A new Eden

October 4th, 2024

I think it is important to understand really what the American dream is about, how it came into existence, to be able to give this dream onto the next generation.

It came with the first pilgrims who were inspired by some of these illustrious poets of Great Britain at the time.

Great Britain has this amazing tradition of telling stories of society in prose. James Joyce, Thomas More, John Keats.

A lot of the ideas that was disseminated into the British world, was made by these amazing artists/thinkers.

When the first pilgrims landed in Boston, they brought this tradition with them and started making all kinds of utopian ideas and dreams, inspired by religious thinking.

Religious thinking actually has a lot to do with politics. You can read the story of Sodom of Gomorrah, that is a religious story about two city states, Sodom and Gomorrah that are demoralized and even angels are not respected.

If you really understand the scripture, you realize, that Eden is not a place in the heavens, it is a POLITICAL construct on earth. The whole idea of religion is to point man to a society ON THE EARTH that is joyful and fulfilling. Eden refers to a city state called Eridu in Iraq.

So the “New Eden” idealism that fueled the basis of America, is really to get to that happy society.

This ideology was derailed after the second world war, where the fight against nazism became more important than building a new Eden, which, to my mind, really was a mistake.

The best way to fight a dystopian vision as the National socialist Viking ideology of National socialism is to make something that is vibrant, healthy, beautiful.

The US should really have kept to its roots in the face of nazism.

So this whole American dream process is really to RECONNECT to the ideas of the first pilgrims and keep the ideas alive and well.

A renaissance.

G-d bless the will of the first pilgrims to make heaven on earth.
