Christianity's mistaken view of the secondary resurrection at the expense of the primary resurrection
The secondary resurrection, the still imperfect form of materialisation, has in reality become the central point in the Christian view of the world and has thereby placed "the great primary resurrection" in the shade.
Excitement about the secondary or "the little resurrection" has entirely overshadowed or veiled the perception of reincarnation or rebirth from life to life, so that believers in Christianity completely deny this and are convinced that the living being has only one physical earthly life.
This belief has in turn brought about a new superstition concerning the justification of the apparent injustices of existence or daily life so that one cannot give any satisfactory intellectual or logical explanation of the very various, apparently unjust fates to which living beings are subjected.
One tries to remedy all this by means of sacraments and christening ceremonies, and with the belief in God's mitigation, through the crucifixion of Jesus, tempering justice with mercy and forgiving beings their sins.
No wonder that the world redeemer could foresee the "antichrist" who must give rise to the doomsday or Armageddon of "the last days", the religious and political chaos, the culmination of the killing principle under which mankind today sighs and groans, despite the sermons of thousands of priests about neighbourly love.
No, the beings' fate is not a question of an angry God who has to be appeased by the assassination of the world redeemer so that he can have pity on mankind and forgive them their sins.
The beings' fates are not at all a question of sin and forgiveness, but exclusively of cause and effect.
It is a question of knowledge or ignorance of cosmic chemistry and technique.
Where a being does not know cause and effect he acts blindly.
To act blindly when one cannot see cannot be to sin.
There cannot therefore ever exist any sin to get angry about.
A Godhead who gets angry is not a God but an idol, a being that is itself blind.
It is a being that belongs among all the other beings walking blindly or groping their way forward in the darkness.
A human being capable of getting angry is not a human being but a being still not "resurrected from the dead".
It is a being that through the shadows of the grave will gradually blaze a trail forwards towards the light, towards "the great resurrection", "the total initiation" or "the great birth".
