I have been wasting time trying to fix my&%###& blog and I am an idiot so I don't know how to do it. I will move on from the irritation until some kind soul(S.T.) can help me out. Religion is a big time player in the news and I have some comments via Vine Deloria Jr and thoughts via my own head, so here we go!!!
" If you put God outside and set him vis-a-vis his creation and if you have the idea that you are created in his image, you will logically and naturally see youself as outside and against the things around you. And you will arrogate all mind to yourself , you will see the world around you as mindless and therefore not entitled to moral or ethical consideration. The environment will seem to be yours to exploit. Your survival unit will be you and your folks or conspecifics against the environment of other social units,other races and the brutes and vegetables."
- Gregory Bateson
This has so much relevance today certainly the so called " super Christians" of the world consider themselves the chosen ones looking down upon the lechorus(lost my dictionary) majority of the unbeliever. It is a modern day thought process taken from a Dickens novel except in Dickens itwas the rich vs. the poor The funny thing is that these so-called Christians are complete de-generates ( Tom Delay) from the top to the bottom. What we really have is the same circumstances in a Dickens novel but the players are labeled differently. Rich/Christian, Poor/dirty street dwelling sycophant for the poor, or bleeding heart.
" To mythical and religious feeling nature becomes one great society, the society of life. Man is not endowed with outstanding rank in this society. He is a part of it but he is in no respect higher than any other member. Life possesses the same religious dignity in its humblest and in its highest forms. Men and animals, animals and plans are all on the same level."
- Ernst Cassirer
Wow now this is a pretty amazing statement. I am a man not a filthy beast we are totally opposites fucker! I can picture someone saying that to me, but no less we live through nature and that is a fact! What this qoute is saying is that WE NEED NATURE!!! We need to coexist with nature water and food are good I like both. When corporate shills conspire to pollute the very essence of life I get a little nervous and when they couch it in terms of the Holy Bible I get really nervous! How ever Holy one claims to be the proof is in the pudding and Republican feaux Christians go exactly against the Bible their one reason for being so why do a majority of us accept the lies as truth? I think it is a winner/loser mentality the Repubs won so what they say has got to be the truth they only have our best interests right?
