In case you hadn’t noticed, I’m not enamored of religion, religious leaders, bullies, power-mongers, fear-mongers and liars.
Added to that list are self-appointed ‘ascended masters’, interfering new age busybodies (not all new agers), psychics who aren’t psychics at all (a cousin worked at a well known live psychic phone line, where he and his co-workers weren’t screened and were about as psychic as any standard issue toenail), and let us not forget those delightful little ‘aliens’ who claim to be millions of years old with a self-appointed right to wipe humanity out of existence because the poor little alien got into a bitch fight with a bunch of ‘lowly men’ and woke up dead for their efforts. Where’s Simon Pegg and Paul when you need them?
Oh! And then there’s the ‘ascension’ business, somewhere between December this year and March next year, where all good little girls and boys magically transform into 5th dimension bodies with our earth, leaving everyone else to suffer untold horrors, then die horrible deaths.
**yaaaawwwn**
What the hell kind of drugs are folks on, anyway? Are they inhaling cyanide? Mainlining uranium waste? What?!
If it’s not another ‘fear message’ from ‘Archangels’ channeled through yet another misguided soul, then it’s a cranky ‘alien’ waggling his/her finger at us via more misguided – and easily impressed – souls, threatening to wipe us out because we somehow got up their left nostril a gadzillion years ago.
News Flash: Archangels don’t do seances or channeling, and they aren’t actually affiliated with religion. Just so you know. (I learned this lesson the hard and tacky way.)
(For those who’d like more info on the subject of Angels and Archangels, I’d recommend this very grounded article, with links at the bottom to further related articles).
Seriously. It’s all more than enough to cure anyone of constipation, if you catch my drift.
Do we really need more ‘gods’, ‘ascended masters’, man-written ‘holy books’, has-beens in tie-dyed muumuus channeling ‘aliens’, and whacked out religions?
This is the 21st century, last time I checked. Y-genners seemed to come straight from the womb being far more practical, realistic, and more knowledgeable about life than I was at 20! And their kids, seem even more so. Why are older generations still trying to screw them over and infect them with ‘religious diseases’?
Aren’t we enlightened by now?
Have we not yet learned that love is far more powerful than any force in the known Universe?
Have we not yet learned that religion breeds only ignorance, hate, and death?
Have we not yet learned that we attract more bees with honey than poison?
Have we forgotten that each one of us is sovereign in our own right?
Have we not yet learned that when we hold our lights together as one, we obliterate darkness?
And by the way, when did we forget that those we put in power, are our servants, and not our masters?

We are not enlightened, sadly. Many people (I see this every day) look to the blame, on everything and everyone, to saviours out there… instead of pointing the finger to themselves and asking one simple question ‘How am I contributing to the life I have?’ I feel compassion for their struggles now, something that used to be only sympathy… A lot of otherwise good decent people are wandering in the Dark unable to ASK themselves.
I asked. Now I have to DO, and the next step is not easy for we have to know what we want, from the heart, and then take action on that. Scary.
“when we hold our lights together as one, we obliterate darkness” – that’s the one, so true.
I wonder what your hard and tacky way to learn was…
Humanity is rather a deal more ‘enlightened’ than it used to be, but with still a long way to go, yes. Religion doesn’t tend to be as progressive as technology (more’s the pity), but my title for the article was meant to be more ‘tongue in cheek’ than ‘gospel’.
