REGISTRATION FORM FOR FELLOWSHIP OF RATIONAL CHILDREN OF THE CREATOR
(FRCC)
There is no scripture in the world that does not accept that there is
only one Supreme Creator of all that exists. The only difference is that some
explain away polytheism as if God has an administrative structure similar to
our mundane ways of ruling ourselves. There are really no pagans in this world!
Replace their many gods and spirits with angels and prophets, you will notice
for the first time that you have the same result; One God, One Created Universe
and therefore One Human Family.
We are all his sons and daughters; possessing same blood chemistry,
similar genetically encoded ACGT helix in our genes, same genus and species in
biological classification, albeit with varied facial differentiations and skin
colour, but, we have same anatomy and physiology such that we mate and produce
human babies that are similar, not monsters! Laughter, crying and singing are
international languages, which all our children speak without being tutored by
any person. The Almighty is their professor!
Anger, fear, hatred, depression and sorrow are human emotions The
Ultimate Designer made to be innate in us and these have no racial boundaries.
Conception, gestation and birth are exactly the same as well modalities of
dying due to accidents, diseases or old age. What else does any intelligent
being need to prove that all humans are equal at birth, but differentiations
arise due to parentage, geographical locations, education and inherited or
achieved social statuses occasioned by opportunities each one experiences in
both clement and inclement weather, dissimilar internal and external
environments or differing atmospheric temperatures and pressures!
Interracial squabbles are man-made! The non-partisan global events we
organise like the World Cups and Beauty Pageants confirm the evident fact that
we are all children of one Omnipotent Father and could live as one human family
amicably. International scientific discoveries and inventions; cellular phones,
computers and digital cameras all of us use passionately prove that all mankind
can live in peace. These gadgets do not discriminate between racial
differences, social statuses or religious affiliations of their users! Or do
they? If they do not, then, let us eschew ethnocentric bias, prejudice and
parochialism. The multiplication of faiths, denominations and churches are the
handiwork of the descendants of the Evil One known by various names in varying
cultures. Let us wake up from centuries of hypnotic enslavement and justify our
claim to the appellation: HOMO SAPIENS SAPIENTIS! Ultimately, what we need is
to go back and imitate Patriarch Enoch recorded in all scriptures as the first
human that was taken up to be with the Creator lest he be corrupted by other
immoral peers of his time!
· The
affirmative statements in the KENEZIAN CREED as were dictated by the Holy
Spirit of the Creator to his humble vessel; Rev. Prof. J. J. Kenez is our code
of conduct.
· If
you want to join us, read and evaluate the universality of each line. Query any
that you find obscure. Meditate on each sentence. Analyse each paragraph or
stanza.
· If
you are still interested after two weeks studying them then you can apply to be
a bond-fide member of ISM; meaning; Integrational Spiritan Movement, and on
admission append; FRCC; meaning; Fellow Raftional children of the Creator; to
your name in all your future correspondences.
· Do
you know you are mortal? Do you accept we were/are all created by a Supreme
Being? Are you a rational being who enjoys the current computer age and its
technologies? Are you objective in your perceptions of events and people? Can
you detach yourself from ethnic stereotypes and speak for all mankind?
· If
you can answer YES to half of these basic questions, then you can apply for
membership of FRCC,saintkenez@yahoo.co.uk.
Many post-colonised people are still enslaved by the imported belief
systems and religious traditions of their erstwhile colonial masters. They may
seem to have gained political independence, yet they are enslaved in their
minds, especially by dogmas and doctrines theorised, developed and patented by
foreigners. Prominent among these are the two major religions of the world;
Christianity and Islam. Syncretism, sectarianisms and denominationalism
compound the sad state of bigotry they entail. This dissertation provides
pragmatic alternatives that are inter-ethnic, integrational and international.
These and other psychopathological nuances like fanaticism, mysticism and
esotericism are the evils of dogmatic religions addressed by this natural
theologian, a medical scientist, a consultant clinical psychologist, an
existential therapist and quintessentially a Research Psychometrician.
Religion was/is a superstitious search by humanity for its origin,
existence, meaning and relevance before the scientific era. The search was led
by acclaimed sages among the elders of a community who defined its theories and
practices. It is later ratified and recommended for legislation and
implementation by state apparatus by convincing stratagem or coercion by
politico-religious leaders. Thereafter, it is fine-tuned and administered by
ordained priests and priestesses who hand it down along ancestral lineages from
one generation of lukewarm adherents, fanatics and mystics to another.
Gradually, strong personalities emerge claiming divine appointment and so pull
strong followers who idolise them as role models with supernatural powers. This
obsession confirms them as beacons of adulation and finally leads to full-scale
idolatry.
Inspect my other definition of the same concept that is more
existential.
Religion, which is superstition sanctioned by the state, is actually an
addiction to man-made doctrines and dogmas invented, patented and copyrighted
by a few demagogues.
· It
enslaves the mind more than psychoactive drugs,
· Benumbs
human creativity and resourcefulness thereby
· Restricting
the development of the human potential and capital.
It is the main cause of poverty of the mind and underdevelopment of
third world countries as its side-effects are indolence, redundancy, laziness
and dependence of finished products and services. In the final analysis, it is
the predisposing factor to lack of initiative, debilitating ignorance, fetish
belief-systems, abject poverty and perennial ill-health.
Perhaps it’s only advantage is that it makes the polity docile and
amenable to the whims and caprices of their oppressive leaders. Often, it
hoodwinks its adherents into believing that ‘The God’ or ‘the gods’ they
worship speak to them through the voices of their egocentric clerics who
therefore can conveniently exploit them to satisfy their demonic desires of
sensual pleasure and inordinate ambitions of amassing wealth. Their wanton
indulgence in gluttony, wine and women is seen in every action and definitely
this is the foolproof evidence of their demonic genealogy.
Rev. Prof. J. J. Kenez,
The Vessel of the Holy Spirit of God, the Creator of the Universe
International Animator of Integrational Spiritan Movement (ISM)
Composed from 11th March 1990 to Monday 30/08/2010 @
02:08:28 HRS GMT.
I once met three philosophers arguing about the nature of God. The
Christian theologian among them insisted on the Trinitarian doctrine, the
Oriental Christian emphasised that the Holy Spirit proceeded only from the
Father whereas the Roman Christian argued that the Holy Spirit proceeded from
both the Father and the Son! I laughed at them. They got angry. In unison, they
demanded to know why I was laughing them to scorn. I said,“Why not bother
yourselves about the things in the world that you can comprehend? Leave God
alone!” One of them interjected, “Why do you say that,
are you wiser than the Holy Church fathers and the great theologians that
handed down these doctrines?”
“Thank you very much for being truthful. You just called them
‘doctrines’ and that’s exactly what they are! You can’t arrive at any
meaningful conclusion in your argument since all we can ever know or say about
him is, “God exists!” And what that really means is this: “God is the Almighty
Being that created everything that exists in the universe. Anything else
anybody says or we say is puerile, futile and simply mundane guesswork!” I
concluded.
In I S M we do not theorise about what we have no existential answers
that can satisfy human reasoning! We limit ourselves to provable and rational
concepts, no mysteries, no dogmas and no doctrines. You are very welcome to
disproving anything we posit, provided you can defend your position
convincingly and carry along seventy-five per cent of humankind. We are okay!
I S M is on a rescue mission to liberate those who desire
independence from the shackles of dogmatism and indoctrination, ISM only
requires those who are willing and rational enough to think for themselves to
apply simple logic and arrive at certain basic universal truths devoid of
intellectual enslavements. Double-faced Christians now abound everywhere; they
worship Satan at night and come to church on Sundays! This lifestyle has eroded
the credentials of our forebears! There is now, an urgent need to redeem our
children from these nefarious practices! We must revert to the legacies of our
renowned grandfathers, improve on it and bequeath the next generation a better
religious legacy than we had!
The theory and practice of Kenezianism started in 1970, at the end of
the civil war when its originator Major Kenechukwu Nzeogwu Mbaezue; BA/ 6532,
of the Degema Strike Force, 12th Commando Brigade, Biafra, returned from the
war front! He felt shattered by the final outcome of the fratricidal debacle of
three years. “Why did we lose the war of survival? Should Nigeria the
aggressor defeat us the victims of their cruel and premeditated pogroms? Of
what use were the prayers to a god that never answered us? Or did our leaders
commit unpardonable war crimes or indulge in sacrilegious absurdities? Is
the Muslim religion more authentic and reliable than Christianity? If yes, then
let us join them and go on pilgrimages to Mecca!”
Finding answers to these existential questions drove the young war
veteran crazy. He could not comprehend how an unjust war ended in favour of the
aggressors. For him it meant that we wasted all our time and youthfulness in
the war fronts praying to the God of Christians! He truly deserved veritable
explanations! He withdrew from all religious engagement for a period of ten
consecutive years, from 1970 to 1980. That gave him enough time to reflect on
some existential questions about all he had learnt from the Christian missionaries
that moulded his early life in the junior and senior seminaries.
There arose the need for him to re-evaluate his belief system, moderate
his scrupulous orientation to social life and thereafter, formulate a realistic
code of conduct that could guarantee his survival in the conflicting world of
the Nigerian society he found himself trapped in! He lived as a war captive for
the next 30 years! Within this period, he fully practised the introverted
meditative lifestyle of Viktor Frankl or that detached life of a research
scientist reminiscent of the great Austrian monk geneticist, Macgregor Mendel.
1. Read the KENEZIAN
CREED and see for yourself whether the truths catalogued there apply to all
beings on planet earth.
2. Study DR KENEZ
LETTER TO TEACHERS OF HIS CHILDREN and evaluate the universality of the ethics
enshrined in the stanzas.
3. Meditate on each
stanza of the ANIMATOR’S UNIVERSAL PRAYER and see the depth of humility and
devotion therein.
4. Rationalise the
contents of TEN FOUNDATION VERSES OF THE ANIMATOR OF INTEGRATIONAL SPIRITAN
MOVEMENT and gain sublime and metapyhsical wisdom.
5. Finally, analyse
the principles of equality of all races of mankind contained in HARMONISATION
OF YOUTH SOCIALISATION;
IF YOU DESIRE TO BE ONE OF THE FOUNDATION MEMBERS OF A CONSORTIUM POISED
TO ENTHRONE ONE GLOBAL PEACE IN OUR GLOBAL VILLAGE , FILL THE FORM &
JOIN US.
If these inspired treatises do not eventually open your eyes to the
futility of racial discriminations and the ethnocentric bigotry embedded in
dogmatic religions, then you are lost to both natural and divine knowledge
accessible by individual thought, altruistic deductions and clear
rationalisations. You are either a yahoo, a moron a fanatic or a misguided
mystic!

Realists metamorphose into disciples of I S M
Reality is something out there, obeying the laws of creation, regardless
of our approval and belief. Research is the main tool for natural scientists.
He collects data, analyses them employing both deductive and inductive
reasoning. A realist recognises that facts are obstinate. We cannot wish facts
away! They always refuse to quit. If one thrusts one’s finger into a flame it
will burn. If one eats rotten food, he is sure of having a running stomach that
needs medical intervention. The treatment is not dependent of the social status
of the patient! Water gives life but can also kill when taken more than the
lungs can cope with. Water does not pity a drowning man; tall or short, rich or
poor, male or female, young or aged. If you do not know how to float you die
inside too much water! That is the nature of objects in the world, regardless
of who knows or is ignorant of them.
Kenezians and natural scientists know that Metaphysics is concerned with
the study of reality which is perceived differently by the idealists, realists,
pragmatists and existentialists. Philosophers discuss the nature of the
existence of reality, the beings we share the universe with, the mortal man and
his destiny, the natural and supernatural entities he theorises of, and the
purpose of all the other living and non-living things he observes competing
with him in the eternal survival of the fittest till his time on planet
expires! Positivism is a claim that scientific laws and facts control physical,
human behaviour, actions and emotions. Positivism ended the dogmatism and
negativism of religionists and the assumptions and speculations of philosophy.
Once you accept this ‘modus operandi’ you have arrived and you are welcome to the
base of INTEGRATIONAL SPIRITAN MOVEMENT. It is the tool for globalisation of
the true allegiance, loyalty and worship of the Almighty Creator of us all!
THAT IS THE ONLY QUALIFICATION YOU NEED TO REGISTER AS A FOUNDATION
MEMBER OF THE TRUE CRUSADERS FOR GLOBAL PEACE.

Rational knowledge can be classified into three
major parts: the principle of exclude middle; the principle of
non-contradiction and the principle of identity. The principle of excluded
middle states that one whole cannot be put into fraction and still exists
properly. No statement can be half true or false. It is either true or false.
The principle of non-contradiction maintains that a thing cannot be that thing
and the opposite at the same time. For instance, Angelina is a woman, she is just
a woman and can never be a man. The principle of identity claims that one thing
is one and not more than one at the same time. If something is true or false,
it is true or false. Thus, we can vividly and logically assert that all men are
mortal and Joseph is a man and conclude that Joseph who is a man is mortal.

A KENEZIAN EPILOGUE FOR ENTHRONING A GLOBAL PEACE
DR KENEZ SUMMATION OF FAITH FROM PREVIOUS RELIGIONS THAT CAN ENTHRONE REAL PEACE FOR CITIZENS OF THE GLOBAL VILLAGE
There is one supreme eternal reality; the truth; imminent in all things; creator of all things; immanent in creation. Without fear and without hatred; not subject to time; beyond birth and death; self-revealing. This Eternal Reality is known only by the Divine Revelations from His Grace.
Faith is ultimately the acceptance of the divine authority of the Omnipotent and Omniscient Almighty Creator of the universe we share with all the other beings he has made; micro/macrocosms, living and non-living beings that regularly obey the natural and eternal laws he embedded in his creations for our mutual benefits.
----Rev. Prof. J. J. Kenez (1999)
By faith is meant, first, conscious knowledge, and second, the practice of good deeds. "Know, therefore, that only the LORD your Creator is the Ultimate Reality, the Absolute Truth. Only he is the steadfast Godhead who keeps His gracious covenant to the all who believe and trust in his everlasting love and fatherly care for beings, seen and unseen to the tens, hundreds and thousandth generations of those who love Him and keep His commandments."Hence, recognizing and affirming that this One Almighty Creator of the entire Universe is our Father/Mother and therefore, only to this Creator is total worship due. Our corporate willingness, commitment and submission to this One Creator that exists guarantees all that are alive sustenance, and to His prescriptions for living in accordance with his ordained eternal and natural laws is surely the only assurance of living a good life assured to anyone who (1) believes in Him, and (2) believes in the Last Day, and (3) leads a righteous life, will receive their recompense from the Lord. They have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve."

Faith in Buddhism centres on the understanding that the Buddha is an Awakened being, on his superior role as teacher, in the truth of his Dharma (spiritual teachings), and in his Sangha (community of spiritually developed followers).
In the teachings, saddhā is often described as:
• a conviction that something is
• a determination to accomplish one's goals
• a sense of joy deriving from the other two spiritual teachings and in community of spiritually developed followers.
As a counter to any form of "blind faith", the Buddha's teachings included those included in the Kalama Sutra,exhorting his disciples to investigate any teaching and to live by what is learnt and accepted, rather than believing in something simply because it is taught.
Meher Baba described three types of faith, emphasizing the importance of faith in a spiritual master:
"One of the most important qualifications for the aspirant is faith. There are three kinds of faith: (i) faith in oneself, (ii) faith in the Master and (iii) faith in life. Faith is so indispensable to life that unless it is present in some degree, life itself would be impossible. It is because of faith that cooperative and social life becomes possible. It is faith in each other that facilitates a free give and take of love, a free sharing of work and its results.
When life is burdened with unjustified fear of one another it becomes cramped and restricted....Faith in the Master becomes all-important because it nourishes and sustains faith in oneself and faith in life in the very teeth of set-backs and failures, handicaps and difficulties, limitations and failings. Life, as man knows it in himself, or in most of his fellow-men, may be narrow, twisted and perverse, but life as he sees it in the Master is unlimited, pure and untainted. In the Master, man sees his own ideal realised; the Master is what his own deeper self would rather be. He sees in the Master the reflection of the best in himself which is yet to be, but which he will surely one day attain. Faith in the Master therefore becomes the chief motive-power for realising the divinity which is latent in man."
Bertrand Russell noted, "Where there is evidence, no one speaks of 'faith'. We do not speak of faith that two and two are four or that the earth is round. We only speak of faith when we wish to substitute emotion for evidence."
Kenez Danmbaezue observes; “ The only truthful thing anyone can say about the Almighty and Benevolent Creator known in many cultures and languages by a variety of names is; AN INTELLIGENT SUPERNATURAL BEING EXISTS WHO CREATED ALL WE CAN EVER SEE, THINK AND FEEL! Any other statement we make about this Ultimate Reality, Absolute Truth that is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent being is mere guesswork that only feeds doctrine and dogmas!
