For anyone interested in how idolatry has progressed, over time, to a personality worship of the dead, and idealized Nietzsche’s Bitches.
Death of God was transformative…like the narrative about Christ’s resurrection.
God was renamed - and so were his prophets.
The idol was internalized (esoteric) as idea/ideal, and sanctified.
The simpleton no longer bows and kisses the marble or the image, or the holy scepter, but bows spiritually, intellectually, carrying the idol along with him, in his own mind.
Protestantism meets Judaism.
Absolute order, the concept of one, whole, is the new name of the Abrahamic one-god - monism reigns supreme, because the masses need simple, complete, final solutions.
That is an interesting statement. It kind of grabbed me.
Are you speaking here about not being aware of Self, not having independent thought, and therefore, the “other” rules? That is what I received from it but I can be very wrong, MagsJ.
How do you come to know the “psychology of another”?
Projection?
That’s it?
You imagine yourself in its circumstances and extrapolate how it may think and feel?
What if this other is diametrically different from you, in degree, if not substance?
You only see yourself in the other.
You never see the other.
You are trapped in sympathetic/antipathetic projection.
That’s why you believe in the Jew god.
Thesis:
Christinaity and Islam were the consequence of Judaism coming in contact with heathen, pagan, tribes, to the west & to the east. Cross contamination
Judaism was also affected/infected by Hellenism, producing Marxism and Zionism.
Zionism = is it a manifestation of the Stockholm Syndrome?
How different is it from Nazism?
Why do Zionists contradict Judaism and idealize tribes such as the Doric Hellenes, yet still identify with Judaism?
Memes/Genes.
How different were the ancient Spartans from the Nazis, other than in their access to sophisticated weapons of mass extermination?
Is mass-extermination only possible physically? Can one exterminate a people spiritually, ideologically?
Is satanism an Abrahamic corruption of Paganism?
Daemon, in Hellenism, was not what they refer to as the Devil.
There was no evil spirit in Paganism.
Is critique of Judaism a critique of Semites?
Why doesn’t this apply to Islam or Christianity?
Are all Semites Jews;’ are all Jews Semites?
Genes/Memes
I think it’s better to think of that sort of oneness in terms of wholeness.
& if possession is real, it is best to think of it like intrusive thoughts you cannot YET tame. Hence the importance of spiritual disciplines that are not an OPEN HOUSE to whatever stray meme is wandering around. It’s like spirit gym.
Sometimes I wonder if I’m like that guy in the M Night Shyamalan movie, I believe it was Lady in the Water, …dude with ONE huge, muscular arm.
Not just in my own “polis” but because I …well, basically… keep to myself. Yeah… body/polis of Christ… Paul weren’t no dummy. Still get a kick out of my “Good News of the Kingdom” compilation of Jesus’ words that reads strangely close to a solved Republic.
all is dynamic.
Whole, like one, refers to an abstraction - the mind cutting away dimensions - possibilities - to construct a mental concept referring to a temporal piece of a dynamic process.
Like a snapshot.
A three-dimensional snapshot of a four-diemsional dog, isn’t a dog…but a representation.
The mind projects itself in some ‘outside existence’ “place” and then imagines the cosmos as a singular thing - a whole, one thing.
