What this book knows
Biblical scripture is not divine revelation but recycled solar myth and priestly cosmology weaponized to keep humanity ignorant and obedient.
faith-and-doubt
We must cease to think of the man Jesus and think rather of the sun of God, for this is a solar myth, and its dying hero, a dying sun.
DMBT-RC-263The cause of all man's troubles can be reduced to just one word—ignorance. It is this that's running our world, not wisdom.
DMBT-RC-268obedience-and-authority
I say it is priestcraft using cosmology to frighten the ignorant into submission to it; its wild imagery, but intellectual terrorism used to gain power.
DMBT-RC-271It is priestcraft using this to found a religion. And so its foundation is dragged in—Jesus. What had he to do with Creation unless he too is a symbol?
DMBT-RC-278self-and-identity
We would rid the world of religious bigotry and prejudice, then passionately defend their source, religion. We are proud only because we haven't sense enough to be ashamed.
DMBT-RC-307Man was never in the animal kingdom. He is not a special creation. He is a special ideation.
DMBT-RC-298Illuminates
