1. Beware False Prophets

2. A long time ago, there was a great rift
in the Catholic church.

3. Up until then the "structure" was kind
of like this.

4. There was God and the heavens.

5. Then there were the special holy men
who were trained to interpret the
heavenly messages.

6. Then there were the regular, everyday
people.

7. They had to do what these chosen
holy men said, since they were the
only ones who could understand the
word of God.

8. Then they had a great upheaval.

9. Many ex-holy men decided that these
holy men were really con artists.

10. Maybe they didn't start out this way,
but they certainly abused their power.

11. For example, they would sell people
tickets into heaven.

12. The way it worked was you had some
sins, you confessed them to these holy
men, and they handed out your
punishments.

13. Of course, they saw this as an
opportunity to make some cash on the
side, and they did.

14. After a while, enough of these ex-holy
men were so disgusted, they started
their own churches.

15. "The Word of God is available to
everybody!"

16. They said.

17. No longer would people have to listen
to an "interpretation" of some holy
man who had gone through some
special training.

18. And the world hasn't been the same
ever since.

19. Just think, the idea that a normal guy
or girl, meditating on the scriptures (or
any other ancient texts) could actually
discern valuable teachings!

20. Of course, this "structure" still exists
today, in many forms.

21. Some self proclaimed "holy man"
claims he or she knows the secrets,
and only he or she knows how to
interpret them.

22. Even things that are worlds apart from
religion falls under this category.

23. Medicine, science, philosophy, art,
entertainment.

24. It seems that humans are hard wired
to fall into the "authority trap."

25. Unless the wise words come from
somebody with recognized authority,
we don't recognize them as valid.

26. This can help, saving us a lot of time.

27. But it can also hurt.

28. We may find that after years of
following a "holy man" we find he or
she's been a scam the entire time.

29. Not to mention how easy it is to abuse
such power.

30. History is filled with men and women
(mostly men) who had the power of
authority only to lead people to
horrible ends.

31. Ultimately, it's up to you.

32. To be sure, a truly wise and honest
"holy man" is a wonderful thing to
find.

33. But in the end, only you know what's
right.

34. Only you are responsible for your own
life, your own truth, and your own
path.

35. It's easy to let somebody else choose
for you.

36. Few can choose their own path. Few
can listen to their own truth.
