THE "JESUS TRIP" - Garner Ted Armstrong - March 1971

Garner Ted Armstrong

They have long hair. They wear beards and sandals. Some claim to have rejected everything but the basic necessities of life. They hold up two finger s in a "V" to proclaim peace, almost like a Papal benediction. They talk of "making love, not war," and speak of a world where each man is his brother's keeper. They point out, with stunning accuracy, many of the hypocrisies of their elders - especially when it comes to religion. They claim to be gentle, good, wanting to do no harm. They are the "flower children," they say, whose goals are those of meekness and mercy. Often, they speak of Christ. And they don't know what they're talking about. It's easy to spot hypocrisy. Double standards are everywhere. Nations endowed with the religion stemming from the Judeo-Christian ethic have fought each other with viciousness and hate for many centuries. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
