“For the brain to think, it has to be deceived
This is not God's law. Every person has a choice how to behave. In the Bible...
Look, all the biblical ideas came from one scientist. His name was Zarathustra. He was called by one king, who wanted to organize the work of his subjects with minimal costs, so that they would not work under pressure, but themselves. The king paid Zarathustra properly, and he came up with the Unitarian religions with the Ten Commandments. People who profess such a religion become guilty from the moment they are born. But this is all a mockery of people. And it was invented by one person to control fools.
Maybe it’s good that they all came up with this. What would be the point of living without religion?
But because it is very difficult to explain to fools that it is impossible to steal and kill. They don't understand. They want to eat and they want to live. And yet they don’t want to do anything. This is the law of primates. You and I (in a confidential whisper) are primates. And since it is impossible to convince everyone not to steal or kill, a system of ethical values was invented that costs absolutely nothing, but in which one must believe. Do you understand? Religions are a way of non-forcefully organizing a flock of sheep into a certain manageable group. Why do you think religions were created?
I don't know why they were created, but...
To separate the smart from the fools. Because there are always about a thousand times fewer smart people.
What, none of the smart people believe in God?
Then I treat myself like a fool.
Well, you just have to work on yourself.
What if a person lives alone and does not have to obey anyone? For example, monks who accept the schema...
And this is the same as getting into a 600 Mercedes. No difference. Simeon the Stylite, who sat on the pillar for over thirty years, was doing the same thing as the young man in the Lamborghini in Switzerland. Showing off... This is not just my position or my delusion. My position is manifested in practice. That is, in the most practical way - in everyday life. I can predict the result, but someone who goes to a synagogue, for example, cannot. This advantage, unfortunately, comes at a very high cost. Because in any science there are two criteria: prediction of the result and the method of a known additive. If we change the input conditions of any event by a certain amount, then the result should change proportionally.
That is, the smart ones control events, while the stupid ones don’t understand anything and pray to God.
Yes, unfortunately. What can you do..."
