RELIGION FOR WOMEN ONLY
To Rasa and
I can’t remember everything I have said in the past. I think my main concern about a matriarchal religion is to not make it the same as patriarchal religions. Unfortunately, we have all been brought up by patriarchal religions and so this is all we know, so we could end up with just another patriarchal religion with just a female deity and female priests. Whereas I think a true matriarchal religion would be very different to any patriarchal religion.
But I suppose women perhaps have to
start with patriarchal religious ideas because that is all we know. But then
allow the religion to evolve and change to become like how women think and
feel. William

William, I am now DAYUM PISSED. The way
you describe my version of women's new religion it is obvious you never read a
single chapter of it - which I shared - or if you did you did not pay attention
& forgot what it said.
It
is NOTHING like what you are describing. Honestly, this MAKES ME
ANGRY. All the WORK & Mother God insight I put into it has ALL BEEN
LOST ON YOU.
I remember well that just at the beginning I explained the New Religion was for WOMEN ONLY - safe space for women - all female leadership, females deciding every part of it, males having nothing to do with it. And secondly, males would not be allowed in the Temple {just as women are not allowed entrance into Muslim Temples} because women need SAFE SPACE to go somewhere where they are not INTERFERED WITH or HARASSED or in any way intimidated or concerned about the attitude, opinions, reflections or feelings of men. THIS IS WHAT YOU OBJECTED TO - our solitude away from men. You felt the GOOD GUYS should be a part of it it seemed.
{Ajax
has conveniently forgot or overlooked this because he is a consummate DIPLOMAT
& want to nullify any STRIFE between us, but the truth is the truth, you
objected, & therefore if you changed your mind, you owe me some sort of
apology like ‘OK I didn’t like the idea but I was wrong.’}
But
my objection to that was - look at the NAACP. Suppose they permitted
white people to enter - because not all white people hate blacks, some love
them in fact. Why not let the good white people in? Because they
would forever be looking over their shoulder qualifying, 'Oh yes, we know, many
whites are our friends, many whites are good people, etc.'
Like
women FOREVER, when laying out their complaints about the oppressor, have to
qualify NOT ALL MEN ARE BAD GUYS & it gets TEDIOUS, TIRESOME & time
consuming for nothing. Not all people are bad is a GIVEN we all accept
& each particular group that has been oppressed has every right to separate
from the group, gender or nationality or race or anything, which has oppressed
them, the good guys or gals along with the evil. Mother God made no
qualification when initiating male extinction that She would allow the good
guys to remain - She is removing ALL OF THEM.
I did explain that the men can follow our religion without entering into leadership or the physical premises - just as the Muslim women are Muslims but they practice their religion at home. {Many of them are saintly, I am sure living the life they live forced to procreate with serial pregnancies, no condoms allowed, brutalized by men, enslaved, no human rights - murdered if they disobey for the HONOR of men!} I did not preach any such attitudes or behavior in our religion. The men who are willing to live as HELPMATES of women, the way God & women originally intended will be welcome members of our society & POV.
And of course, our children will be taught the proper
ideology that women are superior to men, they are the leaders & men are the
AUXILLIARY partners. This will not take away their human rights. We
will not enslave, beat, torture or do 'honor killings' on men. If they
turn on us we simply turn them out of our society & they can go elsewhere
& do their thing. This is how it was in the ancient days of
Matriarchy, according to the great Marija Gimbutas. The women owned all
the resources & held all positions of leadership temporal & spiritual,
& so, if one man doesn't like the program he is not crucial to the survival
of the society, the door is open for him to leave. And we won't
assassinate him the way men do us.
These sentences of yours really irk me:
William’s words: “so we could end up with just another
patriarchal religion with just a female deity and female priests. Whereas I
think a true matriarchal religion would be very different to any patriarchal
religion.
But I
suppose women perhaps have to start with patriarchal religious ideas because
that is all we know. But then allow the religion to evolve and change to become
like how women think and feel.”
I addressed these issues well. It will NOT be a Patriarchal religion with a female deity & female priests. We contain WITHIN OUR SOULS the God Almighty. I said it is time to call upon that God every day, to see what She says & to WRITE NEW SCRIPTURES. We do not have to repeat male scriptures, the Holy Scriptures are written on our minds, hearts & souls. The scriptures we followed are supposedly written by or ‘inspired’ by Almighty God – written by men. So will our thoughts & ideas be inspired by God & written by women.
Time has passed since the male
scriptures were written. In those days
there was no proof of the superiority of women, & males claimed superiority
because it benefited them. ‘We are
superior – therefore you follow us. We
preach, you listen. We outline the
commandments, you obey. We are the
leaders, you the followers – Thus sayeth the Lord.’
They had no proof of anything they
said, but they said it. Today we have
proof in genetics & in studies, thousands of proofs, on female superiority
to men. These will all be summoned as
part of our scriptural basis, where God has made woman the head of the
household & the world. She has the
brain capacity to nurture, guide & lead.
When men lead they take us into Hell, the Hell we’re in now. The male leadership is Satan personified,
& we will teach this.
Enough said for now. Here is the review Pete gave the volume of the new religion, listed on Lulu.com:
Excellent
book, and a real game-changer for Women and all of humanity in fact. The ideas
in this book, at least if read correctly, will truly shake your foundations to
the core (in a good way). Even if for whatever reason you don't always agree
100% with everything in it, there is no denying the overall gist or "big
picture" of it in any way if one is intellectually honest about it. Probably
the most iconoclastic book ever written since anthropologist Ashley Montagu's
"The Natural Superiority of Women" in 1953. I would definitely
recommend it, and would give it six stars if I could.

This one came out very good as usual, Rasa. The artwork and fuzzies go great with it as well. I will be sure to share it. You do make some great points overall, and I await William's response.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I really have very much to add to this, though I will note that it looks like white people actually can join the NAACP to one degree or another, and in fact its founders were white. That said, it would go without saying that white members would be expected to de-center themselves and defer to black members. They would be highly unlikely to have white people in leadership positions nowadays. And the more fragile types that get easily triggered and constantly exclaim "not ALL white people!" would most likely be shown the door.

There are of course probably other organizations that are true "safe spaces" for black people only, or for people of color in general. And that is entirely understandable.
Best wishes and keep up the great work,
Ajax
White people founded NAACP? That would be something to look into......!!!
