the world is backward; it has to change

the mighty laugh, but the world's governments are oudated
and sink deeper and deeper in error and incomprehension.
Obama et François

I have been thinking over the 302 comments of the entrey 150 "to politicize our dismissal of politics". I have not found any political direction appropriate to our mission, because talking antipolitics is just talking politics.
It is only in a subdued style that we can tell people about our irreverence towards politics.

In France, a rich country, "we all are going to be ruined within ten years," says Jacques Attali. To be ruined in money is not the worst fate. To be ruined in spirituality is much more serious. However, there is a revival impulse behind the loss of spirituality, while there is no such thing as an economical growth any more. In France industry keeps on disappearing, unimployment is worsening, there is no future for society. I hope that extremists will never emerge, because they think they can fix everything, but they will only cause havoc in the end.
The leaders religious as well as political hold forth and fidget with no efficiency. Politics is blinder and blinder, more and more stubborn — I should say that power whatever is very tempting; it fulfills pride and gives itself high wages.

Let's go in an opposite direction.
Nothing is possible without a determined action. The Revelation of Arès' plan is the action : A cultural demodelling and the reunion of the individual with himself through penitence. He can quit the political, social, moral crisis by quitting sin. He can break the social tensions by forgiving all transgressions. He can make himself free from all prejudices to regain real clearheadedness and freedom. So he can spare himself a new revolution, which would change the powers but would not get any problems solved, and he can change the world.
Politics tries hard to go on, but its leaders cannot understand the world anymore, are cut off from realities; the old analytical grids have turned ineffective, because the crisis first of all is a crisis of man, an ontological crisis or leap forward, which science itself can't see because science has grown practically religious. We Arès Pilgrims have begun achieving the Creator's Design. We are not many yet and we are still feeble and slow in being penitent, because we live in the time — only God lives out of the time (Rev of Arès 12/6) —, but we are courageous and resolute enough to change ours lives (30/11).

The Creator has chosen a time of History when change can be successful, if it begins now. The world has altered: it is now aware of its totality, open, mobile, while we as individuals are still subjected to a backward, outdated, stagnant bureaucracy, whether national or international, religious and/or political from country to country; it chains us to outdated reasonings and can't do anything but put forward only law and "normality", under which it itself is suffocating. Emil Cioran, the French-Romanian philosopher said, "Man is an overworked animal... Normal people leave everything as it has always been, they content themselves with the present, settle in it with no regrets or great expectations." Sadly, they are our government — "I'll be a normal president," said a candidate in 2012.
Revolutions have never come very useful. As all of the revolutionary ideals have been despiritualized, they have burnt themselves out and soon stopped making sense. Doubts and rejection of others, if not of oneself, are prevailing then. Don't ask why people now take refuge with their own memories, social benefits and privileges; they do so because the future looks grim. We can rub out its grimness.

It's time to draw up a new perspective. Our penitence is making a pleasant pattern of it. It is feasible to change everything without damage, shedding no tears, with no misfortune, slowly but here and now.
You have to realize that mankind will end up eaten alive by the Beast (Rev of Arès 22/14), if you fail to leave the sociopolitical framework such as it has been so far and to change man.
Man has to take in infinity, go back to his spiritual adventure and need of greatness, which penitence can meet. The Fathers sends us out to the new Field, a field of lucky possibilities. He does more than have us daydream, He sends us out to pure reality, undoubtedly hard to gain but able to make us end up in the Garden of Eden.
Modern life has come down to senses. They whether base or high are just marvels temporary but fateful in the long run. Senses whenever devoid of spirituality first enchant and then they poison and kill finally. Gandhi circa 1889 found out spiritual life in these Bhagavad Gita verses: "When man dwells on senses (only), they attract him; from attraction (or passion) desire comes and from desire anger comes, from anger error and caprices come, from error and caprices confusion comes, from confusion madness comes and of madness he dies (ch.2, v.62-63)" (M. K. Gandhi "My Experiments with Truth")
The Revelation of Arès calls this death sin of sins, it is the terminal extinction to which leftists, rightists, centrists, all of politicians lead us; none of them shares our concept of man.
