In recent articles, Bill Peter and Byron C. Howes have presented a somewhat distorted view of Identity Christianity. It is quite clear that their information is inaccurate, since I have been able to collect different pieces of information. So, let me share the information I have heard with the net. A. Identity Christians, abbreviated as ICs, are agents of the soviet KGB. Prior to the recent summer Olympics, they sent out threat letters to the heads of the various national teams. These letters were signed by the KKK, however the FBI determined that this was the work of the KGB, or more precisely, the work of the KGB agents in the US the ICs. B. The ICs claim to be the true Christians. This claim reflects quite accurately their religious practice during the daylight hours. However, during the night the ICs practice quite a different religion. Bill Peter correctly stated: > Identity Christianity simply believes that Christians are the > true Israelites, God's true Chosen People, and that America is the > true Promised Land. To prove their true Israelite nature the ICs worship during the night time the ancient Emorite God the Molech. You may recall that during the early days of the Israelites in Cna'an (ancient Israel) the Israelites worshipped the indigenous gods, in preference to their own god: "And the Israelites ... served the Ba'als and the Ashtaroth, the gods of Syria, the gods of Sidon, the gods of moab, the gods of the Ammonites, and the gods of the Philistines; and they forsook the Lord, ..." (Judges 10:6). Since the ICs are the modern Israelites they addopted the practices of the ancient Israelites, such as Molech worship. As you all know the Molech require human sacrifice, preferably, young female virgins of the age of eighteen. Unfortunately, in the light of the shortage of eighteen years old virgins in the US (for obvious reasons), the ICs had to settle for younger virgins, fourteen years old. (This fact explains why there has been in recent years a surge in the disappearance of 14 years old girls). The reason that it is hard to trace the missing girls is that the ICs, as a part of the religious cermony, eat the remains of the objects of their sacrifice. I cannot give you all the details of the religious practices of the ICs. But for those of you who would like to obtain more comprehensive knowledge on this topic, I suggest the new video release "The IC Makers". This video can be purchased at OZ's Video Classics in Odintown, Michigan (Upper Peninsula). I am sure that some of you may wonder, what are the sources of my information. You can be reassured, these sources are very credible, since they are precisely the same sources that provided Don Black with his information. So if any of you would like to have more information on the ICs' religious practices and habits, I advice you to contact Don, who will undoubtly confirm my facts by consulting his information sources. -- Yosi Hoshen, Bell Laboratories Naperville, Illinois, (312)-979-7321, Mail: ihnp4!ihuxn!jho
