NO IRRATIONAL FEAR, NO PHOBIA THIS, BUT A DREAD DREADFULLY REAL

NO IRRATIONAL FEAR, NO PHOBIA THIS, BUT A DREAD DREADFULLY REAL 

🕉 No irrational fear, no phobia this, but a dread dreadfully real of a religion that rules by the rod, that serves by the sword and holds billions in trepidation, a fact proven historically and finding instance every day across the globe, throttling the life of man and more of woman who is denied every right but to submit to misogyny of all sorts, a political system more and less a moral creed, leave spirituality or philosophy aside which find no place within its ambit, whose native impulse is to dominate mankind with its credal formulations, at once arbitrary and absolute, inviolable even though violating every principle of democratic individual and collective freedom.

This fear is affecting the lives of billions, this faith imprisoning the minds of its followers, restricting rationality, constricting the passage for progress, imposing archaic laws and outdated modes on emerging modernity, thereby thwarting growth and social evolution, impairing intuitive insight into the higher realities of life and existence, in short debilitating humankind in an irreparable way.

The fear is not fabricated but is the fruit of barbaric acts perpetrated daily across the wide world which has reduced its victims to helpless sufferers while the gullible West coins terms to prevent due criticism of the faith in scriptural terms. Why blame Chamberlain then for his soft appeasement and delayed wartime response when the Churchills even today are heeded not when they send out their radar signals to avert a coming catastrophe? 'A stich in time saves nine' we have heard often enough. Why then leave the tattered social fabric unstiched while the hour still remains to render it whole?

A movement is on and gaining momentum, of sufferers at the hands of text, cleric, family and community, who are doing seminal service to the cause of liberating the lost children of God being daily ground to dust by a tyrannical system in His very name. Our salutations to these bravehearts for their risky endeavours and our unstinted support for their mission of mitigating the misery of man crushed under the heels of archaic undivine absolutism. 🕉
