Brawls outside Notre Dame over the pope and condoms

Maybe the pope should not be the enormous moral authority across the global culture that he is. The pope believes that a myth about the existence of a good one in Heaven at war with an evil one cast down to and ruling over Earth is; the truth about the existence of one totality that we all share. To claim that myth is truth as he does is to lie to the many of our global culture. The truth is that myth is myth. The lie is that myth is truth. Belief in the truth that myth is myth leads to tolerance of those who choose a different myth than our own when orienting self towards world and explaining world to self. Belief in the lie that myth is truth lead to intolerance of those who choose a different myth than our own when orienting self towards world and explaining world to self. From intolerance follows a global war on terror. The aggressive ideological tradition he leads produces religious leaders who repeat the lie that myth is truth in defense of a fraudulent affirmation of an ability to know about the existence of a good one in Heaven at war with an evil one cast down to and ruling over Earth; in defense of their threat making against the life and or afterlife of anybody that does not submit to their authority; in defense of their extortion of tithes and offerings from communities of faithful believers in exchange for a life long indoctrination in the lie that myth is truth; and in defense of the racist, heterofascist, warmongering behavior of communities of faithful believers they motivate to out work, out fight, and out number competition in a race to Armageddon. The pope continues to be the enormous moral authority across the global culture because a mercenary plutocratic predatory few who profit from the sale and manufacture of the products and services of a beast of a military industrial complex are smart enough to know that he is good for their protection racket a.k.a. the global world on terror. Of course, the pope is not the only intolerant liar who behaves illogically. The global culture is dominated by networks of liars built up around a belief in the lie that myth about the existence of a good one in Heaven at war with an evil one cast down to and ruling over Earth is: the truth about the existence of one totality that we all share.

Maybe those who vigorously defend their faith in an aggressive ideological tradition don't understand the ordeal we are facing together. Human beings are multiplying to the point of causing disease within the body that is our body consuming biosphere. Global warming, deforestation, desertification, pollution, desolation of large areas of land in war; dead zones in our oceans, and the melting of ancient glaciers are all evidence of this disease as is the daily starvation of on average thirty thousand children aged zero to five. Our historical use of violence to resolve our differences over ownership of increasingly scarce resources; and to resolve our differences over matters of faith; could cause the death of the body that is our body consuming biosphere.

If I get a virus in my body that multiplies to excess and causes disease, then maybe I can take an anti-viral to inhibit the multiplication of the virus and restore my body to health. If our body consuming biosphere gets a liar in it's body that multiplies to excess and causes disease, then maybe our body consuming biosphere can take an anti-liar to inhibit the multiplication of liars and restore it's body to health. Maybe the truth is the only anti-liar that our body consuming biosphere needs to take. The truth is that myth is myth. Based on the truth that myth is myth, I challenge religious leaders who repeat the lie that myth is truth in defense of their fraud, threat making, and extortion. Extortion based on fraud that follows from the lie that myth is truth should be considered a crime against humanity, because in committing acts of extortion based on fraud that follows from the lie that myth is truth these conservative ideological authorities make threats against the life and or afterlife of others; and lead communities of faithful believers to have a low esteem of the existence of one totality that is not conducive to happiness and health.

Abrahamic Religions are Satanic Religions. Communities of faithful believers self organized around Abrahamic religions may claim to be worshiping a good one in Heaven yet this good one in Heaven is not even good enough to rule over the Earth in the present. In their minds, communities of faithful believers self organized around Abrahamic religions give over rule of the Earth in the present to an evil one cast down from Heaven that they call Satan. Sure some communities of faithful believers self organized around Abrahamic religions may claim that a good one in Heaven will return to Earth in the future to have final victory over an evil one cast down from Heaven and ruling over Earth in the present; but they never back up this claim with one definite conclusion about a specific point in time when this final victory will occur. We always live in the present, and our lives in the future are always in the future. So for all intents and purposes Abrahamic religions lead communities of faithful believers to build a pessimistic model of the existence of one totality that follows from the idea that an evil one cast down from Heaven rules over Earth. The claim that Satan is ruling over Earth, and the claim that the evil one attacks the minds and bodies of the many; may lead some communities of faithful believers to think, believe and expect that an evil one cast down from Heaven has the power to influence the thoughts and actions of members: This in turn leads some of those members to fear their own bodies and their own minds.

We need to stop lying to ourselves, stop lying to one another, start telling the truth and start behaving in a logical manner. If the truth is that myth is myth, and optimism correlates with happiness and health, then out of an infinite number, diversity, and variety of myths about the existence of one totality made possible by the existence of discovery and the existence of mystery; the logical choice to make when orienting self towards the world and explaining the world to self is a belief in the one myth that enables us to have the highest esteem of the existence of one totality. The validity of this choice follows from the truth that myth is myth and from the capacity of a belief in the one myth that enables us to have the highest esteem of the existence of one totality to produce desirable results that are conducive to happiness and health. A belief in a pessimistic myth about the existence of one totality is an illogical choice to make when orienting self towards the world and explaining the world to self. The invalidity of this choice follows from the lie that myth is truth and from the capacity of a belief in a pessimistic myth about the existence of one totality to produce undesirable results that are not conducive to happiness and health.
