Beware of Monotheism

Monotheism is the primitive religion which centers human consciousness on Hive Authority. There is One God and His Name is _____ (substitute Hive-Label).

If there is only One God then there is no choice, no option, no selection of reality. There is only Submission or Heresy. The word Islam means "submission." The basic posture of Christianity is kneeling. Thy will be done.

Monotheism therefore does no harm to hive-oriented terrestrials (Stages 10, 11 and 12) who eagerly seek to lay-off responsibility on some Big Boss.

Monotheism does profound mischief to those who are evolving to post-hive stages of reality. Advanced mutants (Stages 13 to 18) do make the discovery that "All is One," as the realization dawns that "My Brain creates all the realities that I experience."

The discovery of Self is frightening because the novitiate possessor of the Automobile Body and the Automobile Brain must accept all the power that the hive religions attributed to the jealous Jehovah.

The First Commandment of all monotheisms is: I am the Lord, thy God: Thou shalt have no other Gods before me. All monotheisms are vengeful, aggressive, expansionist, intolerant.

Stage 10: Islam-Catholicism

Stage 11: Protestant Evangelism

Stage 12: Communist-Dulles Imperialism.

It is the duty of a monotheist to destroy any competitive heresy. Concepts such as devil, hell, guilt, eternal damnation, sin, evil are fabricators by the hive to insure loyalty to Hive Central. All these doctrines are precisely designed to intimidate and crush Individualism.

The process of mutating into Self-hood plunges the mutant into this crossfire of neurogenetic moral flak. Most of the freak-outs, bad trips and hellish experiences are caused by Monotheistic Morality. Again, it must be emphasized, that Monotheism is a necessary stage. Monotheism is a technology, a tool, to bring pre-civilized tribespeople and caste-segregated primitives into the collectives necessary to develop the post-hive, post-terrestrial technologies.

The major evolutionary step is taken when the individual says: ''There is only one God who creates the universe. This God is my Brain. As the driver of this Brain I have created a universe in which there are innumerable other Gods of equal post-hive autonomy -- with whom I seek to interest. And my universe was, itself, created by a Higher Level of Divinity -- DNA, whose mysteries and wonders I seek to understand and harmonize with."

TUCSON LECTURE
THE TRIUMPH OF THE HIPPIES

An interesting thing happened when the first post-war baby boom generation of mutants hit college in the 1960's. I suspect that on every womb planet like ours, one generation after Hiroshima, you get a wild, volatile hippy-dippy all-out neural-change movement. Each gene- pool senses that a quantum jump into the future is about to happen, a retooling for a model change and each gene-hive squirts out its new experimental models. On this nursery planet these new models were called Hippies.

So, let's consider the 60's. I think it's important, as we rocket into the 80's, to understand what happened back then because there is a tendency to sweep that decade under the rug. Few people understand what happened between 1960 and 1970. I am here to remind you that the global neurogenetic revolution of the 1960's was the most important decade in human history. (Applause) Well, I see we have many veterans of the uncivil war of the 60's here. (Laughter)

I want to look at you, my fellow veterans in the first 20 rows, and say that you gentle shock-troops won a noble victory for DNA. (Applause) Let me remind you how you changed every aspect of American and global culture in the 60's. How your mutational signal reached and shook-up every gene-pool and hive-bureaucracy on the planet. You may suspect I am biased because I was a genetic activist in the 60's. But let me confess to you I have not one nostalgic bone in my body. I am certainly not here tonight, my fellow veterans, to lead a Charge of the Haight Brigade back to Woodstock. We shall salvage, not sentimentalize the past. As we move into the future we shall take the best of the 60's with us. You must not let Them at hive-control turn you into vegetating veterans like the American Legion and the VFW. Or seduce you into annual conventions at places like Philadelphia where you wear funny costumes and run around barefoot and get busted for old times sake. (Laughter)

I make gentle fun of the 60's, but I am serious when I say that this was an important decade. There is not one gene-pool in the American hive that hasn't been re-formed because of the 60's.

Take, for example, the parent-child relationship. I think today chat family politics are, by a factor of 10, more intelligent, more respectful and more mature than they were in the 1950's. Merciful memory may have allowed you to forget that 5 to 6 years ago, your government, the Nixon administration, was sending pamphlets to parents instructing them how to surveil and bust their own children. You remember, it said: "If she comes home from school smiling, watch her." (Laughter) And, in the last Presidential election, we had the predictable phenomena of Betty Ford saying, "Aw, sure, the kids smoke grass in the White House, that's alright; what's important is we are honest about it." And Rosalynn Carter said, "Sure Chip got busted, thrown out of the Navy, for smoking grass, but that's not important. What's important is we can talk about it, be honest about our differences."

We don't have the hypocrisy that used to prevail when one generation was getting aggressively smashed with Martinis in the front room while the younger generation was serenely floating out the back window. (Laughter, Applause)
