The Separation between State and Religion

In time we will realize that Democracy is the entitlement of individuals to every right that was in its times alloted to kings. The right to speak and decide, to be treated with decency, to serve and be served by people in a State of “love” that is, to serve with one’s work for the development of ‘life’. To belong to the Kingdom of Human Beings without racial, national, social or academic separations. To love and be loved. To die at the service of the whole and be honored in one’s death, for one’s life and work was legitimately valued. To be graceful and grateful. To have the pride and the humility of being One with the Universe, One with every realm of Existence, One with every living and deceased soul. To treat with dignity and be treated with dignity for One is dignified together with All others and Life itself. To walk the path of compassion, not in the sorrow of guilt but in the pride of being. To take responsability for one’s mistakes and sufferings and stand up again and again like a hero and a heroine and face the struggle that is put at one’s feet and in one’s hands. Millions of people, millions and millions of people might take many generations to realize the consciousness of our humaneness but there is no other dignified path for the human being.

The “work” as I conceive it is psychological and political. Psychology is the connection between the different dimensions within one’s self and Politics is the actualization of that consciousness in our practical lives. Religion is the ceremony that binds the connectedness between the individual and the Universe. The separation between religion, politics and science, the arts and sports is, in the sphere of the social, the reflection of the schizophrenia within the individual and the masses. The dialogue between individuality and the "human" belongs to consciousness. The tendency to develop cults resides in the shortcomings we’are finding in life as it is structured today. “Life” has become the private property of a few priviledged who cannot profit from it because as soon as it is appropriated it stops to be “life” or “life-giving”.

We are all the victims of our own invention and each one is called upon to find solutions. The only problem is believing our selves incapable of finding them. We are now free to use all Systems of knowledge objectively, sharing them without imposing our will on each other. To become objective about our lives means to understand that the institutions that govern its experience are critically important. That we are one with the governments, one with the religious activities that mark its pace, that the arena’s in which we move our bodies and the laboratories in which we explore our possibilities are ALL part and parcel of our own personal responsibility. That WE ARE ONE WITH EACH OTHER AND EVERYTHING AROUND US and acknowledge for ourselves a bond of love in conscious responsibility. That we human beings know ourselves part of each other and are willing and able to act on our behalf for the benefit of each and every individual. That we no longer allow governments, industries, universities or any other institution to run along unchecked by the objective principles of humaneness. That we do not allow gurus to abuse their power or governors to steal the taxes and use them to their personal advantage in detriment of the whole. That we do not allow abuse from anyone anywhere because life is too beautiful to do so and that we are willing to stop the rampant crime with the necessary compassion Conscious knowledge is every individual's right. Conscious action is every individual's duty.

Viewers!
Oh James, talking about Old FOF, Bruce, Vena and others is not talking badly about them! They are all very fine people, they are just not as fine as they can be. Life is like an instrument that we spend the whole of our lives tuning into. Why do you expect them or me to be a finished project when we’re only stepping on our fifties and sixties? Isn’t being brilliant enough? Does one also have to be perfect? Like angels? Not humans?

James Mclemore – September 11, 2009
I just quickly scanned and skimmed Elena’s new blog. Once was enough for me. There are attacks on Bruce, Ames, Old FOF, and Vena. Although each of these people’s voices are quite different, they are some of the most eloquent and powerful posters that the blog has had. Again, imho, if we begin doing that, and judging each other it will weaken what the blog is immensely. We can and will disagree and call bullshit on each other and argue, but I would save the personal attacks and judgements for the shills and apologists that come here to disrupt.
My personal point of view:
On both sides shattering.
I put a question to both of them.
What is it deep inside you what let you disapprove some special words written by the other part/ner?
Hi Dragon,
I don't understand your question well enough so my answer might not be good enough. In relation to James Mclemore he writes:
"I just quickly scanned and skimmed Elena’s new blog. Once was enough for me. There are attacks on Bruce, Ames, Old FOF, and Vena.

Everything he's saying is valid for Ames, Old FOF, Vena and Bruce but wasn't valid when they threw me out! What could I approve?
What's amazing is the way things weave themselves out: how what is valid for some is not for others, how subjective we are in adapting our points of view to what is convenient to our personal interests and how even more amazingly the real issues continue to survive in no matter who's voice.
I would much appreciate hearing what you find "shattering". What I find shattering is that someone as respectable as Old FOF would use exactly the same tactics to throw me out of the blog that Robert Burton used against members when they dissented. What makes you think that I could ever approve of that?
To understand what's been happening on the blog you cannot just look at our struggle against the FOF, you also have to see the struggle between each other here. The latter one is even more important than the former because that one shows who we are today and sadly enough we're still holding to cult behavior with equal vehemence. THAT is why people are unable to take serious action against the Fellowship cult.
Anyway, please do clarify your question a little more so that hopefully I can offer you a better answer. I think you need to click Sign in and click New Post at the top of the page to be able to do so. I have no experience in managing these things but I've opened it for anyone to post understanding they don't even have to sign in. I don't need people's addresses, nor do I have them in the FREE sitemeter that's on.
