WE
ARE WRITING THE YEAR OF 2050
The
old times are passé. A very new constitution was introduced
in the European Union in the year of 2007 prescribing a rigid separation
from state and church.
But
querolous atheists had to carry on lawsuits, till the new European
Court of Constitution in Antwerpen enjoined the church taxes in
the Federal Republic of Germany and in Austria.
An
old dream came true on the Jan., 1th 2012:
THE CHURCH TAXES WERE FINALLY ABOLISHED!
|
|
 |
But there were also excitements in the country of unlimited religions.
In
the year of 2009 the highest court condemned a catholic parish to
pay a smart money about 10 millions $ to a man who had been educated
in the belief to the devil.
This
affair became a precedent and caused a lot of following lawsuits...
|
|
 |
In order to secure her solvence the evangelical church of Germany
dropped the half of her employers.
Even
bishop Lohmann got jobless. Be he could get a place as a conductor
of the tram from Gelsenkirchen - Ueckendorf to Wattenscheid - Hoentrop
because of his good contacts to the town - major.
There
he worked three years and got later a little welfare pension.

|
The
German Railroad joint - stock company bought numerous old Christian
churches and rebuilt them into very magnific railroad - stations.
At
this photo we can see the citozens of Drensteinfurt being fond of
their new railroad - station.

Querolous Christians demonstrated in the streets for the preservation
of their old churches.
But
people didn´t like the churches any more.
At
last an arrangement was made at the European Court of Constitution
that the whole of the church proberty was to be distributed to the
people who had demanded smart - money against the church in the
year of 2020. Everyone of the 11.753.254 plaintiffs got in spite
of everything 173.558 $.
Then
the churches were finally cancelled of the official register of
trading associations.

Cardinal
Wasservogel was one of the fathers of the MOVEMENT REST - CHURCH.
In the first time the group met behind closed doors, but later the
organziation could official be allowed by the Federal Department
of Esoteric and Metaphysics.
In
the year of 2016 Cardinal Wasservogel promised in public that his
new movement was willing not to repeat the mistakes of the past
and to respect the religious - freedom in future.
|
|
 |
But
terroristic enemies of Cardinal Wasservogel reproached himto be
a traitor of the church, made a yellow attack and wrecked by bombs
the modest vacation - house of the Cardinal in Spain.
|
|
|
|
...but
the situation got from bad to worse:
Clergyman
Becker from Hessen couldn´t pay any longer the rent for his
one room social flat and therefore now he had to live in this trach
- container.
|
|
|
|
...but
people had no more pity on the churches, becauses the advantages
of the new time were significant:
The
state could save about 50 billons $ a year, because the state had
no more pay for the churches.
A
lot of state taxes were lowered, people had more money for their
private consume. Soon normal workman were able to afford sailing
boots, vacation - houses or luxury cars. The number of jobless persons
sank under one million.
Many people founded new firms from the smart money they had got
from the churches.
There
was an agreement whole over the nation: Now we are happy and satisfied
and said: We need the church as necessary as a fish an bicycle.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
But
now we want to finish our little trip to the past. Now we are return
again in the year of 2050. People are happy whole over Europe today.
Social welfare is guaranteted everywhere.
Now
and then there are some religious clubs - but they do not identify
themselves with the old state - churches, perhaps in fear of to
have to pay smart money. But a liberal society can tolerate them.
But
freedom made its way also in the former Islamic states of the Near
East. It´s astonishing that the Islamic church could better
stand the change in structure than Christianity.
There
is still remaining a lonely Website to the old MOVEMENT REST - CHURCH
of our Cardinal Wasservogel. If you like please visit the website,
the webmaster will be happy. The best greetings from me.
