[Mb-civic] Cheating On God With Organized Religion

Cheesburger Double Whopper,

When you're on, you're on.

You wrote:
"If there *is* a GOOD "God", then there remains simply you, God, and 
your soul."

You have a definite and unique way of excercising your frontal lobe. Perhaps, you can write a 20 pager, pdf file and I'll help you sell it for a small cut.

CAll it "GOOD GOD; YOU AND YOUR SOUL"!

Cheating On God With Organized Religion


Ok, we've all seen what Organized Religion is capable of doing in 
War.  It's not pretty.  From the Crusades to Modern America, twisted dead 
bodies, eyeballs hanging out, children cut in half staring at nothing 
anymore, and the loudspeakers blaring century after century "We are 
protecting our right to Worship Our God and Remain Free, Real Estate, Oil 
and Other Commodities we might capture are simply incidental, keep 
shooting, God is *only* on OUR side."

It's kind of funny when you realize that each side that is shooting, 
century after century, has been shovelling the same Propaganda to their 
citizenry like it was going out of style.

Ah, so they do have something in common after all.

Which brings us to the origins of Organized Religion.

If you're really sitting there in your easy chair, century after century, 
seriously believing that a GOOD God would have possibly have taken the time 
to dictate or write down in a book all of the many detailed "rules and 
regulations" of various Organized Religions around the Earth, you're most 
likely just another duped customer, just like most everyone else.

You might ask someone to prove that Organized Religion did *not* emanate 
from a GOOD "God", but then again, oops, you cannot prove that it *did* 
even if your butt was on fire.

Go ahead, we'll wait, set your butt on fire and run around in circles 
shouting all the dogma and indoctrinations you've been steeped in forever 
trying to prove *any* God created *any* Organized Religion *anywhere* on 
the planet Earth.

You can't.

You can't prove it mathematically or any other way.  And don't run around 
shouting that you can prove it with your "faith", for Faith as far as 
"proving" anything, remains nothing more than a roll of the dice on the 
craps table.

Any GOOD God did *not* sit around dictating stuff like "Ok, now you group 
wear the purple robes, you were the yellow robes, make that part there 4 
millimeters long, that part there should swivel to the left and be 
encrusted in gold, amethyst, and diamonds, if you catch a dog mating with a 
sheep cut it's left ear with a knife, take the blood, mix it with chicken 
goop, and burn it on the altar on Tuesday at 2pm on the 4th month after the 
3rd full moon, then I will come and give all your old women babies who have 
been good..."

Pure crap.

Men wrote that shit.

God had nothing to do with both writing it nor creating the organizations 
that formed around it century after century.

And the men turned it into both a tool and a weapon to serve their own 
personal desires.

Oh, wait a second, men have religious organizations within their organized 
religions to excommunicate, banish, blackball etc people who talk like that.

If an actual *real* GOOD God really exists, his "Ways" have been obscured, 
diluted, and transposed into something even he wouldn't recognize long long 
long ago by people who like to keep other people as sheep and screw them 
out of all the valuables they possess including their time, effort and very 
souls.

Let's make no mistake, however, "Organized Religion", no matter which 
Religion it represents and entangles, has become a definite power to 
contend with.

It has seeped into everything from mass communication to politics to 
education to football games to excuses for mass murder and genocide to your 
bedroom.

And shows no indication of slowing down its momentum of lust for power over 
everything, including everything on planet Earth.

That so many people are so brainwashed, indoctrinated and steeped in the 
dogmas of their individual "Organized Religions" remains no surprise.

It usually takes more than a couple of days to teach a dog how to shake 
hands.  But once it's learned how, it will push out its paw like clockwork 
without question every time its master commands.

It has taken centuries and centuries to train mankind into barking and 
biting and killing any other being, act or semblance of any other 
"Organized Religion" other than their own.

And the most of them, for the most part, do it without question.

And if a real GOOD God actually exists somewhere, he is sitting there right 
now scratching his head watching it all going "What the fuck.....!!!!".

If you are sitting around today and a member of any Organized Religion on 
Earth with a book full of words you were handed as a child and possibly 
still carry around with you or read on a regular basis, and you swear up 
and down that "God" created those words in those books, you're basically 
not that bright.

Actually, you ARE very bright most likely.  So is the dog who pushes out 
his paw each time he is commanded.

It's just that both of you have been trained to respond to various 
commands, and neither of you questions, for an instant, that "God" didn't 
have anything to do with any of it to begin with.

In all probability, any form of "Organized Religion" was and probably still 
remains one of the farthest things from God's agenda to create, sustain, 
and perpetuate on Earth.

If for only one second you could step down from your collective pedestals 
of "faith" and consider that as reality, you would for at least a tiny 
moment glimpse the tyranny of the fantasy world that you have been twisted 
into without one real word from "God" to guide you in even the slightest 
direction toward "Organized Religion".

It has been and remains nothing short of a scam.

If there *is* a GOOD "God", then there remains simply you, God, and your soul.

Nothing more, nothing less, nothing else.

Everything else is bullshit.

That men have suckered you into actually cheating "God" from his just due 
by indoctrinating and entwining you into their own control-freaking 
concepts of "organized worship" is not the illusion.

It is almost everything you have been taught up to this moment that remains 
the trap.

But you just can't let go of it.  You can't work your way out of it.  It's 
become nothing more than a favorite piece of clothing you like to wear each 
day.

You've been bamboozled, for centuries.  By men.

But you'd rather sit there and cheat God rather than admit that Organized 
Religion, and most of the words that accompany it, were written by Men, and 
that God had MUCH better things to do than to sit on top of a mountain, on 
a cloud, or in the ether, and dictate the measurements for temples, the 
colors of robes, the amounts of gold etc that should be deposited to the 
high priests by the populations or what you should do with gay people if 
you catch them doing the nasty under the haystack etc.

And you wear that piece of clothing proudly every day and display it like 
the world was coming to an end, and defend it with your life, and the lives 
of people you not only will never meet but don't even know exist.

A badge of stupidity.

Originated from centuries of indoctrination.

 From *Men*.

To control you like the bleating sheep you remain, professing YOUR ways to 
be the chief of them all from every mountain top that will bear you and the 
heavy weight you tote to proclaim all your rightness to everyone you meet 
which you have been taught as you hold out your paw upon command.

Go ahead, cheat God all you want, exchange him and your soul for whatever 
words you hold in some book in your hand written by Men, do whatever you want.

I'm all out of Alpo today.




Cheeseburger

- And God said "Cheeseburger, go forth, smite those stupid people with your 
keyboard, wake them up, shake them from their illusions, delusions, 
brainwashings, indoctrinations, and all the lies, bring them back into 
reality, away from being simple dupes of ruthless Men century after 
century".  And Cheeseburger rolled over in his bed, yawned, and said "Oh, 
man, do I have to..?  It's New Year's Day, God..."  And God said "Go into 
the bathroom, Cheeseburger.  Behold.  Have I not given you toothpaste, a 
toothbrush, and soap with which to wash now and then..?"  And Cheeseburger 
replied "Ok, ok, ok, I get the picture..."   The rest, of course, is 
History.......
