Having studied some other relgion’s moral codes, I’d say that Christianity and Judaism are basically the same and Buddhism and Hinduism in agreement, Hinduism has a bit more detail but nothing opposed. the sati /suttee thing is something out of great antiquity which was actually forbidden a long time ago, and was never meant to be forced. Stupid idiots actually disobeyed their scriptures in that regard.

A detail.

But the 4 religions mentioned about have basically the same more codes or at least in strong agreement. Koran is another whole issue.... Jainism is also, afaik, similar, and for sure Sikhism.

Since this country was founded on Judeo-Christian moral precepts, that should be the standard and no sane or good person, of any religion, could disagree. If they disagree, it means they want legislated immorality.

As far as the elites, they’re just plain evil, and they must be defeated. Whatever they think, it’s evil, whatever they believe, is evil. “Do what thou wilt is the whole of the law” - Alastair Crowley - is their belief.

Shintoism is another that is in alignment when it is followed per the precepts.

C.S. Lewis wrote a great book based on a series of lectures he gave. The book was called “The Abolition of Man”.

Its a discussion of universal values, their removal from forms of modern education, and there re-education of western man to fit into modern totalitarian systems of government.

(...By the removal of the emotional training needed support reason in the fight against the appetites; If reason is staring across the wasteland at desire, desire will win every time with out the support of the emotions.)

I have ruthlessly condensed the book. It was a good book, about 70 pages long.

(Time for bed! Good night!)

Isaiah 45:18
For thus says the Lord, who created the heavens (he is God!), who formed the earth and made it (he established it; He did not create it empty, He formed it to be inhabited!): “I am the Lord, and there is no other.

LUKE 9:35
A voice came from the cloud, saying, "This is My Son, Whom I have chosen; listen to Him."

Also, Vedas do not sanction sati. Sati is where when a man dies and his wife loved him sooo much she wanted to die with him and threw herself on the funeral pyre.

Later, in certain corrupt, superstitious, venal cults in Hindustan, circumstances may have come about in which widows were shunned, thrown from their cast (outcast), and offered the pyre to avoid the shame of becoming untouchable.

No Indian citizen would publicly defend this today, although I understand things can still be really difficult for widows, esp. young ones.
