1) Love
[I
am the Lord your God: you shall not have strange Gods before me.]
{I am the Lord your God, who brought
you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself a graven
image, or any likeness of anything that is heaven above, or that is in the
earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down
to them or serve them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the
iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generation of
those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me
and keep my commandments.}

Love is not
jealous. The primary commandment
explicitly confirms the jealously of the Old Testament god who is understood to
be the same god who is one in the same as Jesus under the New Testament paradigm. The attempted delineation to segment the Old
and New is like a two-party system pledging loyalty but respectful disagreement
for the mutual benefit of a country where each has signed a common constitution. A flag cannot be parceled through revisionist
stitching to spare one body of congress for acquiescing to the will of the
other.
Jesus does not
provide such segmentation. Judaism does
to retain its sovereignty. Islam is a
similar game plan as Christianity syphoning Abraham-derived folklore through
the tributaries of Moses and Jesus to channel resources through a fresh voice
of Mohamed to arrive at the same goal.
Each attempts to maintain compliance with the initial commandment as the
god referenced is slightly shifted and portrayed as the original given time’s
clarification. If any member of the
triad were to explicitly state a name to god, the conceptual god would inhabit
an increased culpability of specificities beyond a name. This would fissure the foundational integrity
of the Bible and Koran and the beneficial corollaries.
Each fragment of
the pie is culpable for the poisons and nutrients in the apples. The storyline encourages such linkage. The bond carries nicely the conversion of
Jews into Christians and Christians to Muslims adding credence in the formative
years of each piggy-backed religion.
Like an evergreen tree this supplants pagan ritual by mucking the waters
to cloud definitive delineation in order to proselytize converts in the opiates
of common bond.
The limited connection
by Jews to appear inclusive of Christianity has afforded the nationless-nation,
Israel. In addition Judaism is provided
a hovering angel of protection in the form of the predominately
Christian-formed United States of America on a northern-hemisphere dominated
globe establishing the planetary definition of north as top and south as
bottom.
The biblical link of
Old and New Testament between the two does require consistent reassurance. The Vatican’s apathy and the ramrod
anti-Semitism of Nazi Germany serve as eternal reminders of how quickly
vengeance for the accused regicide of Jesus could sever the tie given political
convenience during a debt crisis. The
idea that such a human-deity’s volition to acquiesce to the prophecy of his grand
plan, rather than oppose or prevent an assassination Jesus saw coming, which makes
the death more suicide than murder, was apparently lost on or a convenient
omission in the propaganda of Hitler and Popes.
This Christian-Jewish
bond is at the crux of the divide between a Palestinian people and the various
slants of Islam. These parties hold a
confrontational two-chair game of duck-duck-goose over the three predominant
Earthly monotheisms. The ire of standing
alone is correlated with the advent of global terror. This fragmentally veils the divide behind
notions of nation to substantiate taxes as surrogate tithes for secular militaries
awash in the murky pond of crusade and jihad.
The literal
Earthly-representative of the symbolic gamed-chair is the city of Jerusalem. The consensus of Western political and religious
authorities abide for the ass cheeks of Abraham to wedge sitting room for Moses
and Jesus on a single chair rather than include the competitor-prophet
Mohammed. The planet may be better to
consolidate much of global conflict as imagining Abraham, the human
father-figure god-representative of the dominating monotheistic triad finding
favor between Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed.
This disregards
the godly histories of native North Americans down the Central American isthmus
descending through the Amazon and Andes, over to Africa, and Buddha and crew in
the Far East occurring at similar periods.
This can be seen as the dominant Meme has arbitrarily assigned Jerusalem
to be the hub of declaration for the dominant god. Therefore including these other regions and
parties to the triad of central monotheisms is deemed problematic and
burdensome. This cascades downward to
treat the humans in these lands as equally superfluous and nonessential.
This is a man-made
illusion to impose the differentiation of humans in order to divert passionate
conflict to external rather than internal fonts of authority. This is part of a greater gambit of global
domination by a centrality of forces that bear few losses in the wars
created. Births, deaths, blood, and
diseases are fleeting compared to the immortality of the Meme commanding
allegiance and with it power over volition.
The compromises to
form and counteractions to assert dissent to such allegiances are the core of
this first commandment to not have strange Gods before me. The me
is subjective and therefore a manipulative variable to be definitive or vague
when convenient to the empowered.
The underlying
belief in theism causes reflected ills in the West mirrored in Islam in the
East, which are less likely to be determined to be interconnected under a
non-specific god. To fell Islamic
terrorism in the world, humanity must fell theism and the hypocritical
depravity required to proselytize the non-empirical. A Christian or Jew decrying the ills of
militant-Islam ignores the dream-image of creed terrorizing a common planet
with a common vice of ignorant capitulation in the common Meme.

The Decalogue was
written by men. The conceptual mythology
of Moses on Sinai carrying stone tablets is mooted by the history of human
editors spanning time. This coincides
with the brevity and simplicity of the statements. The traditional iteration of the Decalogue is
a concise predictable allotment to address human conduct which is both
insufficient, a double-standard, and a glaring under-achievement if intended to
convey the communication and documentation talents of a deity.
Whatever our
longest-held verbatim account of such instructions that version is not the
original. What we see are a string of
seeds translated through oral and written history. The timing of the gospels, written long after
Jesus’ biological life, mirror such distance.
So even if under the belief of direct godly-pronouncement at the
impetus, whatever remains is a tainted derivation thereof spread by humans.
Given that
infection, the Decalogue is corrupted with social engineering on the grandest
scale. The words’ inherent link to such
a deity provides a deluge of automatic obedience amongst specific
populations. This causes those in a
position of power to appear as emissaries for and symbolic representatives of
the connoted and correlated beatitudes of the
Speaker. Therefore those advertising
such commandments independent of the logic or actual wording of such
salvation-dependent legalese could prioritize perception over reality in the
grand lesson of the fable of The Emperor
with No Close.
The primary
directive of a capitalist organism is to conquer, replicate, eliminate
competitors, expand, dominate, and avoid its self-induced extinction by
quelling internal rebellion as the risk expands with its portion of the
market. The economy of god holds an
asset greater than oil, gold, water, land, or financial currency; the market is
volition.
A complex
life-form’s free will is the crux of societal structure and how one acquires
and expends resources therein. No tool
in the history of humanity has been more effective at explicitly and implicitly
bearing weight to internal mental scales to sway the volition of man and
womankind. The arenas of eternal
salvation or perdition, miraculous pardon or wrathful punishment, karmic chains
of blessing and detriments, and superstitious ritual present a powerful
playbook for those who choose to manipulate theistic-majority societies.
If one has control
over free will resources of wealth follow.
The curtain of the Wizards of Oz becomes transparent with the
perspicuity of science. Floods,
earthquakes, plagues, caverns, and celestial bodies once used as vehicles for
the transmittal of godly ideologies are uncoupled with the empirical logic of
barometers, telescopes, and microscopes.
The advancement of time threatens the internal composition of
fundamentalism. What we see in response
is a televised-evangelicalism that consumes a palatable inclusion of science as
godly-presence rather than absence. This
is the original gamble anew.
The whitewash of
paganism (the inventors of the game) was rampant with the careful placement of
Easter, All Saints Day, Ramadan, Rosh Hashanah, Christmas, and countless
ritualistic festivals to supersede local habitual practices covering spring,
summer, fall, and winter. The adoption
of selective science in a theistic paradigm instills comfort to stem the
rebellion of the rational mind to continue obedience despite increasing
evidence to the contrary. It blurs the
vast absolute contradictions between faith and science to shadow a pool of
coexistence so that rhetoric can stand commensurate with fact.
Every day absent a
clear deity-derived apocalypse leaves monotheism on a more precarious pedestal.
The additional entropy represents potential additional doubt in the Meme, which
must be counteracted. This is in many
ways why each religion boasts knowledge and foreboding regarding the end of
days. The threat of meteors, nuclear
annihilation, or global warming to create an unsustainable human environment,
whether teleological or anthropogenic grows by the hour. The potential presence of a god is meant as a
counterweight to human wariness of such a termination. In many ways the argument regarding human
obliteration via a deity is made as a blessing.
The obedient shall find a post-organic salvation and contrarians earn perdition.
This subconscious
thorn of a meme is bed with the fundamentalism of Iran, Ireland, and America
etc. The U.S. Republican party’s
commitment to deny the realities and ramifications of global climate change and
the heating of our oceans undermines this godly-link. It is therefore rebuffed due to its threat to
the systems of global control maintaining, fueling and perpetuating the
empowered and with it the organization of society.

The ramp of global
ocean temperature coincides with the industrial revolution of the United States
and Europe ascending to dominate global wealth.
During typical diatribes and discourses on global climate change, the
end of humanity is often confused with the end of the planet. The planet’s cessation is unlikely and
deglamorizes religion’s version of the apocalypse.
Why would humanity
go extinct absent god showing his face “again,” while allowing the Earth and
the remainder of the universe to go on like we would over the splatter of a
mosquito on our windshield? Resolving
this conundrum in the subconscious mind is why a theist is so much less likely
than an atheist to recognize the severity of the problem climate change
represents. To recognize no humanity in
such a way questions the assumed existence of god. The same principle applies to asteroid
collusion.
Humanity’s demise
is doubted in the face of the empirical in preference for matters of
faith. For if humans were instructed to
base the potential inhabitability of our planet as a function of scientific
comprehension other macro level variables could also become subject to such
detailed inspection. Therefore the
science is so often denied, decried, and attacked as panic. Science diverts the show from traditional
avenues of human exploitation which have advanced the problem rather than
collective points of action with less well-established profit-opportunities
designed to reduce the problem.
In comparison the
Dalai Lama echoes the dramatic threat of climate change and urges that man has
caused that. So it is man’s issue to
resolve. Why look to god? This is in no small part correlated with the
absence of material-wealth or the gross manipulation of Earthly resources by
Buddhists to a commensurate scale as the triad of monotheisms. This is a natural evolution.
Organisms will
find a sustainable resource, whether it be the consumption of a fungus, a
geothermal vent on the ocean floor, or parasitic bacterium; memes like religion
are no different. The peaceful harmonic
observer status of Buddhism, although formed in relative Asian-Pacific
isolation compared to the Western ethos, is able to permeate the global surface
of Western dominated economies based on understanding the meme-resources left
available after the big-three have taken root.
The democratic avenue of the internet and the Dalai Lama’s numerous
web-video broadcasts represent a dramatic shift in the media-power of religious
thought, good and bad. (The Dalai Lama
still purports his holy generational spiritual linkage.)
India, after
extracting its splintered Islamic-appendix Pakistan, comingles a long-history
of Hinduism and Islam under a nation of modern make-believe. India lives in a hereditary feudal monarchy
rather than a true-democracy representing its massive throngs of Poor. India has mystified itself with notions of
computer assistance and call centers prancing under the ballyhoo of Bollywood
trailing with mismanagement by the upper-remnants of castes with a mirage of
parliament scions uttering in the tongue of semi-expelled imperialists.
The once British
colony has yet to evolve through the anti-Meme-part of Gandhi as India is still
a buffet of malnutrition. America
struggles with obesity as America similarly still has yet to understand the
anti-Meme in some of Martin Luther King’s words. Memes of India’s polytheism and karmic
internal blame to rationalize wealth and blight for the choices of ancestors
pour forth directly from a key meme akin to the first commandment which is a
centrality in a parallel karmic-infused theism.
Christianity and
Catholicism spread like cannabis plants throughout South and Central America
with Spanish domination plowing through “pagan” lands harvesting gold and
plants. What remains are natural
resource farms for the northern hemisphere and squalors of dependent poverty
where elements like basic water rights are sold by governments to private
entities who exploit citizens in the return bill. The sun, the land, the cocaine, the
marijuana, the oil, the produce, the coffee, and the sugarcane are all
saleable.
The influx of
cheap migrant workers engaged in a modern form of civilized slavery have built
over half the roofs in Texas and picked flat after flat of strawberries in
California. In return immigration reform
is protested as the ‘criminals’ are the humans hiding in cargo containers to
slip past armed wall-watchers. The
battle is really about farms and corporations keeping cheap labor and the veil
of anarchy swarming the gate in drug-towns like Juarez. This is the same as Charleston resisting
ending slavery and the garnered profits or San Paulo being the last to cease
slavery in the Western Hemisphere in 1888.
The Poor refrain
from revolution behind the promises of Madre Maria and Jesus. Zapatistas may surface, but are crushed or
starved out through political quagmires.
People are placated to be content with the nothingness while televisions
are assembled for and sold in an American Wal-Mart making a pittance rather
than nothing. Be happy with what you have and do not ask about who keeps the
differential.
China holds the
largest atheist population on Earth. To
compensate the state has adopted the communist party as a surrogate god. The communist-state attempts to control the
tone and content of media, business, and politics. China possibly more than any place on the
planet demonstrates the true danger of the first commandment and the fallacy of
any conceptual god. Religion is merely a
mechanism to facilitate this control.
God is the vehicle to which free-will is abdicated no matter the book,
clothing, or curtain in exchange for placating our fears of inconsequence to
our existence on a psychological level and death on an organic one. This includes the State.

The same
apocalyptic balancing act is true for the military industrial complex and
energy sectors. The continued
construction of mechanisms of war including: missiles, submarines, rifles,
tanks, bullets, armor, aircraft, ships, encampments, trajectory systems,
chemical agents, etc. are found irrelevant without conflict. Look at the corporate cattle-brands on flying
drones. Fundamentally connected with
this system is fuel of a controllable derivation. There is no more uncontrollable fuel than the
sun.
Renewable energies
such as solar and wind threaten theism.
As once conceived as being controlled by god, our scientific
understanding of and ability to capture and provide a socialized ubiquitous
font of cheap energy to the planet is stymied rather than stridently obsessed
over for the reality that once the cork is removed from the genie’s bottle to
transport cheap solar or wind power to the masses, trillions of dollars and
societal control will be lost. Public
ownership of sun or wind farms would likely be pilfered by the Meme into
private corporations as a counterbalance.
Some countries
will adapt renewable sources under the meme’s zest for monetary advantage over
other countries, but this is done for economic reasons to garner more control
given the global market of fossil fuels in spite of the potential loss of
control domestically. This is why
isolated countries like Germany or France are more likely to adopt renewable
energies than oil and gas rich nations like the United States or Russia. It is not so much that renewable energy
cannot work. It is that the Meme inside
countries rich in fossil fuels prefer to sabotage, delay, and stymie renewable
energy to milk the product lifecycles of compressed Paleozoic carbon rather
than lose the profit to obsolescence under a paradigm shift.
If renewable
energy becomes dominant, a primary rationalization for war, energy supply, will
be vacated and less profitable peaceful environments will spread. More independent people will be less hungry
to consume as basic needs of food, housing, and clothing will each be more
easily met at a higher standard with cheap available reliable energy which can
be farmed anywhere the sun shines, which is not owned or controlled by private
parties. Happy people are less likely to
support militarized conflict.
Desperation in a
people leads to lower labor costs, tolerated product quality standards, and
thresholds of circumspection to those offering wares. War and crime are therefore intentionally
kept as a specter to maintain a sufficient threshold of fear to command
obedience. If nations do not schedule or
participate in military conflicts on a regular basis, military budgets will seem
largesse to the citizenry.
This is primarily
done on a subconscious level. Majorities
of populations have rationalized the savior of other lands through the very
annihilation of the infrastructure of those lands. The key is the “at least it is not me” logic
of a foreign war. Better there than
here. Soldiers often believe god is on
their side, despite contradictions we will discuss later.
The Meme is correlated
to the current state of the Republican Party in the United States of America
and Prime Minister Netanyahu’s actions in Israel. This is correlated with the interconnected
role of oil in the Middle East, in particular the regimes of Saudi Arabia and
Kuwait in context to the United States along with the fundamentalist opposition
of the Supreme Leader in Iran behind a puppet secular government.
The U.S.
Democratic Party and other global left-leaning parties have traversed ever more
central in policy despite being lambasted as far-left in media cycles. True American liberalism would be championing
a single-payer universal health care system including the decriminalization of
marijuana, cocaine and to a degree heroin to form intergovernmental raw
materials purchasing programs with foreign governments to supply regulated distribution
industries inside America.
America would
impoverish the black market distribution networks and combat poverty as a
social issue through education and prison reform while encompassing addiction
mediation in a comprehensive medical system focused on wellness rather than
profit by using IRS adjusted-gross-income fluxing deductibles and copays. However, none of this is even suggestible on
a national stage, due to the dominance of the cascading subconscious
ramifications of the first commandment created by the Meme.
So many industrial
mechanisms profit from the manipulation of free-will by utilizing the
exponential human-consumption of limited and functionally irreplaceable
planetary resources. This includes:
water, oil, marijuana, cocaine, opium, land, habitat, forests, fisheries, coal,
methane, and gold etc. To internalize
the collective scientific and societal costs of such actions externalized from
the individual market-players profit equations increases the risk of human
volition electing to assert an internal nexus rather than the centrality of
religious and political establishment.
Few businesses
will elect to voluntarily incur a tax which provides marginal benefit to the
collective and substantial fiscal detriment to the individual. Enforceable market-laws must be established
to assure the market shortcuts are encompassed in a collective
profit-equation. To not do so is
self-destructive and in the best individual-interest of the wealthiest humans,
absent either planetary human unsustainability or a threshold of atheism or
divergent election of religious brand which the empowered cannot control.
