Let’s Get Biblical

More lives have been ended, and countless women’s lives at that, in the name of religion than perhaps any other thing. Witch hunts aren’t anything new and apply to far more than spiritual realms. If you look around, we are poised with pitchforks and have already seen the torches come out, ready for the hunts to begin. We are all thirsty for blood in the name of ideology…for no God-given or God-damned reason at all. When we lead with love, it is misperceived & misconstrued as that same anger that beats in the blood of those who prefer revenge in our man-made misery manufactury where everyone’s in a tin foil house and is throwing some pebbles to avoid the elephants in rooms & skeletons in closets. Tiptoeing on egg shells, too big or too small, like the world is a ripe atom bomb.

I was hovering at the intersection of atheist within the realm of ignostic and I have found myself in a funny sort of place after countless dark nights of the soul and a lifetime of introspection, reflection, intellectualization, and my own people science…I kind of decided it was fine to be ignostic & step into whatever kind of epigenetic magic was handed down to me from the ancients and everyone since, to believe everything and nothing all at once. I woke up with a “cracked the matrix swag” and decided it was time to fight for my life again…and with whatever magic it is I have that brings me precisely to where I need to be when I need to be there to solve the problems I find there…I realized there is nothing that can hold me back from whatever vision it is I wish to see fulfilled in this world before I am no longer here as I know we leave the land to those who come after us…if there is anything left to leave after all of this rampant greed…

If my little Luck of the Irish jig is problematic…Imma just reel myself along…thems the vibes I’m on in this strange age of hypocrisy & lies. I made peace with my demons on a level I hope everyone someday understands. Liberation is worth everything and I intend to leave no one behind. None of us can tolerate the world as is, so it’s time for someone to envision what can and should be and call it what it is for a change.

If the Bible should have taught us anything, it’s that man’s greatest enemy is himself. Cloaking myself in darkness was always my favorite fit. I just had to sharpen my teeth one more time and remind myself what I fight for and how I do so – with art, science, and reason…perhaps a bit of Jungian philosophy trolling along. Ethics and reason should always trump religion, the “founding fathers” knew that much…now whether they were ethical…

We must sort out the universal and sacred truths of every matter and we must rely on our faculties of intellect, which they try to strip from us each day of our lives. Everyone knows they’re being lied to, but they often don’t realize it is first and foremost themselves, which allows a culture of untruth to rise and dominate. I didn’t go study witchcraft out…those things never really fit. I had to go on a quest for Baba Yaga and into the depths of my soul and the family tree, the history of the land and the history of me. And I found there was always power within that I held at bay for the comfort of constructs & arbitrary values that I will still never understand.

Whatever religion was…it isn’t it now. And as much as I will always love my Catholics, let’s be real here…the Vatican was the empire of empires. And now the US is still run by Puritans somehow…and we are on several witch hunts all at once, globally… I respect holy books as artifacts of history and for the potential their stories could teach as I would be remiss if I said I learned nothing each time I read the Bible like the most fascinating and violently twisted series of stories I had ever read. But it seems everyone else missed all the parts… Don’t get me started on Lot and his lot.
