Dear Friends,
It seems to me, we have a rising religion in the world, no its not Islam, Christianity or Buddhism… it is Materialism. The Materialist religion has several sects. Unlike Christian and Islamic factions they don’t compete as much as cooperate. The modern materialist is every bit as zealous as a suicide bomber. Believing in Materialism with all their heart, they are impervious to logic… even while claiming to be rational. They use their logic to rationalize their ideology. Materialism however offers some pretty perverted moralities. From the absurdity of worshiping abortion, to the trans movement, materialists embrace egoism, ambition and hedonism as the highest virtues. History has shown us, pragmatically, that the results of Materialism are catastrophic… but a zealot is stone headed.
Materialism is proselytized in the public school system. In that way every child is exposed to the newly established State religion. Materialists cleverly use the Constitution’s freedom of religion, in a jujitsu move, to ban all religions from the public square, except materialism. In this way, the State discredits all other religions as myths, fables and fiction, claiming only materialism is real. It can be said that materialism is spread by the sword. In that materialists use fear, intimidation and violence to force others to remain silent else parrot their lie. As we see in the CCP, when materialists are ascendant, they are only too happy to use actual violence against people who believe other than they do. Including, but not limited to, burning churches, involuntary organ donation and outright genocide.
Materialism has several sects, Atheism, Agnosticism, Socialism, Post Modernism, Lucifarianism and Satanism. All are the rightful heirs of Materialism. Just as Protestantism is the descendant of Roman Catholicism, and Catholicism the child of Judaism. Each flavor of Materialism highlights an aspect of its nature. Lucifarianism is the belief that the snake in the Garden of Eden was the good guy. This is a descendant of Materialism, because it is rooted in the nihilistic premise that God is not supreme, that reality is only material, and thus our actions have no more effect than ripples on a pond. Atheism is obviously the bastard child of Materialism as is Agnosticism. Satanism is a wholesale abandoning of traditional morality in defiance of God himself. Post Modernism is the belief in, all at war with all.
Materialism always has resulted in human suffering on a munificent scale, but maybe it won’t sometime in the future. As Einstein said, “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.” Nevertheless a zealot cannot be dissuaded from the ideology that has captured them. Therefore, as long as we allow it, they will continue trying the same experiment over and over, expecting different results, and mankind suffering the consequences. The truly laughable thing about materialists, is that they claim to be enlightened, logical and rational. Yea, I agree, they use logic to rationalize their belief and no one arrogantly considers themselves enlightened, more than the dimwitted. The sad history of the Kulaks, Ukrainians, Chinese, Jews, Cambodians, etc… is not sufficient to change their minds.
Until we recognize that Materialism is a religion, we will never be able to deal with it, its adherents or the negative side effects. Our agreeableness is our undoing. When someone says something absurd, like Materialism is not a religion, and instead of calling them out as idiots, we couch our response with platitudes, we are abetting the swindle. By this fraud, the materialists have established Materialism as the State religion, and banned all others. Using tax money to spread their gospel of “Woke” in the public schools, media and universities, they are shameless, ruthless and effective. Isn’t it time to follow our Constitution, “un-establish” the established State religion of Materialism, and allow all religions to compete in the marketplace of ideas?
Sincerely,
John Pepin
