It seems as though Nietzsche, in his “Antichrist” is stating that Jesus himself tried to point people in the direction of their own connection to God.  No salvation needed, just understanding of what we are and where we come from.

The other

 When a group of people is separated out because they look a certain way or speak differently, and they are treated as if they had no rights I would hope to be connected with those who protect them. Instead I find myself living in the country that is committing the act of separation and cruelty towards an entire group based on slight differences. My country has made the value of life be based on how we look and where our family is from, instead of being based on the life we have lived and what we have done in the world. We have been a nation of immigrants since the day Europeans landed on these shores and began marking the lands lived on by the natives as their own. We have gone through times when we destroyed societies because they lived on this land before us, or we kept the other chained to do all the work because they looked different.

As we are in the nothing, potential itself has done something unexpected, it created a void; like taking a breath in we as nothing created an absence and in it potential ...

Equity

 When we recognize the status of each and every human as an extension of the whole that reality has brought forth for the joy of experiencing this world within our solar system, galaxy and universe we can understand that each individual has the right to receive an equal compensation based on time given to the working world regardless of status in a corporation or independent employment. When a certain set of humans is compensated, be it by a company or even a government, in a fashion that unequally allows them access to such luxuries as food and a comfortable independent home, then equity is lost and no matter how much face value a government or company puts into the ideals of accessibility, diversity, equity and inclusion it does not make up for the discrepancies in income and reward that different people receive for giving part of their life for the betterment of the human experience. Neither position nor degree of education is enough to qualify anyone to receive extra compensati...
