Our Obligation When We Are Free From Religion

April 19, 2011

We have an obligation to help others in our community of thought. We often times spend a great deal of it making jokes, being satirical or being ultra political and forget that we all have an obligation to truly be there to support each other and be encouraging to those that are just coming out of the delusion of religion.

I know I’m just as guilty when a lot of my writing comes from a place that is satirical and is sometimes demanding.

I’m at least trying to put something out there that will help others while they are going through the pendulum that swings back and fourth through their head while they are having a battle in their mind on whether they are a good person because they think and question things around them. This is going on while the people around them do not think or relate to anything they have to say and think they are the crazy one. I can only relate to my own experience, but that’s the very short version.

Friends and family are to preoccupied with talking about the weather, dancing with the stars or the latest thing in the news. It’s mental torture to people who crave intellectual conversation. Having been there, I would say that is how it felt for me overcoming religion- mental torture on a daily basis for years.

The golden rule for life is ‘do unto others as you would have them do unto you’. This saying has been hijacked by religion BUT is the true foundational moral obligation one takes away from when religion when the indoctrination of the mind is finally broken. All of you that have also gone through this will understand where that principal comes from without a doubt and relate to it the same way.

You wish, when first freed, you were really taught this way of thinking while growing up and you don’t feel as if you would have been such an asshole to others when you were a religious dumb-bot because you were so morally superior in your mind at that time from programing.

It is my moral obligation to give back to others that are going through this process. Hopefully to help them shorten the battling with their self while becoming a post theist.

When you see what kind of person you were when you were a part of that vernacular you often don’t like what you see at first with respect to yourself. Your true self image is one that you have to gain true perspective on, not the one projected to you from others that are not inside of you and are not you.

We owe it to our fellow man to leave behind a world where thought still exists so we can evolve to a place of new exploration and discover beyond this world. Using our thoughts to pursue exploration of subjects that will leave behind a heritage for mankind, such as exploring space like Louis and Clark explored the US. Our minds should be used for thoughts such as these rather than a pendulum of non thought meant to keep us selfishly constantly thinking about ourselves.

We are what makes the world and the world around us, not an invisible force and not blind faith. If we leave behind more people thinking the counter thought process, this will result in the the human race De-evolving even faster then the film comedy Idiocracy.

Take a look around you now. I’m very surprised we don’t have a sports drink in our water fountains all ready. “You know it has electrolytes!! It doesn’t make the plants grow, water is for the toilette”.

Are we really far off from that? I think we are already here. Just 40 years ago our baby boom parents actually cared about the world around them and wanted to see a better place left to all of us. I don’t know if they envisioned leaving us nothing but debt, fear, greed and delusion as a legacy. So to them, thank you so much!! Awesome job!! We are the only ones that can cause that to change. No one else is there. Just all of us. I think it’s to late for them as they believe in the lie they have created to much. So we are the ones that have to cause the change.

This is just a small reason we need to be supportive to others. I’m very grateful for people like Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins and Reddit, because without them I don’t think I would have had the courage to read about the subject and free myself but to also write about it so as to help those that I know still live with the pain on a daily basis.

To them, hang in there! I promise it gets better and you will one day really know that too. Keep on reading, educating and becoming aware of who you truly are and don’t fear the process anymore. Embrace it as a journey and a part of who you are and your life story.

Better to have color in your story than have the story of ‘leave it to beaver’ as your life and memories. That really would be a lonely life and one very unfulfilled and wrought with remorse. It’s also not a real life of contribution and when you finally break your dogma you will truly understand this at a very deep level and this will you give you true ambition to help others.

Never stop educating yourself and always ask “why?”.
