>>12145096I hate imaginary gods misleading the people of the world for thousands of years. You know what would happen if we embraced a moral and enlightened humanist movement and shook off religions once and for all? Progress. Actual progress.
Golden rule in personal relationships.
Golden rule in economics.
Golden rule in banking.
Golden rule in local/state/federal gov't.
Golden rule in war on drugs.
The problem is that there are those that will never play ball. They will either fight you outright, or plan and infiltrate over days/weeks/months/years/decades. Race is used to divide us. Gender is used to divide us. Class is used to divide us. Religion is used to divide us. God is truth. God is light. God is unity. I'm not talking "Judeo-Christian", or Buddha, or Gita, or Zen, or the thousands of other Gods before/after all of them. I'm talking the concept of the nature of the one true God; which is TRUTH.
You don't need an instruction manual to be a good person. You may need to be reminded of it from time to time, but that's not what a Bible is needed for. What's needed is a willingness to seek the truth and do what's right in a world that actually fosters that type of reality. This world does NOT foster truth-seeking and righteous behavior. If it did, we wouldn't even be having these conversations.
This world fosters bad behavior because we've allowed those that reward it to continue on with their con. We've allowed it by participating in it through pop culture, tv, movies, music, pornography, social media, and how these things are used to divide us.
