Taking our welfare into our hands
Man's political confusion is due to his lacking contemplation of the general man as a consequence of which the pillars of community have been usurped by different schools of governance and put into the disarray they're currently in.
From the contemplation of the general man springs the understanding of the welfare of mankind, the latter being the only object worthy to behold in truth as the truth of every individual man's existence is a miserable dying.
And whatever our concerns, from mankind's welfare must we take our share. Hence he who can grasp it, provides a glimpse of the axis around which we circle and glimpsing it we can align it with our needs, thus confirming the exaltedness of our course.
To delegate the alignment of our course to anyone is a crime, for it is our business that no-one can take over in our stead. The idea of organised religion is to find a platform on which one can come together, thus facilitating the further alignment and its organisation.
Attention has been paid to Christians' desires in shaping our societies until their crowning achievement, individual freedom, but in it necessarily lies the dormancy of continued alignment, for it cannot be done by free individuals lest they've matured enough to comprehend their place as individuals in the world and in particular their individual-general dual nature and, as a reflection of this, constitute themselves on the basis of their best understanding of their generalised welfare in a council that aims to establish it.
So, first we demand to hold such council, then we look out for the kind of counsel that furthers its aims, while staying in control of our self-constitution every step of the way. Verily, I suffer under the immature freedom of man and his conceit that as a special man he can be greater than the general man, for they aren't contributing to our development anymore.
