“Bigot and Racist ; The INSANITY of BIGOTRY and RACISM.”
Article 500+63 has great wisdom within its content, and we shall be discussing its content in great detail over the next few weeks, as we continue our research into behaviours that are preventing Peace from ever becoming a REALITY, in our wonderful World.
We explained in Article 500+63 that unless we become aware without exception, that we are ALL BIGOTS and RACIST, we shall not have Worldwide Peace.
To understand better let us look at the dictionary definitions of exactly what a Bigot and a Racist actually is.
“BIGOT”a person who is intolerant of any ideas other than his or her own, esp on religion, politics, or race
“RACIST”the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race , especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on such a belief
Each of the above definitions are taken from the dictionary and will help us to better appreciate exactly any behaviours we may have or that can be seen within the behaviours both in others and in our Religious or Traditional beliefs.
We must unearth the underlying BIGOTED and RACIST beliefs that lie beneath the surface of our Sub-conscious or we will continue to behave in an INSANE way.
Let is look at some BIGOTED behaviours and ask ourselves these Questions;
1) Do we look at others BELIEFS and way of LIFE to be better or worse than our own?
2) Do I consider that because I happen to be born richer or poorer than another person that I am either better or worse than that person?
3) Because I consider I’m more handsome or ugly than someone does that make me feel that I am better or worse than that person or persons?
4) If I live in a neighbourhood or an area that is either poorer or richer than another person, do I feel that they are either Superior or Inferior to myself?
5) Does the School or University I attended make me feel either Superior or Inferior to anyone?
The list could go on and on, but for now the above Questions should be enough for us to take a look at what we believe as individuals.
Can we see that the Questions relate to both those who feel Superior and those who feel Inferior?
That is why BIGOTRY does not just apply to those who act Superior.
RACIST behaviour is prevalent both in our Conscious and Sub-Conscious reactions.
Here are a few Questions that will help us to define and isolate these poisonous and Insane Beliefs;
1) Does the colour of someones skin make me feel either Superior or Inferior to that person or persons?
2) Do I look at the origins or the place of someones birth as an indication of my Superiority or Inferiority?
It is important that we ask ourselves ALL of the above Questions with an open heart and mind so that we can see exactly how we feel about our own Beliefs
We leave it for each of us to ANSWER these Questions for ourselves.
To help us better understand, here is the first Statement taken from Article 500+63, which will help us look at FACTS, and not FICTION as our BIGOTED and RACIST minds would have us believe.
It is as usual in BOLD TYPE below.
Let ALL the World know that we are not afraid to tell it is as it IS:

Category – Traditions
“Religious or Spiritual – where are you?”
This question relates to how we see ourselves.
Most importantly – does your religion or moral standards lead you to have PEACE?
Does it give all around you a feeling of PEACE?
Do you emanate PEACE?
Does your Religious or Moral standpoint come from your own understanding, or has it came from parents or tradition?
Because you were born into a particular Religious or moral viewpoint does that make it TRUE?
Does it stand up to being tested?
Do we only listen to one sided issues on Religious or Morality, that confirm or strengthen our viewpoint?
Do we believe that our Religion or Moral views make us superior or better than others who do nor share our beliefs?
Do you as a Moral person consider Religion to be non-sense and vice verso for those of you who have a religious slant?
All of these questions when answered honestly, will lead us to PEACE, let us discuss a few.
First and foremost as Human Beings we are born into this life!
We are born in a particular area on the planet.
We take upon ourselves a skin colour, language and a country steeped in a particular culture and tradition.
This is where we start our lives on this beautiful planet we call Earth.
We have little choice in our formative years in where we are, what we hear or what we are taught.
The responsibility lies with those who are our parents or guardians.
Our parents give us food and shelter and a name.
They give us guidance on what they consider to be the best way to live life.
We live our lives as our parents would.
Our communities further strengthen these belief systems.
Our schooling reflects them also.
As Human Beings we are programmed into “who we think we are”.
All of these factors are important to exist life here on this Earth.
There is no question that we need to be taught all of the above to be able to function within society.
It is exciting to be in a world of great diversity.
All the nations on Earth add to this great diversity.
There are wonderful teachings that come from all peoples that inhabit the same planet we all dwell on.
They in and of themselves are very very good.
So why does anyone believe that there culture or tradition is superior to anothers?not crystal clear, we should re-read the above.
If they are not crystal clear, then we are perhaps more blinded that we think we are?
If they are not crystal clear, then that is the way it will be until it becomes crystal clear! It is as it IS.
Continues tomorrow. comments to editorial@psychegnosis.com
