Just a little video that calls into question the roll of religion in the world. It suggests that through the ages gods have been accepted as truth with the promoted belief in the virtue and sanctity of faith. Furthermore, it implies that religions(institutionalized beliefs) are constructs of man that can be usurped or precipitated, embellished and changed as seen necessary by the disproportionately privileged (ultra-elite) to maintain social order and build empire. Moreover, it causes one to think that modern gods are simply the most familiar face and disposition (human) imposed on the realm of the unknown and unexplained for arrogant egotistical reasons. It also suggests that some gods were made by man in the image of man for the sake of men rather than man being made by god in the image of god for the sake of god. Could it be the ultimate tool crafted and maintained(maybe stumbled upon) by ruling conspirators to manufacture and pray on humanities biggest insecurities in order to create a state of universal stratification and the consequent artificial chaos that follows? Is this artificial chaos then governed and controlled by the same enlightened rulers for the supposed benefit of the people by appropriately appointed, obediently conservative agents? Indeed, a mass conspiracy without merit or the cap stone of a pyramid called realism?
Maybe, authority coupled with faith is the root of humanities anguish and stagnation. Couldn’t faith be interpreted as “the firm belief in something for which you have no proof”? Moreover, couldn’t indoctrination be a way of building and maintaining empires by populating it with unquestioning, fearful, dutiful servants? Nietzsche once said that faith means not wanting to know. Faith is 'don't let those pesky facts get in the way of our political plan or our mystically ordained path to heaven'. Indoctrination could easily be seen as the quintessential form of manipulation, control, and deceit. Who is indoctrinating us: a God or people in positions of authority? Who is really governing us: God or people in positions of authority? I guess your answer depends on the extent of your faith. The good thing about answering questions with the guidance of religion is it always seems to provoke a considerably more palatable answer. An answer that doesn't evoke change.
