(Melchizedek Communique, MC022610) Today, the Barack Obama White House will be meeting with the Secular Coalition for America. The President himself is not expected to be present at the meeting. Included in the Coalition are the American Atheists and the Council for Secular Humanism. [1]

This reported meeting is all that can be found this morning possibly related to the new category of "HuffPost Religion" announced within the past 48 hours at The Huffington Post. (Background: "Huff Post Notices 'Divine Invasion'", http://www.shout.net/~bigred/mc022510.html)

But because a prominent investor now predicts a possible collapse of the British Pound within the next few weeks, even the atheists might "get religion." Jim Rogers and Marc Faber reportedly predict a currency crash in Britain could foreshadow a full scale global "shakedown". [2] Then would come a special "jobs stimulus" -- World War III -- and all bets are off.

When World War III begins, it will be good to know about the Beside-Helper.

When someone dies, Ma'at, an Egyptian goddess, weighs their heart against an ostrich feather. The degree of truthfulness of the heart determines the judgement. A sifting bridge must be crossed over. Depending on the judgement, you will be met on the other side by either a beautiful woman with large breasts, or a dried-up old hag with sagging paps.

The Accuser is present at the judgement. He has drawn up a bill of particulars against you.

But at the entrance to the bridge, a complex figure attempts to get your attention. To some, he might look like Philip K. Dick. For others, not. Whatever his appearance, He is the Beside-Helper.

The Beside-Helper asks if you wish to be represented: He offers to speak on your behalf. He, if you desire, will offer his own bill of particulars in your favor. The offer is made to all, the innocent and the guilty alike.

To all who accept the assistance of the Beside-Helper, the judgement is certain to go in their favor. The bill of particulars entered by the Beside-Helper is a blank sheet of paper. This is processed by Ma'at, who imagines she has received the record of a totally spotless person.

It might be thought that, of course, all -- even the most guilty -- would accept the assistance of the Beside-Helper. But in fact, many consider it degrading to accept the offer of help. These are met at the other side of the bridge by the dried-up old hag with sagging paps. [3]
