 Humans are inherently evil
(Original Sin)
Humans are born empty and must
be filled with specific teachings, disciplines, and
beliefs.
The only true way to God is to
participate in our "church" and let us
petition God for you. All other religions
and all other pathways to God are
false.
The authoritarian doctrine is
fear based -- fear of God -- fear of the devil
--
The leaders teach victim
consciousness. What I want is
impossible. What is is inevitable. It
can't be any other way. I and a helpless pawn is a
sea of misery.
Suffering, struggle,
and hard work are essential. The
accumulation of money is measure of success.
Competition
is essential.
Results are produced as a result
of God's grace or by actions taken in the external
world.
Fear of making a mistake is a
major tool of control. The belief is:
I must do as I am told because if I don't, or if I make
a mistake, I could be punishment by superiors --
excommunicated (thrown out of the group) --
punished by God while still here on Earth -- and after
death, I could be excluded from heaven and condemned to
hell forever.
Strict discipline is
essential. Why Because without strict
discipline, the inherently evil nature will destroy the
child and not only that, without strict discipline, the
world will fall apart.
Mistakes should be
punished to insure that those who make the
mistake won't do it again.
We are dominating others for
their own good. We know better than they do how
they should live their lives. Therefore,
repression and external discipline are essential.
It's perfectly acceptable to
force our way onto other, because without external rules
and discipline, people will destroy themselves and each
other and end up in hell forever with
Satan.
For us, any activity is good,
including wars, murder, and genocide because we are
working under orders from God.
The Nuclear family (father -
mother - children) is the core model for control and
discipline. God is in charge. He
gives orders to father. Father gives orders
to mother and children. Mother gives orders
to children. Strict adherence to this
model is essential.
One man one woman marriages are
the only marriages acceptable. Any other
forms of human unions are bad because they threaten the
core values of the system. If left unchallenged,
they could destroy us.
Not even one of the beliefs in
our doctrine can be open to question. To
acknowledge that anything in our doctrine might not be
God's perfect answer, is to open the entire doctrine to
question. That could destroy our entire
social structure.
Politics must be run on the same
basic structure as the nuclear family. A
strict hierarchy must be maintained, and of course, with
us as the authorities. Much of our religious
doctrine should be made into secular law.
One way our way. Repression is
good. Too much freedom is bad.
Not even one of the beliefs in
our doctrine can be open to question. To
acknowledge that anything in our doctrine might not be
God's perfect answer, is to open the entire doctrine to
question. That could destroy our entire
social structure.
Anything that threatens the
nuclear family or the strict social order is
bad.
Sex outside of the confines of
the nuclear family is bad. Why?
Because all other expressions of sex threatens the
nuclear family.
Children are taught what to
think. Anyone who deviates from this
doctrine is committing heresy and is subject to
severe punishment, including, excommunication,
condemnation to hell forever, and, if necessary, to
being murdered.
Humans in our group/church are
commissioned by God to use the Earth in any way we
choose, including destroying whatever we choose to
destroy.
In the hierarchy of life forms
on the planet, humans are superior. The
instructions are dominate nature.
Our religion (our group)
has exclusive access to God and exclusive access
to God's heaven.
We know because the Bible tells
us so.
Suffering and sacrifice are the
ways to please God.
Self discipline produces wealth
and morality.
Social programs are wrong
because they negate the need for self
discipline.
Because survival of the fittest
is the rule, we must be armed at all times
