The Universe and Society

  Hello! I'm Marcelo, from Brazil. I love studying sociology, psicology, philosophy and etc. and I also use entheogenic substances (mostly DMT) constantly that helps me think about those themes. All of my articles are original, and I would love to chat with people

The Organist Manifesto. Episode Five.

Those who work for the ascent of the Organism learned from Communism what decisions we should not make. Those who work for the Organist rebirth shall be completely immersed in the cause to avoid the dissemination of lies. Aiming to avoid an epidemy of corruption over the government the rebirth must begin from the inside out, individually. The organists shall, before trying to change others, learn how to change her/himself, and, with that, keeping distance of what keep us away from our true potential and lead us to a way to emotional elitism, that restricts love and distributes hate. 

 The organist pioneers shall know how to love every single human, for doing so leads to prevention of social demolishing that would come if the individual cells of the organism started to hate each other. The organist shall produce all he consumes* for her/him to become independent and having a complete life. After all, food is one of the Essential services, thus, restrictly having to be free of any charges, do not accept to pay for being allowed to live. The organist shall avoid buying what he can do himself. It is recoomended the common practice of woodwork in organist societies to disseminate the autonomy and cultural and techonolgical diversity.

(*P.S.: I’ll probably I’ll write a topic of tips on what to produce and for what use)

The Organist Manifesto. Episode Four.

 Many criticize, idly, societies that are based on work without monetary wage, claiming that without money there would be no motivation to work. This argument is ill-founded, wage isn’t an outcome of labour, it is only a toast to reward the worker for his obedience, just like you feed your dog a cracker once he obeys you. In the organist society work would be done in order to obtain the direct product of said work, if one is working to produce a hammer, his “wage” would be this hammer, for he is working because he needs the hammer. Another factor that would prevent the birth of idleness (theorically produced by the absence of motivation to work) would be another psychological strategy based on morality; idleness would be condemned by society through personal criticizing the one that refuses to work, but without hurting his self-steem, instead, offering him something to do in order to help the people; he would be criticized because his (absence of) action would be detrimental towards society (that, without work, would perish), thus, afecting his own life; those who refuses to work would be seen as an obstruction towards the well-being of the population, they would be influenced by society to act as well. Labour would be something extremelly common in basically all phases of the human life, and if everyone does what they can, whenever they can, there would be no overload of work to anyone, because there would be no one absent of working, this way, all work would be well distributed through all population. Also, individually, through the organist ideology, living inactivly in your society would be unconfortable in the organist citizen’s heart.

 A great example of how cultural morality works towards a great future can be seen in the incredibly fast industrialization of Japan during the Meiji age, extremely influenced by the disciplined and organized ideology brought by the millenial asian philosophy. Equally, countries without any kind of social organized ideology easily falls into social chaos and dificulty in his evolution, like Brazil, as an example.

Crisis in the Libertarian Expression

 I believe we face a crisis in our options in resisting the strong and unfair society we live in. Many of those who claim to be “libertarians” are based on communist ideals. Communism is a way to destroy the industrial capitalism, but we live in a more advanced kind of capitalism, the informational capitalism, that being said, the communist “weapons” have little power in his work to destroy this kind of society. So, the young left generation is (in its majority) based on a ideology that do not apply to our society anymore, many of those libertarians have lost their faces. Sadly, facing such ideological crisis I do not see many new ideals rising. Of course we still have anarchism, besides this one having lost many of it’s original ideals, followed by many diversions that detaches from the origin of anarchism. What do we have left? 

 The libertarian thinkers usually have only those two options, either he supports anarchism, or he supports communism. We cannot live in the past anymore, those are ideologies from centuries behind, they must be renewed, we must have a new name, a new face, some new ideology that we may use to fight our battle, the 21st century battle, the “left-wing” supporters are too many, we are too weak because of our retrograde ideas that are weak against the ever-evolving capitalism, we need new libertarian ideas, new libertarian faces if we plan to fight towards real freedom, trying to achieve a new encouraging idea the Organist society is born. We are enormous, if we find a modern ideology to cling in, we may be invincible at last.

The Organist Manifesto. Episode Three.

 Walking along with health we find sanitation. Thinking of hygiene, good nutrition would make some of the human body biological waste useful for fertilizing the soil, feces are used in many asiatic cultures as a fertilizer, and even urine is used (for urea), even though it is considered a tabboo for looking unhealthy, we must not forbid ouselves to do the best for society because of baseless thoughts. In the organist society the concept of “throwing away” is highly banalized, because in this planet’s nature there is no “away”, that being said, the organist society wouldn’t waste it’s time producing things that would stay exactly the same to haunt the planet’s health for hundreds, thousands or even millions of years. Instead, the organist society will need to have the knowledge of thinking of what is trully necessary before even thinking of producting it; once something is considered essential, the production of said product would have to be the healthiest possible, and when you read “healthy”, please think of something that will respect the creation-destruction cycle of nature in it’s own time.   The production in this society couldn’t be massive, but need-based, avoiding waste of products, materials, time and effort. The material used in the production of something would mostly be made of organic-based substances, focusing on the possibility of it’s decomposition, but trying not to compromise the utility of said product (a technology that is already being worked on), and if it isn’t possible to use a biodegradable substance the organist society will highly invest in recycling other materials, making it easier and “cheapier” to product more when in need.

[human-studies]

The Organist Manifesto. Second Episode.

 These two ideologies (mutualism and love) are indispensable; for the action of all is an action for all, this way, for example, all the food that is collected or produced is collected/produced in order to feed the whole society, for feeding is one of the basic needs for the survival of the human body, that being said, this may never be commercialized, for doing so means charging a fee for your stay on this planet.

 In the current society, however, we do not just commercialize food, but all the gastronomic service behind it (that justifies the price on the food in a money-based society), but that subject will be explored later. Essential services for the permanence of life in the human physical body, as mediocre as said life may be, never, under any circumstances, should be monetarized or commercialized in any way, after all, being the human the main piece of society, his life has to be priority. That makes free, acessible and qualified services (along with feeding) such as distribution of potable water, that have to be always clean, for poluting water that, one day, we may drink, is working towards human extinction. Water, essential for the existence of the human physical body has to be distributed according to need, trying to make scarcity impossible and always avoiding excess, for no excess is healthy. The access to health (translated in prevention and cure of diseases, epidemies or any physical or psycological flaw whatever it may be) obviously in the organist patterns will also be free, acessible and qualified, for it is one of the Essential Services, health being what keeps the human body functional in his needed capacity, what is essential for living (instead only surviving), and working for the proper functioning of society. P.S.: I'll get in more details on the distribution of those Essential Services when I talk about the infrastructure of the organist cities.

P.S.: I will get in more details about the distribution of the essential services when I write about the infrastructure of the organist cities.

The Organist Manifesto. First Episode

 The body of the human individual, even though it seems to be something singular, it only is for it is composed by many other unities that work for themselves, unconsciously acting for the proper functioning of the human body. In the idea of mutualism in the many parts of the animal organism, the malfunction of one organ may lead to the ruin of the whole greater being: the organism. Equally, as an organism is composed of naive individualist organs, those organs are composed by naive individualist tissues, and those, by naive individualist cells. Following this line of formation and systems, an aglomeration of human beings create society, and this, without the human “individualist union”, falls apart. The organist society emphasizes the human mutualism and the fact that this must be obligatory.

 The human posesses his mechanical side (his social action), and his vast ideological side (the ideologies that guides his actions unconsciously), for the proper functioning of society it is necessary to obtain support from both of those sides, mostly from the ideological side (for it is harder to guide, and stronger in action). In other words it takes humans to follow a philosophy that matches the needs of the social aspect; as an example, for the maintenance of the capitalist system we need greedy, competitive, “individualist” (or shall we call it egoist) humans, so this way they will become active in the market and doing good for the economy (the master entity of the capitalist society). In the organist society the main philosophies will have to be mutualism (the cornerstone of society, unifying the humans for the greater good of them all) and love (translated in support, help and altruism, it is what “glues” humans all together for the same objective, the cornerstone of mutualism).

The is no solution for crisis

 In Brazil we are going through a deep and serious crisis, and I know we are not the only ones. The whole world is falling into crisis once again, 1929, 2008, and here we are, what are we going to do to “solve” it this time? Ressurect Keynes? We, the people, see the crisis as a problem that must be solved, but we usually can’t notice that this isn’t a particular problem, it is a state that come and go, and we still accept to live with it. You say you hate the crisis, but love capitalism, how does that make any sense? The system you love so much is faded to fall into crisis again and again, how can you hate the crisis and love the system that creates it? Capitalism is the epitome of successful failure, it is a broken window that made people believe that this is how a window should look like. How can we be so foolish?

 In order to solve economic problems, many rulers found it wise to feed a dictatorship, and guess what? It worked. Before Hitler, german children used deutschmarks to produce kites; one piece of bread was worth a million marks, so Hitler enslaved his population (german homossexuals, jews, black people and other minorities) in order to force them into hard work to make Germany great again (does it sound familiar?), and it worked! One of the worst economies at the time was miraculously solved. Something similar happened here in Brazil, during our Ditadura Militar (Military Dictatorship), one of the worst (probably the worst) times for those who like to be “free” (in the capitalist logic of freedom); though it was horrible for the society, it was beautiful for the economy.

 Point is: dictatorship is one of the best ways to keep a good economy, dictatorship keeps us away from the crisis (if the dictator knows what he is doing), and I do not like to live in a system that works this way, I do not want to “be free” in a system that drinks from the people’s blood to feed the invisible entity, The Economy. Capitalism is “against” dictatorship because dictatorship makes the workers aware of their slave state, while “free countries” hypnotizes us to feed the god Economy without letting us know, it is a dictatorship that we think we love to be free in.

Answering Questions #2: Learning through the Universe

Answering again my friend (if I can call you so) @imcryinghere, who asked: 

“So we’re bound to never understand natures true meaning. A follow-up question: what do we do with that information? How should we change our behaviour? Or should we change it at all?”

You have very good questions, I must say. Questions hard to answer, for I am not sure about the answer, while writting this post I’ll try to figure it out, and anyone who disagree please comment so I can understand it completly. So let’s get to it. What do we do with the information we receive? First of all we must think how do we receive this information, (it helps to understand if you use DMT), specifically in the case observed, we receive information directly into our brains, just like an ultimate philosophic insight, it works just like thinking about something untill you figure it out, but in a really fast way, answers and information in general just pop-up in your mind, and what do we do with it? We try to apply it in our lives, sometimes unconsciously (ideas and social concepts that change our atitude towards some situations without our knowledge of it), for example, Jack hates homossexuals, but during a trance/meditation/insight/discussion he learns that his hate makes no sense and every single person deserves love, now Jack is walking in a park and see a gay couple, unconsciously he would normally offend them under his breath, but know, without even thinking, he doesn’t care about them, or even think of it as a beautiful expression of love. So, that’s how it changes us, it is something unconscious (most of the times), but sometimes you learn that some attitude is wrong and consciently try to stop it (like myself criticizing people including myself), I believe we do should change, because we learned if for a reason, and being something we learned directly through the universe, it is recommended for you to apply it in your life, for you are the universe.

Trip Report: Why do we fear death?

 As I stated before, I have a year long experience with ayahuasca in religious settlements, but recently I felt the need of using ayahuasca by myself, and so I did (even though, I do not recommend it). This week I brewed MHRB (Mimosa tenuiflora) with Banisteriopsis caapi, forming an “anahuasca” known in Brazil as “Jurema’s wine”, and so I drank it (a total of 200ml) and it worked very well. I’m not going to detail too much the whole experience, but I would like to focus on one portion of the trance.

 I was on the floor with my black cat, Bastet, and the surroundings were really dark, so I dove head-on on a journey about death, secrets and misteries. And in that trance I felt I was going to die later in that day (but as you see, I’m still alive). I wasn’t really scared, I was amazed, but still, I didn’t want to die, I got a little bit mad, but I questioned myself about being mad, why am I mad with my approaching death? What do I do with my life that is so much worth living, so good that I refuse to die on that day? I felt like I didn’t want to die, but didn’t understood why, what am I doing here? Why am I alive? I didn’t receive the answer, so I decided to keep hanging on my life untill I discovered it.

 I started to guess why do we fear death, and I found two possible answers: 

1 - The Fear of the Unknown: Quoting H.P. Lovecraft: “The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown”. Humans are (presumably) the only species on earth that is conscient about his own incoming death, being the only species or not, the fact is: We do. And so we’ve been since the begining of times trying to discover what happens when we die, and since we don’t have any actual proof of where we go when we die, this is probably the greatest mistery of mankind, we fear death because we don’t know what is going to happen, eternal void? Hell fire? Another life? So many options most of us don’t want to experience it to discover, fearing the worst.

2 - The Essence of Life: Through my trance state, I “found out” that life is a trance state, consciousness, being aware of being alive and learning is a kind of trance, and since you are alive, there is something inside you that forces you to keep on (I’m not going to talk about mental disorders in this post), we aren’t alive to pay taxes or to work, keep society healthy, this is only our “social” life, but not our essential life, there is a hidden room inside us that hides the mistery of life, and living is keeping on the world with this mistery, when we discover what’s inside this room, there is no more life, for we had understood it whole. Being alive is keeping up a secret that you can’t discover, but you still try to, being alive is trying to find out what is being alive.

The Death of Ego

 Let’s turn a little bit into the beauty of psychology dipped in entheogenic substances. As I dated a girl that loved psychology, and I myself had some taste for it, I learned some things and had the chance of experiencing it during entheogenic trips and meditation. In this post I will focus on the concept of Ego while trying to explain some things I learned during ayahuasca trips and how it changed me, as requested. Well, I am not a psycology professional, but as I learned, Ego works like a guardian that forbids your ID (your conscious self) from reaching your subconscious (the side of your consciousness you usually don’t explore), why? Because in your subconscious you hide the deepest fears and shames that, if exposed, can (and will) hurt your pride and can damage your social, emotional and mental life.

 But also, your ego (some places call it “lower” ego) is responsible for things like seeking superiority, blaming others (and yourself), getting offended, justifying hate, etc. how is this bad? Once you experience spiritual awakening and start trying to be a better person, you will find yourself fighting against those things as they stand in your way. Not only in this situation, but also, as ego hides your subsconscious from your ID, you may star to deliver diseases (physical and emotional) related to traumas you had in your past that are now hidden in your subconscious, and can’t be found because of the ego! Meditation, hypnosis, psychiatrist meetings and entheogenic substances trance state all end up doing the same thing: Killing ego (or, killing “lower ego”), doing so you reach your subconscious and will find there the root of your problems, being able to solve them. This is something I learned and experienced during ayahuasca trips (and I’m still working on it).

[human-studies]

Answering questions and the Death of Ego.

Answering @imcryinghere: “[...]  I would love to know what exactly you learned about yourself while taking this? How is it life-changing? Please be specific.”

 Well, as I mentioned in the original post, it is impossible to explain what happen during ayahuasca, and I mean it. Why? I tried to describe it in this post. “Speaked” language is really weak. Many people believe that we think through words, but we don’t, we speak through energy, feelings, chemical connections, whatever you may call, but not words, that’s how we sometimes forget words, but don’t forget the thing we are trying to describe. What did I learned exactly? I’ve been doing ayahuasca for a good long time now and I’ve learned a lot, not only during the trance, but after ir as well, but I can’t describe what I learned exactly (because of the chains of language), the teachings works through metaphors and pure energy, I learned a lot about the concept of “Everything”, and I once saw that Everything is a small portion of a thread of a concept art of the whole Everything.

 As the main chemical of ayahuasca is the DMT, and we produce DMT in our brains, and this chemical is the main component of dreams, trances and dreams share some similarities, as an example, some visions of ayahuasca work as a metaphoric message that you can interpretate, and even if you don’t, later you will understand. Personally in ayahuasca I learned a lot about Ego (just like in Freud description) and subconscious, and also the damage the ego does to your spirit, privating you from rising to good vibrations. I will talk about ego in the next post.

We need maximum wage

 As I stated many and many times before, money is the main fuel of the human life in our society (while in reality, it isn’t, but we are forced to accept it), but I already chattered a lot about that. Let’s pretend it is a good idea to manage human lives through some green paper notes, thinking this way, it is a logical thing that we should have a minimum wage, right? Of course, at least we should have the least to buy food, basic needs and trains our sons and daughters to the world we are unable to leave.

 We have a minimum wage because we accept our insignificance over money in such a apollonian way Nietzsche would beat us with a whip, if we know that money is used to give us the basic of life, we clearly know that (at least that’s very clear to the poor) money means nothing more than survival in this cruelty we live. So what does some people do with 4.5 billion dollars? Is their lives so expensive? How many sons and daughters they have to raise? Do they eat that much? 

 It is obvious that those billionares don’t see money as a recipt for survival anymore, money, to them, became a worship symbol, having their bills molding in some dark corner strongly fortified makes them happy, make them feel important, while in their street there are people praying to all the gods they find to have one billionth of what the billionares have, why should people be allowed to gather money they don’t use? To rub it in the face of the poor? We need a maximum wage because it is childish to have people storing money they don’t use while there are people who need it, we need maximum wage because money was created to secure people’s survival, and not to make white old men happy, we need maximum wage because the world is already too uneven with the existence of money itself.

TO ALL THE GIRL THAT FOLLOW ME.

We (myself and a friend from school) are gathering personal stories about sexual harassment (be it a strange look in the street, cat-calling or even rape), and I would like to ask you women followers to contribute with your own personal stories.

Of course it will be anonymous, even if you say who you are, we won’t give any names to the stories. Our main goal in this presentation is to show everyone that sexual harassment is common in our society, and that’s ridiculous! We are showing that the majority of the women we know have been through sexual harassment in their lives, be it you sister, your friend, your girlfriend or even your mother. And we are also doing this work to show the victims of those crimes that they shouldn’t be ashamed of telling their stories, because it is a crime and it has to be exposed, sexual abusers benefit from the fact that the majority of the girls don’t talk about their abuse to abuse them safely! 

So if any of you women want to contribute with your stories in my askbox or fanmail, I thank you! It will be kept anonymously and I will post the results of this work when it happen. Also: If someone tries to abuse you, make a scene! Tell everyone, make everyone know that this man is a rapist, don’t be ashamed of your stories, make them be ashamed of what they are.

ENEM and Gender Equality

 So, if you are a student in Brazil, (or if you want a job) you will have to take the ENEM test at least once in your life. What is ENEM? It is the Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (something like National High School Test), it is a long test with a composition that score points that you use to join a university. Well, what do I have to say about it? This year’s composition was about the persistence in the violence against women, all together with lots os questions about Simone du Beauvoir, so what? So what that many misogynists were forced to write the most important composition in their lives about protecting something they hate: Women’s rights.

 Of course many people raged about it, they said ENEM is “doctrinizing” woman, and criticized Simone du Beauvoir herself. Well, this was a great shock to our society because at least once brazilian people were forced to face equal rights, and were forced to support it. But sadly, we still have people that, for some reason, raged against it, like two politicians: Bolsonaro (who I always talk about for his persistence in doing shit, and also the one that told a woman that he wouldn’t rape her because she didn’t deserve it) and Marco Feliciano (an evangelic pastor that somehow became the president of Human Rights and Minorities, NO JOKE), how in the world can someone who abolish gay marriage and criticize women’s right be the president of Human Rights and Minorities??

 Anyway, Bolsonaro still blames our president Dilma for “turning people into idiots” by using violence against women in an national exam, what does Dilma have to do with the choosing of this subject? I also don’t know. The fact is: In Brazil, when we are forced to face equal gender equalities, we see how retrograde we are, and mostly, how stupid some politics can be, claiming that protecting equal rights will turn us into marxist monsters, is this their excuse to continuing disrespecting women?

Real comments taken from the page Direita Carioca on facebook, those people are commenting about a video taken from a party going on inside a prision cell. Translation:

“It would be a shame if a fire on purpouse, then there would be no one left alive, even a bomb or poisoning, it never hurts to dream”

“I would shoot them all”

“A truck full of fuel and a match box.”

“Oh, a bomb. Boom. It’s solved”

“Throw a grenade”

“A vision from hell”

“Imagine a curto circuito (explosion)”

“Forgetting a bomb there...”

Here I come again to talk about the extreme right-wing on Brazil. And I come without a smile on my face, for it isn’t a difficult thing to see these kind of atrocities around here. I am not protecting the left-wing or anything, but I think it is something anormal and special that brazilian right-wing activists are moved by hate and this fascist feeling of killing others, mostly influenced by a fascist called Jair Bolsonaro.

Well, I didn’t came here to speak about what is “right” and what isn’t, for I believe you, reader, can do it for yourself. I’ve addressed a similar theme a while ago, but in this post I would like to analyse how would be the world if all those “wishes” we see in those comments came to be true. In Brazil it is common to see the rich hating the poor. Well, in order to make this post easier to understand, let’s see “the poor” and “the rich” as a whole class, a unity. What does the poor do in our society?

Well, if all the poor were dead, everyone would be rich? Right? There would be no crime and no violence, right? Of course not. Our society is based on work, there is employment behind every section of society, and if the poor (as a unity) were all dead, what would change? Our society have a special place for the poor: the dangerous almost slave-ish works, for I don’t see the rich stacking blocks of clay with cement to build a house, I don’t see the rich cleaning and sweeping the floor of my school, I don’t see the rich working as an attendent on McDonalds.

I know this is a horrible, inhuman comment, but who would babysit your children and clean your house if not the poor? The rich forgot how to do those simple things, the rich are mounted on the poor, the rich uses the poor to create their empire and slave them! Poor people are used in such degraded jobs, and are so many that we are taught not to see them, the poor (again: as a unity) build our worlds while we force them to do so, just so we can forbid them to enjoy what they did for us. On this side of the picture, it is funny how the rich hate the poor so much, when their wealth is made of their bodies.

My experience with ayahuasca.

 As I said in this post, I will explain my experience with ayahuasca. Well, ayahuasca (or santo daime) is a beverage produced by amazonic/andean natives with the liana Jagube, the leaf of a bush called Chacrona, water and fire. This beverage is a cup full of DMT (dimetiltriptamine, I believe), a strongly hallucinogenic (actually, entheogenic) substance that we produce through our pineal gland naturally, in very small proportions, that is responsible for dreams, trances, etc.

 I met ayahuasca last year, 2014, in a place called Porta do Sol that manages rituals (called trabalhos, works) with ayahuasca, accompanied by musics that guides the trance (also explained by the post linked in the first line), sang by ourselves during the work, and well, it is really something that changes your life, wherever you believe in it or not, wherever you are religious or not. It is something so impossible to explain that when I say it is too impossible to explain, I am already corrupting the original idea behind it all.

( http://www.robinskey.com/ayahuasca-and-don-pablo-amaringos-paintings/ )

 It is something out of this world, in my first ritual, it was a hard work, it was “horrible” for me, I suffered, but after that I saw it was really wonderful, as I learned a lot with myself. The next rituals I just blacked out and had lots and lots of endless visions that look like those paintings of ayahuasca you find on the internet, and after a while, I was able to control my trances and work as I decide to.

 Sadly, we only have it in south america (while some people in the US are trying to bring it to them as well), but ayahuasca isn’t the only natural product that induces trance, for example the “priests” of Shiva used cannabis to disconnect themselves from the material world, and mexicans have peyote. By the way, using “drugs” isn’t the only way to find God, you can do it through meditation. But I assure you, it isn’t the same.  Wherever you have the opportunity to experience ayahuasca, do it.

What is religion and that isn’t. Part III, final.

 I learned what really is a religion. In my framing, religion is used by humanity since it’s birth to connect our physical understanding of the world with some kind of metaphysical understanding of the world. And humans have been using this human tool since forever, translated into trances, incorporations, hallucinations, what I call religious experience.

 It is really a religion something that induces a religious experience, be it through meditation, intake of external substances, random trances, incorporations or praying-induced trances. These experiences are what connect us with our gods, our creator, nature, etc. But for some reason, there are some “religions” that have no connection with higher consciencess, or even neglect these activities. “Religions” that have no conscience expansion/alteration are not religions, these are philosophies at best. Because religions are made to connect our world (physical) with other worlds (metaphysical), and if your religion mantain itself only in the physical world, it isn’t a religion.

 Inspired by a curious anon, I though about how to understand yourself without a religion, for it isn’t easy to feel welcome in all religions (mostly because christianity destroyed options besides theirs). Well, many natives used plants to help expanding their mind so they could see “the bigger picture”, these are called ervas de poder (power herbs), but many are used for other goals, like getting high. I totally recomend trying drugs to open your mind to understand yourself and the world around you. But of course, don’t be too harsh! Drugs can kill you, and if you want to “open your mind” you should try to clean your arounds of bad energy so you won’t be interrupted (see Part II) by other energies, and of course, don’t exaggerate! Don’t get yourself in danger. Try to search for native religions in your city, these are the best.
