In the United States, we live in a secular republic where prayer was removed from public schools to accommodate non-believers.

This decision aligns with the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which establishes the separation of church and state, stating that no law shall respect the establishment of religion or prohibit its free exercise. Interpretations of this amendment vary based on individual perspectives.

In the 1960s, the U.S. Supreme Court banned school-sponsored prayer in public schools in Engel v. Vitale, citing that it would violate the First Amendment.

Students are allowed to meet and pray on school grounds, provided they do so privately and do not pressure others to participate. However, teachers promoting religion and prayer during class can face disciplinary action.

In recent times, there has been a growing acceptance of educators promoting various sexual ideologies and identities in classrooms, even when parents express objections and concerns about exposing their children to such topics.

This raises questions about consistency in applying the same legal standards.

Government officials, politicians, and mainstream media outlets often criticize parents and children who believe schools should not promote sexual promiscuity, while prayer remains prohibited.

This perceived hypocrisy suggests that personal beliefs and opinions are being advanced in schools without the same scrutiny faced by religious practices.

Parents have the right to raise their children according to their values and provide them with the tools they need to succeed in society.

They also have the right to advocate against what they consider inappropriate for their young children.

Shouldn’t the same standards apply equally to both religious and sexual education in schools?

If we didn’t think about life after death, it could have a profound impact on our consciousness and the way we experience life.

Anxiety comes into consciousness when very young children are introduced to the folklore of Santa Clause. Santa is a legendary figure who brings gifts to well-behaved children and coal to naughty children during the Christmas season. It is the first time we start to feel anxiety about a fictitious situation and to self monitor our behavior for presents.

The next contrivance to bring anxiety to our consciousness as young children is religion and the afterlife.

The afterlife is introduced to us from our earliest days. It becomes the first idea implemented into our brain to condition us to feel anxiety and modify our behavior.

Even though these fables appear irrational and without facts, we have been conditioned from our earliest recollection to trust that it happened and is true.

We don’t know what happens after death for the reason that there isn’t any case of anyone coming back after death to explain it.

However, there are millions of people following faith without facts. Just superstition with a hint of imagination.

At one time, the mythology of the Greek Gods ruled the faith of the people. Great stories but as fact, they were and still are improbable.

Rather than worrying about the after life, just live and enjoy your life. When the electricity ceases in your body, you’ll discover what’s next or maybe not.

Two people, the same race, size, gender, religious ideology and neighborhood are put into a set of circumstances. Will the outcome be the same or different?

Choosing to walk down a dark, dank dirty alley late at night is a choice. The outcome whether positive or negative is based on that choice.

With todays groupthink attitude, people forgot how to take responsibility for their actions and rather find it easier to use that victim card to base their actions on. They blame it on their environmental culture along with other various scenarios other than themselves.

These types of people want society and culture to change for them, rather than better themselves to fit in with society. Does the spectrum for mental illness need to be that encompassing?

To be introspective first never occurs to them as it is never an easy road to look inward at oneself and battle with your ego. Just blame it on anything other than themselves. Blame it on past transgressions and then find that collective of people to fight that cause and be labeled courageous. However, growth to be better never ensues.

Choosing not to look inward could be due to laziness, fear of the unknown, being uncomfortable with what will be uncovered. Or could it be something else?

Wouldn’t it be easier to work on oneself first? Uncovering why they continue to behave in a certain way that is detrimental to themselves. The outcome of working on oneself could definitely create fulfillment and provide a positive outlook and longevity in one’s life. It requires discipline.

The answers are right at their fingertips if they choose to find out. All depends on what hypnotic social media sites one choose to waste their time on.

Every person is unique in their own right and should be respected. Unique in their characteristics, perspectives, and capabilities and these can lead to different responses and outcomes even in similar circumstances.

Personal motivations, efforts, values, abilities, support networks, and previous experiences can all shape an individual’s response to a given situation which can determine their future outcome.

Thoughts, beliefs, actions and perspectives play a powerful and significant role in determining one’s emotional well-being and will play an integral part in guiding their destiny.

Positive thoughts, emotions and actions will be constructive and beneficial in one’s life while negativity in thoughts, emotional reactions and actions will be detrimental and destructive, intensifying their unhappiness and is unhealthy over all.

It’s all regulated on you.

The middle class are the pillars of society. They prop up the millionaires and billionaires while providing shelter and opportunities for the poor.

The world is witnessing the mentality and philosophy of nationalism incorporated into smaller groups like LBGTQ, black life matters, feminism, progressives, the every changing political affiliations of donkeys and elephants and religious identities. Nothing else matters but the sovereignty and longevity of that groupthink and its hypocrisy of tolerance.

To step back and look at the larger essence becomes lost with, hypothetical propaganda messaging of victimization. It’s done to continue the incoming money flow to the perpetrators pushing the groupthink directive and mind washing the believers to volunteer for the good of the cause.

Collectivist mislead their minions with biased and distorted science and facts which becomes fodder for those pushing their disinformation. Some followers of the collectivism become confabulated.

The action of self censoring to conform for self preservation trumps ethical considerations after witnessing what happens to the dissenters of the collectivist philosophy.

In military strategy, dividing and conquering involves breaking the enemy’s forces into smaller groups and attacking them individually, rather than facing them as a unified front. By pitting groups against each other, those in power can manipulate the situation to maintain their authority and power.

By creating smaller groups and pitting them against each other, stagnation, inefficiency, or lack of progress within a society ensues. Lack of social cohesion and collaboration will continue to impede progress and exacerbate societal problems.

The banter of open dialogue, diversity of thought and constructive criticism becomes irrelevant and screaming the groupthink’s ideological rhetoric at each other creates missed opportunities to make things better for all involved.

When all is said and done, it’s all about continuing the flow of money and influence of power to these fraudulent organizations at the cost of people.
