Perhaps the greatest shortcoming of humanity is the propensity of its members to blindly and obediently follow in the footsteps of leadership that is as lacking in vision and moral certitude as they are. This will continue to be the case until enough of us have gained the knowledge and conviction to assume responsibility for our own lives that we are able to stem this tide of dependence and servitude to inept leaders who pander to weakness as a justification for their existence. We will all be subjected to the flames of the hell thus created licking at our heels until we learn to liberate ourselves from the chains that bind us to the status quo. Such liberation will not be obtained with countless reinterpretations of the scriptures that have lead us down this dead end of subservience to arcane principles. A fresh new look at and respect for human potential is in order and long overdue. We must find the courage to step out from under the thumb of a non-existent God and accept that we alone as individuals are the pavers of our own destiny.
The best interests and wellbeing of humanity is not served by conformity to the least among us or the dictates of a nonexistent God. We are obliged, for our own sake, to conform only to the reality that provides us with the opportunity to grow and prosper; the reality that rewards us for our efforts to reveal and achieve the best within us.
