The New World Order
While not everyone on ATS can agree on the particulars, and just what the ramifications, motives and final outcome, most if not all of us can agree,
that there is some struggle for empire of epic proportions, taking place right now.
Some feel it’s Biblical Prophecy, others an end of an Age, some believe it to be a conspiracy of men, and man alone dating back thousands or years
or more, in order to create a One World Government and a New World Order, some consider forces of Darkness and Evil, and Good and Light are colliding,
some even believe Alien Species from Other Worlds or even Other Dimensions are at play and involved, while some just see an unconnected series of
random events based on greed, power and desire.
While we might not agree on just what is transpiring, we all believe something is transpiring.
Many believe one war or another it is going to lead to a radical change in government and how we live our lives here on Earth.
Most people who feel this believe there will be a New One World Religion, to go along with a New One World Government, and a New One World Currency.
So that got me thinking, what kind of religion that would really be. Some theories abound on this, from being something dark and Luciferian, to being
a virtual Nirvana created by a second coming of a prophet or savior, and what close to 2/3rds of the Planet currently considers being the One and True
God.
While 2/3rds of the Planet does believe this basic principle, most if not all of them, tend to disagree on precisely how to live in order to appease
and gain that God’s Grace.
We all assume that the New Religion will be forced on us and created by someone or something we might not all agree with.
But what if we could come up with a New Religion, Ourselves, that we All could agree on?
What should that religion be like? What should it encompass?
If we had to have a religion what would we the People really like it to be?
The Dawning of the Age of Aquarius
Like it or not, throughout the Ages we have seen Religions, and Religious attitudes and perspectives, drastically and radically change at times of
monumental world upheavals in Empire.
We have seen Grecian, Babylonian, Egyptian, Persian and Roman Deities come and go as their Empires rose and fell.
While elsewhere in the world Sanskrit, Taoist, Buddhist, Shinto, and Hindu Empires, rise and fall during the ages, for an age, also with their own
philosophies on Life and the Universe, often replete with their own Parthenon of Deities.
Still Empires in the Americas of the Aztec, Inca, Toltec, Hopi have risen and fallen too during the ages, for an age, with their own unique
philosophies on Life and the Universe as well, with their own Deities and ways to worship.
Meanwhile more Nomadic and Tribal People like the Norsemen and North American Indians and Pacific and Caribbean Islanders whose way of life also
lasted an Age had their own unique take on these things too.
Change some say is inevitable, and what we have seen, whether we like it or not, is Religions and Philosophies Change with the Age.
As the Age of Aquarius arrives along with these monumental changes in Empire and Government we see, how do we really want to see ourselves moving
forward, what are the philosophies we really want to embrace and the values we really stand for?
What could we all agree on? Because we really feel that way, because we feel its truly right, and right for us, and not just because such and such
Deity, Prophet, Gospel, or Political Authority says its right?
How as a species do we really want to see ourselves? How do we want to perceive the Universe?
The New Heroes
Every Great Empire and War that changes the World as we know it has its heroes, from Achilles to Gilgamesh, Caesar and so forth, and often their
ideals end up becoming or being made a reflection of our own.
While one person’s hero is an another person’s villain it is not just Warriors but Prophets from Plato and Socrates, to Jesus and Mohamed, and so
on and so forth who become our heroes’ and those we would emulate.
There are bound to be new Heroes in a World radically altered in its Governance through War and other upheaval.
What will really constitute a Hero to us, what qualities do we truly all admire?
For surely as in times past, their own perspectives, and perceptions will be written into a New Religion forced upon us, what then will the Hero of
the Great Upheaval really look like, for us to really believe in our heart of hearts and soul of souls they are Hero?
Christians, Muslims and Jews
We know you exist, we know you believe, we even know you love to believe, we even know you need to believe, and you all believe in so many very
similar things when it comes to your notions of God and the Universe, but those things you can’t agree on, yet remain so pronounced in how you
perceive and interact with one another and get along.
What could you in essence all just agree upon as a bare minimum, to get along, so all of us could keep on keeping on?
If you had to leave your God out of the decision making process, and in your heart of hearts simply look for what all could easily agree is right,
what would that be?
Not how you think God might want it, but how you would want it?
Techno Mages and Mystics
While science and skeptics abound, and the science of skepticism abounds, many people do feel that Mystic Forces are at play and involved in
Spiritualities involved with the current Religions and possibly even the Old Religions.
Yet soon technology is going to reach a level, where it too might be able to accomplish some very magical, and incredibly powerful things, that might
in fact be able to critically effect how we see the world, and interact with it and one another, and with authority and government.
It won’t be in everyone’s hands, but just a chosen few, they could in theory end up having tremendous power over us with technological devices
that influence and could interact with our very minds.
Some feel, Sorcerers, Occultists, Mystics and some Priests might already enjoy great power channeled from some yet to be fully revealed and understood
source, which might already be affecting us.
Technology one way or another is bound to through science, perhaps in our lifetime if it has not already make these things possible.
Whose hands should such power be in, what Guiding Principles and Philosophies would we really want one of those chosen few to espouse?
When?
When are we, or are we ever going to become Masters of our own Destinies and determine these things for ourselves, amongst ourselves, instead of being
reliant, and then injured because these things are instead Dictated to us.
So…
If there must be a New One World Religion, what should it really be like? Who would be the Heroes of these New Gospels, how would we define our place
in the Universe and perceive it? What would our Philosophies towards Life be and what should constitute what is good or evil? Who should be in charge,
and should anyone, what would the rituals be, and where and how ought they to take place? How should it be supported in thought, and deed, and in
endowment and empowerment?
What should the New World Religion that all shared be like, if you could write it?
