THEISM VERSUS SECULARISM ..... part two.
All religions, and more so the three monotheistic ones held women in a condition of undeclared slavery, made women an afterthought in the creation, labeled her as the author of sin in direct collusion with the devil, deserving a just punishment for affecting the downfall of man.
It all belonged to an exclusive masculine religion, typified in the Hebraic books by an elusive historic grand figure personified in a Moses and later his many and often contradictory prophets, in the new testament it was Peter and Paul following Jesus steps and sermons and teachings And finally, all Muslem interpreters, claiming to follow literally their prophet's sacred words and deeds, through the direct words of God, closed the doors for any new prophets or godly representatives.
All religions falsely claimed that they represent the words of God, their books and their interpreters were women's biggest problem, they were man-made inventions that relegated women as well as other religions adherents to second and third class status. Every self proclaimed theologian of these ancient religions is still desperately trying to chain us to the past, and not address any works for human betterment,
Take our present Corona virus pandemic, I haven't heard one religious figure come up with any rational explanation or solution. They all do not dare to address or challenge the superstition, hypocrisy and sham that always created and ended in barbarism, cruelty, inquisitions, invasions of all others, apartheid, brutality, massacres and annihilation.
Here in the U.S. many states still require a religious test or declaration of belief in God, and in some instances Jesus and the trinity when applying to an official public office or political appointment , Betsy Devos, the secretary of education in the glorified Trump administration, claims that the school and classroom should instill an advocacy of the "Advance of God's kingdom" with assault arms in the hands of teachers and students to protect it all . But not a secular belief grounded on sciences, common sense, equity and justice, love of humanity and compassion, outside of religion.
It is funny though, to observe how every minority , or person of color when addressing any issue, believe they are the true and sole representatives of their communities, the same exactly applies to Christianity, Judaism and Islam, every spokesman believes that he or she do represent the entire community of his constituency, even the entire believers of his or her creed. Israel is a prime and fantastic example, and the Islamic world comes second.
Few words describing the huge influence still exercised by religions and religious figures in our modern societies, and our lives. My usual many thanks to all my good friends across the world.
