Entry 347 - Who Will Pay The Tithes?

9/30/20

Time after time, I’ve seen my friends and others within Christianity struggle with anxiety, depression, major guilt, and more, and my question is this: If a religion is unable to help you remove these things and simply appeases them through dependency on the religion, does that religion really have your best interests at heart? Think about it. 

If those in Christianity could train you how to heal yourself, how to deal with your shadow self, how to move through anxiety and depression so you no longer suffer from it, why would you need Christianity? Why would you need to go to church on Sundays? Why would you need to ask the priest to ask God to forgive you?

The sooner you learn that religion isn’t trying to heal you but to keep you coming back, you realize that its motives are not simply for your self-interest, but for the religion’s collective interest. It wants you to keep coming back to church. It wants your children and your children’s children to keep coming back to church. And what happens if they stop? Who will fill up the pews on Sundays? Who will pay the tithes? Who will be submitted to the priests? 

So, it makes sense that there are multiple doctrines in order to keep you coming back, ranging from fear-based doctrines to promising healing through dependency on its teachings and way of life. Because without these walls, you would see it’s all an illusion, and you don’t really need that religion to be saved. You don’t really need that religion to be healed. You don’t really need that religion to have access to God.

You come to the realization experientially, not just intellectually, that you yourself are the temple of the living God, and you have direct and immediate access to God whenever and wherever.

March 17th 2023 Mean girls the movie may be the girl bible for the ladies, but rap is the only place where a man can be cocky and talk about pussy and somehow still keep his reputation. So many modern rap songs are trash. Remove the beats and keep the verses, and they sound like a broken percussion by a creep who makes poems about women’s private parts. When are they going to focus on women’s smarts, their hearts and their love in every fart??? – March 21st I got bored, so I started living my best life. – March 22nd White magic, new age, Kundalini, spirituality that stress one needs to be detached from emotions, which is completely contrary to why we came here, is super toxic. Any idea of transcending your emotions is also a denial of our humanity because we came here with an emotional body in order to feel every emotion, not just “the good ones….” Whatever the hell that’s supposed to mean. When you deny your emotions, you also deny yourself. You deny the reason why you came here– to e

February 5th 2023 The reason why nothing means anything until we give it meaning is because of this: In order to have something mean something, you need to have something that doesn’t mean something. In the act of splitting those two apart or existing separately, it creates duality.  If all that was before there was everything was love, then there is no meaning, just love. That’s why love doesn’t mean something because that would create duality. Love just is. To say it means something is to imply duality because in order for something to mean something, then something else must contrast it. Love is before what means or doesn’t mean anything. That which is, precedes labels, definitions, dualities and physical reality. It is the eternal. That which encapsulates and goes beyond. Love is the limitless infinite. The One that will never fail to be what it is. -- I thought I was asexual, but then I realized I only want the baddest bitch that exists. -- February 6th Many Christians think the w

March 2nd 2023 I was confused why i wasn’t like the others Why I preferred one over a thousand lovers One kiss for eternity over hook ups in beds Was I conditioned by church to stay a virgin or did I choose that out of my own internal provision? Was I programmed to detest sex or did I detest the idea of it being treated anything less than an act of divinity? Was I asexual or were my standards too high? What about sex keeps me a virgin? Is it God? The church? Or myself? A virgo in astrology might have foreshadowed the realization but if I don’t need it why make a big deal about it? If I feel the reason is not persuasive enough, why do it with another? and so I don’t. Does that make me anything? maybe it just makes me another human. Perhaps there is an undertone As I write this I feel it bubble to the surface I’ve always known I’m a hopeless romantic at heart Falling deeply for people in my dreams without an ounce of showing any of those feelings outwardly But it reaches deeper than that
