Earth is simultaneously a continuous horror and an absolute joy to behold, the vast planes of teal oceans, green forests and sandy dunes bring nothing but wonder to the imagination, but to live within that complex collage summons the horrors of existence.
Placing us last in the hierarchy only serves their ego and bolsters their weaponized self-importance through acts of guilting and shamming people who do not subscribe to their paradigm.
Religion never left, only the flavour of the day changed, society now worships egalitarianism and anyone proclaiming an alternative is met with crowds of frothing at the mouth devotees, screaming in expletives and painting you a heretic.
Egalitarianists may have good intentions but the core philosophy is hinged upon obvious contradictions, nothing in life is equal, so creating a system to abide by using these tenets will fail as many times as attempted.
Holding God, or a set of Gods above man has been the default order since our conception, the unknown was worshiped and observed, and it was left to the people to interpret meaning from strange oddities.
The problem with observing is that people are always improving this skill and as time pushes onward so does technology, and with the dawn of technology, man now has the ability to unravel the oddities and usurp their once long lasting position.
I do not believe, but I want to.
