If we lived forever, we would not have to invent God, or Spirit or Saints or Good and Evil.
Matter of fact, all traditions of spirituality and Religious doctrines would not exist without Mankind’s fear of death.
Matter of another fact, mankind does live forever, Has no beginning, has no end, and is only conscious A little while in the middle, and again in the middle, And again in the middle.
So, there you have it. The whole function of spirituality and religion is To convince us that we’re not our bodies And that we don’t die when our bodies do.
Consider that the whole purpose of life in a body Is to expand the consciousness to understand that The end of the body is not the end of living.
Consider that the whole purpose of life in a body Is to grow toward presently unimaginable degrees of Compassion, peace, and joy, while living in a body.
Consider that the laborious struggles Humanity suffers To discover the meaning of life Is totally unnecessary because, Life itself is the meaning of life.
That really simplifies things doesn’t it?
Now, Baby Love, how do we go about dispelling the Spooky “woo-woo,” “airy fairy,” wishes, lies, and dreams Of all Humanity, and cut to the chase of Truth?
It may be time to stop diddling around trying to make Our falsehoods sound real enough for Increasingly Illumined sheep to follow.
It may be time to wake up from our dreamtime hell, Smell the roses, do-the-do, and finish playing in the sand box.
