Blind Faith Quotes

“The Uncultured Linguist (Sonnet) The way apes understand what's cultured, I'm not that sort of cultured - I'm humanly cultured - which means, I live as cure for tribalism, not coddle; I abolish chains, not worship them, I do not entertain stereotypes - I question and denounce prejudice, both external and internal. MAGA, Zionism, Hindutva, Prima gli Italiani, Khalistan, Islamism, Türkiye Yüzyılı, these are proof, we come from the monkeys; while humans take a snooze, monkeys roam free. Dogma is barrier to understanding, blind faith is obstacle to holiness. Assumption is obstacle to communication, stereotypes are obstacle to awareness.”

“{Letter to his brother, 1861} ... I remain an utter disbeliever in almost all that you consider the most sacred truths... But whether there be a God and whatever be His nature; whether we have an immortal soul or not, or whatever may be our state after death, I can have no fear of having to suffer for the study of nature and the search for truth, or believe that those will be better off in a future state who have lived in the belief of doctrines inculcated from childhood, and which are to them rather a matter of blind faith than intelligent conviction.”

“God is a Gypsy* (Sonnet) Kindness is my constitution, selflessness is divine sanity. To be human takes no scripture, living gospel takes humanity. Men of ritual, men of blind worship, will never know the breath of life, which in a way, is animal blessing, to know life is to be restless with light. To know light is to be restless, to know life is to be breathless, only those without life can sit still, for blindness is boon to the savages. The name is *Gitano - Abigitano; accused of freedom by alien hunters. War is legal, human trafficking is legal, genocide is legal, child-bombing is legal, and you call this civilized and religious!”

“No literature is infallible, but while errors in scientific literature are proudly mended by later scientists, errors in religious literature are rarely mended - they are interpreted, reinterpreted, and justified in a million ways, but never questioned, as very few persons of faith have got the brain and backbone to acknowledge errors, let alone correct them - this is not holiness, it's blindness most primitive.”

Reverence without revision isn't sanctity, it's stagnation - and stagnation might feel honorous, but it leads to devolution. Just because it's habit doesn't make it holy - admission of error is the beginning of enlightenment.”

“Rewiring Divinity, 2732 (Diary of A Monk Scientist) One thing you must realize, there is no absolute truth in this world, whatever you put your life and mind into, goes. I found the world's perception of religion prehistoric, so I poured my existence into rewiring the very reality of divinity - because, there is no other divinity out there, whatever we humans come up with, goes - and if some prehistoric baboons with two brain cells could normalize blind faith as divinity, then a human being with a hundred billion nerve cells, could cast aside such blindness and redo divinity from ground up, and this time, not as a coping mechanism against the unknown, but as enhancement of our humanity.”

“Then, one sunny September morning, the illusion of a personal God that I tried so hard to believe in, exploded over the skies of Manhattan. Even as the ashes and ruin of this horrific act of blind faith settled over New York, Washington and Pennsylvania, I watched people across the country scrambling to that same irrational altar for their answers. In the fierce storm of emotion that rolled across this country, one realization rose to the surface of my mind with blinding clarity: certainly this mechanism of unassailable blind faith is one of the greatest risks mankind faces today.”

“Dogma not Divine, Myth not Holy (Sonnet 2430) What kind of a moron demands his devotee to slaughter his son just to prove his loyalty! What kind of an alcoholic father sends his son to be tortured and nailed on a cross just to prove how much he cares! What kind of a pervert rescues his wife from her abductor only to abandon her, just so his reputation as the ideal king wouldn't be tarnished by a violated woman! Mythologies have nothing to do with holiness, nor with the actual creator of the cosmos, even if there is such a thing, at most they reflect the mindset and morality of their time. I never had any interest in making a case for or against god, my struggle is far more real, against dogma disguised as divine.”

“If you want to find out if someone is truly holy, don't ask them whether they believe in god, ask them instead, what they think of other religions, and if their response is that of appreciation, then you know that their heart is truly sacred, but if they rush to blabber about their own religion, then they're no more holy than I am white.”
