For a disgusting Anglo like myself, there is no salvation. We have been severed from out past and it has been lost to time. Queue nihilism.
The matter really changes under Monotheism where The God in the faith is the supreme god over all else, so it becomes much more universal than Zeus or Thor.
Monotheism is a relatively recent idea. You're 100% correct about gods being geographic first.
Familites and houses also had lesser patron gods.
tfw the Japanese literally have a god for every rock and mushroom ever.
The God of Israel is geographic, for example. At one point is become henotheism. And then with Christianity become truly monotheistic (debatable with the Trinity though) as the universal God for jew and gentil.e
Eastern religions are crazy.
I like the idea that Catholicism is basically Paganism in denial.
I like Eastern religion, they're fun.
tfw Lao Tzu was basically a proto-Anarchist.
When I first read the I-ching it broke my brain.
Aye.
The version I picked up too had a part added by the translator where he wrote his own story to reorganize his thoughts on Taosim and set them to a loose narrative.
I was taught Taoism but an actual Chinese Taoist, and every time I try to explain it using reason and logic, he said I was wrong and I didn't understand. Western indoctrination is strong.
You have to forget everything you know.
Listening to Allan Watts from time to time and he gives parables like that often, if for Zen sometime. Like the Zen master showing his students a stick and asking them what it is, if they say it's a stick he thwacks them over the head.
Haha
There's also another story I should look for and read again because I think I missed the point it was trying to make the first time. But it talked about a Chinese student of early Zen seeking out the master somewhere in Tibet I think and petitioning him to teach him about inner peace. Each time the master would refuse him until eventually the student offered him a gift of his own severed arm. Some words latter and the student was given inner peace.
If only that were literal and that easy. I think it is a metaphor.
I lived in Obama's America and that's pretty much socialist, right?
More like Sharia-Stalinist!
Damn Muslim commies

No and it sounds horrible.
