The State With Absolute and Unconditional Power

How Does Authority Moderate a Great Masse of People Who Have Turned Away From God?

Firstly, I am not religious, nor do I believe in God...whatever that is. This is not to be critical of the idea of God. I'm simply telling you my position on that visionary rumour.

But a higher authority, even if an imaginary one, will moderate large groups of people into obedience as the best available alternative. That is, people are less likely to break the law and so on, if they believe a higher authority than the state is extant. I do not think this is a good or a bad thing. It is simply observed.

So yes, I believe this is a terrible socially constructed mistake. I believe God does not want our obedience - God wants our autonomy. 

Annoyingly, this higher and possibly imaginary power we call God is still better than the next best alternative - the state which has adopted God's absolute and unconditional power, on the earth only. The trouble with the state is that people have never respected it, yet obey it nonetheless because civilisation has not found a better earthly alternative in ten thousand years.

So what happens when this great masse of people has turned away from God?

The state becomes the highest authority in the eyes of the people

The state, though respected less than God used to be, also has only one way to moderate the people - obedience. 

And the conditioning we all wilfully accept from this earthly authority insists he *does* want our obedience. So that the state can unjustly maintain at least some Power. And this is a lie we - the great masse of people, deliberately accept to escape from complicity. 

Do not confuse wealth and power with authority here. Authority is not individual billionaire globalist overlords - they are fat, sexually perverted weaklings in comparison. It is the great masse of people who hold ultimate power on the earth. And this power can be observed objectively, as a fact of the collective psyche if you care to take a look at it happening right in front of your own face.

This is why you will only find the blind and those who need raising from the dead projecting blame onto wealth and power - they are simply trying to escape in a public yet highly dishonourable display of obedience signalling.

De facto authority is all powerful yet unconscious of its own power - in archetypal form that we call 'the people' collectively. Without this 'higher authority' we call God, the civilisation which allows the state to rule them is indeed in a very great deal of trouble existentially.

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...

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...

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview?

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview? I didn't. But it's when I believe my worldview, is truth, that I become violent without realising it. This is extremely hard for people to accept as possible. The resistance to seeing it and the temptation to escape from looking, is built into its foundations. So, I never said worldviews are bad for us. I did say that when I believe my worldview is a fact, then "I" become root cause of the worlds problems. Thought creates an image of the world. Then thought worships the image that thought created. I am scared of death. So I create an existential worldview about immortality - an image. This can be a God, a political ideology, scientific religiosity, atheism, planet saving activism, anything which my fear of death can hide behind. So if I do 'good' through this image I created, I will ultimately get a 'seat on the right hand side of God' , or whatever the image I created has defined as heaven. Then I w...
