What religion and religious leaders did to us.....

What religion and religious leaders did to us.....
What religion and religious leaders did to us was wrong.

They indoctrinated us instead of pushing us to see and reflect and to know wisdom by wisdom.

Almost every parent called their children to loyalty to some group with some leaders not appointed by God and all that got mixed up with the leaders appointed by God who are just special in name while in practice, it's the fallible non-appointed leaders who are followed.

They pushed us to testify to a religion in ignorance, while we weren't aware of proofs nor did they present those proofs as they themselves are unaware of the, while the true religion would forbid testifying to a religion without knowledge.

I understand - religious people are insincere to the truth.

I understand, you see me as just another one of these self-deceiving people who immerse themselves in love of their flock and do away with the reality of their religions and what they teach.

Or you see me as some rebel against all religious people and say why does he think he is so unique in how he approaches religion?

When we structure ourselves to follow fallible leaders, the whole argument for need of guidance from God comes crumbling down, and we become a bunch of hypocrites paying lip service to the leadership of the Prophets and chosen Guides.

There is no escaping it. Past that, you are probably wondering there others like me who have similar attitude but have come to different conclusions. 

And you are right in all that.

But let us twist this around - suppose there was a way to know the true path humanity must take. Suppose there was a true religion and it has been proven by the one who allowed the mess we are in to happen. That has designated a way out of the garbage that yes he is allowed to happen. Allowed not in the sense didn't try to get us to follow a different way, but allow, in the sense, humans are allowed to fail despite his grace and compassion on us.

Suppose there was a way to recognize the connection and navigators who we are suppose to center our attention on.

Suppose leadership doesn't have to be garbage in and garbage out and same shit all over the place. 

Suppose it was a trust to exalted purified souls who God knew would not swerve left and right from the centre point of ascension.


Wil you mix in garbage and garbage out leaders with the pure souls that have been entrusted with true wisdom and chosen for the task to guide us and connect the verses of God so who can truly recite it as it meant to be recited?
