The ultimate flaw in any theory, by virtue of the human condition to which all of us are bound, is the mental projection of humanness onto all that we perceive. Christianity exemplifies this point quite nicely; their God is omniscient, omnipotent & omnipresent. Similar to Terence McKenna, I believe that this is merely a reflection of the psychological neurosis Christianity & the male ego dominator complex has been founded on. They have ascribed qualities to their God which reflect the Faustian impulse which modern man has come to embrace as a collective ideology for the Western front of civilisation.
With the advent of the Faustian impulse comes the unfortunate but predictable florescence of the Baconian impulse. Man has signed a contract with his individual ego, cankering his consciousness & repudiating the fact that life feeds on life in an endless process of give & take. We as a species have blindsighted ourselves to the point A & the telos of point B in our individual life spans, forgetting the collective nature of being. Interconnectedness must replace personal gain, we must strive to realise that we are all one and the same & that love can unite us all. We need to strip ourselves bear of our human constructs such as mass society & government because universally they don't exist - they're constructs of the human mind. The western lives we live are artificially built in order to regulate, manipulate, control & ultimately suppress the inner dialogue of spirit that allows us to truly see what it is to just be. We have become testtube babies; we are the babies & society is our testtube as it stabilises our fickle independance.
Unconditional love is the birthright of any organism as we are merely beings, in a vortex of energy, attempting to achieve all that we can within the limitations & propriety of our natural order. How can we ever do anything wrong, in a universal sense, if we don't have the answers? If we can't see the grid of wires underneath the board then how can anyone be at fault for manipulating the machine in the wrong way? This notion does not excuse nor justify the presence of evil, greed, hatred, violence, prejudice etc it merely illustrates how pointless they are when we could all collectively be getting on with evolving as a race. We need to mute the peopleness of us humans for just a moment & remember that we are human beings & that we have crippled the entelechy of our nature to evolve.
