We Owe Nothing Part 2

Where we stand today, religion and it's attending cohorts have us all believing that we owe a moral monster worship, praise and obedience whilst also believing that we have free will. We believe that something went wrong and we all are culpable for it and so we require redemption by the death of a saviour that we flaunt with alacrity.

We contrived a place called hell, heaven, limbo, purgatory, nirvana, and such like to placate ourselves that we are but sorry excuses of beings. The madness intensified when a few of us pushed against all the hubris and then murder became a holy act to save the system. Politics came along and sank its fangs into our collective jugular.

Economics chimes in with its grandest stages of separatist profiling and its bounties held for the powerful elites. Heaven is touted as the reward for poverty on earth while the rich have a ball here. We agreed that all this was ok until some of us awoke to realise that a game was afoot and then the programming starts afresh.

The idea that something is owed and must be paid back with interest is an ideological poison that we keep administering to each other with fetid stupidity and we hurt. But the God we created and believe in demands a payment in forms that contain cringeworthy madness.

What do we owe? Who determines what is owed? How come it's not been paid after all this time? Do we really understand what is owed? Or is it all an illusion we continue to feed?
