FOR THE GLORY OF HUMANITY

-



A blood donor didn’t save my life.  Nobody died for my sins.  I do what I do, for the glory of Humanity, Humankind, The Human race.

A friend told me that he works hard and does everything to the best of his ability – For the Glory of God.  As I stood there thinking to myself –

Should I tell him that there is no god and that his intentions are misguided?
I could not.  After my deconversion, all the reading I have done lately, and my new way of thinking – reasoning, logic, and rationality and critical thinking tells me that there is no god and that Humanism is the only Glory there is.

We are good without god.  We cannot be good with god.  Looking at the world with rose-colored glasses is a delusion.  For the rose color, the blood of your lamb, not mine, colors your thinking, your reason, and your worldview.  Probably, because you are hoping, and praying that these are the end of times, and that you are special and beloved of your King, Father, Sky god, and that you will live forever in some mythical place in the sky.

It’s not going to happen.  Make your heaven here for this is all there is.  Get over yourself.  For the glory of humankind awaits you.  You are your brother’s keeper.  Begin today and give everything to him, her, and it…. Nature, the environment.  Embrace science and the natural world.  Live for today, not some ancient literature, not some future utopia. 

Eat the apple, read from the book of knowledge of good and evil, and use reason and logic to discern the difference between the two.  For in the recesses of the heart of humanity all will be revealed.  Love is all there is, Love is all there is.

TRIBALISM WILL SURELY KILL US ALL

Like a pack of hungry wolves, we seek to eat and destroy our prey. That hunger that thirst that cannot be satisfied can eat us alive. When some of us have all that we need we want more. More than we can ever use. More and more and more that is our mantra. When disasters happen, we are instructed to consume more for the cause. But that is only instinct. However, it does not serve the good, our good or the collective good or the greater good. Our economic system is based on consumption. More hunter than a gatherer. We rely on a cheap source of energy that destroys the environment when new economies can build on newer more sustainable and environmentally friendly renewable forms of energy i.e. solar, winds, waves. We can leverage what is already there. That is Humane – for us and our home. Animals take care of their homes, dens, hives, nests, we destroy and spoil what was given us with our never-ending appetites.   Preservation and now restoration must be our focus lest we

Come what may, whatever tomorrow may bring, we need to deal with it and move on! The world is in pieces and we can not change it or fix it with the same thinking that got us here. Greed and Selfishness will not be tolerated moving forward. The truth will be first and foremost the determining factor on every decision and petty bullshit will not be tolerated. Stupidity and ignorance - willful or otherwise will be called out and not be allowed to continue. We are all in this together the Social Compact must be adhered to and practiced and encouraged if we are to survive and evolve beyond this moment in time. "Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go." ~ Hermann Hesse There is a lot of misinformation out there. Conspiracy theories are running rampant. Fake news, disinformation, social media is inundated and saturated with memes and cartoons depicting gallows humor a person doesn't know what to believe - so we cower in our c

TREATING THE SYMPTOMS NOT THE CAUSE.

FOR-PROFIT AND DIVIDENDS "Those who do not hate their own selfishness and regard themselves as more important than the rest of the world are blind because the truth lies elsewhere" ~ Blaise Pascal I was recently diagnosed as having Type 2 Diabetes. I went to the Dr. for a regular check-up to get a physical. Pretty routine stuff. He scheduled me to get labs done. I hadn't seen him in a couple years. So it made sense. Saved time so he had the baseline numbers PSA etc.. to work with. Turns out my blood sugar was through the roof - 15 when 5-6.5 A1C is an acceptable number. He said we would treat it with meds first then pursue getting the number done with diet. I thought ok. It was all new to me. I did not even realize that I was looking at diabetes until I asked him what was going on. Later after doing some research, I realized that the Dr. did not even mention exercise or what foods I should eat or other options as far as medication. I did n
