Rather than to serve a Religious God first with your entire soul.
Is it not better to serve yourself first?
I will serve yourself first, in order to serve others better. It's not selfish, it's self serve.
Imagaination began all self and mankind's entire achievements.
For 95℅ of the time humans been on earth without Religion, military or Politics. This heirachary systems groups took over and always places you below them. Arch, no arch is below me and my arch is not above you.
Even Worst in the history of wars worldwide by far has been over imaginary friends. Besides wars solve nothing.
Did a sandsculpture that won the solo world championship called :The kingdom within: with your own archetype within yourself.
Can you be your own king of your domain Rather than enslaved into a heirachary system that is always above you?
Sorry but this strikes me as a somewhat disorganized review of the problem domain.
Division of labor and responsibility is a reality of living in a larger society. There's no inherent problem with participating in hierarchies or other cooperative arrangements; the problems arise when there are enough insincere / self-serving actors in the mix. This is why checks and balances exist and are constantly debated and refined. It's why we try to avoid concentrations of power. But the fact remains there are a lot of things that can only be done at the level of society and require some sort of cooperative arrangement and different individuals and groups giving up some preferences for the good of the whole.
Wars are caused by a lot of factors of which religion is both contributing to and being manipulated into -- as well as other players. It's difficult to quantify the culpability of religion in warfare and I think it tends to be overrated in that regard. The biggest wars (WW1 and 2) had religious and quasi-religious elements in play but were mostly an attempt by fascistic political groups to gain power on a world scale. It's no more right to lay that at the feet of religion exclusively than it is for theists to blame Stalinism or similar regimes on atheism.
I agree though that you cannot serve others unless you take care of yourself first, and have some sort of abundance out of which to give. These are simple pragmatic priorities.
In some parts and some degrees, I agree.
It always has been the collective consciousness to the level of 80℅ of the people throughout human History. Who have made positive changed when the heirachary system abuses too much so.
What if the Queen wants to be the manager from time to time??
The Queen and Governments belong to Corperationism. A club you nor I belong to. The same club they beat you up with everyday.
@Castlepaloma I read your comment 3 times to try to understand it.....but I think I got it! LOL
@vmedel
Thought you hightailed it, lol.
"Serve"????!!!! I ain't no servant!
Each of us need to serve somebody, is it not best to serve yourself first?
Nobody is the boss of me.
@Castlepaloma ummm, whom should I be serving, in your opinion?
@AnneWimsey
Only you know yourself greater than anyone else in the world. To know and serve yourself first is the beginning of working towards a means to an end or purpose in life on how to be serving other. Serving other well is really true freedom.
My top 3 means to an end out of 10 is love, health and freedom. All 3 works well with my self substainable eco villages and professional art, it's my center rather than a God.
