NEW-AGE
EVOLUTION VIA INDIGO CHILDREN?
By
David Ben Yakov
What I'm about to write about has interested me for
quite a while. I've always paid attention to the definitions that the New Age
(Old Lie) gives to phenomena that it deems important. It's always good to know
what your adversary is up to. By adversary, I am not addressing the people who
adhere to New Age philosophy, but to the author of the New Age, or what it
really is; the old lie. The author is Satan and in the spirit realm he has
little publishing houses throughout the world that are commonly known as demons.
These publishing houses disseminate information to earthly publishing houses;
mainly those who adhere to and promote New Age philosophy; whether they be
psychics, channelers or just the owner of an occult book store or the New Age
adherent who preaches his or her false gospel to people who aren't firmly
grounded in the truth. As believers in the true Messiah, Yeshua; we have to
recognize that the common run of the mill New Age believer is a pawn that has
unwittingly been duped into believing a lie. They are no different than all of
us were before we came to faith in Yeshua. Some even claim to have once been
believers in Yeshua, but like the seed that falls on shallow ground, they soon
withered when times got hard or when they saw other believers in mortal frailty.
It should be no surprise to anyone that so many
people run to the New Age for answers. The Church by and large has refused to
address issues that became prevalent in the 20th and 21st centuries. For
instance, when evolution raised its ugly head in the mid 19th century the church
pretty well ignored it. If the subject was brought up then, or as late as the
1970's the person asking the question was basically told that the premise of
evolution was evil or that perhaps it was a passing fad. I was presented the
same explanation back in the 70's when I asked about evolution. Well, for me
that wasn't a good enough explanation and I felt that if the "religious" people
couldn't explain why evolution was bad or why I should avoid it
then I would explore evolution itself. This led to a few years of confusion and
my adherence to the evolution lie. It is important, when explaining the dangers
of anything that an complete explanation be presented. For instance, if a child
tries to reach up to the stove to touch a hot pot and an adult just tells them
not to do it, it only piques the curiosity. Human nature causes that child to
want to touch the pot to see why the adult was so adamant about them not
touching it. I speak from my own experience, so I know. But, if the parent sits
the child down and tells them that should they touch the pot, they will get
burned, that it will hurt a great deal and that it will take a few days of
hurting before it heals then the child will know why they shouldn't touch
the pot.
So, when a Christian is presented with a question by
another believer, a searcher or anyone for that matter about the subjects of
deception; UFO's, evolution, the occult or anything else they should be prepared
to either answer the question, or to forward that person to an authoritative
figure in the matter. Some day you'll probably run into a New Age person and if
they have had any brush with Christianity, they will tell you that they didn't
get the answers to the questions that they had. And, most of the time they'll
tell you that their questions weren't about love, faith or hope; but they'll
tell you that something bizarre happened to them, or that they had been thinking
about a subject that Christians or the Church could not answer. And why couldn't
they answer those questions? Well, it was simply because the subject dealt with
something that Christians ignored or refused to talk about because it was not in
the status quo of Christian thought.
My people are destroyed for
lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject
thee.... Hosea 4:6
Now I'll be the first to acknowledge that the
scripture above is talking to the Jewish people of Hosea's time. But, there are
implications for the Church of Messiah
Yeshua
where this is concerned. A lack of knowledge of the sins of this world and the
weirdness that is going on all over the globe will turn around to bite the
Church in the backside. First, we need to know how the deceptive ways of the
enemy will try to come directly against the Church. The extraterrestrial agenda
is a perfect way to illustrate this premise. Back in the late 1940's and the
1950's anyone who professed interest in the UFO phenomena was deemed a bit off
center, perhaps on the fringe element of society. The mere mention of the
subject brought about raised eyebrows by the listeners and ridicule of the
person bringing up the subject. In church, if the subject was dared presented
the person presenting it was deemed to be dabbling in the occult or perhaps they
were thought to be demonized. And this was simply done at the suggestion of the
possibility of extraterrestrial life being a possibility. The Church didn't
present valid answers, just jest and confusion. All throughout my short 47 years
here on earth it seems that the Church in large has refused to address the issue
of UFO's and extraterrestrials. Why? Well, simply because it's too
controversial. Oh, if we bring that up some of the people might leave the church
and never come back. Well, the Church is supposed to be like her maker,
Yahweh,
Yeshua Ha Mashiach who brings up controversy all throughout the Bible. Yeshua
was a walking controversy while he lived here on Earth and wherever He went it
seems that contentions arose. And why did they arise? Well, it was because He
challenged the "religious" of his day. He presented ideas that sounded foreign
to the Jewish leaders and to a lot of the people who had been indoctrinated by
those believers. So why should His Church be any different. Is it because the
money might dry up? Is it because people would go to other churches? Is it
because it would make some people feel uncomfortable? I really feel in my heart
of hearts that Yeshua didn't allow those things to fog His judgment, so neither
should we. I'm not saying that we should adopt strange ideas, but we should know
about those things so that we can minister to those who do adhere to those
things. I'd be willing to bet that any person reading this, should they conduct
a secret poll of ten believers in your church, would find out that at least two
of them believe that we're not alone in the universe. That should be troubling
to everyone because it shows how the New Age philosophy has infiltrated into the
Body of Messiah.
So the second way that a lack of knowledge will
destroy Yahweh's people is by infiltration. Anyone who's ever lived in an older
house will be able to relate to infiltration. Having been raised in a cold
climate I am aware of how cold can enter a house and make one's life miserable.
Before wintertime we would go throughout the house and look for air leaks.
Weather-stripping would be replace around doors and windows as winter
approached. The attic insulation would be checked carefully. We would install
plastic around the windows to insulate against the cold. We even insulated
around the electrical plugs and switches in the walls to keep cold air from
coming in. It was quite an involved process. Older houses are even worse because
they're usually not insulated as well as the newer homes. Because of that, cold
air could come through the floor, the walls and even from the ceiling. While the
house in general was protection from the snow and most of the wind, cold air
always seems to come in and make for a larger utility bill or cold nights. The
modern Church is like an old house. It stands on a firm foundation and guards
against the wind and cold, but because it refuses to insulate against bizarre
doctrine, some cold air, in the way of strange beliefs, comes in and makes parts
of the Church cold. The UFO phenomena is like the cold coming in through the
floor of the old house. The Church could go under the house and insulate it, but
fear of spiders, bugs and dark confined spaces cripples the keepers of the
Church from going there to guard against the problem. So the problem persists
while the Church denies that there is a problem and every year people by the
score pick up a little more of the cold, in danger of getting hypothermia and
dying in false doctrine.
Anyway, with all of this in out in the open I will
start a study on a group of individuals that the New Age refers to as Indigo
Children. The first information is actually something that I pulled from
Wikipedia and it mirrors what I read on sites dedicated to Indigo Children.
Indigo children
From
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Indigo children
is a term used within the New Age movement to refer to
children who claim or who are believed to possess certain
special psychological and spiritual attributes.
The Indigo Child
concept was first publicized by the book The Indigo
Children: The New Kids Have Arrived, written by the
husband-and-wife team of Lee Carroll and Jan Tober. Carroll
insists that the concept was obtained via conversations with
a spiritual entity known as Kryon. The reason for the use of
the adjective "indigo" is not universally agreed upon. Some
sources link it with an early researcher into the
phenomenon, who was synesthetic. It has also been claimed
that these children appear with an indigo-hued aura.
The
Environment and Evolution
The Indigo Child
movement states that the children in question are born with
an empathic connection to Earth and others' thoughts.
However, due to natural limits in infant communication,
Indigo Children's supposed abilities (empathy, telepathy,
extra-sensory perception and extra-normal perception) are
often suppressed by negative parental or societal influence.
The Indigo Child movement therefore encourages parents to
support those children in whom can be seen traits which are
often labeled as negative by mainstream authorities but as
positive by Indigo Child theorists. Many Indigo Child theory
supporters believe that these traits can also be brought out
in non-Indigos, but that Indigo Children are predisposed to
them thanks to an evolutionary advantage.
Characteristics
Carroll and Tober
identify ten attributes that describe the Indigo Child:
- They come
into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act
like it).
- They have a
feeling of "deserving to be here," and are surprised
when others do not share that.
- Self-worth
is not a big issue; they often tell the parents "who
they are."
- They have
difficulty with absolute authority (authority without
explanation or choice).
- They simply
will not do certain things; for example, waiting in line
is difficult for them.
- They get
frustrated with systems that are ritually oriented and
do not require creative thought.
- They often
see better ways of doing things, both at home and in
school, which makes them seem like "system busters"
(non-conforming to any system).
- They seem
antisocial unless they are with their own kind. If there
are no others of like consciousness around them, they
often turn inward, feeling like no other human
understands them. School is often extremely difficult
for them socially.
- They will
not respond to "guilt" discipline ("Wait till your
father gets home and finds out what you did").
- They are not
shy in letting it be known what they need.
In her
article
Indigo Children: What's an Indigo Child??
Wendy H. Chapman (enlightenment
teacher at and Director of Metagifted Education Resource
Organization) says that Indigo Children will also display
many of the following:
- Have strong
self esteem, connection to source
- Have an
obvious sense of self
- Refuse to
follow orders or directions
- Get bored
rather easily with assigned tasks
- Are rather
creative
- Display
strong intuition
- Have strong
empathy for others or NO empathy
- Develop
abstract thinking very young
- Are gifted
and/or talented, highly intelligent
- Are often
identified or suspected of having ADHD
- Are frequent
daydreamers
- Have very
old, deep, wise looking eyes
- Have
spiritual intelligence and/or psychic skills
Some critics
believe that these traits are not unique and are observable
in most children, but adherents believe that this new type
of child has come forward for a reason; most often suggested
is that they will improve the world in some way. The changes
generally discussed involve bringing peace, toppling corrupt
institutions, and a shift from allopathic medicine to a
greater understanding of more natural alternatives. Indigo
Children are said to be more in touch with something called
the Universal Truth, and do not tolerate or understand
behaviors or systems that are not in harmony with it.
Indigo Children
are sometimes said to possess an extreme longevity, but
given the birth dates above the source of this belief is
unknown.
Indigo
Abilities
Many discussions
of Indigo Children in new-age literature (including Kryon
literature) claim that Indigo Children are born with part of
their DNA activated that most people do not have activated.
Some claim that it is junk DNA that they utilize to "swap
out" higher-dimensional information, giving them special
abilities.
These abilities
are said to include purging HIV, advanced genius and
psychic/telekinetic powers (See Indigo Children -
Crystalline Children and The Indigo Crystal "Human Angel")
speaking to the dead.
'April'
Children
As the Indigo
movement began in the early 80's, a related phenomenon
called 'April Children' was being reported in Greece. Greek
journalist Kostas Hardavelas announced that the University
of Athens showed some unusual interest in children
specifically born during April of 1983. The University is
said to have sought them in schools and performed interviews
and surveys without further information or notification to
the public. Hardavelas produced a documentary about the
interviewees, promoting the view that these children had
high IQ, mental abilities, peculiar dreams and spiritual
experiences. In the absence of specific data about the key
players and their aims within the University, the
documentary posits the theory that connects the apparent
anomaly to some cosmic event (planetary alignment or
excessive solar activity).
Speculation about
the children born during April 1983 is based on information
from a book and articles written by Greek science-fiction
and conspiracy theory author Ioannis Fourakis. Fourakis
believes that the 'April Children' have a mark on their
skin, and that they will play some important role in the
future in accordance with his theories of Ellinokentrismos.
Non-mystic
interpretations
Some critics feel
that it is possible to use the traits assigned to Indigo
Children as an observation of social trends, rather than as
a signifier of a new race or form of consciousness. One such
trend is more and more children are viewing magical/mystical
TV shows and media that use new-age interpretable language.
Coupled with how children feed off the media in their own
natural fantasy play, such mystical make-believe could be
unintentionally falsely re-interpreted as signs of
preternatural knowledge, maturity or "higher consciousness".
An example of
this emerged in a 2006 article in the Dallas Observer which
covered the Indigo Child phenomenon. The reporter observed
an 8-year-old boy named Dusk quizzed by a man on his
"Indigo" status:
"Are you an
indigo?" he asked Dusk. The boy looked at him shyly and
nodded. "I'm an avatar," Dusk said. "I can recognize the
four elements of earth, wind, water and fire. The next
avatar won't come for 100 years." The man seemed impressed.
However, readers
of the Dallas Observer pointed out in letters to the editor
that Dusk may have been drawing on the Nickelodeon
children's show Avatar: The Last Airbender. This
highly-rated television show features a twelve-year old boy
who is the reincarnation of the Avatar Spirit, has the power
to manipulate (or "bend") earth, wind, water and fire, and
was once frozen in suspended animation for one hundred
years. These similarities were not noted within the article,
and the editor of the Dallas Observer later admitted they
were not aware of the connection until several readers
brought it to their attention.
Criticism
and scientific investigation
Skeptics point
out that proponents of the Indigo movement lack verifiable
evidence to support their claims. Indigo literature
frequently talks about "University studies" and "interested
scientists," however scientists such as Russell Barkley, a
research professor of psychiatry, have stated, "There's no
science behind it. There are no studies." Barkley has also
expressed concern that labelling a disruptive child an
"Indigo" may delay proper diagnosis and treatment that may
help them.
Indigo Children
are often the offspring of New Age parents. Exposed to New
Age thinking, it might be taken as unsurprising that the
children possess a greater fluency of spiritual language
than earlier generations. Having been told that the vast
majority of children are now Indigos, New Age parents in
fear of suppressing this special generation may be
encouraging antisocial behaviors. It is said that many of
the traits identifying Indigo Children could simply be
interpreted as simple arrogance and selfish individualism
when viewed from a very specific viewpoint.
Just as many
people tend towards astrology because it presents believers
with simple, complimentary accounts of themselves, critics
of the Indigo Child concept claim that parents relate to the
hypothesis because it provides a more flattering conclusion
about their child than current mainstream psychological
descriptions that are popular among most parents, such as
ADHD or Asperger's Syndrome. Indigo Child is not a
recognized term in the field of psychology, although some of
the authors of Indigo literature have degrees in psychology;
one reason for this might be that the concept of Indigo
children is relatively new.
Critics have also
voiced concern that teaching children that they are Indigo
will encourage children to adopt sociopathic behaviors, such
as a sense of human superiority, alienation, and a "bizarre"
paranormal identity.
Education
Educators,
generally, have not embraced the Indigo Child supposition;
many educators are not even aware of the Indigo child
movement. Some alternative educators have
accepted the Indigo concept, and have related their mission
to the needs of Indigo Children. Philosophies that resonate
with Indigos' style of learning may include experiential
education, multiple intelligence strategies, project-based
learning, unschooling, and student-centered learning.
Evolution Meets Evolution:
Sorry to start off with a side note, but I feel it's
necessary and very important. With the advent of the UFO craze, there started
the courtship of two very sinister concoctions. We all know that the modern
phase of Darwinian Evolution started back in the 19th century and was raised to
the attention of the general populace with Darwin's book "On
the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of
Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life." Slowly but surely the book and
theory took on converts, many times coming against mediocre resistance from a
Church that didn't know exactly how to battle what it though was a lunacy that
would soon pass away like many other oddball ideas had in the past. Ignore it
and it will go away. Well, the Church was wrong. Evolution started to make
inroads in the institutions of higher learning and indoctrinated the minds of
many who in turn preached the false gospel to many others, sort of like the
domino effect of Communism that everyone feared for seventy years. Finally, when
the Church started to lose parishioners to evolutionary thought it woke up and
started quite a quick and fairly successful fight against the multiheaded
monster of the beast. And, I'm happy to report that the beast does have a very
serious wound. But I have to say, that it could evolve into a different beast,
or merge with another beast to become a super beast.
The other beast I mention is the beast of the
Extraterrestrial Agenda. Ever since it's inception, the Extraterrestrial Agenda
has promoted that there are life forms on other worlds. First the supposed
extraterrestrials said that they came from other worlds in our solar system, but
when we started to explore those worlds and noticed that they were barren and
uninhabitable the "space brothers" changed their story and placed their
civilizations just far enough out of reach to make that lie hard to discover;
places like Orion and the Pleiades. At first they came to earth and told us that
they were just observing. Then the story changed and they said that they were
here to keep us from destroying ourselves. Finally, the story evolved into their
claim that they are really our progenitors and that they are here to help us
change, and to help us evolve into a higher form of being. Sounds like the
classic line when caught in a lie, the liar says, "what I really meant was..."
Can you see the beast starting to rise up yet?
Well, Darwinian Evolution is dying a horrible death.
Inaccuracies are being discovered all of the time and some scientists have come
to faith in Yeshua and they have pointed out many more bullet wounds in the
troubled theory. So what do liars do when they are faced with their own lie in
the plain sight of all? Well, they make another lie to cover up their old lie,
and they explain it away in some sort of fashion. For instance, back in the
1990's, then President Clinton made a claim that he never had sexual relations
with Monica Lewinsky. When it became apparent through evidence that Mr. Clinton
did formally have relations with Ms. Lewinsky, the story was distorted. First,
he tried to make it seem like Ms. Lewinsky forced herself on him and he just
couldn't resist. Then, in a final effort to save his bacon, he tried to change
the definition of what actual sex really was. Figuring that "actual penetration
with sexual organs" was the only real term for sex he tried to distort the
claims that were being made against him. Then when under examination for
impeachment he even tried to distort the meaning of common English words to worm
his way out of his dilemma. Well, fortunately, people didn't buy it; at least
the sane ones.
So what does one do when it seems that evolution is
dying and you have to save the patient at all costs? Well, you do anything you
can do to stop the death process. You see, the New Age has always found
evolution to be true in their estimation. Founded on Eastern Mysticism, they
adhere to reincarnation, which is nothing but a fancy word for evolution of
one's spirit until a person reaches Nirvana, or perfection. In what is almost
always a long series of countless lives by each spirit, perfection is finally
reached according to their doctrine. The extraterrestrial agenda has also
adopted this notion. They promote the idea that they are here to aid us in
stepping up to our next ladder rung of evolutionary progression. Of course, they
are promoting this evolutionary progression as one that is spiritual. They have
to make this step a spiritual one because no physical evolution ever happens and
so it will have to be something that they say has happened, but has no real
physical evidential traits.
Many Darwinian Evolutionists, faced with the stark
realization that physical evolution (macro-evolution) is not a viable
explanation for all life on earth will have to adopt the extraterrestrial
explanation for origins of life on earth. The only other choice that they have
would be to admit that there was a creator and that would eventually lead to the
admission that Yeshua is Yahweh; the creator of the universe. Granted, some will
come to that realization, but the majority; those who can't bend a knee and
acknowledge accountability to a living God will accept the lie that "space
brothers" created life on earth and are tending us like a shepherd tends sheep.
But if the evolutionists and those in the extraterrestrial camp were correct
(which they are not) then someone would have had to create the
extraterrestrials, and so on and so forth. Somewhere down the road, there would
have had to have been a creator of all things. So all that the extraterrestrial
origin theory does is push back the inevitable fact that there was a creator.
And just like they moved their home planet location to Orion and the Pleiades to
keep the truth just out of reach; they have pushed back the subject of origins
to make it look so far back into antiquity that it makes it seem unsearchable.
No Physical Proof? Then Make It
Spiritual.
So what does a person or a group do when they aren't
accountable to the
Ruach Ha
Kodesh, and they can't prove something in the physical realm? Well, they
make it spiritual of course. The same lie that accounts for the Indigo Children
being a special "spiritual" evolutionary phenomena has been played out for
years. One good example would be the Jehovah's Witness' spiritualizing the
second coming of Messiah. For many years they preached that the Second Coming of
Messiah would be in or around 1914. They proclaimed that Armageddon would occur
at that time and would usher in the Second Coming. Well, 1914 came and went as
did the years around that year and Yeshua never came back and Armageddon never
occurred. So, in an effort to save face, they then had a "divine revelation"
that Yeshua's second coming did in fact occur, but that it was an invisible
spiritual second coming. Sorry, but when Yeshua returns, it's not going to be by
some divine twelve step plan, but it will be as He said it would be, "all eyes
will see him."
Part of the New Age doctrine is the premise that
people won't so much be changed on the outside, but that they will experience a
rebirth inside. This of course is a counterfeit of the Biblical doctrine that
Yeshua proclaimed, that a person has to be Born Again, before they can see the
Kingdom of Heaven. Knowing that Satan has never had an original idea during his
whole existence we know that he'll try to imitate in a corrupt manner,
everything that Yahweh has instituted for the sake of holiness. When a person
comes to Yeshua and accepts by faith that his/her sins are forgiven by the
sacrifice that Yeshua made on the cross, they become a new creature. Now, we see
no physical change for the most part. But we do see the the inner man renewed;
made into a new creature. Old habits die, sin isn't fun anymore and we have the
Ruach Ha Kodesh inside of us showing us right from wrong and revealing the truth
of Yahweh to our soul and spirit. A year after I came to faith in Yeshua I still
looked the same as I did before my new life. Part of my demeanor caused an
outward appearance in that I smiled more and my parts were used for
righteousness rather than for sin, like they were before; but my visage was
basically the same.
The Luciferic Initiation is basically the equivalent
to Yahweh's "born again" experience. In some writings their initiation is
referred to as a "born again" phenomena. So it stands to reason that if the
Ruach Ha Kodesh comes to inhabit the Messianic believer; the spirit of
antichrist must be what comes to indwell those who chose the New Age; it can be
no other way.
With this in mind, we have to surmise that if those
who come to faith in Yeshua are referred to as "sons of God" then the believers
in the New Age would adopt the same title for themselves; worshipping a false
Christ, promulgated by a false gospel. We come to faith in Messiah Yeshua and
when we procreate we teach our children the way that they should go and pray
that someday they will accept Yeshua as their salvation too. But it is their
choice and they don't become Christians or Messianists because they are born
into it. Many cultures are deceived by this assumption. I once worked with an
Armenian lady who thought she was a Christian because she was born in what she
called a "Christian Nation;" that being Armenia. Well the same assumption can be
made by a child born in a taxi, thinking that they are destined to be a taxi
driver or a child born in a bagel shop; thinking he or she was a bagel.
The New Age though carries this absurdity to the
highest degree. They feel, for the most part, that these Indigo Children are
being born to people who are involved in the New Age. The ones who aren't born
to New Age parents are just some sort of lucky individuals who the universe
happens to thing worthy of the so called blessing; this so called spiritual
evolution.
But What About Those Attributes?
Just jump back up on this page and see some of the
attributes that these supposed blessings from nature (Indigo Children) seem to
have. I think that we can all connect with some if not many of these attributes.
I for one hated standing in line when I was a kid, and sometimes still do. I
questioned authority a lot when I was younger and sometimes still do. Most
children come into the world feeling like royalty, like they are more special
than the other children around them. I've never liked ritual, especially when it
comes to religious service. I've always thought of better ways of doing things.
Most children that I've encountered, including myself when I was a child, are
antisocial. Most children when first taken to the playground have to be
introduced to other kids and sometimes coaxed into participating. School was
difficult for me socially and there were times that I turned inward because I
really didn't want to be a jock and I didn't want to be a brainiac either. Most
kids are vocal in what they want. Just follow any mother with children when she
is in a supermarket and they get near the candy or kid's aisle. All you'll hear
is the mother telling the child that they can't have this or that and she'll
repeat it until the allure of the items is no longer in view. I'd say that 90+
percent of children act that way in a supermarket; and the ones who don't have
probably been disciplined for their actions previously.
The word "discipline" is the whole crux of the
matter. Yahweh gives us parents to lead and guide us as we're growing up. Of
course, we have to hope and pray that the parents that we have care enough to
guide us and provide correction when it is needed. Nobody likes standing in line
but patience is obtained by standing in line. Friends can be made standing in
line too. The person in front and back probably hate standing in line too and it
is a good way to break the ice, talking about the line. Authority is not a bad
thing if it is a good authority; one that can be understanding and teaching. By
submitting to good authority we learn how to become good authorities ourselves.
Ritualism isn't a bad thing, especially if the ritual consists of bathing every
morning, brushing one's teeth and putting on the deodorant. Ritual is good if it
involves getting up and going to work every morning so that one can be a decent
and productive member of society. So certain rituals, although they can
sometimes become mundane, are both acceptable and necessary. There's nothing
wrong in finding easier ways of doing things. But, one has to know the hard ways
in order to know how the easier ways work. For instance, when me and my piers
were in high school way back in the 1970's we were not allowed to use
calculators in class. That really bugged me a lot because calculators helped me
a great deal. When I was frustrated I asked the teacher why he had what seemed
like such a stringent rule against the electronic devices. The teacher told me
that he wanted me to know how to do the math when a calculator wasn't handy. He
presented to me a scenario where I would be in a very important business meeting
and would forget my calculator. I would not have a chance to obtain one and
needed to know how to do figures on paper. Since I knew the deeper things of
mathematics I would be able to figure things out on paper and close the deal
with the people I was working with. When it was explained to me it made perfect
sense and I accepted it. So, there is always a good reason for us to know how to
do things the hard way and practicing that is not a fault in our character, but
asset to it.
And more on discipline. When I was a child I hated
making new friends. My parents knew this, especially my mother. She sent me to
the YMCA to learn how to swim and I had interaction with other kids there. Then
she got me involved with the Cub Scouts and I made friends there. In school she
encouraged me to get involved in chorus and that is where I got my appreciation
for music. My parents encouraged me in many things, and I'm not ashamed to say
that there were times when they had to be a bit forceful. But you know what? It
is because of those things that I can walk up to just about anyone and strike up
a conversation. I can make friends pretty easy and I'm a social person. Had they
not disciplined me in those things I would have been a slug that never left the
house. And look at a lot of the kids today; many of them not wanting to leave
the house and be social; playing video games and watching television all day
long. It's a sad state of affairs, but there's hope. And of course, almost all
of the kids in my generation went to the store with our mothers announcing that
we wanted things that we really didn't need. But we were given correction, stern
and swift, which meant that it really didn't happen again. My mother still
laughs at how after correction from she and my father, all she would have to do
in a store after that was to squeeze my hand and I would behave. There's nothing
wrong with that, is there? I think not. But many in my generation and the ones
that followed never got the correct discipline. This can be seen today as having
carried over into adulthood. People have gotten themselves in debt up to their
eyeballs simply because they're adults now and they don't have anyone squeezing
their hands and telling them no.
Of course there are other aspects of the Indigo
Children that all of us have experienced as children. So, as for these kids
being special, or some sort of newly evolved form of human being, I have to say
that it is all a bunch of bovine scatology. The only difference is that where
our parents taught us discipline (or at least tried to) in some sense or degree,
the parents of the so called special children are told not to. I constantly
apologize to the younger generations for the way that my generation has helped
to mess up the world. But, imagine how messed up the world would be right now if
none of our parents had whacked us on the behind for inappropriate behavior
simply because they thought us to be some specially evolved entities. Well, we
won't have to imagine too long because when these Indigo Children grow up they
will fill the world with spoiled rotten psychopathic deviates and we'll get to
see it first hand.
The Bible Prophesied Indigo Children
Types:
It shouldn't come as too much a surprise that the
text of the Bible talks about the Last Days, and how people will be at that
(this) time.
This know also,
that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be
lovers of their own selves,
covetous, boasters, proud,
blasphemers, disobedient to
parents, unthankful, unholy,
Without natural affection,
trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of
those that are good, Traitors,
heady,
highminded, lovers of
pleasures more than lovers of God;
Having a form of godliness,
but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of
this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly
women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning,
and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes
and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men
of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall
proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men,
as their's also was. 2 Timothy 3:1-9
The little list below is made to show how the
descriptions used to illustrate the so-called improvements on human evolution is
really in sync with what Timothy said in his epistle. But, instead of espousing
the New Age description as something good, Timothy shows how these things show a
declination toward psychopathic behavior exhibited by anyone who tries to exalt
mankind over Yahweh. Care should also be taken to remember that one attribute
exist with another and that although not all of the behaviors mentioned in 2
Timothy are highlighted, the behaviors that are can lead to the behaviors which
are not highlighted are possible with continued practice of the ones that are
highlighted.
Lovers of their own selves:
- They come into the world with a
feeling of royalty (and often act like it).
- They have a feeling of
"deserving to be here," and are surprised when others do not share that.
- Have an obvious sense of self.
- Have strong self esteem,
connection to source
Boasters:
- They often see better ways
of doing things, both at home and in school, which makes them seem like
"system busters" (non-conforming to any system). Note:
This can often lead to boasting as evidenced in my own childhood
demeanor
Proud:
- They come into the world with a
feeling of royalty (and often act like it).
- They often see better ways of
doing things, both at home and in school, which makes them seem like "system
busters" (non-conforming to any system).
Disobedient to Parents:
- Self-worth is not a big issue;
they often tell the parents "who they are."
- They have difficulty with
absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice).
- They will not respond to "guilt"
discipline ("Wait till your father gets home and finds out what you did").
- Refuse to follow orders or
directions.
- Note: And any other sort of rebellion related to
any of the above descriptions.
Without Natural Affection:
- Have strong empathy for others
or NO empathy
Heady:
- They often see better ways of
doing things, both at home and in school, which makes them seem like "system
busters" (non-conforming to any system).
- Are gifted and/or talented,
highly intelligent
- Develop abstract thinking very
young
- Are rather creative
Highminded:
- They often see better ways of
doing things, both at home and in school, which makes them seem like "system
busters" (non-conforming to any system).
- They are not shy in letting it
be known what they need.
- They have a feeling of
"deserving to be here," and are surprised when others do not share that.
Having a Form of godliness, but denying the power
thereof:
- Have spiritual intelligence
and/or psychic skills.
- Display strong intuition
Incontinent (without self control):
- Are often identified or
suspected of having ADHD
The Correlation Between Indigo
Children and Psychopaths:
The Following was found on the internet at:
http://faculty.ncwc.edu/toconnor/428/428lect16.htm a page found on the North
Carolina Wesleyan College website. I include it as to show how the behavior of
the Indigo Child in many ways parallels psychopathic behavior.
DETAILED ANALYSIS OF THE
PSYCHOPATH
Psychopaths cannot be
understood in terms of antisocial rearing or development. They are simply
morally depraved individuals who represent the "monsters" in our society. They
are unstoppable and untreatable predators whose violence is planned, purposeful
and emotionless. The violence continues until it reaches a plateau at age 50 or
so, then tapers off. Their emotionlessness reflects a detached, fearless, and
possibly dissociated state, revealing a lower autonomic nervous system and lack
of anxiety. It's difficult to say what motivates them - control and dominance
possibly - since their life history will usually show no bonds with others nor
much rhyme to their reason (other than the planning of violence). They tend to
operate with a grandiose demeanor, an attitude of entitlement, an insatiable
appetite, and a tendency toward sadism. Fearlessness is probably the
prototypical (core) characteristic (the low-fear hypothesis). It's helpful to
think of them as high-speed vehicles with ineffective brakes. Certain organic
(brain) disorders and hormonal imbalances mimic the state of mind of a
psychopath.
There are four (4)
different subtypes of psychopaths. The oldest distinction was made by Cleckley
back in 1941 between primary and secondary. However, we'll explore the other two
subtypes first:
DISTEMPERED PSYCHOPATHS
are the kind that seem to fly into a rage or frenzy more easily and more often
than other subtypes. Their frenzy will resemble an epileptic fit. They are also
usually men with incredibly strong sex drives, capable of astonishing feats of
sexual energy, and seemingly obsessed by sexual urges during a large part of
their waking lives. Powerful cravings also seem to characterize them, as in drug
addiction, kleptomania, pedophilia, any illicit or illegal indulgence. They like
the endorphin "high" or "rush" off of excitement and risk-taking. The
serial-rapist-murderer known as the Boston Strangler was such a psychopath.
CHARISMATIC PSYCHOPATHS
are charming, attractive liars. They are usually gifted at some talent or
another, and they use it to their advantage in manipulating others. They are
usually fast-talkers, and possess an almost demonic ability to persuade others
out of everything they own, even their lives. Leaders of religious sects or
cults, for example, might be psychopaths if they lead their followers to their
deaths. This subtype often comes to believe in their own fictions. They are
irresistible.
PRIMARY PSYCHOPATHS do
not respond to punishment, apprehension, stress, or disapproval. They seem to be
able to inhibit their antisocial impulses most of the time, not because of
conscience, but because it suits their purpose at the time. Words do not seem to
have the same meaning for them as they do for us. In fact, it's unclear if they
even grasp the meaning of their own words, a condition that Cleckley called
"semantic aphasia." They don't follow any life plan, and it seems as if they are
incapable of experiencing any genuine emotion.
SECONDARY PSYCHOPATHS
are risk-takers, but are also more likely to be stress-reactive, worriers, and
guilt-prone. They expose themselves to more stress than the average person, but
they are as vulnerable to stress as the average person. They are daring,
adventurous, unconventional people who began playing by their own rules early in
life. They are strongly driven by a desire to escape or avoid pain, but are
unable to resist temptation. As their anxiety increases toward some forbidden
object, so does their attraction to it. They live their lives by the lure of
temptation.
Hare's PCL-R 20-item
checklist is based on Cleckley's 16-item checklist, and the following is a
discussion of the concepts in the PCL-R:
-
GLIB and SUPERFICIAL
CHARM -- the tendency to be smooth, engaging, charming, slick, and verbally
facile. Psychopathic charm is not in the least shy, self-conscious, or
afraid to say anything. A psychopath never gets tongue-tied. They have freed
themselves from the social conventions about taking turns in talking, for
example.
-
GRANDIOSE SELF-WORTH
-- a grossly inflated view of one's
abilities and self-worth, self-assured, opinionated, cocky, a braggart.
Psychopaths are arrogant people who believe they are superior human beings.
-
NEED FOR STIMULATION
or PRONENESS TO BOREDOM -- an
excessive need for novel, thrilling, and exciting stimulation; taking
chances and doing things that are risky. Psychopaths often have a low
self-discipline in carrying tasks through to completion because they get
bored easily. They fail to work at
the same job for any length of time, for example, or to finish tasks that
they consider dull or routine.
-
PATHOLOGICAL LYING
-- can be moderate or high; in moderate form, they will be shrewd, crafty,
cunning, sly, and clever; in extreme form, they will be deceptive,
deceitful, underhanded, unscrupulous, manipulative, and dishonest.
-
CONNING AND
MANIPULATIVENESS- the use of deceit and deception to cheat, con, or defraud
others for personal gain; distinguished from Item #4 in the degree to which
exploitation and callous ruthlessness is present, as reflected in a lack of
concern for the feelings and suffering of one's victims.
-
LACK OF REMORSE OR
GUILT -- a lack of feelings or concern for the losses, pain, and suffering
of victims; a tendency to be unconcerned, dispassionate, coldhearted, and
unempathic. This item is
usually demonstrated by a disdain for one's victims.
-
SHALLOW AFFECT --
emotional poverty or a
limited range or depth of feelings; interpersonal coldness in spite of signs
of open gregariousness.
-
CALLOUSNESS and LACK OF EMPATHY
-- a lack of feelings toward people in general; cold, contemptuous,
inconsiderate, and tactless.
-
PARASITIC LIFESTYLE
-- an intentional, manipulative, selfish, and exploitative financial
dependence on others as reflected in a lack of motivation, low
self-discipline, and inability to begin or complete responsibilities.
-
POOR BEHAVIORAL CONTROLS --
expressions of irritability, annoyance, impatience, threats, aggression, and
verbal abuse; inadequate control of anger and temper; acting hastily.
-
PROMISCUOUS SEXUAL
BEHAVIOR -- a variety of brief, superficial relations, numerous affairs, and
an indiscriminate selection of sexual partners; the maintenance of several
relationships at the same time; a history of attempts to sexually coerce
others into sexual activity or taking great pride at discussing sexual
exploits or conquests.
-
EARLY BEHAVIOR
PROBLEMS -- a variety of behaviors prior to age 13, including lying, theft,
cheating, vandalism, bullying, sexual activity, fire-setting, glue-sniffing,
alcohol use, and running away from home.
-
LACK OF REALISTIC,
LONG-TERM GOALS -- an inability or persistent failure to develop and execute
long-term plans and goals; a nomadic existence, aimless, lacking direction
in life.
-
IMPULSIVITY -- the occurrence of
behaviors that are unpremeditated and lack reflection or planning; inability
to resist temptation, frustrations, and urges; a lack of deliberation
without considering the consequences; foolhardy, rash, unpredictable,
erratic, and reckless.
-
IRRESPONSIBILITY --
repeated failure to fulfill or honor obligations and commitments; such as
not paying bills, defaulting on loans, performing sloppy work, being absent
or late to work, failing to honor contractual agreements.
-
FAILURE TO ACCEPT
RESPONSIBILITY FOR OWN ACTIONS -- a failure to accept responsibility for
one's actions reflected in low conscientiousness, an absence of dutifulness,
antagonistic manipulation, denial of responsibility, and an effort to
manipulate others through this denial.
-
MANY SHORT-TERM
MARITAL RELATIONSHIPS -- a lack of commitment to a long-term relationship
reflected in inconsistent, undependable, and unreliable commitments in life,
including marital.
-
JUVENILE DELINQUENCY
-- behavior problems between the ages of 13-18; mostly behaviors that are
crimes or clearly involve aspects of antagonism, exploitation, aggression,
manipulation, or a callous, ruthless tough-mindedness.
-
REVOCATION OF
CONDITION RELEASE -- a revocation of probation or other conditional release
due to technical violations, such as carelessness, low deliberation, or
failing to appear.
-
CRIMINAL VERSATILITY
-- a diversity of types of criminal offenses, regardless if the person has
been arrested or convicted for them; taking great pride at getting away with
crimes.
So it is fairly simple to see that the Indigo Child
has some of the traits of psychopathic behavior. Since this is the case, perhaps
they are one and the same. While it is my contention that some people are born
"just plain bad;" I do believe that (contrary to what the Wesleyan Faculty) that
this behavior can be acquired. Imagine if you will, a child that had two parents
and a family structure that allows them to run amok their whole childhood. The
child would grow up with little sense of right and wrong; no knowledge of God;
basically a poster child for anarchy. Given this foundation, the child would
become a psychopath, or as the Bible refers to him/her, a child of perdition. It
is scary to think that a whole generation of these individuals are now in the
process of being handed the keys to the world and all its affairs.
The Anti-Christ Generation:
So, if you wanted to become a world dictator; one
devoid of Yeshua or any sort of accountability, what would try to rear up before
your reign? Well, you'd want a generation of people who have absolutely no
morals. You'd want them to exhibit every trait mentioned in the 2 Timothy
prophecy. You'd want drones who will flock to you at the right time. You'd want
psychopaths, all whom have your key in their ignition, waiting for you to turn
them on.
If the Indigo Children craze takes off that is
exactly what will happen. For the most part, my generation has reared up a
generation of children, not because they want to procreate and please Yahweh.
No, they just want to have children because it is what couples do. It is no
different than all of the other worldly things that people acquire in order to
keep up with the Jones'. Children are like new cars or homes in the eyes of
many, made to last for the first five or six years without any maintenance; void
of any upkeep and wearing a pretty facade while containing dead men's bones
inside. They're all out there looking for answers although most of them would
not admit to their search. Although most don't claim to be Indigo Children, they
still possess the same qualities that the Indigo's say that they have, minus the
spiritual abilities. When the world plummets into chaos some day soon and it
seems that there is no hope, these children will be walking around in a dark
fog, begging for answers. And of course, into the scene will pop one man who
claims to have all of the answers. He'll solve a lot of the world's problems and
he'll be accepted as the Messiah, Christ, the 12th Mahdi, Buddha and every other
waited for deliverer.
The Remedy:
So of course we have to take a look at what the
Bible; Yahweh's own Word, has to say about quashing this phenomena. The Bible
says thus:
Train up a child in the way
he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6
There are other scriptures that talk about using a
rod to administer correction to a child and there are probably some instances
where such correction is necessary depending on the child. Back when I was a
teen there was a lot of talk, and I think there still is, about not spanking a
child. There were all sorts of reasons offered as to why spanking was a bad
idea. But now we see a generation of kids who weren't spanked and they're on the
news all of the time for doing stupid things and also committing crimes that
were unthinkable just a generation back in time.
Now I currently have no children so some of you would
dismiss what I say as the rantings of a fool who doesn't know what he is talking
about. I can however present my credentials as a former child. I know what was
going through my head when I was misbehaving and it wasn't good. A couple of
years before he died, my dad and I had a talk about punishment. I mentioned to
him about the times that he needed to hit me with his belt. Dad dropped his head
in sadness and apologized to me for that sort of punishment. I rebuked him for
his apology however. You see, he told me that I was basically a good child and
he thought that I didn't need that sort of correction. Well, I know me, and what
I was thinking and the plans that I thought out and implemented before I
disobeyed, so I knew that I wasn't the great child that dad knew me to be. So I
thanked him for hitting me with the belt the few times he did. I told him that
had he refrained from doing that to me I would have turned out to be a terrible
adult; probably a very self centered individual and would have been real messed
up. I used my cousin as an illustration; who incidentally was never punished for
anything. He came to Yeshua after many years of drug abuse and lawlessness.
There is a beautiful scripture in Hebrews that
applies to this whole thing:
And ye have forgotten the
exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not
thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For
whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he
receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for
what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye be without
chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave
them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of
spirits, and live? For they verily for a few days chastened us after their
own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his
holiness. Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but
grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of
righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. Hebrews 12:5-11
So hence, we have to bring up our children in the
ways of Yahweh, and we have to start on them as young as possible. We have to
keep them on the right path. We can trust Yeshua to aid us on the spiritual
upbringing of our children, that is a given. We can also pray that He'd give us
the wisdom to raise out children in all other aspects of life. He can help us to
overcome our inadequacies and bring up fine young men and women of Yahweh.
The site where I got the information about
psychopaths made mention several times that people with this problem really
aren't redeemable. In worldly affairs that might be true but we have to remember
one thing. None of us was marketable before we were redeemed by the blood of
Yeshua. We were all losers and all heading to hell. Even the best of us was like
the worse psychopath in Yahweh's eyes, but He didn't give up on us.
Indigo Children aren't unredeemable! They're just
kids who are getting off to a bad start, guided by misguided adults. Granted, a
lot of deliverance and spiritual warfare needs to be worked through in order to
fight and win this battle, but the results will be glorious. The Indigo Children
myth is a reality that needs to be prayed for and come against in the Spirit. We
need to guard our kids against it and equip them to fight it. After all, they
are part of that perverse generation and they will be dealing with it long after
we have gone to Glory.
