FK – That or similar thinking has also led to a lot of evil. In light of current science, however politicized, no sane or intelligent person can argue for a young earth or a flat earth or a global flood, at least as it’s described in the borrowed version found in the ancient Hebrew tribal propaganda.

I see religionists lie all the time to themselves as much as to those around them, and the only reason I can figure is that they must see some societal need for their version, sub-version or subversion.

All cultures have/had a moral code of sorts. The Greek warriors thought they were doing the manly thing in taking on a young male lover who they’d also train in the art of their version of manhood.

The Spartans had a slightly different code which basically taught their young men to steal if necessary as a normal act of warfare and their girls/young women were as naked on the athletic field as the boys.

All the insanity spewing from the commie globalist propagandists is another attempt to replace one form of so-called morality with another, one that ignored real issues that most were afraid to openly discuss to one that celebrates birth defects and mental illness.

The crazies won’t be helped by the culture war or ‘Waking up is hard to do’

Let’s rearrange the deck chairs

Choosing sides

Being raised rural southern Baptist and skipping church to watch Star Trek as a teen I learned there’s more ‘hope’ in a positive future for humanity than in a sadistic bronze age god that was patterned after ancient tyrannical kings threatening its slaves with eternal torture or eternal death(a minority of subversions) for not being some primitive version of good.

The simple sad truth is the average religious dumbass couldn’t name half a dozen ‘great people’ who should be remembered for the good they did in their time here and the ones they do name would likely be fakers. They can give a truncated version of the history of some ancient desert tribe that they don’t belong to and whose priests had no conception that people would be taking their religious propaganda seriously 3000 years in the future.

The more I think about it the more absurd it sounds.

Blind faith, blind obedience, blind willful ignorance, blind patriotism are all the foundation stones of tyranny. We desperately need to raise young tool-using monkeys who are capable of independent thought, not blind adherence to a set of standards they probably don’t even understand.

Plus we’ve had a Bill of Rights for 200 years that says ‘no cruel and unusual punishment’ that was written by a set of real men who threw off the ideas of kings and royalty and blind allegiance to priests or gods or whatever else. It’s sad to horrifying that so few are capable of understanding this. It may be our downfall.

The purposes of gods and golden rules

The most important things to do

A conspiracy to indoctrinate, or “What is an education?”

What’s the ultimate question?
