I was waiting in line in front of the magazine kiosk at the Whole Foods inside the new Time-Warner Center when I noticed Jane Fonda on the cover of the latest issue of Ms. Magazine.

The headline advertised a Q&A interview about her religious beliefs among other things, so I quick picked up a copy and tried to scan the story.

The line was moving so fast, though, I had to put the magazine back. I then made a point of going to the magazine rack of Borders Books and sitting down with the article, pen and notepad in hand.

What a true phony Fonda turns out to be. She makes you want to puke.

She fully accepts the title of “born-again Christian” and then goes on to say the most ridiculous stuff like, “Of course, if we’re told for 2,000 years God is a male, we’ll believe it. But the sacred Goddess was worshipped for thousands of years before that!”

When the interviewer said to Fonda, “Lots of feminists today are involved with Wicca and neo-paganism,” Fonda didn’t flinch and, instead, responded in the most endorsing manner, “Some early Christians viewed divinity as a mother/father dyad. I think that’s what feminism is really about: reclaiming the divine balance. We need to reach beyond the false idol of an earlier consciousness—God as male—to the true incarnation in each of us: our creative potential. I’m now reading ‘The Gospel of Thomas,’ purportedly 114 sayings of Jesus. One is: ‘When man becomes woman and woman becomes man, and there is neither man nor woman, you will enter the kingdom of heaven.’ Some may ponder, ‘What does that mean?’ We know what that means!”

In a Mother’s Day sermon my pastor gave last year, he mentioned that there was a growing movement today to de-genderize and neutralize the Deity of the Godhead with

“father-god” and “mother-god” stuff, representing our culture’s descent into pagan darkness.

“In the Bible, every time you see God presented as a woman, it’s a bad deal,” says Richard Jordan, pastor of Shorewood Bible Church, Rolling Meadows, Ill. “Jeremiah 44:18 says they ‘left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven.’ You read that and you say, ‘How’d she get in there?’ It’s an ancient pagan goddess and it isn’t anything brand-new or especially compelling. In fact, the concept of God as mother is an ancient tradition in many religions. In Hinduism, they call her Kali.”

As I’ve written about Kali before on this site, she is said to embody all fear, is defined by blackness and destruction, and feeds on death and required blood sacrifices. The severed head she holds in idol representations is said to hold the fate of all the living. Her garland of skulls is meant to show the inseparableness of life and death.

Any peripheral examination of goddesses in Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Nordic mythology, instantly shows their intrinsic connection to the demonic influence of Satan.

Look at this passage from a generic Barnes & Noble-published $6.98 educational book I have on mythology, called “Greek and Roman Myth”:

“Ancient legend told how Isis (Egyptian goddess whose cult spread across the Mediterranean) scoured Egypt to collect the pieces of her brother Osiris’s body after he had been dismembered by their evil brother Seth. Magically restored and revived, Osiris descended into the Underworld to rule the kingdom of the dead. The Greeks knew of the legend as early as the fifth century BC. They saw parallels between the story and that of their nature goddess Demeter, who could not rest until her daughter Persephone was rescued from the Underworld, after she was kidnapped by Hades, its god, who wanted her for a wife.”

Hades, regarded as king of the Underworld, is said to have had as his companion the popular goddess Hecate, who was associated with ghosts, black magic and crossroads.

Another book passage tells of the goddess Night who “gave birth to many of the evils that cloud the lives of gods and humans, including Doom, Death, Misery, Resentment, Deceit and Strife; Strife herself went on to give birth to further afflictions, such as Murder, Carnage, Battle and Lawlessness.”

Indeed, Homer, the Greek epic poet credited with writing the Iliad, has in his account of creation how a goddess, taking the form of a dove, lays a huge egg fertilized by her partner, a giant serpent. “Everything in the universe hatched from this primal egg," Homer explains. As we all well-know, Satan appears as a serpent to deceive Eve in the Garden of Eden.

Of course, this goddess stuff is rampant all through pagan history. With the recent Winter Olympics in Turin, everyone was reminded by the media of the Olympics’ pagan roots, and the site at which the original Olympic Games were staged was actually “centered on a grove once sacred to the venerable Earth goddess Gaia that at some unknown period had become a cult center for Zeus, chief of the Olympian deities,” says the Barnes & Noble book.

Gaia is the one who married her son Uranus—something considered a sacred marriage bringing together Earth and Heavens.

“The union between Gaia and Uranus was not viewed as improper in any way, despite the fact that Gaia was Uranus’ mother,” reports the Barnes & Noble book. “Two of their children would also marry each other, as would two of their grandchildren. With these marriages began a tradition that gods could break the taboo of incest, which for humans was inviolable. . . Later Gaia, on her own or by various lovers, bore many other children. Most of those were also monsters, but not all. For example, one of her daughters was the lovely wood nymph Daphne.”

In the Ms. Magazine article, there’s this admiring of Fonda’s “painfully candid” memoir from last year, to which Fonda replies, “There were interviewers assuming I’d had a ghostwriter. When they learned I wrote it, they said, ‘How could you have been so honest?’ ”

Any true Christian can see the obvious deceit and self-delusion behind Fonda’s take on what it means to be a Believer in Jesus Christ.

One of the many huge, huge tip-offs in the article is what Fonda has to say about her failed attempt at taking the Bible literally in Bible study with the Christian friend who introduced her to Christ:

“It was like someone drilled a hole in me,” Fonda says. “I could feel the reverence seeping out, my soul deflating. I thought, ‘This is not working, it’s a big mistake.’ I felt surprisingly bereft.”

She completely reveals her alignment with Satan’s lie program--which at its heart says humans are to craft God in their own image--with this revelation, “All I know is that when I began to talk to people from the core of my being—admittedly, hard as it was at first, that I’m a Christian, but then defining what that means, personally, to me—I can feel a shift, hearts opening. We’re not doing that enough as a movement, so the Right co-opts those feelings, pollutes them.”

As I used to like to say to people, “Something smells rotten in the state of Denmark,” and it’s Fonda’s testimony as the so-called “born-again Christian” out to save us from “pollution.”

Unfortunately, she’s obviously on the march for converts.
