American Heathen®

(Editorial Comment from the American Heathen® radio show – Air Date 10/09/09)

Denial of fact and evidence, self-induced blindness, a matter of severely altered reality, a delusion tightly bound to another delusion.  It is the blind leading the blind through the maze and mystery of life, colliding with what’s real, but denying its existence.  Alternate realities abound in America, running parallel to the one true reality of scientific discovery where never the two shall meld, for the danger to delusions is far too great.

Denial is made from the stuff of myth.  It is the culmination of thousands of years of fear and ignorance wrapped tightly in the bloody robes of totalitarian mischief, and cognitive waste.  The battle cry is heard: “Science be damned! It is not of the Lord!  It is man’s creation, and therefore it is dark, evil and false.”  The believer loathes discovery outside of doctrine.  The believer would sooner pluck out his eye, his ear, his nose, his tongue than acknowledge truth.  Then, he lashes out in anger for his self-mutilation.  Woe unto those who cross his ignorance, a man born of religious malice and bigotry. His bitterness demands retribution.  His vitriol demands capitulation.  His dogmatic hatred demands appeasement.  For truth is his enemy, and his thirst for vengeance must be quenched.

Science, the quest for knowledge, cannot be contained, threatened, nor pushed aside.  What it has brought to the benefit of all is far too powerful, too obvious, too honorable.  Yet, the bigot tries diligently to destroy it, working day and night, plying his mythological trade of deception, lies and falsehoods, all in earnest.  The bigot is not swayed by fact.  He is not swayed by evidence.  He is not convinced.  He cannot be reasoned with, brought to the beauty of scientific reality, nor to the clarity of mind necessary for human enlightenment.  His mind is closed, shut tightly and impermeable to progress.  He is only interested in what science gives him for his own hateful devices, his own selfish benefit.

Well, then bigot be damned!  Let the bigot close his mind!  It is his right!  But then deny him the benefit of truth!  Deny him ALL that science has discovered!  Forbid him a home built on the sweat of science.  Forbid him transportation, food, water and health.  He has no right to the discoveries and products of science!  Deny the bigot the advancement of man and cast him aside!  Force him from civilization and cause him to touch, smell, hear, and feel what the myth he has created for himself really has in store for him!

If he wants dominion, give him dominion of a barren plot of land, far from reality and the real world he so lovingly hates!  Let him rot in ignorance and pout in his bigotry while he worships his lie.  Let him sing his praises to his heavenly myth, far from those who work tirelessly for knowledge and truth.  Let him deny his children, and their children s children, a future of prosperity.  It is his right.  Indeed, it is his right to deny himself anything he so desires. But, not at the expense of others.  Not at the expense of freedom and liberty for all!

To those of you who believe as a bigot, those of you so blinded by your delusion… be gone!  Your self-induced pain and suffering is no longer our concern.  You boldly, defiantly, trample over the innocent with your two thousand-year old dogma, never the care for truth.  Never the care for fact.  Never the care for honor.  Never the care for integrity.  Never the care for compassion nor empathy.  You are weak and unsightly before the human spirit of discovery.  You are poor in character and lowly in esteem.  But, that is your right.  Yes, it is indeed your right.  But,your rights end where others begin, and your bigotry, hate, and damnation have no place here.  No more!  America cannot be the land of the free under your stipulations, under your dogma.  America cannot hold Liberty as a staple of honor in the shadow of your myth.  Yes, you are free to worship your delusion.  But, your delusion ends where others reality begins.  And if you cannot keep your delusions to yourself, then you are no longer entitled to liberty!  I say to you, be gone!  Lest you choose to live in reality hand in hand, respecting the rights of others, and the facts and evidence that advance freedom and liberty for all.
