Chapter 6 - a religion
Once upon the onset of religion, that well-loved concept that mass populations are fervently dying for and refuse to question, is why there is a such a thing as a separated self. An odd pondering of; that and the other. Whether we like it or not, and no matter what we say about it, we base our entire societies around religion. In fact, most won’t trust someone that extols anything other than some certain religion, regionally. Oddly enough, you really don’t have to believe in anything, you’ll still exist.
The fact that humans have gone several millennium almost completely ignoring the female equivalent of the human race is pretty appalling in and of itself. But, one would think they had to realize, at some point, a bunch of men wrote this nonsense, and yet people still take it seriously.
There are very few remaining “beliefs” that fit in well as a human understanding of this vast reality, and they’ve mostly been beaten, bludgeoned, burden and bejeweled by the blasphemy of ego. This gem is a really twisted version of an actual gem.
Blessed are the meek,
Matthew 5
for they will inherit the earth.
Such as it is, it isn’t so much a twist on reality as it is just a flat out line of crap. As if inheritance of anything (in this particular case, the earth) is such a thing as to be “blessed” to maintain. Who would specifically want to be the blessed maintainers of the earth? Certainly not the meek. I won’t go in to touting any theologians that have a far more palatable flavor of this basic concept, but it sounds more like this.
The meek are the ones that thoroughly understand that they are “of the earth and the sky, limitless”

Regardless, you only have one “life”, which is always complete. Creation is, itself, a vision of betterment. Do better.
