many have been called Son of God or Son of Heaven
most widely accepted though has been Son of God, Jesus
he ruled without opposition for almost 2,000 years
year 2024 shattered Jesus’ monopoly
a brother/competitor appeared on the scene
can God produce another son after 2,000 years?
yes, for God nothing is impossible
He just has to say, “‘Be,’ and it is”
this time God chose a different land with different religion
how could we be sure that God has a second child?
well, let’s hear it straight from the horses mouth
“I am convinced that God has sent me”
this claim is from India’s leader Modi
can we trust him?
if we accept the following:
“Who wrote the Bible?” “God wrote the Bible.”
“How do you know?” “It’s written in the Bible.”
then we have to believe the 2nd son too
the only similarity both brothers have is that of color
otherwise the temperament is very different
Jesus used to heal people
Modi’s bigotry makes people sick
Jesus commanded people to love neighbors
Modi wants his followers to love only those Hindus who hate others
whereas … Jesus had open arms for all the “weary and burdened“
Modi welcomes selectively people who enhance his Hindu base only …
Christianity began long after Jesus was gone
Modi-anity has already temples (19:13) dedicated to Modi “Bhagwan”
Jesus was for the poor and oppressed
Modi is for the rich and tyrants
Jesus never disowned his mother
whereas Modi does so, after his mother’s death
he analyzed all his “experiences” and concluded :
“Until my mother was alive, I used to think I was born biologically. After her demise, when I look at my experiences, I am convinced that I was sent by God. This strength is not from my body. It has been given to me by God. That’s why God also gave me the ability, strength, pure-heartedness, and inspiration to do this. I’m nothing but an instrument that God has sent.”
and his godly nonsense:
“…Possibly, God only has sent me for some work, for some purpose. And, for the achievement of the purpose, he gives direction, education, ability, energy, inspiration…. Call it ‘daivya shakti’ (divine power) or “ishwariya shakti’ (godly power); all this is not possible without it ….”
“I am nothing, only an instrument through which God has decided to achieve and so whenever I do something I believe that God wants to get it done.”
Indian state of West Bengal’s Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee pointed out Modi’s hypocrisy and hate:
“He is now calling himself the son of God. He claims that, unlike us, he doesn’t have biological parents. He says he has been sent by God. I ask, does God send someone to orchestrate riots or spread lies through advertisements or jail people in the name of NRC exercise?”
“Does God send his emissary to sponsor hooliganism in the name of CAA or stop funds for 100-day work or prevent rural houses from being built? Does God go back on his promise of depositing Rs 15 lakhs in people’s bank accounts? God cannot do such things.”
“If Lord Jagannath is a devotee of Modi babu as claimed by his workers, then shouldn’t we build a temple in his name, offer pujas and prasad before his photo and engage a priest for him? We can do all that, but he shouldn’t play politics by saying such things.”
Jairam Ramesh who is in charge of media in Congress commented:
“The outgoing Prime Minister seems to think he is God. This is an unprecedented level of delusion and arrogance.”
Naseeruddin Shah, an actor, told interviewer Karan Thapar
“Modi has been talking less and less sense over the years.”
[The God thing] should scare the daylights out of everybody”.
Modi has left his wife, his siblings, and all family
his biological family is not allowed any contact with him …
if it weren’t for the tragic outcomes, the following would be comical
Godi media who has no hard questions for Modi, except for sycophancy:
Q. “In your [political] journey, you have encountered many difficulties, in these situations, you make tough decisions, how do you do it?” (1:08)
A. “See, I don’t take tough decisions but correct decisions. Some may feel it’s tough, others may not. Still, like you, I do wonder as to how does Modi do all this? Then I think, no, no, God has sent me for this work. Some divine power is getting this work done through me. With Godly power and Godly inspiration I keep on doing it. This is some kind of God’s gift to me. God Himself has decided that I should work. God has sent me for a purpose. That’s why I stay far away from the [political] storm brewing around.”
Q. “But in this storm, how do you stay calm?”
A. “I stay away. Probably God has shown me this path that you shouldn’t entangle in these problems because you’re destined for some great work. It’s God’s order, God’s wish, and God’s plan, and probably, I am the cause.”
and this is the state of affairs in India currently ….
