The murder and violence and slavery and genocide is real so what causes it is real and must be defeated somehow.
Discussion
The way to stop the violence, slavery, & genocide in the name of imaginary things is to get people to realize they aren't real. When people realize they are resposible for their own actions they will think twice.
I fundamentally disagree with this approach.
The STATE is real.
It exists as a psychological/spiritual condition of human slaves causing them to disregard natural law- rationalizing war, taxes, abuse, etc.
You are saying you will “exorcise” this “demon” by convincing the people it doesn’t exist?
That will not work, at least in the area of the work I am in.
“It exists as a psychological/spiritual condition”
That makes it imaginary. It has no existence in the physical realm.
Tell that to the Swat team when they are breaking down your front door.
You are the one that said the state exists psychologically and spiritually. Not me lmao
How are you going to help dismantle/decommission the state if you don’t even know what it is?
Sir, you said the state exists psychologically and spiritually. How can you dismantle a psychological/spiritual phenomenon?
By following Christ and using the Holy Spirit to cast it back into hell where it belongs.
Have you not had anyone in your family with a drug addiction or alcoholism who got sober. It is similar to that.
So basically you’re saying pray harder. But countless people have been praying to have these problems fixed and nothing ever magically fixed itself. It’s people that fix it.
Telling people that the sun god they want to sacrifice you to isn't real might not stop them from killing you either, but it doesn't make their sun god real.
You are just implying that might makes right. But truth has nothing to do with who has the greater numbers & who can kill who.
What language is this? I said it makes it REAL- *not* right.
I’m sorry I guess I thought you wanted to fix the problem.
I will try one more time:
Do you think it would be better to tell the Mayan priests that the Sun doesn’t exist?
Or would you tell them the truth? -That the Sun does not demand human sacrifice.
In my definition, mental illness or conditions like alcoholism for example ARE REAL. Statism is another mental illness. Which is real. Atheism is another IMO.
God is real and you will stand before him one day very soon, all our lives are but dust in the wind.
It’s up to you if you will have Christ vouching for you on that day or not.
