There are no stupid people, just stupid cultural styles. All cultural styles are stupid to some extent, which means that we are all stupid to whatever degree we are still involved with them.
Nationality and ideology are poisonous relics of history. Engaging in politics of any kind is indulging in the delusion that you are different than your brothers and sisters. This delusion is going to kill us all, for certain, and soon unless we radically abandon it.
Your beliefs are the least important thing about you. Your beliefs stand between you and global unity. Forget about your atheism, theism, libertarianism, existentialism. These are all baraoque contortions of language, which is a trap. Language is the barrier between you and your experience of completion in the present.
Meditate or do whatever you need to do to stop the language machine in your head from eating your reality.
We must stop using reality as a screen to project all of these systems onto. Rid yourself of conclusions, answers, philosophies and other nonsense. Just be available, open, calm, present. Live out of your own heart- this is the only true morality and it is common to all of us. In the past, we have been mute to our hearts and so we have required beliefs to keep our heads in line. This is unsustainable. Just take a look around.
Temples, mosques, churches, universities, trade centers, shopping malls- all of these institutions are created out of fear and trembling in the face of an honest experience of life.
