Deep State in Religion?

Everywhere "but" there, right?

Today is the day you learn something valuable whether you realize it or not.

“One peep under the tent,” it is called.

You know, over the last decades there has been a lot ruckus about a so called, “deep state.” The term is elusive, at least in my mind. I find it hard to narrow down exactly what the “deep state” is. Is it a person, a group, an organization, all of the above, or even none? It is one of the catch all phrases, a whistle call if your will, specifically designed, I believe, as such. “Better watch out for the deep state, right?” “The deep state is to blame!” “The deep state is gonna gobble us up,” all and sundry scary. Does it not sound like childish, immature superstition? Does it not sound kinda paranoid, kinda conspiratorial? Remember to boogie man? He was not real, or was he? Maybe he had another name?

Now, don't get me wrong, I don't propose to tell anyone what to, or what to not believe, I just relay information, however viewing the term pragmatically, it really does appear to be used in conjunction with dubious topics of question. All topics except one. Religion. “Religion can’t be compromised, right? [Shhhh…be quiet]

For some reason people can espouse, or view in their minds, a “deep state” at work “everywhere,” even in public bathrooms, but for some reason they believe, wrongfully, that no “deep state” was ever involved in what is today called, “religion.” What do you mean? I mean, the functional, society groomed paranoid believes everything is “tampered with,” and that may be true, but when it comes to religious books such as the Bible being translated, they believe that the whole thing is Kosher. Is it? How many people read and speak Hebrew or Aramaic, or Greek?

The people of the lands are constantly infighting over religious dogma. Each calling the other a beast, an “infidel.” [Christians used it first, now Muslims, strange?] Such has been the way for ages. Why is that? Because the individuals who profess “religion” have not studied their traditions to its distilled essence, and thus they find division in the realm, in people and even in their own traditions. They have not studies the geography, the secular history surrounding certain events, the laws of the era, anything, except what the clergy has taught. The same clergy aforementioned throughout sundry posts on this platform involved in sundry dastardly acts. When the people don't know their professed religion, its true teachings, its essence, and its scripture, then they are primed to be dupes, suckers, tricks, marks, and victims of those who do. They can be told by clergy to hate anyone, at anytime simply because they have a scripture to back it up. Biblical scripture is written in a dual language. One for the profane, one for the enlightened and it can be manipulated via translation or interpretation. With eyes towards that view, would it not be rational, pragmatic, sane, to deduce that maybe, just maybe, with regards to Biblical translation, the “deep state” of old has pulled a “fast one” on the children of All Mighty God, opening up them wide for abuse? Is it possible that the control mechanism of divide, rule, religious violence, inter alia, mind washing, racism and sundry other deficiencies finds it home in the translation of divine scriptures? Be honest. I believe so.

Believe what you will. Fairy tale land is a comfortable place, and most are well content to hold their consciousness there. In such a place, genuine comprehension, genuine scripture or reality is not required, all that is required is your continued discriminatory “religious” biases, your continued blind allegiance to evil doers and continued belief in cyclones of nothingness brought to you by others.

Meanwhile, as the Western realm spins, the people of other traditions are pondering on matters of a much different seriousness. War.
