Cutting Edge Ministries

Cutting Edge Ministries is a webshite based in Wagener, South Carolina promoting a delicious mixture of fundamentalist Christianity and conspiracy theories.They are not to be confused with The Cutting Edge, formerly Omega Ministries, in Medford, Oregon, or dozens of other Christian organizations with the same name. They claim to be a "fundamental independent Baptist Church outreach ministry" that believes the best way to run a ministry is to spam the internet with bullshit related to "Biblical prophecy of The New World Order".About us, cuttingedge.org. All of the site's content, including daily "news alerts", is peppered with advertisements for kookbooks and digital media from their online store. They are essentially the same as Before It's News and All News Pipeline with an emphasis on bizarre pseudo-Christian end times weirdness.
==Weird crap they believe==
If there is a conspiracy theory that can be tied to anything dealing with Christianity, the Book of Revelation, and end times eschatology, you'll find it on their webshite or in one of the many piles of junk they offer for sale. Linking UFOs and extraterrestrial beings to the arrival of the Antichrist and a sign of biblical prophecy fulfilled may seem like an elaborate joke, but apparently the people that run this site are serious.
===9/11===
Cutting Edge goes completely bonkers over 9/11 and wholeheartedly embraces all kinds of conspiracy theories related to the terrorist attacks:
The instances of the number eleven include the date of the attack; the number of the first aeroplane to hit the World Trade Center; the number of the plane which hit the Pentagon (77 - which, divided by seven, is 11); the fact that both towers were 110 stories tall; the fact that the buildings resembled an 11; the fact that one of the planes had a crew of 11, and so on.9/11/2001 Attacks Occur "By The Numbers" -- Sacred Occult Numbers. Cutting Edge Ministries.
===Harry Potter===
One of the site's main attractions is its collection of what are possibly the most thorough "Harry Potter is of Satan" articles on the net.The True Danger of Your Child Reading the Harry Potter Books. Cutting Edge Ministries. From reading the plot synopses, one gets the impression that they never actually read the books, because they are full of factual errors.Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone -- Book Review, Cutting Edge Ministries. Just read this one. They cram the entire book into one paragraph. However, the author later shows obsession with small details that indicates they at least skimmed, or are Cherry picking. The author seems particularly obsessed by colors:
Pointing to a pagan calendar tradition which associates each month with a colour, the author breathlessly declares his "MAJOR DISCOVERY" that Rowling uses the same colours in her books.
These evil colours, which "originate from the old Satanic Druid religion", include red, yellow, green, blue, orange, brown and white.
As if this wasn't absurd enough, the article also claims - without any explanation whatsoever - that green is Satan's favourite colour.Major Discovery In Harry Potter Books! Use Of Vivid Colors Now Understood And Their Mystery Unraveled. Cutting Edge Ministries. (This is presumably no relation to the Witchsmeller Pursuivant in the first Blackadder series identifying carrots as "the Devil's favourite food!")
===School shootings and the giant hexagram===
Cutting Edge found out that six of the school shootings committed over a space of two years, when marked on a map, form two rough lines: "they were planned events, not isolated, sporadic horrors", declares the site. The two lines intersect in Hope, Arkansas, but Cutting Edge admits that it sees no significance there.
Contributor Pastor Ron Riffe went on to suggest that they two lines were actually part of a hexagram, and dutifully plotted out such a shape on a map of the world. Disasters which occurred on or around the lines of this hexagram include the Venezuela floods, the Waco incident, the murder of Jonbenet Ramsey and the crashing of John F. Kennedy Jr.'s plane ("While his plane apparently did not go down right on the line, it went down close enough to it to raise one's eyebrows"). At the centre of the hexagram are the Galapagos Islands, "at which Darwin conceived his Satanic idea we now call Evolution".
What we have here is a unified conspiracy, and Cutting Edge continues down the rabbit hole by blaming it on the Illuminati:
...and they blame Bill Clinton, who they naturally assume is in cahoots with the New World Order Illuminati:
===Freemasonry===
They claim that Freemasonry is a religion infested with an "occult nature" linked with New World Order conspiracies.Freemasonry, Cutting Edge Ministries. They expose a purported letter from 2000 that says that they've been threatened that the masons will "dig up a lot of dirt" on them.Is Freemasonry Preparing A Smear Campaign Against Cutting Edge Ministries And Christian Author Ralph Epperson? Cutting Edge Ministries. They claim to have proven "beyond the shadow of a doubt" that Freemasonry is the worship of Satan.Masonry Proven Conclusively To Be Worship Of Lucifer, Satan! Cutting Edge Ministries. For added flair, they wholeheartedly embrace the Washington, D.C. street design conspiracy theory and cite it as proof that the city "was conceived as the occult center of power for Freemasonry in the United States."Freemasonry Source Confirms Our Article News1040 "masonic Symbols Of Power In Their Seat Of Power, Washington, D.c." -- That Government Center Was Created In 1792 As A Capitol Dedicated To Masonry!! Cutting Edge Ministries. For good measure, they link Freemasonry to the Knights Templar, which they claim are "satanic," and by Cutting Edge Ministries' logic, provide more proof that Freemasonry is satanic.Satanic Sources Claim Knights Templar To Be Satanic! This Is More Proof That Freemasonry Is Also Satanic. Cutting Edge Ministries.
