When I read the gnosis stuff from the Nag Hammadi scriptures, that comes close to going to the source. The organized religions have captured and faked alot, certainly in the Bible.
Ok, I think that's amazing, speaking as a Christian who strongly believes in good and evil. Sure there are always people being manipulated by emotions, or who cloak their selfish intent in terms of the good, but those are just lies.
If you take the approach that there is no such thing as good or evil, then you are easily manipulated because you can't argue against taking any behavior or course of action. Like why even have borders?
To me, borders are to keep evil people out so they don't rape or kill our people, or destroy our property. If you believe in moral relativity though, then why does rape, death, or property destruction matter? If it's not evil, then why not have open borders?
The modern day "compassion" has nothing to do with morality. It's not even cloaked in moral terms anymore. It's all about emotions, and how you should feel bad if people are dying or living in miserable conditions. That's a fundamentally female way of looking at things. It's not manly, moral, or Godly.
