The Revolutionary Discourse of Virtue

The mammon worshippers don't prepare their own food. They rely on decent human beings to do this for them. And the moment the decent human beings of the world begin withdrawing our sanction for mammon worship, stop serving the mammon worshippers and begin reserving ourselves for honest service to virtuous men and women who genuinely need and deserve our help, the mammon worshippers will be brought to their knees. Their empire of greed can't function without the honest hardworking men and women who support it. As soon as we withdraw that support their evil empire will collapse, and the reign of virtue can finally begin.

In the first century decent human beings had to conceal attempts to overthrow the regime of mammon behind obfuscatory language. Today the mammon worshippers have made the foolish mistake of granting us freedom of speech, and it will be their downfall. We can talk openly about defying and overthrowing their regime of greed and extricating all the corrupt ideologies that entice us to serve their evil regime from our minds and hearts.

The mammon worshippers are frightened of genuine, self-confident morality. They are frightened of any form of religion other than the carefully tamed, vetted, desiccated, enervated and enfeebled forms they have creating by pouring money into the coffers of organized churches. These vipers know perfectly well it's unconscionable to feed them their feasts and build them their mansions while the poor starve and freeze in the cold. And they are terrified that the decent human beings of the world will wake up and see that the mammon worshippers contribute nothing to this world. The peddlers of greed are terrified the decent human beings of the world will begin helping one another, and leave the mammon worshippers to the fate of lonely desolate starvation they are accustomed to inflict on others.

The mammon worshippers laugh at all discourse about virtue, and make snide, cynical, contemptuous remarks about all forms of speech other than the language of mammon. But deep down they are afraid. They know that as soon as we begin speaking the language of virtue, the empire they have built on the language of greed will collapse into dust and ashes, and they will be left with nothing.

The virtuous men and women of the world don't need the mammon worshippers. This is the dirty secret their cynicism tries to conceal. This is the key to our chains, the key they try to keep us from finding. Their cynicism attempts to undermine and defile the uncompromised language of virtue that would allow us to overthrow their reign of greed.

The so-called skills of mammon worshippers are merely ways of manipulating and subjugating the decent people of the world. All we have to do is ignore them. Let the vipers starve. Let them be reduced to the pauperism they have tried to inflict on us.

We talk a lot about the pollution of our rivers and streams. But let's not forget about the pollution of our minds and hearts. The most toxic byproduct of the mammon worshipping regime isn't polychlorinated biphenyls or radioactive waste. It is cynicism. The most potent weapon of the mammon worshipping regime isn't bombs and guns. It is cynicism. The revolution of virtue begins as soon as we learn to be immune from cynicism, to defuse its power over us.

When we become revolutionaries of virtue, we stop serving the empire of greed. We wake up from our delusion. We overcome our corruption. We find love in our hearts. We find love in the hearts of others. We help those who genuinely need and deserve our help. We begin loving one another, caring for one another, and serving one another with hearts and minds full of love.
