The examination that argues religion IS politics-dj eckert

I'm starting to understand the " truth" behind the old cliche that says "Never! argue religion and politics! ". Cliches are cliches after all because there is an element of truth to them. In this case though, THAT element of truth is flawed because it seems to be saying , in effect "EVERYONE is right ,and how can you win an argument with someone who is right? "

The strange, undeniable TRUTH though is that there ARE things that are TRUE and things that are NOT TRUE (or LIES).
Of course what I say about all of this political and religion stuff is TRUTH. (lol) I say that tongue in cheek just to illustrate my point. (The aforementioned idea ALMOST makes me want to just shut up about religion/politics . But I say "almost" because my religion says to me
"don't do it".)

I say all this to say that what really perplexes a
"truth seeker" is the obvious rampant existence of a practiced "religion" to live an unexamined life in an unexamined world. Where did this religion come from? and why is it such a popular religion? Why such a blind trust and faith in this establishment religion?

With just the most rudimentary examination on almost any subject; if a person would just "put aside" the preprogrammed established line of what they are taught to be true and merely examine it with new, unbiased eyes they very well might come to a conclusion that, in this instance, what they are taught as "truth" REALLY ISN'T. Ultimately they could ask themselves " what ELSE am I being lied to about?"

Of course,many seem afraid to examine and embrace TRUTH, and in effect, THAT becomes their working religion.

Religion AND politics are REALLY in essence the same thing. Religion being a man's quest for Truth, and politics being the practical application of how that man wants to be able to live out his life under his perception of truth.

I could go on to illustrate and explain the different religion idealogies and their equivalent or corresponding political ideology,but to be brief I won't.

I'll just say that basically it comes down to what we want to believe as Truth. It ultimately is really about the state of OUR hearts. (see my article entitled " the mad scientist who bisects our hearts", especially for someone who thinks that science proves this kind of idea as wrong)

It's a noble thing to have a political belief formed by what your examined perception of Truth is. For example if your examination has led you to the conclusion that there is no God ,and that your god should be "the state", and you are willing to hand over your own freewill to the state ( an idea abhorrent to Christians and Patriots), then suporting the likes of a Clinton, or a Bernie Sanders would make perfect sense. After all a true reckoning of what their platform IS would in fact reveal that point to them. But that concept seems unexamined.

I find it interesting however that many avowed atheists declare that the reason that they can't or won't believe in a Biblical God is because they can't believe in a God who says in essence "love ME ... or else". But any truthfull examination of the Bible would reveal to them that there is no greater Champion for our "freewill as men" than the God of the Bible. (This God ordained Freedom is what our Free country was founded upon) After all, even God wouldn't want someone to love HIM because of a gun to their head? If THAT ( a gun to the head) is what a person believes the Bible is saying, I suggest that they read it again or perhaps a first time.

There seems another major political/religion belief system being practiced heavily that seems to say " I am allright with the status quo, as long as I can keep getting mine" is this a form of hedonism? This "I'll go with the safe cronie capitalist fascism status quo to stay feeling secure" that even many professing Christians seem to embrace over what their instruction manual Bible tells them to follow; I also find this very concerning.( see my writing entitled " A toast to those just doing their jobs ")

The well examined political/ religious person , I am afraid seems to be somewhat of a rare bird, and unfortunately I think, our future as mankind seems to be left in the hands ( or is it unexamined minds? ) of a "new kind of political/religious creature" that IS (as that status quo continues) giving himself over to another kind of bird: " a rising phoenix". After all , that lets the "evil ones" or powers that be and their politicians practice THEIR Luciferian religion. ( https://www.therealstrategy.com/one-global-currency/)
