As the environment becomes more inhospitable, the more people need to work together and depend on one another. 

A healthy organized religion will provide rules and a standard of behavior that increases the efficiency and accuracy of those who choose to be members. (To force people to adhere to rules they do not value is to plant the seeds of our own demise.)

Religion is an intricate formula of rites, rituals, and norms that enable people to build and maintain a complex society. A religion does not require a theology, or belief in a God.

As populations increase and environments degrade becoming more inhospitable, there is a point in the curve where pure freedom is not an option anymore. After that point there is only Fascism or Socialism.

Socialism is a healthy religion that people choose to be a part of.

Fascism (The end, natural expression of authoritarianism.) is a system of laws imposed on people without their understanding or approval.

Each culture will have its own unique way to manifest socialism or fascism that is natural to them.


The story of God, from God’s perspective, is the story of parenthood; the story of evil learning to be good. As societies evolve they must go through a reoccurring process that starts with fascism and ends with socialism. For this to happen, an authoritarian agency must push people out of the status quo. If this push does not happen intentionally, then civilization’s development is limited by the natural feast and famine cycle.

This is not to say that the public should acquiesce to fascism, but to fight it with willful intention by driving forwards, not backwards,.. in their own terms.
