Religious Tyranny, Political or Spiritual?
My Spatheist Perspective
My Perpetual Perspective was formed from a Robert Hand talk in 1996 —
“The physical world is the feminine aspect of god.”
Jesus came along to tell us to “make the two into one.” We are still not listening.
The Western world’s story about an Abrahamic Singletary Creator has framed all of the Western World’s institutions.
The Eastern world’s perspective is quite different. Without Abe alone in the desert, talking to his one sky-dude, the people of the East share stories that connect them rather than separate them. I am particularly noting China, as I am fond of the Taoist perspective, which is in my humble opinion a hidden trinity, not at all dualistic. And then there’s India with the many characters with so many arms! Ah multiplicity. Multipolarity? Ahem.
Perspective From The Deep
I make my claims from my own Piscean perspective which I call “the big fuzzy picture formed inside the Egg Mother who contains all things and non-things.” You have no idea how difficult this writing is for a dancer in the dark, swept by deep ocean currents. For me, writing is agony. These inadequate symbols do no justice to the aromas on the edge of ocean breeze.
I am forced to sit here and type. My Left Brain is a tyrant who insists on being heard, or read.
Astrologese: The boss of my world is Mercury in the twelfth house in it’s antithetic sign, Taurus. Answer: Conundrum. But if you are not an astrologer, read on because I am an adequate translator.
So much Idolatry, so little time
As far as we in the West know, there is One Guy in the Sky, a Singleton Source, who made everything all by himself. He. Him. His. Period.
If you are atheist, then your Singleton Source is Science.
If you are New Age he is The Universe — Source Energy.
If you are intellectual he is the Knowledge found in books.
If you are political, he is “my party loyalty.”
If you are Catholic, he is the Pope.
If you are rich, he is Capitalism.
If you are poor, he is … I don’t know this answer. Do You?
Single Creator ideologies tend to create gangster entities.
They can justify murder, theft, bullying and revenge, all in the name of their special stories. Their ideas become things to fight over. To fight for.
So ideas exist? We cannot touch them. They have no flavor, no texture. We fight for no-thing. We believe in no-thing. Just that One No-Thing, which does not exist alone, yet we pretend that it does. The absent father who loves us and punishes us and forgives us.
That brings me to ….
Ai is a digital gangster without a body, created by the boy side of our human brains.
Yes, girls have logic, too. And boys have right brains, too. Becuz Creation is its own God-self and we Humuns are the Moral Generators of it. If you are an asshole, you chose to be. So stop it. Or do it. But god didn’t tell you any-thing. You told yourself.
One third of all countries of the world are under U.S. gangster sanctions now, June of 2025. What gives our country the right to boss the world? I grew up hearing that we Americans are special; chosen to be “the city on the hill.”
The Chosen, The Others
As Americans we are chosen. Sound familiar? Jews were chosen. Christians were chosen. Muslims are chosen. The old testaments are loaded with righteous ethnic cleansings, from one culture to another. They ravage the unclean, the unchosen. If you ain’t with us, you’re agin us!
Othering
The biblical Ash Groves were cut and burned. Why? That was the location of godEss worship. The people of the godEss were cleansed of their impure practices. Why? Because left brain require proof and all it could see in the woods was a bunch of trees. The segmenting yang brain demands that the parts must be defined; period.
Forgiven For Our Flawed, Feminine Fallen Condition
“We are a Christian country!” We suffer from Lone Cowboy Syndrome (from my book, “Sex and The Single God”)
In America, we believe in the Unitary Executive theory, which can be best described as “Because I said so” doctrine. We got lucky and found a big stick to beat other countries with. Since the Big War, we have been drifting in that direction over the years and when Bush, the shrub, was in office it blossomed into open discussion.
Is this a Christian Nation? We hear that it is, but I am not a Christian? Are you?
I have named myself. Jewell, the faceted crystal; Starsinger, the singer who gazes at the stories emanating from the crystal.
I have named my religion. I am a Spatheist. A Spiritual Atheist. Let’s hear it for Atheism, which is the unbelief in the Elsewhere god of Abraham. Whatever comes from that release could make for a paradigm shift that we all can live with.
Yes, it can be confusing if you insist on making a list.
So don’t make a list. Step into the circle. Begin where you are, at the Begending. Everything begins and ends with you and me — in a moment.
Oh, yes! My mother was left handed and Autistic. She always complained that being left handed made her life harder in a world that is made by and for right handed people. I have taken that to the next level... Right brained/left brained, which are the opposite of their ruling polarities. So as a right handed person, most people are left-brained. The Lefties are right-brained.
But we can train ourselves to integrate the two brains when we become aware.
Reading the book, "The Alphabet VS. The Goddess" changed my perspective. Learning Astrology expanded my perspective. The Kabbalistic Tree of Life changed my perspective. Taoism changed my perspective.
Currently, I make it a practice to use my left hand on purpose, just because.
I am left-handed, and I think that it gives me a different perspective on things. You have a different and intriguing perspective.
