So what’s the plan? We have seen how they are trying to do away with spirituality and replace it with morality. What’s that about? How will it work? Perhaps we can predict the outcome by recognizing the larger pattern.
Under the old spiritual model if we give in to our human passions and desires we are immoral. If we develop strength of will, resisting our human passions and desires, and instead follow the still small voice of our conscience that speaks within our hearts we are acting in a moral way. No wait! I have that wrong! If we follow the 10 Commandments or some other religious doctrine that tells us what is right and what is wrong, then we are acting in a moral way. So being moral means to follow the law, God’s law.
This is an important clue! Apparently immorality is about breaking the law, not about whether the law is just or unjust, God’s law or human law. If you break the law you are not moral! It’s all black and white, that simple! That means good is nothing other than legality and morality is nothing other than adherence to the law. And the person who carries the law most strongly within their heart is the one who is the most moral! So we have come to the point where we are supposed to ” live for the law”.
But what if you don’t like the new law? What if you feel it is wrong down deep in your heart? That doesn’t matter! The morality of the law is to be held intact regardless of your own feelings about it! But what if your own will is so strongly opposed to it that you need to resist? Oh, that’s easy! You can beg for mercy, or beg for forgiveness, or beg to be released. Good luck with that!
In a land of censorship like we are fast approaching, the person who evades censorship is acting immorally and the person who accepts censorship is acting morally. What about the person who sets up an underground press? You would have to call him or her immoral and imprudent as well, especially if they let themselves get caught!
Or perhaps you can do what I’m trying to do, using new words in new ways to share new thoughts!
