Religious Thoughts

I’m not religious, but boy am i fascinated by it. I really am. And my Chaos magic practice has led me to curious conclusions.

The End of The WORLD! I’ve mentioned this before, collective will and expectation is not impotent! 2012 is coming up, let it be boring. But in this election it seems as if Doomsday anticipation is shaping Republican political agendas, as if more human suffering will allow the end times to come the much sooner. All I do know is that in the sincere Religious right is sincere belief in immanent end times and it’s not a belief system conducive to sane choices if the human race prevails anyway.

I wish some actual Christian religious leaders would distinguish this instead of me (’cause I’m not Christian): It is Christian HERESY to suggest Jesus loves the rich over the poor, that sincere Christians must be rich because prayer delivers money or something.

The Creative writing experience has taught me that if I imagine a character and focus a lot of mental energy into that character, that character can become ‘real’, even independent. As a Chaos magician this is called a servitor, originally called ‘Tulpa” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulpa . Now when more than one person invests mental energy into the same entity, it can be even more powerful and is called an egregore (an example is Santa Claus, a Corporation or meme ['welfare millionaire' is one example of an egregore as meme]).

So the Republicans that love a Jesus that loves the rich, believes in personal responsibility, and most ironically adores Ayn Rand. Guess what, that Jesus is REAL! If for not reason than that people collectively believe in that. If you believe in right wing Jesus, I bet he answers prayers, helps you win lotto – if you into it serious I bet you can convince yourself He’s communicating with you!

But no, this Jesus is NOT Biblical Jesus!

Is any Jesus the Biblical Jesus? Do Catholics, Mormons and Southern baptists worship three DIFFERENT Gods?

I’ve also been learning to be less prejudiced about Christians, to respect it’s a broad belief system. It’s really interesting that I can share many of the insights I make in this blog, with CHRISTIANS, that do not disagree with me?!

Like a blasphemous idea I’ve introduced here once before – Godhood through integrity in essence. The idea that if you always keep your word, take the discipline seriously, you word will become strong. And people that know you will have tremendous respect and belief in your word if you make it that strong. And the belief of others builds your own belief too – until your word is perhaps more powerful that it should be. Meaning if you are the person who always keeps his word, using that word to heal someone MIGHT WORK! That’s left hand magic if I ever saw it. And a Christian agrees with me? really?

Well, food for thought. Is where my head has been at recently.
