The Good:
Morgue’s primary purpose is questioning and ranting against
New Age beliefs and extreme Christian toxic beliefs. Though religions do not
need to be completely abolished right away, they do need to be questioned,
scrutinized, and changed to fit a more inclusive society. Souls evolve, science
evolves, the universe evolves, so too, must religions evolve with us.
Morgue is a role model for subculture/goth/BDSM
community and likely those who identify with the circus and alternative scenes.
His passion and detailed video speeches will likely encourage those who grew up
in toxic environments to forge their own path and realize what life and society
are truly about.
Morgue recognizes the importance of embracing our
light and shadow selves together, instead of only “love and light,” in New Age.
We cannot and should not love everyone
in this world if they are not willing to respect us and treat us like equal human
beings. Many have to solve their own problems first. “Love your enemies” does
not always work; there must be a balance between serving self and serving
others.
Reincarnation is seen as a process of growth and
evolution. Morgue mentions the quality of your lives being more important than
the quantity, a fact that New Age teachings often miss. Plus, he does a good
job with debunking the toxic concept of “getting what you deserve based on past
life karma.” In addition to other toxic metaphors that disempower people such
as “before birth, your soul chose all the bad things you encounter in life.”
He has a grand goal for universal education to
everyone and resources regardless of age, sex, gender, race etc. (Which will
take many generations and hard work to achieve). His analysis of the teachings
in the Egyptian Book of the Dead are also fascinating. Based on that we know
that there is one universal God force that loves us and stays with us every
step of the way. We know our souls are eternal, that our “avatar” bodies are
shed, and all of us will return to our spiritual home when we are ready.
The Bad:
Morgue has his eyes on the right direction, but goes
about it the wrong way. He has extreme disregard and opposition to religion and
modern science, seeing only the negatives. How can one be a “rationalist” and
not trust science? Science evolves over time just like us and will likely accept
the potential of us being eternal souls who can help unite humanity. And let’s
not forget positive religious themes like “Love thy neighbor,” and “Be
kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other just as God in
Christ forgave you,” Ephesians 4:32. Plus the nature of the Absolute within
everything is similar to Brahman in Hinduism and Source in New Age. Morgue has
no explanations of the “mathematical entities” he describes, which align with
the idea of beings like angels, guides, aliens, etc. (And based on many NDEs,
we know that figures like God-Source and Jesus Christ are very likely real!)
Math: How can God and
the soul be proven mathematically? Is there an equation for the soul that can
be scientifically tested with the energy of us and living things? The universal
structure of the world and the study of the natural world go hand in hand…science
and religion and philosophy are intertwined in many ways. Nothing is truly
separate in this world in the grand scheme of things.
“Death is an illusion,” “This world is an illusion,”
yes and no. The death of the soul is an illusion, but the death of the body is
very real. This world is only a different level of reality compared to the
greater reality of the spirit world. If rituals are purely symbolic,
psychological, and metaphorical, why do many Wiccans, Pagans, trance
channelers, and religious folk claim that real entities communicate to them,
allowing them to do magick and improve their lives and the lives of others? And
genuine psychics too, who help heal people and guide them on their life paths.
Evolution Question:
If we are “mathematical eternal minds” whose only purpose is to “level up” and
evolve, why do souls (as in NDEs) have Life Reviews where they see everything
good and bad they did in their lives? That is a mystical form of learning, not
just instinctual evolution on Earth. With Life Reviews, there must also be some
form of karma that goes beyond simple evolution purposes, at least for human
souls. By Morgue’s logic, evolution should be done as quickly as possible,
meaning the soul would move to the next level/incarnation right away. And if we
are just made of math, why do souls have emotions and human-like behaviors in
NDEs and psychic readings? We are more than just infinite energy.
If past life knowledge is unnecessary and hinders our
evolution, why do psychics and some children remember their past lives or
things beyond this world? That knowledge shouldn’t be available to anyone if it
hinders our evolution progress but that’s not the case.
Plus, Morgue implies that we evolve as souls in a
linear fashion, going from less to more complex organisms, “leveling up” from
plants and animals. But what if time doesn’t exist on the other side and souls
can choose a variety of realms and beings to incarnate into?
If Source/Absolute is made of us as “soul minds”, and
we caused Source to shatter, how can Source still connect with us? Did Source
create us or did we influence Source around the Big Bang? And is there proof
that the universe will keep going in a cycle forever? Where is the proof that
we have evolved an infinite number of times? And if we do evolve forever, then
there is absolutely no need to rush to the next level in the first place.
The Ugly:
Plagiarism:
Morgue plagiarizes the work of Mike Hockney, author
of the God Series. Both Hockney and Morgue have an intense narrow-minded hatred
of the Abrahamic religions, refusing to see any positive aspects of them. Yes,
the religions have caused division and fear, but at the same time, they have
kept communities together for hundreds of years and brought hope in dark times.
Hockey says things such as “No Abrahamist has ever been a thinker,” and “100%
of all forms of all followers of all forms of Abrahamism…not a single one has
ever had a logical thought cross his mind,” negatively stereotyping whole
communities of people.
Morgue and Hockney also dismiss materialism science,
claiming that those who follow religion and modern science are mindless slaves
content with believing anything authority tells them to. Doctors who use science
to save people, or naturalists who help us discover our world or countless
people who use science in their everyday lives…perhaps we should all instead
become reclusive hermits and ponder the mathematical nature of our illusionary
world like Morgue claims.
Cultish behaviors:
Aleph Skoteinos’s blog and David Gee mention violence
and harsh threats among some of Morgue’s believers. Morgue does not pay his
supporters or admins any money and limits any extra information only to members
who buy his book. (“Resources available to everyone?”) If we want to create a
new harmonious society, threatening to kill people who oppose your beliefs is
not a good place to start. Although many of his ideas provoke alternative
thinking and a questioning of our messed up society, he’s still, to many
people, a rich elitist performer.
There are times when you realize that you don’t need
a rebel or a role model to tell you to wake up…do what Morgue says…question
everything using reason and logic! Everything…my words, Morgue’s words, society’s
words, religion, everything! Embrace what works, dismiss what does not. To
contradict Nietzsche’s quote, “Man is a rope stretched between the animal
and the overman,” I say, “Man, animal, and divine are chain-links looped
together eternally.” No one has all
the answers. Remember, we are all beyond human, Hyperian or not. We are the
sentient infinite loving Source…and not just “eternal mathematical minds.”
