No need to bother about all this anarchism lark, this guy has it figured out.
He's even got a special page scientifically proving how near we are to armageddon (in case you're wondering, the answer is 156).

There was a documentary on the other week with Tony Robinson called The Doomsday Code (shameless cash in of the Da Vinci Code, even though there is no code). It was about the apocalyptic side of Christian fundamentalism, and how they are actually trying to bring about the apocalypse. They showed how fundies are funding (pun intended) the illlegal settlements in the West Bank, because they believe the apocalypse will only come once the Jews have all of "their" land. Also, they interviewed the raptureready people. It was quite good, and they might show it again on More 4, and I give it 4 and a half out of 5 chocolate stars of truth:

Jef would have known what I meant. And he would have told you if he wasn't off galavanting around the fjords in France or wherever the hell he is.

Most evangelists agree that about 85% of those who pray to receive Christ drift back into the ways of the world, believing they are saved because they recited a prayer. What a horrible deception and tragic end for those who were never really born again!

In order to become a militant of the ICC, you also have to have the ability to integrate yourself into a collective framework, to bring solidarity between comrades to life and to banish petty bourgeois individualism, which is expressed in the spirit of competition, jealousy or rivalry

Church leadership [the vanguard party] must return to TEACHING the basic truths about salvation and victorious living [the heights of the class's historical consciousness]. These truths will give the church body [party] (and those who join the body [militants]) the vision with which to live in victory ... uphold the brethren [historically correct party line], and evangelize the lost [non-party members]

That'd be cos file sharing is against the word of Christ. Mind you, an increase in immoral activity will spur on the rapture. It's a tough call.

Yeah, I think this new attack on the icc is unfair. The end of capitalism has got to be a bit messianic, or you can't say they'll be no more war. Which would be a bit shite.
Iirc, a war to end war, is a messianic war. Makes you think...

That's pretty much how the Gospel today would be told:
1. Jesus feeds the five thousand
2. Lawyers for the producer of the original fish notify Jesus that said fish was genetically modified with monkey DNA to be 3,2% juicier (the so-called "deliciousness helix" discovered by the man with the yellow hat) and he has therefore violated their patent rights by making unauthorized reproductions.
3. In an attempt at appealing to the public, Jesus signs rights to have civil trial brought before Judge Judy. It does not go well, and when Jesus begins to interrupt her to explain a misunderstanding, Judy yells at Jesus for ten minutes and decides in favour of the plaintiff with no further deliberation.
4. In order to avoid the constant calls from debt collectors, Jesus has his telephone disconnected and uses a prepaid mobile whose number he "never ever gives out to anybody;" job at video rental store leads to meaningless supervisory promotion in twenty years, despite continued lack of respect from teenage coworkers.
5. To the shock of himself and the Catholic Church, shortly before his death at the age of 75 Jesus discovers he does indeed have fully working reproductive and gastrointestinal systems. Joyously takes his first shit and dies from complications arising thereafter. Death is recorded inadvertantly on roommate's digital camera; roommate discovers it and uploads to youtube.com, where it becomes second-most popular video after "kitten falls asleep standing up #28"
