Part I: The Basics of Man's Divinity-Needs, 


And The Whereof They Do Lead



Only Man has divinity-needs:

Divinity-needs to be pleased;

to be honored;

to be obeyed;

to be praised,

in prayers of utter dismay,

of come what will, come what may.


Only Man has divinity-needs:

Divinity-needs to be seen;

must be infamously-famous as known;

to be that one, alone, upon the throne;

at the center of one's life, one's people,

one's land, one's nation -- or else

(Upon Pain of Death) -- inquisitional-militarist run of knife-n-gun!


Only Man has divinity-needs:

Divinity-needs, in demanding recognition;

requiring respect's, unduly-obligatory, worship;

manifests scepter's rule as patriotism's-manipulation;

invades to save, only for conquest's occupation,

as a Super-Hero-Savior, Victor, who rapes-n-robs,

pillages and plunders, Spoils of War, sorely despoiled.


Only Man has divinity-needs:

Divinity-needs never satisfied;

an appetite always insatiable;

desires never to be denied.

Fetishes? Only but, addictions run wild,

as a, three-tines, Fork-For-Porking Trinity of three's-thrice

 -- Taxes, Tithes, & Lies.


Only Man has divinity-needs:

Divinity-needs all imagined: He thinks;

procreates to meditate, to create-n-destroy;

deftly-designs, a prototype in mind;

conspires to scheme, dreams to fabricate;

markets a wishing-well's spell of three's-thrice kinds:

Mental enslavement of men gone mind-blind.


All dressed up as “Judaism,” “Christianity,” “Islam;”

a trio easily revealed as but tastiest varieties of, lies', Lie-Pies

to ever tempt the mental palettes of meager men:

Meager men, ignorance-n-superstition laden -- and indubitably

Blind-Faith deceived, as zealously naive fools

driven by Organized-Religions -- fabricated by smarter men,

who designed ultimate deception, patently -- for Stool-Pigeons.




Part II: The Evil That Man's Divinity-Needs Serve To Do





Only Man has divinity-needs;

Divinity-needs to contemplate-n-obfuscate;

preferentially, in conspiratorial bias, differentiate;

put meat upon that, three-tines, Fork-For-Porking bone;

world's greatest novelists are men-as-Man, alone;

marketing the world's three's-thrice bestselling books;

albeit -- power's-control-n-profits' -- lies of hook-n-crook.



Available in, Only Man Has Divinity-Needs,

genres of three-tines, Fork-For-Porking, three's-thrice,

sold as feigned-as-Holy -- Tanakh, Bible, or Quran --

means to deceive each and every woman-n-child-n-man

in each and every land of minds utterly emptied of cognizance.

Get your mind emptied of cognizant intelligence today! Pick one!

Give it a liar's try -- as ointment for one's nonexistent Human Soul1.


Three-tines Study Guides provided as:

Gullibility for Dummies,

A Stool Pigeon's Instruction Manuel,

The Saga of a Non-Existent God,

A Tale of Halfwits-n-Dimwits;

available in multiple languages of every Stool-Pigeon's Religion.

Organized-Religion? Synonymous equivalence? Organized-Crime!



Part III: Three's-Thrice Is Not A Holy Trinity,


But A Man-As-Men Orchestrated Criminal Conspiracy!




Only Man has divinity-needs:

Divinity-needs to find himself a, “God,”

a Primal-Origin never revealed as met,

never spoken to in speaking, or alas, never found;

Man-as-men's improvisations coldest calculations,

to simply insert Man's-(Egomaniacal)-Self

within an anciently derived Ponzi-Scheme.


Religion's Organized Crime definitively defined?

Ponzi Scheme: a form of fraud in which belief

in the success of a nonexistent enterprise

is fostered by the payment of quick returns

to the first investors from money invested

by later investors. "a classic Ponzi scheme

built on treachery and lies."1


The overtly covert, insidiously, mind-blinding,

disciple-assimilation-conspired prototype-equation?

Not a one -- victims enslaved and mentally-undone

 -- to think it odd that Man be God, that factually,

Man is God, just as God is (equally of personage-identically)

none other than Man: Man-as-men with a Cartel's-Plan

for those fools deemed as lesser men: Sheeple-People2 Cattle!


Men, (beset-n-beleaguered-unawares) become docile,

domesticated, and placated fools, mentally-addicted

to ignorance-laden superstitions that always consist

of circularly-revolving around Man-(as-men)-made --

(Fictionally-Fabricated-Fairytale's perfected to palatable

taste of a three-tines, three's-thrice, Fork-For-Porking Trinity

 -- Organized-Religion's, Criminally Conspired, Concept!


What cunningly crafty (brilliantly innovative) cleverest concept

might I be speaking so openly of as an in-depth Research Writer,

who is not a genius, nor a, “Dumbed-Down,” dumb-dove?

Blind-Faith3: “Belief without true understanding, perception,

or discrimination,” that shall always remain as but magically-mystical,

incredulously-invisible, mythological-fables ignorantly-revered,

as Religious Triplets: A Chosen-People, A Gospels-Truth, A Prophet's Vision.


The greatest plague's epidemic of Pandemic-Consequences

to ever beset, or befall, Man as Mankind's Humanity

as that ultimate-gone-viral-evil? Gullibility for Dummies,

A Stool Pigeon's Instruction Manuel, The Saga of a Non-Existent God,

A Tale of Halfwits-n-Dimwits; available in multiple languages

of every Stool-Pigeon's Religion. Organized-Religion?

Synonymously-identical equivalence? Organized-Crime!

Available Online in three's-thrice-tines of Fork-Porking your mind.


Warning! Enter at your own risk! A cognizant mind is a terrible thing to waste!



Author's Closing Note:  A Man-Made-Plague's endless wars of seeking peace, advancing Civilization in the name of God(s), Country, & Freedom? Answer:  Men set to War's banner of Religion's monotheist/polytheist, God(s): i.e.: yesteryear's, Greek, Persian, Roman Empires, etc., not so long ago, The British Empire, and today's American Empire's American War Machine.  This piece is written as a Philosophical-Poem of testimony against the inherent evils spawned via Religion, Organized-Religion in particular, and the wickedness that men work as governments and nations seeking to conquer and rule other men of other nations, simply because they can, in playing God with other men's lives at a cost which all Humanity pays for incessantly -- in bloody battlefields' loss of Human life.  Fact:  Inarguably, Religion has served -- as per recorded Human history -- to take more Human lives (since the advent of Man, Civilization, & Religion) than it has ever proclaimed, professed, or proven to have saved in this one and only Life that matters in the right here and now of living and dying, but not for the lack of trying to live in the face of adversities of disasters, plagues, famines, and always that one more war to be fought as the war which will put an end to all War -- an end to war that shall never be seen upon any tomorrow's hoped for horizon, until the infectiously viral cause of war itself is isolated and eliminated from the very presence of all Man's Mankind that is Humanity. -- Marvin Thomas Cox-Flynn de Graham

Author's Note

Marvin Thomas Cox-Flynn de Graham
EVIDENTIAL FOOTNOTES:

1 Human Soul — The Bible Meaning of Soul:


AN ANIMAL LIFE OR BODY SUBJECT TO DEATH - NOT IMMORTAL


Num 19:13a KJV--Whosoever toucheth the dead bodyH5315 of any man that is dead, and purifieth not himself, defileth the tabernacle of the LORD and that soulH5315 shall be cut off from Israel.

To the average person, the word "soul" carries the meaning of an undying, immaterial essence that

continues in conscious existence after death. This conception is accepted without thought or

examination.


As soon as we start to look into the question, however, we begin to make very interesting discoveries.

We find, first of all, that the BIBLE meaning of soul is ALTOGETHER DIFFERENT from this, and

immediately the question arises:


How can the commonly accepted religious conception of soul be entirely different from the soul of the

Bible,seeing that the beliefs of Christendom are supposed to be based upon the Bible?


CHRISTENDOM ADMITS "IMMORTAL SOUL"

UNBIBLICAL, AND BASED ON GREEK PHILOSOPHY


When we turn to works of reference by the learned expositors of the immortal soul theory, we see how

this "believing a lie" works out quite naturally. Most of them make no attempt to conceal the fact that

scriptural teaching and popular theology are very different regarding the meaning of "soul." They are in

fact, proud that they have developed many "improvements" upon what they consider the partial and

hazy conceptions voiced by the "Holy men of God who spake as they were moved by the Holy Spirit"

(2 Peter 1:21). Webster's Dictionary says:


"The Christian conception of the soul derives from the Greek, especially as modified by the mystery

cults, as well as from the Bible..."


"The more exact determination of the Christian conception was reserved for the Church Fathers,

especially Saint Augustine, who taught that it is simple, immaterial and spiritual, devoid of quality and

spatial extension. He argued its immortality from the fact that it is the repository of Imperishable

truth."


Funk & Wagnall Dictionary is even more to the point:


"Among the ancient Hebrews 'soul' was the equivalent of the principle of life as embodied in living

creatures, and this meaning is continued throughout the Bible …


"It was Augustine especially who, in part on religious grounds and in part as the disciple of the later

Greek Philosophy, taught the simple, immaterial and spiritual nature of the human soul view which has

remained that of the scholastic philosophy and of Christian theologians down to the present time."

Hasting's well-known Bible Dictionary freely admits:


"Soul is throughout a great part of the Bible simply the equivalent of 'life' embodied in living creature.

In the earlier usage of the Old Testament it has no reference to the later philosophical meaning the

animating principle still less to the idea of an 'immaterial nature' which will survive the body."

The International Standard Bible Encyclopedia says:


"Soul has various shades of meaning in the Old Testament, which may be summarized as follows: Soul,

living being, life, self, person, desire, appetite, emotion and passion.


"Nephesh or soul, can only denote the individual life with a material organization or body.

"In the New Testament 'psuche' appears under more or less similar conditions as in the Old Testament http://www.learnbible.net/soul.html


Soul Definition & Meaning — Bible Dictionary: https://www.biblestudytools.com/dictionary/soul/
Soul in the Bible: The concept of an immaterial and immortal soul — distinct from the body — did not appear in Judaism before the Bablyonian exile but developed as a result of interaction with Persian and Hellenistic philosophies. Accordingly, the Hebrew word נֶ֫פֶשׁ‎, nephesh, although translated as “soul” " in some older English-language Bibles, actually has a meaning closer to "living being". Nephesh was translated into Greek in the Septuatgint as ψυχή (psūchê), using the Greek word for "soul". The New Testament also uses the word ψυχή, but with the Hebrew meaning and not the Greek.

The textual evidence indicates a multiplicity of perspectives on souls, including probable changes during the centuries in which the biblical corpus developed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soul_in_the_Bible

2 Ponzi Scheme — Ponzi Scheme: a form of fraud in which belief in the success of a nonexistent enterprise is fostered by the payment of quick returns to the first investors from money invested by later investors. "a classic Ponzi scheme built on treachery and lies." https://languages.oup.com/google-dictionary-en/

3 Sheeple-People — A word and term I find myself favoring in my attempt to communicate the all too factual reality that people tend to allow themselves—even seem to want—to be led, watered, and fed, much like sheep, trusting others with decisions and truths regarding their lives, their futures, their welfare, and their safety, rather then shouldering up such responsibilities themselves as individuals, in finding and enjoying the comfort of numbers. The word sheeple was first coined by actress and Wall Street Journal writer, Barbara Anderson, in 1984.

The human ego sets itself up for pain through these tendencies you list. I believe they all originate in the dark cellar of the mind as responses, howbeit unconscious ones, to the fear of death.
