Chapter 21
The question of evil created by religions
What knowledge about the evil produced by the world's religions should be taken into account when analyzing the state of the world? Below I present in points the knowledge resulting from the essenceism system concerning the state of the world.
1. Knowledge of how religions work
At first glance, we only know the present "shell" of religion's existence. However, we do not analyze the activity of religious denominations on a larger time scale. As a result, we are not aware of the fact that religions, like the actions of bad political systems, are an equally significant source of evil, and especially a mechanism for maintaining it. They also create conflicts, wars and suffering. This is evident throughout human history.
2. Knowing that religions divide
The aim of science is to combine knowledge to lead to a full understanding of reality. Meanwhile, hundreds of religious denominations and thousands of their clergy act only in the interest of their religion, emphasizing their otherness. They quite often attack each other and try to exclude their opponents from the social space. This situation divides people and destroys social welfare. As a result, evil persists in the world.
3. Knowledge of blocking salvation
The study of essenceism has led to the conclusion that every religion is mastered almost from its very beginning by the "ruler of this world." Its purpose is to prevent the world from being saved, so religions are a threat to it. Unfortunately, when they submit to its influence, they exclude themselves from being actively involved in freeing the world from evil. They begin to proclaim that God knows evil and that only He can decide about the salvation of the world. This results in passive waiting for what God will do. It is a solution that negates the mission of salvation, which is the responsibility of religion.
4. Knowledge of the harmful effects of hierarchs
Observation of the functioning of religious denominations leads to the conclusion that the main force inhibiting various initiatives to improve the world are the wrong actions of some of their hierarchs. They duplicate the actions of political leaders who create states that destroy the dignity of the human person as a child of God. Such clergymen teach people to hate other faiths, races and cultures. Most often they block all attempts to repair the world, i.e. free themselves from Satan's rule. An example is Jesus Christ, who, as soon as he began his mission to save the world, was very quickly removed from society. This was done by the hierarchs of the religion that ruled in Israel in his day. Also now, the hierarchs of the great world religions uphold the power of the "master of this world".
5. Knowledge of the bad alliance of "altar" and "throne"
The entire history of mankind related to the creation of our civilization shows the fact of creating evil as a result of the application of the power of power. It destroys the power of love that should be the domain of religion. However, when religion cooperates with political power, then all hope of saving the world in the only possible way, that is, with the power of love, is extinguished.
