We are a Religion based on the Truth |
The Church of Reality by definition is a religion that is based on honesty and truth. We of course have to earn that definition by our deeds but it logically has to be intrinsic to our doctrine. After all, if the name of your religion is the Church of Reality then the name doesn't mean anything without honesty. After all, Reality is by definition the sum of everything that is true. If we start trying to pass off Bullshit as truth then our religion has no meaning. Just because this church has the name Reality on its virtual door doesn't make us real or honest. Integrity has to be more than a slogan. We are obligated to live it for real. We are a church that has to earn its name and if we don't earn it then we don't deserve to keep it.
If the Church of Reality doesn't commit to real reality then our religion has no meaning. We have to earn our name.
The Church of Reality is not an institution as much as it is a dream. If we as an institution stay true to the dream then we really are the Church of Reality. If we stray from the dream and become dishonest and corrupt, then we become the Church of Bullshit and the real Church of Reality will be a church in the minds of those people who stay true to reality and maintain the honesty and integrity that is required to be worthy of the Reality name.
The Church of Reality is different from other religions because it has made Reality its holy responsibility. The word Reality is its Sacred message. "What is Real?" is our Sacred Question. Our first mission is to grow the Tree of Knowledge. Honesty, integrity, truth, responsibility, accountability, scrutiny, these are our core principles. Our name is our message and it is our core belief. Our dharma is our commitment to the truth.
By taking the name Church of Reality we are making a commitment to humanity that we are going to honor the name as a sacred trust.
In taking the name Church of Reality our religion is making a covenant of trust with humanity to live up to that name. The concept of reality is core to the evolutionary advancement of the human race. To abuse this name is a sin against humanity. When a person becomes a Realist they are making a personal commitment to intellectual honesty and personal integrity. This is not a commitment to be taken lightly. We hold a sacred trust by claiming this name and it is our duty to the human race to be trustworthy so that the name has true meaning.
