Hermeneutics
It is well documented, that Christianity as a whole has been led over the past 2000 years into unknowingly following the theological methods of interpretation developed by the Greek philosopher Plato and his followers. This is amazingly enough easy to find.
“Strange times are these in which we live when old and young are taught in falsehood schools. And the one man that dares to tell the truth is called at once a lunatic and fool”(Plato)

Theology
Theology is a term compounded of two Greek words, theos (God) and logos
(rational utterance), and it might be taken to mean something like "rational utterance or discourse about god or gods". The term first appeared in Plato's Republic (Book 2, Chap. 18) with reference to poetry. According to Plato norms must be prescribed to which the poetry must conform in matters of Theology. These norms or "rules" of theology were developed by Plato as a means of corrupting the writings of Homer and the other Greek poets, for the purpose of influencing and controlling what people believe when they read. Homer wrote some things about the Olympian gods that Plato and his mentor Socrates didn't agree with. They just didn't think that a lot of what Homer said about the Greek gods, and especially Zeus himself was rational. However the Greeks thought pretty much of Homer so Socrates and Plato couldn't just say that what Homer said was wrong. Not unless they wanted to be stoned or torn limb from limb, since the Greeks considered Homer a prophet, and they considered his "poetry" as scripture.
What the Encyclopedia says is that Plato coined the word Theology for the first time to name a set of rules to which scripture must conform.
Are the Holy Scriptures supposed to conform to rules developed by a Greek philosopher?
According to Plato, these rules were to cover any story concerning any gods anywhere at any time. What other "stories" were around at the time that Plato made up all these rules? THE OLD TESTAMENT!
A major part of the Theology that Plato developed to make scripture conform to what ever He thought was rational, is called Hermeneutics. It is the infiltration of this method of study called Hermeneutics, that when applied to the scriptures in interpretation has culminated in the complete and final apostasy.
A major factor in the ability to deceive using Greek Hermeneutics is by it's application to literature, it convinces the individual reading the literature that he has come to a correct and truthful understanding of what is being said. He thinks he sees, he thinks he hears, he thinks he understands, when the exact opposite is true. He has becomes convinced in his heart that what he knows is the truth, when he is wrong.
Hermeneutics and Theology are hidden things of dishonesty that teach people how to handle words deceitfully. Remember the word Theology was coined by Plato for the first time in his book The Republic, Book 2, chapter 18, and it means “rational utterance about the God or gods.” Suppose that what the scriptures say is not rational to you. You just apply the methods of Theology and Hermeneutics and apply the rules that a Greek Philosopher came up with and you can get the scriptures to conform for you. As Plato said and Christian Theology teaches, rules must be prescribed to which ALL Scripture must conform. If there happen to be parts that don’t conform to your Theology there is a "rule" to explain why.
It can be proven that Christianity adopted this method of Theology from the Theology of Plato. There are many books on “How to study and interpret the Bible.” They may have changed the name of the "god" but the system remains the same. The reason Plato developed Theology was to corrupt the writings of Homer and other Greek poets giving him control over the religious beliefs of the people. The same method of study is taught in every Theological School today.
Theology is not a set of doctrines. Theology is an educational system that teaches rules on how to study religious literature. Most religious literature concerns history and Theology is a system on how to revise what is written without actually changing the writings themselves. It is a highly developed form of deceitful Historical Revisionism. No matter what you apply it to, its purpose is to adulterate and corrupt it.
Hermeneutics gets its name from the god Hermes. It was Hermes who was the prince of Greecia and gave the revelation of the knowledge of how to deceive with words.
Theology's greatest deception is that it has the power to make one think that he is wise and smart. It makes us think that we are like God because we think we understand God's word. However all it teaches is HOW to handle the word of God deceitfully.
Bakers Dictionary of Practical Theology has this to say about " the "science" or "art" of Hermeneutics.
The conscious setting up of rules is hermeneutics from the god Hermes, messenger of the gods, hence hermeneuein, to interpret; hermeneia interpretation, commentary; and the hermeneutic technique, the skill or art of interpretation.
Hermeneutics is both an art and a science. It is a science in that it can reduce interpretation within limits to a set of rules; it is an art in that it draws up its own story lines that are not there, using rules. Some writers have argued that the giving and taking of meaning in understanding is more art than science. But at least it is not all art and what is not art can be treated by a rule.
This book is recommended to every minister, preacher, teacher and Bible student in the Christian world, with a minimum of 49 pages defining the "art" or "science", the "RULES" of how Christians should interpret the scriptures, and this so-called "science" is called Hermeneutics after a PAGAN god. These "rules" are being applied to the Holy Scriptures.
Lying is an art and you can be taught to lie, thinking your telling the truth. There is actually a form of knowledge in how to lie. If I can get you to follow the methods of how to lie, and make you think your telling the truth that would make me very crafty. This is exactly what Theology and Hermeneutics is designed to do, it is the essence of Greek Philosophy. Hermeneutics not only teaches you how to develop a lie it teaches you how to cover it up by a "rule".
Anything that doesn't agree with what you want to prove, you cover up with a "rule". If there isn't a rule you simply make one up. This is why there have been different "schools" of interpretation developed over the years, the latest being the School of Dispensational Interpretation. The rule being that if something doesn't fit what you are trying to propound, you simply say: "This wasn’t written for this dispensation". This keeps us from reading the Old Testament, the Gospels and the book of Revelation. According to Dispensationalist the only part of the scriptures that apply to us is found in the letters of Paul. Yet even when they come to things in Paul's letters that disagree with what they are trying to promote they merely say, "Oh that was written to the Jew not the Gentiles or that has a spiritual meaning. Sometimes right in the middle of a sentence something disagrees with their doctrine and they tell you it's not written to you. This is the deceitful way in which all Theology and Hermeneutics works.
We can’t rightly divide the word of truth, with a system of literary interpretation that was specifically designed to deceive and cover up the truth. Theology was specifically designed to corrupt the writing of Homer, considered scripture and history.
Why would Plato want to corrupt the writings of Homer? That is perfectly simple, he wanted to clean up the image of the gods Homer talked about. Do you think that the Greeks worshipped and sacrificed to the gods because they loved them? Do you think they worshipped them because they were so "good"? Absolutely not, the Greek gods were beautiful yet degenerate thieves, rapists, bullies, liars, murderers, kidnappers some pretty bad guys who got men to worship them through fear of what would happen if they didn't. Homer just wrote it like he saw it, he give an account of what was actually going on at a certain point in history in that part of the world.
