The “Christian” Crocodiles

Gather around children for one moment and I will tell you the story of the crocodiles and the inhabitants who lived in De-Nile.

A long long time ago there was a group of crocodiles who lived in the faraway land of De-Nile. I want you all first to know that this De-Nile was a very alluring place. De-Nile was such an alluring place that those who didn’t live in De-Nile would spend most of their days and nights dreaming about living in De-Nile. De-Nile was very different from all the other places in the world. For one, there was a most diverse group of inhabitants who lived in De-Nile. Many people from all around the sphere would risk their lives, so that they could live in De-Nile. Now these crocodiles who lived in De-Nile were the most powerful and intimidating beasts in the sphere. They were known far and wide for their tenacious tenacity, ferocious ferocity, pugnacious pugnacity, and audacious audacity. The crocodiles became so feared that eventually all of the inhabitants of De-Nile began to avoid them. And because of this avoidance, hunting and capturing prey became almost impossible for them. So one day they convened a meeting to discuss their bad fortunes. At the meeting the head crocodile stood u p and said; “We have to devise a way to draw the inhabitants of De-Nile back to our areas. We are becoming increasingly isolated and our power is waning. Soon we all will die from lack of prey.” As the crocodiles began to discuss their decreasing fortunes, one old wily crocodile stood up and said; “The solution to our problem is very simple. We must improve our image. We must rid ourselves of our ferocious ferocity, our audacious audacity, our pugnacious pugnacity, and our tenacious tenacity.” Another crocodile stood up and said; “But how can we rid ourselves of our ferocious ferocity, our audacious, audacity, our pugnacious pugnacity, and our tenacious tenacity. It is our nature to be ferocious, audacious, pugnacious, and tenacious. We cannot rid ourselves of our natures.” The old wily crocodile replied; “Of course we will not rid ourselves of our natures. That is not what I am advocating, but we can appear to be rid of them“. Another crocodile stood up and said, “We do not understand old wily one. Please make yourself clear.“ The old crocodile began to explain his plan; “In order for us to draw those who live in De-Nile back into our areas, we must appear to be the opposite of who we are. We must appear harmless. We must appear to be beneficently benevolent, sympathetically sympathetic, sincerely sincere, and simplistically simple. We must appear to become like the inhabitants who live in De-Nile.” Another crocodile stood up and said, “But there are so many different inhabitants who live in De-Nile. There are Muslims, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, Wiccans, atheists, animists, and voodooists who live in De-Nile. How can we possibly appear to become like all of them.” The old wily crocodile responded; “Oh you of little brain. We do not have to appear to become like all of the inhabitants in De-Nile. We only need to appear to become like one of them. When we have succeeded in appearing to become like one of them, then the rest will eventually choose to accept us also. Once they have chosen to accept us and once we have become entrenched in the society, then we will gradually and systematically begin to devour them. Another crocodile stood up and asked; “But which of the inhabitants in De-Nile should we appear to be like?” The old wily crocodile replied; “That is quite simple. We shall appear to be like the Christians in De-Nile. You see most of the inhabitants who are in De-Nile considers themselves to be Christian. All we would have to do is appeal to these inhabitants. Trust me if you all will only be patient and implement my plan, we shall have plenty of prey to devour.” All the crocodiles agreed and they did as the old wily crocodile had instructed. The crocodiles started to attend Bible studies, and various other church gatherings with the Christians in De-Nile. They began to study and read the Bible. They studied and learned the Christian lingo and mannerisms. They networked tirelessly within the communities. After a period of time the wily old crocodile’s plan began to bear fruit. The Christians and even the Muslims, and Jews and some of the other inhabitants in De-Nile began to accept the crocodiles. The crocodiles were no longer seen as crocodiles.

They were now seen as Christians. The plan worked so well that the inhabitants in De-Nile even elevated the crocodiles to positions of high honor and esteem.

There were many individuals who did not live in De-Nile. These came along and tried to warn the inhabitants in De-Nile about the crocodiles. But those in De-Nile would not listen. They were after all living in De-Nile. They had said to themselves; “What could possibly go wrong in our beloved De-Nile.” So many of these people just shrugged their shoulders and went about their business in De-Nile.

After the crocodiles had become firmly entrenched , they gradually and systematically began to imprison, and prey upon the inhabitants in De-Nile. They would kill and eventually devour a great many inhabitants in De-Nile. In the end only a few inhabitants managed to escape De-Nile. I know, because I was one of those few.

So my children always remember never to trust a crocodile. For no matter how many tears he sheds, a crocodile cannot change his nature just as a leopard cannot change his spots. Also my children always remember those who live in De-Nile will perish in De-Nile.

THE END

Dan: [9] And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

[10] Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

Fits right in with the publicity about the "new " book of Judas. I wonder what this is all about? Another way to deceive the niave people of this world. There are leaders who use people and there are followers who are deceived. Which are you?
