- The word “God” is not mentioned in the US constitution. The US is a state that does not have a religion. Therefore US schools cannot teach children about the 10 commandments or anything else.
So this is something I can totally relate to. It’s also happening in Eastern Europe. It’s also happening here. This is not a crusade but there are people in the US who believe that their country should be a “Christian” country. You all probably know more about these evangelical approaches much better than I do.
- So all that I say applies to these guys too. Spirituality is an extremely personal and individual matter. All of its mechanisms are located inside of us not outside. So personally: I think I would be very angry with this 2025 law that was adopted in Texas. And even from here: I am not OK with the cancelation of the Roe v. Wade Law in 2022.
What I am saying is that you have to watch out for these guys. For me these are forms of organized evil. A group of people uniting and conspiring as a group to dictate what they see as right to the rest of the population or to the rest of the world. That’s exactly the way the Mullah’s of Iran are organizing.
My idea on that is that there should not be any “cosa nostra” style religious (or spiritual) organizations who are making decisions for all of us behind closed doors. I think it’s extremely arrogant for a group of indoctrinated people to even decide that their path is simply the true path and that everybody has to accept this one way or the other. Emperors of the past did not have that kind of authority if you see what I mean.
So that’s what I am referring to as Ragnarök. I think it is possible that the Saga’s were referring to our present time with all those frost giants attacking Asgard and killing the Gods one by one. To me it represents all those circle of power working for the interest or accordingly with the convictions of a limited number of people who are destroying all that is important to the common good one strike after another. (The Gods representing all the positive forces who are keeping our world together in one piece).
No, the Eddas were not referring to today’s situation vis a vis religion. That’s a bloody stupid contention.
