| The Faceless – Autotheist Movement II: Emancipate Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
"Thou shalt" unfurling in the wind Rising above with an "I will" This helps to contextualize what I said on part I. Don't live your life as commanded, in fear. Choose what you want to do, and "rise above" and do it. Phantoms dreamt to life by the desperately lost This line is somewhat condescending in delivery, but I can speak from experience that there was a time during my bout of mental illness where I believed in God against my will. Delusions of Reference. I mean, if it works for someone, fine, but these tracks seem to be penned to those whose idea of religion is "consecrated imposition" |

| Self-worship is an unfairly simple way to describe this. It's loss of faith. The realization that one "is God" is a deeper dissent from religion than atheism. If one wishes to identify the driving force and morality police of humanity as "God", then pending empirical observation of what is as yet merely metaphysical conjecture, the only conclusion that follows is that we are each our own God, wherein we retain the level of freedom to act as our desires and impulses versus our own sense of restraint allow. I mean, who's to give the people who claim to talk to God any more credit to sanity than people with Schizophrenia? It's a part of being able to take perspective to effectively have an internal debate of ideas, and we all have a moral compass, and most of us have the ability to self-motivate. To claim oneself is God is to let go of the idea of fearing an outside all-judging motivator. It is a position that takes a great deal of responsibility. Because so what if you're God? So is everyone else. | |
