Remnants of Glastonbury Abbey
The excuses we invent to create loopholes to the golden rule are graduated in proportion
to the degree of the indignity we inflict. For example,
➤ we demonize our enemies to justify killing them;
➤ we dehumanize captives to justify enslaving them;
➤ we disparage victims of discrimination to rationalize exploiting them;
➤ we dismiss people as nobodies to justify discounting their views.
"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" is, among other things, the fundamental law of reciprocal indignity.
The symmetry undergirding the golden rule is the assumption of equal dignity for all.
Breaking the cycle of indignity and violence is a dignitarian application of "turn the other cheek."
As reciprocal dignity becomes the norm, the roles we play in co-creating and maintaining each others' identities become clear, and "love thy neighbor as thyself" begins to look like an obtainable ideal.
Robert W. Fuller, Ph.D. robertworksfuller.com (*1936) US American professor of physics, college president, dignity and rankism researcher, lecturer, author, Rankism vs. the Golden Rule, presented by LA Progressive, 3. May 2013

Ende der Religionen

Siehe auch: H.H. 14. Dalai Lama, Alexander Norman, contributor, Beyond Religion. Ethics for a Whole World, Mariner Books, 2011, reprint edition 6. November 2012

Alle großen Weltreligionen mit der Betonung auf Liebe Mitgefühl, Geduld, Toleranz und Vergebung können innere Werte fördern. Die Realität unserer heutigen Welt ist jedoch, dass es nicht mehr zeitgemäß ist, Ethik auf Religionen zu gründen. Daher bin ich zunehmend überzeugt, dass die Zeit reif ist, einen Ansatz zu finden, über Spiritualität und Ethik gänzlich jenseits von Religion nachzudenken. Dalai Lama XIV. (Tenzin Gyatso) [Tanchu Dhondup] (*1935) tibetischer Mönch, geistliches Oberhaupt des tibetischen Buddhismus, Linienhalter der Gelug-Schule, Friedensnobelpreisträger, 1989, Facebook Kommentar, 10. September 2012

Islamistischer Terror

Der islamistische Terror ist ebenso wenig eine Konsequenz des Islam, welche – wie dann behauptet wird – dessen innere Wahrheit enthüllt, wie die Autodafés der Inquisition die "Wahrheit" der katholischen Kirche oder die Hexenverbrennungen die "Wahrheit" des Protestantismus enthüllt haben. Sicherlich ist zu untersuchen, warum es in derartigen Glaubensrichtungen zu derartigen Pervertierungen hat kommen können, aber deswegen den ersten Schritt jeder Vernunft zu verweigern, nämlich zu unterscheiden zwischen Protestantismus und organisiertem Hexenwahn, zwischen Katholizismus und dem Terror der Inquisition, und eben auch zwischen Islam und Islamismus, ist völlig unvernünftig und humanistisch inakzeptabel. Prof. Frieder Otto Wolf (*1943) deutscher Honorarprofessor für Philosophie, Freie Universität Berlin, Humanist, Politikwissenschaftler, Politiker, Pegida: "Das ist nicht nur inhuman, sondern ganz bewusst antihuman", präsentiert von Humanismus.de, 8.

General quotes

Personal avowal

I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church.
All national institutions of churches, whether Jewish, Christian or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit. Thomas Paine [US Founding Father] (1737-1809) British US American Enlightenment philosopher, inventor, atheist intellectual, radical, revolutionary, pamphleteer, author, The Age of Reason. Being an Investigation of True and Fabulous Theology'', deistic pamphlet, part 1, section 1, published in three parts in 1794, 1795, and 1807

I have learned so much from God that I can no longer call myself a Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim, a Buddhist, a Jew. The Truth has shared so much of Itself with me that I can no longer call myself a man, a woman, an angel, or even a pure Soul. Love has befriended me so completely it has turned to ash and freed me of every concept and image my mind has ever known. Hafez (1325/26-1389/90) Persian Sufi mystic, lyric poet, aphorism

If the skulls of the people who have been killed in the name of God, Jesus, and Allah in religious wars and persecutions could be piled in one place, they would form an immense mountain. If we tallied the cost in human suffering for the belief in monotheism, we might not think of the other religions of the world as primitive. Leonard Shlain, M.D. sextimeandpower.com (1937-2009) US American chairman of laparoscopic surgery, associate professor of surgery, UC San Francisco, researcher, writer, The Alphabet Versus the Goddess. The Conflict Between Word and Image, Alphabetvsgoddess.com, Penguin, 1. September 1999

Astrotheology

The three revelatory book religions worship Sun, Moon, Saturn and Venus.

[At winter solstice on December 25th the Christians] celebrate God's sun's birthday. And [90 days later, a square 90° angle further] as it passes over the Equator we celebrate the spring equinox we call it a passover, because the sun is passing the Equator coming back to the Northern hemisphere. [...] The Jews call it Passover [celebrating Easter]. [...] We Christians have an Easter sun rise service. Christianity is sun worship. […] Christianity is worshipping the sun [the risen sun aka Son of God], while Jews are worshipping Saturn and the Moon, while the Islamic world is worshipping Isis or worshipping Venus. And Venus [Morning and evening star] is called Lucifer.

Sizes of major religious groups, status 2010

In 2010 54,2% of the world's population adhered to the Abrahamic religions.² The so-called book religions teach that believers will go to another plane of existence after death, as determined by a divine judgment based on the quality of their deeds in this (single) life.

In 2010 23,4% of world population adhered to Dharmic Indian religions.³ Dharmic religions teach that believers will reincarnate in due time after death and continue in a succession of lives on earth, eventually leading to liberation. The circumstances of the new incarnation are based on the quality of living in prior lives.

In summary, more than four fifths (80%) of the world’s populace believes there is an afterlife and that what they do in this lifetime greatly matters.

Organized truth (religion)

Portrait of maharaja Ranjit Singh, ruler of the Punjab (1801-1839)

The devil and a friend of his were walking down the street, when they saw ahead of them a man stoop down and pick up something from the ground, look at it, and put it away in his pocket.
The friend said to the devil,

"What did that man pick up?"

"He picked up a piece of Truth,"

said the devil.

"That is a very bad business for you, then,"

said his friend.

"Oh, not at all,"

the devil replied,

"I am going to let him organize it."
