The Zealots, The Crusaders and The Jihadists; Faith and Politics

At what point in their history have the Jew’s, Christians and the Muslims not acted on their beliefs in the same manner as those they condemn and war with? They have all been terrorists of sorts in their own times and their own ways. Not only have they warred with each other since time immemorial but their xenophobic attitudes towards each other as well has turned the world into a world of foreigners.

Their highest commandment from their gods must be “If you are not with us (our religion) then you must be against us”. All of this only to be slaughtered in turn by their own brethren, the sons of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Today all three parties wage war as they have been taught by their gods, however ugly the truth it remains a fact, not speculation.

In today’s world, the world’s governmental policies are made up that of which is right and that which is wrong. Policies based on Judaism, Christianity an Islam. True or false? And since morality is composed of subjective morals then policy makers around the world today who call themselves politicians are little more than clergy. So, we live in a politically correct world steeped in monotheism, which is only right. Or is it? Am I right? Am I wrong? I don’t know for certain.

In other worlds, or in other words, they who are the policy makers are those in power and those in power have always been the tools of religion. Those in power gained power through coercion and called it government and I call it bastardized pagan religion and obsolete traditions. Indeed they have power, but what power I ask? Which tradition? I claim it is that of yhwh, Jesus, and Allah. And I refute it!

Unfortunately we, the innocent and ignorant, are unwillingly caught in the middle of this global tragedy. But who are “We”? Farmers, bus drivers, technicians, sailors and soldiers. Fisherman, realtors, engineers, scientists and lawyers. What does humanity fight and die for in their innocence and ignorance? Geopolitical wars in whose name? Which god are we suffering for? Geopolitical warfare? This is ultimately the new term for spiritual warfare. Ignorance indeed.

We are no longer individual communities or nations! Look around you. We are an international community.We are the world. And we are humanity. They blind us with the facts. Wars? Whose war? Allah’s? yhwhs? Christ’s? It isn’t Buddha’s, it isn’t Zeus’s, it isn’t Satan’s! It is monotheism’s. Where are the armies of Buddha? Where are these armies of Evil? I know where the armies of monotheism are. They have always sought destruction. Just read their “holy text”. Go ahead. I dare you.

Is the only thing humanity has lived for and everything those before us have died for been an ongoing and ancient war for religious international policy that people cannot even perceive of anymore? I ask “What is the difference? When governmental practices are based on cultural traditions that are so abrasive to others? You mean to tell me that the vast majority of the believers, the followers of the One True God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (The One True God) war with each other and we are continuously the victims and they the victors based on where we sit upon this globe? The gods of compassion, mercy, and love? This is your god of light?

This hasn’t always been the case as most educated people know. These are gods of fire, blood, war and death. Satan looks absolutely delightful compared to them. The Old gods have been forgotten as well as their teachings. Nature and the divine Feminine have been given over to monotheists and so called pagans who refuse to unite thereby leaving the world to choke on Divine Wrath. I do what I can but it is not enough. War has beepnartyrsn the doctrine of monotheism and the people who worship them love it. They would be lost without it.

What was once considered “acceptable” is today’s taboo. Politicians are the new clergy and clergy are the new policy makers are simply flying different banners. Are the three gods of monotheism along with their martyrs and the prophets of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob worth the destruction of humanity? Ask yourself and ask your loved ones this question. Because this is the inevitable end of all things through monotheism. They seek the end of humanity’s “wickedness” as they believe all are born in sin and are evil by nature. They seek the end of time. Thy truly strive for it.

However we have a chance. We are the chance. But only time will tell.

The Law of the Spiritual Kingdoms


Jus Gentium

“The Law of Nations”

or

International Law

Apply the what we know of our mundane governments to what we know of the relations of religions and all of the gods and pantheons of the world’s history as though they were humans inhabiting our mundane world as humanity has.

Can you categorize and identify where the adherents of these religions, deities and their collective actions fall in relation to the human concepts of natural justice? International Law? Diplomacy? Dictatorships? Ambassadors? Theocracies, democracies and monarchies? How nations interact with each other is often notably associated with individual political figures and  particular negotiations or the extreme opposite where treaties fail and a war between nations ensue. Are the followers’ of various religions and their gods exempt from being held accountable? Why?

  1. Kingdoms Fall and Kingdoms Rise: New religions are like new kingdoms, being born from the remnants of older ones, which in turn were born from older ones just as children are born to their parents and they to theirs. The birthing process could have been found through the medium of proselytism, war, or influential messengers. Without anyone to learn from the young can become victims of stronger and smarter opposition like so many of the religions that have been destroyed like a candle in the face a blazing fire being consumed as fuel. Many of the ancient religions thought to have been dead have shown immense growth in modern times as so-called revivalist polytheistic or pagan religions and a significant indicator of these are how they began adopting concepts and creeds, patterns or methods of more famous as well as infamous religions. Much like the new nations adopting older concepts with new names.
  2. Theological & Religious Dormancy: Due to the pagan diapause, the stagnant or dormant period in which no action is taken as if in hibernation created by adverse conditions, the core of all pagan religions have lost definition. Though, their has been a rebirth of pagan or non Judeo-Christian religions on a massive scale which created an explosion in declarations, doctrines, articles of faith, creeds and statements. But this isn’t enough to bring these religions back to life and out of their dormant state.
  3. Lacking the Catalyst to Reemerge: Sadly enough, many of these organizations were short-lived. One would surface only to sink once again into obscurity. Why did so many of these have such short life spans? How have Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Taoism, and other world religions survived so long and through so much turmoil? and they did not understand the difference between the practice and the belief thl
  4. Names and Words are not Titles and Actions: Despite the fact thatSlowly the term pagan became a very general and vague concept. If someone were to ask you what you were wearing so that they identify you when meeting for the first time and your response was simply “Clothes”, then they would have great difficulty in identifying who you are.
  5. Similarities and Differences: And so it is with New Age, paganism. Pagan or Wiccan is such a general term, though not a negative one, as to require clarification of tradition, path, degree, and Pantheon even among other pagans.
  6. The Individual is not the Faith: People will simply not comprehend the personal eclectic nature of what it means and this is very unfortunate considering the rich nature of such belief systems and the heritage that made them so legendary and powerful.
  7. Faith is not the Individual; The Person is not a Kingdom, nor a Religion: Solitary practitioner? The concept of individualism as the basis for pagan religion will forever inhibit the creation of a stable enough foundation on which to build a long lasting faith.
  8. Individuality and Schisms, The Cause of Chaos?: The concept of eclecticism gives the people the ability to pick and choose faith as they wish instead of seeing the whole of faith.
  9. Finding the Catalyst: A redetermination of these methods being used to promote religion is needed because on this current path, in the face of the ways of the monolithic religions, we will all die and the continuous chaos tears away at the fabric of what it is that to be a whole. To accept a person for, or deny them, initiation takes away from what it is to be human. We are doomed to fail if we hold ourselves to such fantastical standards.
