The Nature of the Religious Spirit
The religious spirit is a force that I have encountered in various aspects of life. It is unyielding, intractable, and dogmatic, often causing division and stifling conversation. It is not confined to formal religious contexts but can be found in all areas of the world, from the American Medical Association to the FDA, and even in discussions about climate change and financial systems.
Personal Encounters with the Religious Spirit
I have had personal experiences with the religious spirit that have left a profound impact on me. One such encounter was with a client of mine, an older woman whose pastor had been mishandling her finances. Despite my efforts to help her and protect her financial interests, she cut ties with me due to her belief that we were not “equally yoked” in our religious beliefs.
Another encounter was with a friend who, after a simple display of affection between me and another friend at a lunch table, decided to end our friendship. She believed that our paths were diverging in terms of our spiritual beliefs, and she felt the need to distance herself. These experiences have shown me the divisive and judgmental nature of the religious spirit.
The Religious Spirit in Climate Change Discourse
In the discourse around climate change, I have observed the presence of a religious spirit. I was once a fervent believer in the mainstream narrative around climate change until I conducted my own research and discovered a variety of perspectives and data sets that challenged this narrative. However, these alternative perspectives are often silenced or ignored, a phenomenon I attribute to the dogmatic and divisive nature of the religious spirit.
The Religious Spirit in Financial Systems
The financial world is not immune to the influence of the religious spirit. Many people hold unwavering faith in the Federal Reserve, often without a full understanding of its nature and operations. The emergence of Bitcoin has also stirred up religious fervor, with people either staunchly supporting or opposing it. This dogmatic adherence to certain financial systems or currencies, in my view, is a manifestation of the religious spirit.
Conclusion
The religious spirit, as I have experienced and observed it, is a great divider. It stifles conversation, hinders progress, and creates unnecessary divisions among people. It is my hope that by sharing my experiences and observations, I can encourage more open and inclusive conversations in various aspects of life.
