Christianity

Religion is flawed. When human beings try to define or “pin-down” spiritual things they corrupt them. When you love something so much that you take it out of it’s natural habitat and place it in a cage to control it, you can’t help but destroy it’s essence. No matter how hard you try not to, you will change it, the walls of it’s cage becoming it’s very definition. God has no boundaries and is undefinable. How can you define something which lies outside our 3-dimensional perception?

Lucretius (99 BC – 55 BC) said:

Tantum religio potuit saudere malorum (Too much religion is apt to encourage evil)

And he was right despite not having seen what was to come courtesy of the Abrahamic traditions.

Metareligion
This blog is not out to ‘get religion’ like some visitors have insinuated, this blog is trying to bring forward what I call a ‘meta-religion’ or the religion behind all religions…if that is indeed possible. I’m not talking about the so-called Golden Rule either, that is a morality code. Metareligion is the undefinable which drives our search for meaning. As such metareligion must remain undefined…for to define it would be to corrupt it.

The Nous Age Principle, at it’s basis, is a declaration that we are all one…that we are connected in a fundamental yet deeply profound way. Religions tell us “we are all one…if you believe like we do”. By defining yourself this way you are putting yourself into a cage.

Rise Up
By bringing spirit down to our level, by defining it in our terms, we destroy it. Spirit cannot survive on our level, if anything, we have to rise up to meet it.

Welcome to The Nous Age, it’s here if you want it!

The closer we get to that date the more the event becomes clearer in my mind, December 21, 2012 the supposed end date of the Mayan calendar. Hollywood has turned it into the literal catastrophic end of the world, throwing away it’s true meaning as the end of an age…and the start of a new one.

Is It The Rapture?
I have spent much time deprogramming my family and friends from this mis-conception about the end of the Mayan calendar, driven largely in the U.S. by the extremist Christian idea of “The Rapture“. These Christians who have infected Western media (and collective mind) with their warped idea of Christianity have turned an entire generation into cowering ignoramuses.

I have studied the work of John Major Jenkins, José Argüelles, Gregg Braden, Peter Russell and many others with insightful opinions and have come to the conclusion that:

(1) whatever is going to happen on that date has already begun, that it will be the peak of the event…and that

(2) if something is going to happen it will be a good thing and not what Hollywood or the Christian right are championing.

I have also discovered that we have the choice to believe or not.

My Hope
My hope is that in this new age, we as a species will come to accept our connection to each other and everything around us. That nature and the world is not something outside of us. That we are not apart from nature, but instead, that we are a part of nature and as such have a responsibility to take care of each other and our world. If we can agree that we are all made of the same God stuff, doesn’t that make it easier to see how we are all connected? Then how is it that we lost this sense of connectedness? Materialism, commercialism perhaps…?

The Nous Age
There is no way to stop our date with destiny…so sit back and enjoy the ride. The Nous Age is Here…if you want it!
