The missing part

There is a part of your mind that is not stupid, selfish, self-righteous, 

touchy, vengeful, hypocritical...

Have you forgot about this part? 

Has this part of you been silenced and suppressed?

The truth

My fantasies are better than your.
That's why we don't get along.
My God is better than your God.
Your God is a delusion.

Honesty

Some people call themselves Christians, they can even go to church on sundays, but they refuse to turn the other cheek and they lay up treasures for themselves in tax havens.

Dishonest people can denounce dishonesty and hypocrites can critizise hypocrisy.

Some invent that they have met aliens from outer space, others pretend that they are optimistic about the future of mankind.

Also I lie daily. However, sometimes I don't. I believe that all people are tricksters that occasionally tell the truth.

How do you find out if someone is sincere? What method do you use? And how do you find out if you're lying to yourself?

I feel lonely

I've lost friends who became alcoholics or drug addicts
and I've lost friends who became religious.
Some got lost in New Age nonsense, others in the rat race.

Self confidence

Self confidence is dangerous.
People with low self confidence and low self esteem don't start wars.  

Don't trust yourself

The spell is broken when you begin to question your own beliefs.
Questioning others' beliefs do not lead to anywhere.
(If this questioning does not make you question your own beliefs).

Christianity and slavery

During the 1700s, slavery and the slave trade began to be questioned.

A new kind of Christian ethics and morals emerged.

Nothing i written in stone.

 When the British parliament voted to abolish slavery in the colonies in 1833, the Bench of Bishops voted against — as they did on almost all reform bills. To get the bill through, Parliament voted to compensate slave owners (There was no compensation for the slaves themselves). The Abolition of Slavery Act of 1833 provided for £20 million to be paid to West Indian plantation slave owners in compensation for the loss of their 'property'. The Anglican Church received £8,823 for the loss of slave labour on its Codrington plantation in the West Indies.

Individual Anglican Churchmen had to be compensated separately. Henry Phillpotts, Bishop of Exeter, and three business associates received nearly £13,000.
