Partial List of Requirements
You have to read the Bible from cover to cover, in
chronological order, following our reading assignments.
This is a one-year program. You can take longer, but you can't take less
than one year to read the entire Bible and complete this program.
This is a 365-day program. You can take more days,
but you cannot complete more than 1/365th of the program in any 24-hour period.
You have to answer two or three easy, obvious,
no-brainer questions on each of these 365 days.
< "Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?"
You must blog your answers to our questions. We
will set up the blog for you. The blog will be a public record of your compliance with the
terms of this wager. We will "monetize" the blog with advertisements of our choice
which will bring in a minimum of $1,000 in revenue per year, enabling us to pay off the bet
in the extraordinarily unlikely and improbable event that we lose this bet. You will get
paid $1,000. We will retain all revenue generated above $1,000. All advertisements will be
family-friendly; no gambling.
You are not required to provide any proof
whatsoever that you can pay up when you lose this bet. (And you will lose.) You will
not be required to give us your credit card number. You will not be required to send us a
registered letter from your attorney or accountant certifying that $1,000 has been placed in
escrow in the event you lose this bet. (And you will lose.) If we lose the bet and
don't pay, you may sue us in one of the government's courts, put a lien on our bank
accounts, and send an armed Marshall out to shoot our dog, taser us, and put us in
handcuffs, but we won't sue you when you lose and don't pay. That's because we're
anarchists, and you're not.
Yet.
In addition to persuading you to become an anarchist
and to join our movement to repeal the Constitution and abolish
the government of the United States, our home Bible study program is going to persuade you that the
modern doctrine of "separation of church and state" is a myth, and you will join our
movement to promote Biblical Law and make America a Christian Theocracy
once again. If we're wrong, we'll pay you $1,000.
You're probably thinking to yourself,
Anarchist?
Abolish the United States?
Theocracy?!?
This will be an Easy
$1,000!
Think again.

Every single person who signed the Declaration of
Independence and the Constitution would say this about you:
You are a victim of Educational
Malpractice.
As a result, the men who risked their lives, their
fortunes, and their sacred honor to make America the most prosperous and most admired nation
in history would say you are
A pathetic American, or not a real American at
all
A Christian-in-name-only, who makes Jesus puke
A waste of awesome human potential
See the
first letter Samuel Adams sent to colonial Americans through
the "Committees of Correspondence."
We want to change this.
We want you to become:
An Extraordinary American
An Extraordinary Christian
An Extraordinary Human Being
If you went to a government-approved school, you have been
systematically deprived of the three things
that every single person who signed the Constitution would say are a necessary part of a
basic American education.
These three things are specifically mentioned in
America's Organic Law. But you were never taught that America's Organic
Law is the most fundamental founding charters of America's government. Now that you know
what the "Organic Law" is, you still don't know what fundamental documents it
contains. Article III of one of them says this:
Religion, morality,
and knowledge being necessary to good
government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall
forever be encouraged. The utmost good faith shall always be observed towards the Indians;
their lands and property shall never be taken from them without their consent . . . .
The Organic Law of America not only recognizes our dependence on
and duty towards God, but specifies where we
should be taught about our Creator (religion),
the rights with which He has endowed us, and our duties toward Him and our fellow man (morality).
America's Founders said that the Christian Religion and Christian morality were to be
taught in public schools.
Even though Justice Douglas concurred in Engel
v. Vitale, which removed Christianity from public schools in the early 1960's, he was
honest enough to admit that
Religion was once deemed to be a function of the public school system.
Soon after that, knowledge
was removed from public schools, because when some kids have knowledge, that hurts the
"self-esteem" of those who don't.
The average teenager in 1776 knew more about what it
means to be an extraordinary American, an extraordinary Christian, and an extraordinary Human
Being than you do. Transport the average teenager from 1776 to our time and that teenager
could figure out how to use your Blackberry, your TV remote control, and drive your SUV in a
matter of days, but it would take you months, maybe years, to learn as much about geography,
morality, history, religion, political science, virtue, and develop the habits of character
which the average American possessed in 1776.
Reading the Bible is the first step in our year-long
program to impose a colonial American education on you. The Internet now makes it possible for
you to experience the same childhood education that George Washington, Thomas Jefferson,
Samuel Adams, and John Hancock experienced. Their education made it inevitable that they would
abolish the government -- a government which they described as a "tyranny."
You are not a Real
American
A real American believes that the Declaration of
Independence is really true. We have not just a right, but a duty
to abolish any government that becomes destructive of our right to life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness. If you believe the government has a right to kill us, enslave us, and
confiscate our property, then you are a communist, not an American.
Nobody who signed the Declaration of Independence or
the Constitution would consider YOU to be a real American -- unless the mainstream
calls you an "extremist." But you
will be an "extremist" when you finish this program. Because you are going to
want to abolish the present government and make America a Christian Theocracy
once again.
Men like Sam Adams and John Hancock were "extremists."
They tossed tea into the Boston Harbor and called their government a "tyranny."
You, on the other hand, are a zombie. You work your boring 9-5 job like a worker-drone. You
say nothing when the government takes your paycheck for a Wall Street "bailout."
The tax on tea, the "Stamp Act" taxes, and
all other taxes combined added up to only 1%
or 2% of the colonists' income. The tax burden
today is 20-50 times greater than it was under George III in 1776.
On May 2, 1778, when the Continental Army had emerged from its
infamous winter at Valley Forge, Commander-in-Chief George Washington issued the following:
The commander-in-chief directs that divine service be
performed every Sunday at eleven o'clock in those brigades [in] which there are chaplains;
those which have none [are] to attend the places of worship nearest to them. It is expected
that officers of all ranks will by their attendance set an example to their men. While we
are zealously performing the duties of good citizens and soldiers, we certainly ought not to
be inattentive to the higher duties of religion. To the distinguished character of
patriot, it should be our highest glory to add the
more distinguished character of Christian. The signal instances of providential
goodness which we have experienced, and which have now almost crowned our labors with
complete success, demand from us in a peculiar manner the warmest returns of gratitude and
piety to the Supreme Author of all good. The Writings of George Washington,
JC Fitzpatrick, ed., Wash. DC: US Gov't Printing Office, 1932, Vol. XI:342-343, General
Orders of 5/2/1778
You do well to wish to learn our arts and ways of life, and
above all, the religion of Jesus Christ. These will make you a greater and
happier people than you are. Congress will do every thing they can to assist you in this
wise intention. The Writings of George Washington, JC
Fitzpatrick, ed., Wash. DC: US Gov't Printing Office, 1932, Vol 15, p.55.
John Witherspoon was undoubtedly one of the most
influential educators of his day. His students at Princeton University included one President,
one Vice President, three Supreme Court Justices, 10 Cabinet members, 12 Governors, 60
Congressmen (21 Senators; 39 Representatives) plus scores of state officials and members of
the Constitutional Convention. Witherspoon said:
" . . . he is the best friend to American
liberty, who is most sincere and active in promoting true
and undefiled religion, and who sets himself with the greatest
firmness to bear down profanity and immorality of every kind. Whoever is an avowed enemy of
God, I scruple not [would not hesitate] to call him an
enemy to his country." Witherspoon, Works, VI:13, from "An Address to
the Senior Class at Princeton College," Sept. 23, 1775; III:42, from "The Dominion
of Providence over the Passions of Men," delivered at Princeton on May 17, 1776.

Most Americans today are enemies of America. That
is, enemies of the ideal that America's Founding Fathers fought for: Liberty
Under God.
To be a great American, America's Founders said,
you have to be a Christian.
But You are NOT A
Real Christian
Jesus Christ said it's better to be dogmatic and wrong
than it is to be ignorant and air-headed. It's better to be a Nazi or a Communist than to be a
"moderate."
I know your works, that you are
neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm,
and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.
Revelation
3:15-16
Americans are air-heads. They are more concerned
with being accepted by the mainstream and the majority than they are pursuing the truth. The
majority of Americans think of themselves as being "non-conformists"
in some sense, and everyone conforms
to this illusion.
America is ILLEGAL
in 2013
Under pressure from the ACLU, federal courts have
made it illegal for students in government-run schools to be taught that the Declaration of
Independence is really true. Students can be taught
that dead white guys like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson used to believe it
was true, but public schools cannot teach that the Declaration really is true today,
and that students today really should risk their
lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor to believe and promote
ideas from the Declaration of Independence such as these:
The existence of God is a "self-evident
truth";
Our rights
are the product of intelligent design, not random, impersonal evolution, nor
arbitrary social convention;
If we know and obey God's Commandments, we can
have "a firm reliance on the protection of
divine Providence." (This belief is the opposite of "deism."
"Providence"
is the miraculous, supernatural intervention of God in history, changing the natural order
of things in response to prayer. Not a single person who signed the Constitution was a
"deist." Not
one.)
Any government employee teaching or promoting these
ideas in 2013 would be guilty of violating "the establishment clause" -- according
to the ACLU and the federal government. They would be accused of attempting to "impose a
Theocracy."
And of course no school will ever teach students that
it is not only our right but our duty to "abolish"
any government -- such as ours -- that becomes a tyranny.
Public schools won't teach students that America's Founders believed that the most important
civic duty any American can perform is abolishing tyranny one
law at a time. This is done through a process you know nothing about: "Jury
Nullification."
On the day after the Constitution was ratified,
America was a land of "Liberty Under God."
The Christian Religion and Christian Morality were taught in every school. Any intelligent
person can see that America was a Christian Theocracy on the day after the Constitution
was ratified. Get the facts here.
"But what about the 'separation of church and
state,'" you ask. This is a myth.You
have been brainwashed. You will agree with these claims, or we pay you $1,000.
Today the U.S. is not only an atheistic government,
the U.S. is one of the most socialist governments on earth. This was true even before the Bush
Administration's 2008 Wall St. "Bailout"
-- but especially after. The tax on tea was nothing compared to the $3000 being taken from
every man, woman and child in America and used to bail out irresponsible Wall Street
investors. And an equal amount for a "Stimulus
Package." And now there's "ObamaCare."
America's Founding Fathers would work to abolish the
Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama regime.
Are you putting your $1,000 into an envelope ready to
mail? Because you are going to lose this bet.
* Actually, we
believe America's Founding Fathers were wrong
to get their muskets out. Jesus said "put
away your sword." The Bible says "pay your taxes." We are going to
persuade you to become an anarchist, and abolish the government, but also to become a
pacifist, and abolish it non-violently.
When you hear the word "anarchist,"
you have been trained to imagine
a bomb-throwing assassin,
who destroys private property,
and causes chaos and disorder.

Who is the
Greatest Threat to Life, Liberty and Property?
A. "Governments"
B. "Criminals"
Who drops the most bombs,
assassinates the most people,
deprives more individuals of liberty
destroys the most private property,
and causes the most chaos and disorder?
"Anarchists"
or "Archists?"
Organized "government" claims to
protect us from "criminals" who might steal from us or kill us.
In 1994, "criminals"
committed 7,885 bank robberies, taking $28 million.
That same year, "government agencies"
seized $2.1 Billion
in "asset forfeiture proceedings,"
often without "probable cause," and often not returned when innocence
was proven.
The "anarchist" Tim McVeigh was blamed for
the bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma, but U.S. archists have bombed
many more federal buildings in Iraq,
with far greater loss of innocent life. Some who are reading this will remember Dresden.
"Archists"
have confiscated hundreds of billions of dollars in private property in recent years,
have murdered hundreds of millions, and have deprived billions of human
beings -- literally, billions -- of liberty. And much of this has been funded
or protected by the productivity of Americans like you. "Your
tax dollars at work."
Name one "anarchist" who built a concentration camp, or bombed
an entire city "back to the Stone Age."
More governments have been overthrown by other governments than by
"anarchists."
In the 20th century, organized "governments" intentionally
killed an average of 10,000 human beings each and every single day. (That figure
does not include abortions, which occur today an average of 135,000 times per day
around the world.) Our program will prove to
you that "the government" is the greatest force for crime and evil on the
planet.
By the time you finish this program,
you will agree that ARCHISTS are the greatest enemy of
Godly order,
and those of us who are anarchists
must persuade all archists to repent.

In order to qualify for this $1,000 wager, and give yourself a fighting chance at
succeeding, you must agree to give up 1 hour of "the mainstream media" each day:
1 hour of "American Idol," or
a half-hour of the CBS Evening News and a half-hour reading the sports section of your
favorite newspaper, or
2 half-hour sit-coms, or
1 hour of escapist fiction, romance novels, or
1 hour of computer games, off- or online, or
1 hour of Rush Limbaugh, Opie and ____, or other "drive time" radio as you
commute to work (MP3 downloads of this home-study program are available to burn to CD so
you can listen in the car while you drive to and from work), or
any combination of 1 hour's worth of the
mainstream
media each and every day. Cut it out.
You will substitute in its place 35-45 minutes of our daily reading program, 5 or 6
minutes answering no-trick questions, and a few minutes of prayerful thought.
20 minutes in the morning, 20 in the evening.
15 minutes for breakfast, 15 minutes at lunch, 15

Property and civilization are not secure in the
absence of these character traits, no matter how powerful
"governments" are. Where these traits are cultivated and
rewarded, "archists"
are unnecessary.
In addition to reading the assigned portion of the
Bible, you must agree to spend a minimum of 90-180 seconds per day meditating on Godly
character traits, using guidelines we specify, with the goal of developing these traits
in your own life. A partial list of required traits appears in the box on the right.
Meditating on these character traits will transform you into an anarchist. No
judgments will be made by us as to how successfully you develop or practice these traits in
your life. You simply agree to allow us to brainwash you by listening to our audio
meditations.
Even if you lose this bet, you will be allowed to keep these Godly character traits as a
free bonus.
Since you have been deprived of an education which creates colonial
character, you will probably drop out of this program without even completing the
requirements.
[There is no penalty for doing so. You will not have to pay a penny if you drop out before
the 365-day program is completed.]
We want to make this fair. Therefore, a personal coach will be assigned to you to help
maintain your motivation and discipline. You will set up a weekly telephone check-in call.
The check-in call will last a minimum of 5 minutes, up to 15 minutes at your pleasure, to be
scheduled by you for a time convenient for you, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The purpose of this coach is not to persuade you on the issues, but simply to encourage you
to complete the program, and overcome any obstacles in the way of completion.
You must be willing to become the person
your family, friends, and co-workers most admire by the time you finish this program,
even if you don't think that's possible.
You must be willing for your family, friends, and
co-workers to see you trying to make radical improvements in your life. We will ask for two
or three letters of reference prior to commencing our wager from people who know you and
will attest that you are undertaking a program to become the person they most admire.
It may be that the only people you know may not
admire you, but may be people that you don't admire either -- with good reason. In this
case, you must commit in advance to become the kind of American that George Washington,
Thomas Jefferson, and Samuel Adams would have admired. If you attended a government-run
school, you may not know who these men were. More specific details will be provided. (Hint:
Some people called them anarchists because they abolished their government.) Bottom line: We
want you to make a commitment to be admired by admirable people.
You must be willing to admit that if you are not
already the most admired person that your family, friends, and co-workers know when you
begin this program, that this is your own fault. (This is a requirement because many people
subconsciously refuse to make a commitment to radically improve their lives because then
they will have to admit that they weren't without fault all along. Better to just stick with
the status quo (they think) than to admit their own shortcomings by resolving to improve
them.)
You must agree in advance that when you lose this bet, you will volunteer to
be a mentor or coach to at least one other person each year for as long as you are able to
do so. We will show you how to make a substantial commission every time you sell our
home-study program to people in your church, at work, or in your neighborhood, earning
more money than you lost in this wager.
We ask that you commit in advance to donate (to
religious or charitable causes) a minimum of 10% of any windfall profits that accrue to you
as a result of undertaking our program.
The Bible promises that if you meditate on God's Commandments (the basis for the character
traits you will be studying) you will prosper:
Only be strong and
very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant
commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that
you may prosper wherever you go. This book of the Law shall
not depart out of thy mouth: but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest
observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way
prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Joshua 1:7-8
Therefore keep the words
of this covenant, and do them, that you may prosper in all that
you do.
Deuteronomy 29:9
And keep the charge of
the LORD your God: to walk in His ways, to keep His statutes, His commandments, His judgments,
and His testimonies, as it is written in the Law of Moses, that
you may prosper in all that you do and wherever you turn;
1 Kings 2:3
But his delight is in the law of the
LORD,
And in His law he meditates day and
night.
He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its
season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever
he does shall prosper. Psalm 1:2-4
On the other hand, you may lose
everything. In our day the "Bill of Rights" means
nothing. You may become the object of government surveillance. The FBI or other
government intelligence agencies may open a dossier on you and members of your family. Your
participation and public affiliation with an "anarchist" website may lead to IRS
harassment in the form of an audit or other legal inconveniences. You may be deemed an
"enemy combatant." If your
job required you to take an oath or sign a statement indicating your support of the U.S.
Constitution, you may lose your job
because you visit "anarchist" websites. Your house or place of business may be
searched and your assets "forfeited."
You may become targeted
for assassination. We cannot be responsible for these eventualities. You have to make
the decision: will you be approved by the government, or will you be approved
by God?
The Bible is the most important book in the history of Western
Civilization. It is also the book more people own but have never read. Yet these same
people have dogmatic opinions about the nature of the Bible and what it says. Because
you are a victim of educational malpractice, and lack a colonial American education, you
are incapable of understanding the Bible, and have erroneous pre-conceived ideas about
the Bible that close your mind to the conclusions to which we are trying to lead you.
You may doubt our credibility and reliability to the point where you will not be
persuaded by anything we say about the Bible. Therefore we will require you to read four
(4) other works which are widely regarded as being among the
most important in the history of Western Civilization. Reading these four
works, in addition to the Bible, will re-create a colonial American education in just
one year. These four credible, reliable, and time-honored works will abundantly confirm
our "anarchist" interpretation of the Bible and the human condition. We will
show you how to download these works for free from the Internet.
Success experts like Brian
Tracy say you should read for an hour a day in your chosen field to be successful
(that's more than a dozen books a year). George
Washington read the Bible for an hour in the morning and an hour in the evening.
Your "chosen field" was chosen for you by God: to be an extraordinary human
being. If you can't read just four
of the most important books in the history of Western Civilization next year,
you'll never be a success in the human race.
"The Westminster
Standards"
At a time when the total population of America was only four million people, it is
estimated that some five million copies of the "Westminster Shorter
Catechism" were available in the colonies. Historian Richard Gardiner writes:
The Westminster Catechism was not only a central part of the colonial
educational curriculum, learning it was required by law. Each town employed an officer
whose duty was to visit homes to hear the children recite the Catechism. The primary
schoolbook for children, the New England Primer, included the Catechism. Daily
recitations of it were required at these schools. Their curriculum included
memorization of the Westminster Confession and the Westminster Larger Catechism. There
was not a person at Independence Hall in 1776 who had not been exposed to it, and most
of them had it spoon fed to them before they could walk.
It takes approximately 11 minutes per day to
read through the Bible from cover to cover. It only takes a couple of minutes to read
through the Westminster Catechisms and Confession. They were written around 1645 and
the drafters unequivocally opposed anarchism. But they believed that God is God, and
denied that the State is God, a necessary first step on your road to becoming an
anarchist.
Capitalism Many people today believe that the government produces wealth. Others want the
government to redistribute wealth ("spread the wealth") to special
interests. Such people wouldn't even entertain the idea of abolishing the
government, much less actively work toward that goal. "The government can give
us whatever we want if we just vote the most generous and compassionate politicians
into office." Adam Smith would be appalled at such ignorance and immorality.
Smith taught ethics at the University of Glasgow and wrote a Theory
of Moral Sentiments.
In the same year as the Declaration of Independence was written (1776), Adam Smith
wrote a book entitled An
Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of The Wealth of Nations,
widely regarded as the first treatise on capitalism. Capitalism is
unquestionably one of the most important features of Western Civilization.
Capitalist nations enjoy health and prosperity. Capitalism is the opposite of
socialism. Socialist nations can't spread the wealth, they can only spread the
poverty. Socialism -- government intervention in the economy -- is not just inefficient
and wasteful, it is immoral.
Smith's book is not easy reading. A more recent treatise is: Capitalism
by Prof. George Reisman. We will assign Reisman's text. Consistent socialism
is maximum government. We believe consistent capitalism is anarchism,
the absence of government force. Prof. Reisman disagrees with us, but his book will
help us prove our point with credibility and impeccable logic.
Theocracy America became the most prosperous and admired nation in history because it was
a nation "Under God."
In short, America was a Christian Theocracy. Today the word "theocracy"
conjures up images of Islamic terrorists and mullahs. People think of
"theocracy" as a police state governed by priests. This is
inaccurate. The word "theocracy" comes from two Greek words, theos,
meaning "God," and a Greek word meaning "rule." A
theocracy where God rules is a nation "under
God." America has always
been known as "one nation Under God," and therefore America has
always been a Christian Theocracy.
But there are good theocracies and there are bad ones. A nation can be attempting to
be a Christian Theocracy and do a very poor job of it. We do not believe that a good
Christian Theocracy is a police state. We believe a good Christian Theocracy is one
where all the priests and princes have resigned and gotten real jobs where they
serve others.
Americans today have been misled by the myth of "the Separation of Church and
State." This mythical idea -- not found anywhere in the Constitution -- has
come to mean the separation of God and State, with God being separated into
the private world of fantasy and imagination, and the State having omnipotent
power in "the real world."
In
1892 the United States Supreme Court unanimously declared that
America was "a
Christian nation." The Court went back to the discovery
of North America by Columbus, and summarized all the official
legal charters and documents that acknowledged our duty to God and
created the American Theocracy, the most prosperous and admired
nation in history.
In
1989 the Court said, "This
Court squarely has rejected the proposition that the First
Amendment is to be interpreted
in light of any favoritism for Christianity that may have existed
among the Founders of the Republic. "May
have?" America is no longer a nation under God. As a result,
America -- once prosperous and admired -- is now bankrupt
and despised.
The great conflict in Western Civilization today is whether our world
will become
The third reading assignment will be the history of Christian Theocracy
and "Western Civilization."
Hundreds of years before Christ, the
prophet Daniel spoke of the first Christmas, Christ's coming in the days of the
Roman Empire. That empire was destroyed, and Christian Theocracy began growing. The
Emperor Justinian began Christianizing the Eastern Roman Empire, and in the West kings
like Alfred and Ethelbert made the 10 Commandments the basis of new legal systems. The
"Common Law" began, with a
Christian foundation, and eventually found its way into the Constitution of the
United States, "a Christian nation." No one book adequately chronicles this
history, so we will read from a number of books that try:
Excerpts from these books are freely available
on the Internet. Only one of the authors agrees with our anarchist conclusions, but
their arguments lead to our conclusions if consistently held.
There are two stories that need to be told:
The first is how Christianity destroyed
the slavery and paganism of the
Roman Empire and brought "Liberty Under God," the foundation of
"Western Civilization" (476 A.D.- 1517 A.D.).
The second story is the story of America,
and how
Calvinism created America
(1517 - 1787)
America apostatized into an atheistic empire (1787 - 2012)
and -- hopefully -- how America repented and became an anarchist-theocracy
(2013 - ????).
To begin this second story, we will assign the reading of the Supreme Court's opinion in
the 1892 Decision Holy Trinity
Church vs. The United States and all the historic legal documents cited by the
Court.
Four months into the program we will be taking a detailed
survey of all participants to monitor their progress. We will determine the chief
continuing objections to becoming an anarchist (if any). The fourth text will be
assigned based on the individual answers.
One of the most popular objections to undertaking the task of abolishing an atheistic
dictatorship by working to persuade archists to repent (resign) is the belief that
Christ is going to return "any day now," and "you
don't polish brass on a sinking ship." Christians are soon going to be "raptured,"
it is believed, so why work against the tyranny of "The New World Order" or
invest energy in a defense of "Liberty Under God?" Those voicing such
objections will be assigned an 1876 book entitled The Parousia:
This book is simply a catalog of all New Testament
prophecies concerning "the second coming." The result of looking at all the
evidence will be a "paradigm shift."
Other objections will be prescribed an appropriate remedy on
an individual basis.
You must pre-qualify for this wager. You must demonstrate that you have
the personal discipline to complete a fairly rigorous daily reading course such as ours.
Our pre-qualifying program is called "The 95 Days of Christmas." It is free and
there is no obligation to engage in the wager. Each day you will read one of The
Ninety-Five Theses that Martin Luther wrote to inaugurate the
Protestant Reformation. You will also read one of our 95 New Theses which surveys the
Bible from an anarchist perspective. Toward the end of "The 95 Days of
Christmas" you will receive instructions on how to apply for the $1,000
"Anarchist Bible Bet." If you don't have the personal discipline to read
Luther's 95 Theses and a short summary of the Bible each day, then you'll never find out
how to become a part of the "Anarchist Bible Bet."
In order to begin "The 95 Days of
Christmas," you must provide your name and email address. You will receive an email
with a link to confirm your desire to participate in "The 95 Days of Christmas."
You must click that link or paste it into your internet browser address window. Nobody
receives further information leading to participation in the "Anarchist Bible
Bet" without following this "double opt-in" process. This eliminates spam
problems.
It's free. There's no obligation. You're not
agreeing to any wager just yet. If you don't sign up, will you become a better
American, a better Christian, or a better human being? You'll benefit if you do sign up.
Guaranteed.
If you think you're going to lose this wager, but you are open-minded
and would like to become more like Jesus, you can enroll in our self-serve home-study
program or our full-serve coaching program.
You'll be going through the "95 Days of Christmas" first. Then the program
will begin.
The first 30 days are free. No obligation. No credit card needed. We'll send details
about the tuition costs to continue the program for the rest of the year. We know you'll
be hooked after 30 days. 2014 will be an incredible year for you.
One final piece of advice. If you're Bill Maher, and you hate
Christianity and people who are "religulous," don't waste your time and mine.
You're an intelligent person or you wouldn't have read this letter this far. Think
about what your time is worth. As an intelligent person, you're going want to
get the 5th grade questions right (and you have to if you want to win the $1,000
"wager"). Because you're a thoughtful and honest person who is seeking the
truth (and because you don't want to be embarrassed when your friends read your answers
on your blog), you're going to have to spend 30-60 minutes a day -- or more -- to win
the bet. One thousand dollars earned over 365 days comes to $2.74 an hour. Is your time
only worth $2.74 an hour? Haven't you got better ways to earn one thousand bucks?
My time is worth less than
$2.74/hr. Since I graduated from college, I have never earned more than the
federal poverty level. I have been a "Life Coach" to hundreds of people,
mostly homeless, devoting thousands of hours, mostly in a volunteer capacity. This is
what I love to do. Now that I'm receiving AARP solicitations in the mail, I realize I
need to get some paying clients. That's what's behind this "wager." I'm hoping
you'll embark on a year-long journey through the Bible with me, and pay me $1,000 when
it's over. If you don't, that's fine. I will have enjoyed it immensely. I'm confident
this will be the most profound transformation of your life.
If you have questions, type your email address in the form below and ask away. Your question will be answered ASAP. Answering questions is a top priority for us.
When you sign up for the year-long coaching program, you'll get
an email every day, telling you what the assigned readings are;
an audio recording of the readings -- for car, exercise, mindless work;
if you enroll in the year-long coaching program, you'll have access to a Members-Only Forum where additional conversation and support can be found;
Weekly (or more often) live Q&A webinars; share progress, encourage one another.
unlimited email questions to your coach
ask a question about the readings
ask for more proof or supporting evidence
ask about how to implement a lesson in your daily life
Other coaches charge 10 times as much for a fraction of the virtue.
There are some really sick people out there.
Some will likely be so obsessed with this website
that they will work through the entire program
with utter compulsive commitment not to be persuaded
just so they can seize $1,000 from us.
Among this group will be found
low-level politicians and bureaucrats
and ecclesiastical clergy.
We believe seeds will be planted in every person
who completes this program. The harvest
may be delayed, but it will be inevitable.
Nobody will go through this program
with our detailed requirements and monitoring
without being changed.
