We are consumed with moral decisions. In the West, it is increasingly difficult for people to see the mirage they created in ignoring those moral decisions and therefore consequences. Consumed by self-help, self-care, and the acquisition of the Self as the main proprietor of all that is healthy, good, and common; this hyper-individuality suspended the grounds of morality and ethics and pend the individual as judge and jury. This moral decision has had great immoral consequence.
Subsequently, a new set of rules, laws, principles, mores, and norms have developed in late modernity (late 20th and early 21st century) from said actions. What was once good is now evil. Light has become darkness, and truth mere opinions. This instability will only end in destruction. Therefore, mankind is required to reassess and relearn morality and her ways.
I have long said personally and will now make public that if God were truly “dead” i.e. that mankind surrenders the idea or reality of God as a living means and substance to which they devote themselves entirely towards; then such a creature would require a new form of god and religion. Granted, I am a Christian by faith and practice. Yet, I cannot philosophically ignore probability and the the probability of mankind continually seeking its own source of moral self-worth and good has a long and indefinite history. From such moral relapse, Justice I proposed then and consequently we see developing now, is the “secular” (an abhorrent lie for all things are religious in nature) push on mankind.
Justice of some kind is the drive of mankind outside the purview of God and His eternal justice. There are many reasons for that fact which I will cover. And I will even develop what such a system would require to sustain itself.
In this series I will begin reviewing the moral landscape and uncover our deeply rooted fortunes found in faith, law, and tradition often of which you cannot have one without another. Who and what we are as a people, God or no God, come from dust to which we will be dust once more. And in that same fashion, morality—moral or immoral in decision and consequence—derives from heaven and earth soaked in blood, sweat, and tears.
