What You Need To Learn
There is no fixing this system. There is no repair kit or broken bit that can be replaced. Everything you see in this system is the system. Everything it does is what it is designed to do. You cannot fix the system because in fact it is not broken, it is performing precisely in the way it is designed to perform. Those who want to fix it are trying to break it under the illusion that it could not be working the way it is supposed to. But it is acting precisely the way it is designed to act and indeed, will never be changed to act in any other way.
The problem is, the system is broken and so breaking it or trying to, simply pushes it forward. That is the power of this system of things. You can war against it, you can have revolutions, you can try and vote it out of existence, but all you get is the same system with new faces.
People do not understand this system because they think it is natural, they think it is reality. But they think reality is this system and natural. Its circular reasoning. Reality is physical because what seems physical is what reality is.
But the harder you look the less physicality we see and the less real, reality becomes. No one can prove physical reality exists nor even that there is a substance that is physical. Indeed, the harder we look for proof the more we realize this entire system is predicated on there being an absence of proof. If something could be proven it would necessarily prove this reality is not real. This needs to be understood. People only take the physicality of reality as a fact, because it cannot be proven. They actually think this lack of proof is proof.
Materialists base their trust in the physical world on the findings of empirical science. But empirical science proves it is not able to prove anything conclusively. Even if there was a physical reality, empirical science could not prove this beyond the capacity to doubt.
In empirical science there is always the possibility an assumption will be proven invalid, and a proof will be overturned. So, the only thing empirical experiments can prove conclusively, is that there are no conclusive proofs.
This ought to pose a problem for those who ask for a proof of God existence, meaning they want proof that God exists in a realty they cannot prove exists. Its one thing to ask for proof that unicorns exist but demanding we prove unicorns exist in a magical forest run by fairies expects too much.
First prove beyond any ability to doubt, that physical reality exists, then you can demand Christians prove God exists in this reality.
If we are confronted by a waterwheel why complain it is broken because it will not work as a car engine? The waterwheel is not broken just because it is not able to run a car.
The apriotic system is designed by spiritual children to allow them to play at being adults, there is no better or more honest way of describing it. It was created because of spiritually immature persons decided they wanted to be free and create their own playhouse, and the system has been perfected since then to exclude adults.
Even if we do not like what it is doing, that does not mean it is not doing what it was designed to do, and indeed that it has not been modified over the years to suit the needs of those who control it.
To understand what is going on one has to understand there are two possibilities available to us as humans. We can be adults or children. There are a lot of other things we could be and are, but they can all be grouped into one of the two states of a persons. We can act and live like children or as adults.
What confuses the situation is that we restrict our vision to the physical, flesh world. This is the reality of children. We see physical adults and we see physical children and we assume these are different groups of persons. We know many adults do not really act like adults, but these are usually the ones who have real behavioral issues. It’s not hard to see a drug addict, a criminal or indignant person as someone with spiritual issues, but we do not look at the investor, or bank president or state employee as someone who is spiritually sick. But if the person is not in the middle class or working at a real job producing real goods and services, the probability is they are spiritually immature. That is a good percentage of the people, and it is no guarantee that just because one is in the middle class or working a real job that they are spiritually mature either.
We are all born in the flesh and we all need to mature physically. But that does not really do much for human beings. A person who is physically mature is technically just a large child. We might try and debate this but remove his education, if he has any and his willingness to work, and one has a very large dependent who will never be anything but a burden on the system.
A child that is eager to be of use is of far more value than an adult with a chip on his or her shoulder and a heart full of resentment. But where do we draw the line? Most of us already know there are people who we ought not trust and who need to be restrained, but we cannot identify them with the precision we need.
ICE is going around catching and deporting illegal immigrants. The law does its best to catch criminals and jail them. Then we have political parties created to oppose and hopefully take power from those who do not have the best interests of the country in mind. There is a lot going on, but have they really identified the real problem and does what they are doing really solve the problem, even in part?
We have said that the problem is spiritual children. We have identified these are people who want to remain children in the sense they wish to remain dependents. They do this primarily through the political system. But many are powerful persons with good jobs who earn a lot of money exploiting those who do the real work. Every politician is necessarily a parasite, regardless of his policies or priorities. They are all part of the problem. Being less of a problem than other politicians does not make them part of the solution.
We have remarked that the problem begins with people who claim what belongs to God. But they do not stop there. After they have claimed parts of the natural world, they use this power to take value from the ones who are producing the real wealth. The most that has been done is to try and reduce the amount of theft that is going on. No one seriously attempts to eliminate all the graft and corruption. We know it would destroy this system. But that is just the problem, we do need to collapse this system. It is a parasitic system that rewards parasitic behaviour. The person who is law abiding and gainfully employed, does not need the state, that is he or she does not create the situation or conditions that require a state. It is the criminals and socialists that need the state.
And so, lets look at the perfect system or the best-case scenario. If we moved with a group of persons to an island and created our own system, what is the highest possible ideal we could hope to implement?
The most perfect of all possible systems is one in which we are equal.
There is no possible system in which some are more equal than others that could or would be judged morally better than a system in which equality predominated. Indeed, the only way we can escape the predation and parasitism of the present system is by imposing a doctrine of equality on all members. Equality only exists between spiritually mature persons. Therefore, the line between this and the other system follows the line that divides the spiritually mature from the spiritually immature.
This line divides those who pay their way and who pay others what they earned from those who to some degree live off of others, that is who are parasites.
There are parasites and Apriorists and nothing else and nothing in between. We either work and pay our own way, or someone subsidizes us. There is no third option.
This is ok when we are actual children but once we are physically grown, we need to adopt a condition of equality with other adults and support ourselves and those who are dependent on us, as family.
It is our equality that produces maturity.
But how do we get there? How do we join the adults?
The simple answer is that we join a group of adults and we work with them in ways that create value. However, we cannot just join a physical group, there must be a spiritual transition akin to marriage. We are creating a new being. The two become one in a marriage. In a church the many become one, but it is still a spiritual event that requires something akin to a sacrament.
What we need is a mission. There is only one possible mission. We need to seek perfection. Our apologetics only makes sense if we can demonstrate that the reason for our faith is that it leads us to perfection. The achievement of perfection as a social objective presents people with the reason for the faith that we have. Apriorian is a mission that answers the doubts of the unbeliever. In so doing it feeds the sheep.
Our ministry which teaches believers how to be perfect as our Father in Heaven is perfect is a ministry which reaches out to the unbeliever to demonstrate to them that there is a way out of the mess they created.
There is no way out of the state of immaturity we are in, other than by means of obtaining maturity. The only solution to immaturity is maturity. If we do not wish to be children and dependents, we need to be adults. We need to seek perfection because adulthood is the perfection of the child.
