Twenty - First Century Knowledge

"The history of humanity can be understood as a battle between good and bad Ideas.
Bad ideas are like viruses that can infect whole populations, causing them to behave in the most horrendous ways.  The twentieth Century  probably saw more people die needlessly from bad ideas than from disease epidemic,"
So lets get rid of needlessly bad ideas and replace them with good ideas.


Original sin - That is such a bad idea.
Lets never again tell our children they've been born bad and re-sure them instead that they are naturally good.


The Bible is the only word of God.
Ridiculous idea.


There is only one way to God.
Obvious nonsense.


The Day of Judgment and the Resurrection of the flesh.
Spooky idea.


The World is a bad place and we should hate it.
In the face of the Wonders all around us that's ungrateful.


Eternal damnation.
Horrible, grotesque, really, really bad idea.


God likes some people more than others.
Please! What sort of God is that?


Sex is evil.
If you believe this you must be doing it wrong.


God is male.
What could that possibly mean? Does God have a penis?


Men are more Spiritual than women
This idea must have been thought up by a man who never had a mother.


God has opinions - and only some people know what they are.
That's got to be one of the worst ideas ever, because it is regularly used to justify a whole edifice of bad ideas."

Hope we don't get offended by this but that is how i read it, and it made sense then and it makes sense now.

Truth

"The hour is coming when you will worship the Father neither in the Mountains or in Jerusalem.  The true worshipper worships the Father in Consciousness and truth, for this is the worship which the Father wants. God is Consciousness and those that worship Him must worship Him in Consciousness and Truth."      ibid 4:20-4

The First Matter in People


"Psychologically, the First Matter is identical with the dark, irrational forces of the subconscious mind. Like the First Matter of the universe, the First Matter within us contains all the potential energy and dynamic oppositions necessary to fuel our transformation and achieve the goal of the Great Work.

In the mental work, the First Mater to be transformed is the shadowy and chaotic subconscious mind. It is located in the vessel of the human mind, and that is where the work begins. However, the awakened subconscious is a surprisingly powerful force that can generate all kinds of negative energies in the personality. That's why the work of mental alchemy must take place in the hermetically sealed vessel of the mind in the inner laboratory"               Dennis William Hauck
