RELIGION IN A TIME WARP/Dr Amos Wilson'
Yes ,how did we get this religion we talked about earlier' I talked about star trek,and we talked about the what,the time warp' that star trek depicts quite frequently,and how people move from one state of consciousness,and one world and are suddenly flipped into a new world!..
They go through the warp' and all of a suddenly,everything that they use to use to guide themselves no longer counts'the language that they use to speak can no longer be understood in the new world.'
The values that you used to guide their behavior are no longer workable.'infact it gets them into trouble.' The Gods,the culture ,the nature of the social relations, and all the thing that use to use prior meeting the warp,no longer suffice.'
Now they must learn new values and new behaviors,and new orientation in order to adapt themselves to the new universe that they live in.We're in that kind of position today'Think about the African in the world the African lived in prior to being bought across the oceans.'
Think about the Gods we praised,think about the organization of our society,think about the languages that we spoke,the food that we ate,the dress that we wore,the music,the song,the dance and all things that defined us as African people and think how horrendous, it must of been for us to be thrown into this world!... where there was a whole new languages,a whole new social hierarchy,a whole new set of authorities.
People pushing you around who you don't understand,people who are putting strange tools into your hands.
People who're trying to get you to relate to them and to relate to each other in a very different kind of way from what you're use to relating to,'
Think about the stress and the confusion and think about the abuse!... think about the horror of that situation our parents and great grandparents were put in.And there was somebody that said then,If you pray to this God'if you talk this way,if you dress this way,if you relate this way,YOU WILL GET A GREATER SENSE OF SECURITY!....
Your anxiety will be reduced'you will feel good' and you'll be able to with stand the pain' of your existence!...
And the God' then that I'm going to hand you'IS ONE THAT I HAVE CREATED FOR U!...and a theology that comes with it'IT'S ONE THAT I HAVE CREATED SO THAT YOU WILL CONTINUE TO SERVE ME!...AS YOU CONTINUE TO SERVE IT!...
And we come to believe in the veracity of that God,and that religion'why?... BECAUSE WE FEEL SO SECURE' WHEN WE FOLLOW IT!...AND WE FEEL SO RELIEVED' WHEN WE FOLLOW IT.'
And yet we wonder why despite all of our prayers' despite all of our 'devotion' WE STILL SUFFER THE WAY WE DO!...
I often ask the question?WHY IS IT THAT THE PEOPLE WHO PRAY THE MOST HAVE THE MOST OF THEIR CHILDREN IN THE JAILS' OF AMERICA TODAY!...
WHO SHOUT AND KICK OVER THE BENCHES AND SO FORTH'ARE FILLING UP THE PRISON!...AND HAVE THE CHILDREN KILLING EACH OTHER,AND ADDICTED OUT HERE IN THESE STREETS!...
There must be a problem here ladies and gentlemen.' We must reorient ourselves to our religions.We must reorient ourselves to our 'Gods' because apparently we don't have the appropriate orientation,because as that book you read says;
YOU CAN TELL A TREE BY WHAT? THE FRUIT IT BEARS'
And therefore if it bears bitter fruit' or if it bear no fruit at all!...The God you worship says IT IS BUT FIT TO BE HUME DOWN AND THROWN INTO THE FLAME AND CONSUMED!..read your own bible.'
It gives you a very practical measure as to whether the religion you're pursuing is an appropriate one' and that measure says:
LOOK AT THE FRUIT THAT IT BEARS!...
