Theocracy or Idiocracy. Are They The Same? Delusion is Dangerous
Embracing Diversity is Key to Peace in Humanity
Religious prejudices
Does it belong in politics? (no)
Should it be banned from public influence? (yes)
Should it be banned from public view? (yes)
Humanity is definitely more harmed than helped, by religious influences in our global society.
- Blind Theocracy is "idiocracy" at its best.
- Followed with poetry to quell the unrest.
- The Legacy of Hatred and the Legacy of Love.
- Which was born of Mankind, which from above?
First a few definitions for your better understanding:
- Theocracy: The government of a state by immediate divine guidance, or by officials who are regarded as 'divinely' guided. (In other words ruled by religion)
- Theology: A study of the 'THEORY' of religion.
- Theory: Abstract thought; SPECULATION; A belief, policy, or procedure, proposed or followed, as the basis for action. An ideal (perception of perfection), or hypothetical set of facts, principles, or circumstances.
- Idiocy: An extreme mental retardation (limitation) commonly due to incomplete, or abnormal, development of the brain. Something notably stupid or foolish. I also call this "idiocracy" - a government run by idiots.
It is said that "ALL religions are based on theoretically justifiable beliefs". What?
This statement is, in itself, an oxymoron.
Emerging Theories
Over the centuries there have been a multitude of "Theories" that have been proven to be inaccurate {just plain wrong}.
Theories that range from the world being flat, to the universe being infinite and eternal.
Now, a new theory emerges:
multiple universes that are finite (having definite, or definable, limits); and no more 'big bang' theory; or to be more precise: 'multiple big bangs' that created multiple universes simultaneously.
Why then does mankind cling to the current "theoretical" religious beliefs that are unproven - and will not, and cannot, ever be proven?
What drives, or fuels, this insatiable fear of a God that is only a theoretical entity conceived some where in history, and time, by an unknown person, for unknown reasons.
(Actually the reasons are known: its inception was an attempt to explain the unexplainable which later morphed into a weapon of mass control).
- Defining Values - A Moral dilemma.Who should decide what is right and what is wrong?
We all have personal definitions of "morals" and "values", based on what we were taught, not what is right, logical, or best for every person.
- The dumbing down of America by Texas standards - downgrading education
We are lost to rule by the irrational, wealthy, powerful and self serving few. Are those people really in the minority? Is democracy beyond retrieval?
A personal challenge
I will personally challenge the most 'learned' and 'intelligent' human to prove to me that their 'theory' is truth.
It cannot be done.
There is absolutely no empirical proof of the evidence of God, as man worships 'him' (meaning a single entity given the gender of masculinity to presume a 'fatherly' figure).
Therefore, this theory cannot be empirically substantiated.
There is NO phyletically proven descent through historical time, of one set of theoretical beliefs that have withstood the ravages of time in its entirety.
Even the oldest of known religions have 'evolved' in some form, or fashion.
{Phyletic: of, or relating to, evolutionary change in a single line of descent without branching}.
The arguments used as evidentiary proof are speculative, or strictly circumstantial, at best. (Theoretical rather than demonstrable). See my hub: 'the sheep mentality' before you attempt to argue this point.
We cannot, or must not, impose "justification" by forcing illiteracy onto the masses by governmental or religious mandate.
Thwarting education is unacceptable, inexcusable and unjustifiable by ANY entity of authority, be it government or religion.
Illiteracy:
showing, or marked by, a lack of acquaintance with fundamentals of a particular field of knowledge (ignorance). {With the "proven theory" that ignorant people are more easily manipulated than their educated and more intelligent counterparts as the basis for lowering educational requirements in this country}.
This 'proven theory' is the basic justification for the USA now being 47th in the world in respect to higher education.
Quite an accomplishment for those in power, wouldn't you say?
What do we want controlling society? Love or Hatred?
- HATRED, The Truth about the Lies. Voting on "EQUAL" rights? A Political Quagmire.
The origins of hatred, bigotry, and intolerance. A product of mankind alone.
Summary in poetic formats
THE LEGACY OF HATRED:
Changing your reality for the sake of your sanity
is not the same as living in a fantasy.
Being a nonconformist is not a crime.
Nothing, or no one, can stop the flow of time.
No one is perfect, everyone is perfect; an oxymoron.
Man has always feared what he does not understand.
Questioning our religion is not an act of roguery
It is an exercise is learning to face life's reality.
Before healing of the soul can be realized,
the legacy of theological hatred must be exorcised.
THE LEGACY OF LOVE:
Love is a gift of lifetime endurance,
with the wonderful side effect of acceptance.
The embracing of peaceful joy and harmony
can lift your spirit to a gloriously new vitality
of hope, tenderness, admiration; a new discern
for unselfish, loyal, and benevolent concern.
Learn from observing a love bug's only existence
of an entire lifetime of unbridled persistence.
Love is the answer, a gift from above.
Deny ourselves, but never deny others, this legacy of love.

- Love Is All There Is - Love Knows No Boundaries.
Love is the answer to all worldly woes. When we judge the love of others, are we really judging ourselves? Who has the legal, or moral, right to chose who someone else will love?
Delusion is dangerous.
A lack of belief in Gods
