Riffing off of the above, Cherub...and your comments on humanism being an ideology of identifying oneself as a part of humanity at large. Why, yes! Part of being human is to -be- a human creature, with all of the delicious (and sometimes sorrowful) interelationships with each other and all other life in our periphery..as well as our communal dependency on this little marble that we find ourselves perilously clinging to in a sea of empty and hostile space.
It is how I see myself, and it's so meaningful to me that I engage in those relationships for a living. I also advocate for them locally and regionally, volunteering my time in presentation and in the preparation, trying to bring more people into that fold and showing them how a greater wealth and happiness and health can be produced by minding those interrelationships. I raise my children with this explicitly in mind. The idea that I will one day..in effect, go back to earth from whence I came and no more doesn;t fill me with dread, but with ideological satisfaction in that I'll have completed that circle. I like to get drunk and hug the earth. I like to stand in the rain and pound on the clouds.
What is it you do, again..what meaning have you found in the bloodgod? Do you bloodgod for a living? Do you volunteer for the bloodgod? Do you raise your children as bloodgodists? Is your highest aim to one day find yourself poured down the bloodhole for bloodgod? If you can answer yes to all of these questions..and I doubt that you can do so without significant bullshitting..then all you'll have managed to do is establish your bloodgodism as an equal to my humanism. Good job, bloodgodism is still shitty, lol.
