What if all the modern mystics are medicated and that’s why we don’t hear God? What if, rather than deign as divine, we define as disorder, murdering our mediums for messagings from God?
Then, as is the nature of evil, a good and truth is turned on its head. Transcendence, Revelation, Epiphany—all are still possible! But through drugs, not spirit; by chemistry, not Communion; a farce of experience in forsake of the rare, but sublime, true.
What if science, as new religion, must kill the old and—as man is made in the image of God—this includes man himself: mind, body, and soul?
What need is there for man if there is no reason for his labor—no toil, tribulations, no purpose; no God, no Creation (though we struggle with this as Creation is all around despite nihilism’s effort to dimune, unable to outright dismiss); no purpose?
“The Kingdom of God is within you.”
Perhaps this is why evil attacks the spiritually strong and keeps in somnambulance the spiritually asleep, unawakened to truth and reality of in.
Elimination of God, eradication of man—killing of the Kingdom—this is the end state of evil.
