    Everyone is hindered and helped by their prejudgements. The ability to critically examine the claims of others, as well as the prejudgements of oneself is what makes a great thinker.

    Religion IS ideology. Politics clouds religious judgment.

    We can only become conscious through the efforts we make.

    My own sin and ignorance keeps me beneath the sedge as the blind leading the blind on a path of self destruction.

    Ideology is always subjective born of objectivism and formatory thinking.

    Minds in boxes, awake but not too Conscious or spiritual, busy munching on the Carcass/tree of knowledge.

    Objectivism > that one can attain objective knowledge from perception through the process of concept formation and inductive logic, that the proper moral purpose of one's life is the pursuit of one's own happiness or rational self-interest???

    Formatory thinking > a term for the mechanical aspect of the lower intellectual center.

    Pigeon holing, and thereafter returning mechanically to them as statements of truth.

    Black and white statements or strictly agreeing or disagreeing.

    Subjectivism > the doctrine that all knowledge is limited to experiences by the self, and that transcendent knowledge is impossible???

    Moral Relativism > connected with a normative position about how we ought to think about or act towards those with whom we morally disagree.

    Meta-Ethics > addresses questions such as "What is goodness?

    Justifications for moral judgements are not universal". So perhaps humanity may not be universal!................NOT!

    Dominions ~ Sovereignty; control: "man's attempt to establish dominion over nature". = I am God!...............NOT!

    God is within, has always been and always will be.
