What Does God Want?

What Does God Want From Us?

Reading through the ancient texts and listening to multiple differing religions speak, they seem to be saying that God has given humans their freedom to choose. Psalm 51 is a good exposition of this. From this I presume that:

So why then, do religious people say we must obey God, if he has clearly stated he wants us to be free? Why are religious people horrified at the thought that God does not want us to obey him?

I can only suggest this is because people prefer slavery, with its powerful master, more than we want autonomy and freedom.

And for those people who do not believe in a metaphysical God, they merely choose a material world master: the state, a cult, or political party...any ideology or authority which creates a Master of some kind for us to obey. Atheism is a classic exposition of this collective neurosis.

My view is that God, if he exists, wants our autonomy and he says this clearly. That is, he wants us individually to make up our own minds about how we are and to perform our duty in the world and meet our obligations to others. Duty and obligation of the corollaries of freedom, without which this hallowed freedom is meaningless.

We don't have to obey anything or anyone, before ourselves. This is not a call out for anarchy, which in itself is just another earth bound Master. It's saying look inside for the answers, not out there to a teacher, a guru a despotic father figure - this activity cannot be taught, it cannot be earned, we do not deserve its benefits. It just is.

And if we chose slavery instead and try to obey him, then he will just shrug his shoulders - there's nothing more he can now do for us - he tried. All he wants is our autonomy. To punish us for getting that wrong is circular, he does not care if we choose slavery, that is entirely a matter for us to face the consequences of.

PETITION: Government to Indicate Countries of the UK Are Open to Accede to the US

A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States Executive Summary This initiative seeks to foster a formal dialogue regarding the potential accession of the countries of the United Kingdom , to the United States , as individual states. Simply put, this petition is asking the government to start a conversation about the benefits of leaving the UK and joining the United States. The objective is to evaluate the benefits to citizens and stakeholders, encouraging a constructive discourse on the political, economic, and social implications of such a union. If Wales , Northern Ireland , Scotland , or England were to leave the United Kingdom, it would end their system of constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy . Instead, if they joined the United States as separate states, they would govern themselves under the U.S. federal system while receiving its protection. This proposal recognises that immediate change is unlikely but urges a serious conversation to addres...

The 450 Volt Truth: From Orwell to Obedience

A Complete Thread on Dystopia, Milgram, and Breaking the Agentic State - Why People Act Irrationally and Often Violently When a Tribal Social Structure and Its Hierarchy Are Brought Under Serious Scrutiny This is a tricky topic. Please read the Obedience Glossary of Terms before proceeding Executive Summary This piece was written from a long conversation with Grok. I had to interrogate the AI quite a bit. And was astonished at how it produced such intelligence. I've included the most pertinent parts. Do not be fooled into thinking this is just another Orwell analysis. That is just setting the scene well. For what comes later on the agentic state and how power uses it to control the masses. It may not have all the answers. It might wrong. A lot of it is very hard to believe is happening. But it still seems to fit the bizarre world of system wide dissonance we all live and partake in today, better than all the alternatives. So deserves your continued attention. By all means make yo...

Facing Draco, Mining Dorado - The 2026 Great Recession

This is a proposal to show how the 18.6 year real estate cycle is a hang over from times where the mechanics of the lunar month were used by high priests of the time to forecast ancient agricultural cycles - what we would today call a business cycle always culminating in a financial crisis and great recession. The 18.6 year astronomical period is governed by the intersection of lunar and solar eclipses. It is known scientifically as the Saros Cycle. Where all 3 harmonics of the orbit of the moon coincide once every 18.6 years. The ancient scholars knew this and had been measuring it for aeons. And the politicians of the time used it to name the day when the economy had to be deliberately reset by fiat. This reset was necessary because they noticed around 19 years is as long as an economy can survive when being unjustly abused by its people. Any longer making it too late to recover on its own. And without the reset much worse effects emerge. They knew this. They did not know why. They j...
