Your gift with words and how you choose to define ideas in a new light continues to amaze me.

Waiting for a "Nanny State From Heaven" accurately describes how religion is used to impose a passive mindset on people who are willing to accept it.

You're right, we all need to take responsibility. I think personal health plays a major roll. You need to be in control of what you consume physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. Unfortunately most of the people I know do not care enough about their own personal health to read an ingredients label on the food they buy. Again, as you brought up, cognitive dissonance is one of the main enemies.

The manifestation of the problem is the governing bodies. We need to take control of our own reality to invoke our true power. Unity on a community level is absolutely required!

Totally agree Max, hit the nail on the head again. Keep up the great work!

Thanks and love brother.
