BEWARE OF MONOTHEISM

Taken from, The Intelligence Agents by Dr. Timothy Leary, Ph.D:

BEWARE OF MONOTHEISM
Monotheism is the primitive religion which centers human consciousness on Hive Authority. There is One God and His Name is (substitute Hive-Label). If there is only One God then there is no choice, no option, no selection of reality. There is only Submission or Heresy. The word Islam means "submission." The basic posture of Christianity is kneeling. Thy will be done. Monotheism therefore does no harm to hive-oriented terrestrials (Stages 10, 11 and 12) who eagerly seek to lay-off responsibility on some Big Boss. Monotheism does profound mischief to those who are evolving to post-hive stages of reality. Advanced mutants (Stages 13 to 18) do make the discovery that "All is One," as the realization dawns that "My Brain creates all the realities that I experience." The discovery of Self is frightening because the novitiate possessor of the Automobile Body and the Automobile Brain must accept all the power that the hive religions attributed to the jealous Jehovah. The First Commandment of all monotheisms is: I am the Lord, thy God: Thou shalt have no other Gods before me. All monotheisms are vengeful, aggressive, expansionist, intolerant.
Stage 10: Islam-Catholicism
Stage 11: Protestant Evangelism
Stage 12: Communist-Dulles Imperialism
It is the duty of a monotheist to destroy any competitive heresy. Concepts such as devil, hell, guilt, eternal damnation, sin, evil are fabrications by the hive to insure loyalty to Hive Central. All these doctrines are precisely designed to intimidate and crush Individualism. The process of mutating into Self-hood plunges the mutant into this cross fire of neurogenetic moral flak. Most of the freak-outs, bad trips and hellish experiences are caused by Monotheistic Morality. Again, it must be emphasized, that Monotheism is a necessary stage. Monotheism is a technology, a tool, to bring pre-civilized tribespeople and caste-segregated primitives into the collectives necessary to develop the post-hive, post-terrestrial technologies.
The major evolutionary step is taken when the individual says: "There is only one God who creates the universe. This God is my Brain. As the driver of this Brain I have created a universe in which there are innumerable other Gods of equal post-hive autonomy with whom I seek to interest. And my universe was, itself, created by a Higher Level of Divinity—DNA, whose mysteries and wonders I seek to understand and harmonize with."

Hive Authority. nice descriptor.

The major evolutionary step is taken when the individual says: "There is only one God who creates the universe. This God is my Brain.

...in my brain's name, amen.

thanks frankie, that was a good read...

I agree with Dr Leahry wholeheartedly...this has been my theory for some time, although the Dr puts it far more succinctly than I ever could:)

Great read, thanks Frankie:) frog

'Hive authority', that's good. I noticed that while he had the symbol for judaism up there, he did not mention it. Since it is the origin of both of the religions that he did criticise, it is strange that he didn't, unless one considers how they bristle at any citicism whatever. Judaism is also the origin or true monotheism. Leary is also jewish -http://shadow.mediafilter.org/MFF/S39/S39.Leary.html

Leary was also an Acid advocate and regularly took trips to expand his mind. Maybe this is what the GB needs to usher forth some new light. LoL

I just assumed the GB must be on some massivoso trip when they write all their ficticious literature, perhaps it's a power trip rather than an acid trip?...at least with the latter you're only stuffing up your own brains chemistry.

Does he talk about steps beyond this kind of stuff?

I definitely agree with monotheism being a technology.

The major evolutionary step is taken when the individual says: "There is only one God who creates the universe. This God is my Brain.

But i find this above statement a bit wishy washy. Does he explain why this is a major evolutionary step?? It just seems to me to be a bit of empty rhetoric.

i can't speak for leary, of course. but, IMO, it is a major evolutionary step because this is the step where one sheds their magical thinking cap, and takes on a natural view of phenomenon and the yet unexplained. people who can do this become like god's of their own existence, and can from there step forward into the future rationally, to do something of substance about the world we live in. in other words, helping ourselves is an evolutionary step in the right direction because we realize that if we don't do something about our world and how we live in it, NO ONE is going to make it all better for us with the wave of his magic wand. it would be nice, but it's just not gonna happen.

Dark Knight

I agree with you tetrapod.

I guess the way leary worded it didn't make sense to me. He just makes it sound like the next evolutionary step precludes the idea of the existence of a higher being or beings. I believe the that evolutionary step should be open to any possibility and the recognition that the universe is bigger than just what our mind percieves.
