The root of freedom is evil, as we can never be truly free.
But is that really a bad thing?
Let me explain-
Whether you say you believe in a god or not, The Truth of the Matter Is, we will always have needs and desires. Those needs and desires drive us and shapes us into who we need to be (at any point in life) to obtain those needs and desires.
We go through several character changes in life due to this pursuit of "happiness." Whether you believe in having a soul or not, anyone can attest to feeling like there is two parts in ourselves that separate into body and mind. A third part of ourselves holds them together, whether you want to call it a soul, spirit, energy, ext.
That third part is what we hold on to, and our ego makes it extremely hard to let go. The majority of humanity has never even thought of letting go. We are all so busy holding on. Some have settled on how they hold on, others strive to improve how they hold on, and rarely, and I mean rarely, a minut number will find out how to safely stop holding on.
We strive to satisfy our soul, spirit, energy, ext, and we would do anything for it. This part of ourselves is who we ultimately worship/serve. We each have individualy created our own god and savior. Especially if one is an athiest, all one does is remove the vicarious atonement that every religion is based from. So technically an athiest is non existent since we, in root, worship/serve and believe in only ourselves. Vicariously or direct.
We are slaves/servants to our needs and desires, so ultimately we are slaves of man, who are slaves to men. We work to obtain our needs and desires, but the world reapes the fruits of our labor. We couldn't care less, as long as the world provides those needs and desires. Be it in little or big portions. See the fruits of that labor is what the world drives on. The world seeks to be immortal by reaping the fruits of our labor, that's how the world benefits, that's how it grows.
If our needs and desires define our servitude then can we ever be truly free? Because natural law will always dominate over the law of man, could we be free, even if we escape the laws of man? It's almost impossible to do so as the laws of man are at every corner of the earth. So we must submit to man as we submit to ourselves as we believe there is no other way, but what if there was. What if our natural direction of servitude is misdirected at ourselves purposely? Was it so that we never break free from the servitude of man.
What if it turns out that we are suppose to be servants or slaves or whatever noun you want to use, just not to man. What if there is an ultimate perfect being out there who created us to serve "it" and only "it"? What if this being is all loving and just? What if, becoming it's servants, made us like "it" and we never had to suffer again? We would be perfect, just like "it".
Would that be so bad? To be a slave (or servant or whatever) of a perfect being that would make us perfect as well. Sign me up for that servitude.
The truth of the matter is, that raw freedom is evil but freedom from man is necessary. As man is inherently evil, easily moldable and in need of saving. So who can save us? Literally.... Not superficially, not figuratively and not through life coach advice but literally?
Who?...
