Religion—Primitive A
member of The Stelle Group asked Richard if the religious beliefs of
so-called primitive peoples are perhaps closer to original Lemurian roots
than the religions popular in modern civilizations. Richard responded with an
emphatic “yes”. A good test of the relative advancement of a people is the
way children and pets are treated. In most civilizations today, the power to
control others is vested in people who never see those whom they control.
This can have a brutalizing effect, causing leaders to deal with people
coldly as depersonalized units. Often
the weaponry of primitive peoples makes it necessary for them to meet in hand-to-hand
combat if they are to fight. It is very difficult to kill a man whom you are
looking straight in the eye. Therefore, primitive peoples in many instances
have developed kinder ways of dealing with their fellow man. (01-1970) |
