We Honor the Tree of Knowledge

The Tree of Knowledge represents the sum total of all human understanding. It is the shared knowledge of the human race. It is the repository of everything we know. The fact that you can read this is because you can read and communicate with a common language that is among the fruits of the Tree of Knowledge. The human race survives and thrives through our shared knowledge. Our understanding of reality and our evolutionary process is through growing the Tree of Knowledge.

The Tree of Knowledge is what separates us from the animals. The Tree of Knowledge represents the soul of humanity. We are better than we were hundreds of years ago because our Tree of Knowledge has grown, and if we continue to evolve in the Sacred Direction, our Tree of Knowledge will continue to grow. It is through the tree that we explore reality as it really is, and attempt to answer the Sacred Question - What is Real?

Humanity is more like a hive of bees than we are individuals. We are tied together through our common knowledge. When you look around, everything you own and everything you see that was manufactured was created by other people. Most everything involved thousands of other people who all work together in a society to produce the goods and services that we rely upon every day. Even when we think, we are using words that came from other people and we are thinking about a society that was created by other people. Much of who we are is defined by the society we are connected to and the information that we rely upon in the Tree.

Therefore, we in the Church of Reality dedicate ourselves to the growth, pruning, and maintenance of the Tree of Knowledge.

Newsflash

Marc Perkel, the founder of the Church of Reality is now listed on the American TSA list as a terrorist suspect. The TSA (US Transportation Security Administration) maintains a "selectee list" which lists people who are flagged for heightened security screening. This list, which has not caught a single real terrorist, is used mostly as a political enemies list against activists who are speaking out against government abuses of power.

"In some ways this is a badge of honor", states Marc Perkel, First One of the Church of Reality. In this environment of repression of non-Christian religions in America, if you aren't on the TSA list you aren't getting your message out. I consider it to be an acknowledgement that I'm doing my job."

This selectee list is not the worst list that the TSA has. Marc is not on the no fly list which would have prevented him from flying at all. This is just a harassment list that the US government keeps to intimidate activists.

As a result, the United States of America is now on the Church of Reality list of nations who are hostile to Realism and Realists and the US is a nation that is moving in a dangerous direction towards oppressing religious freedom.
