Progeny of Christianity
Gaianism holds the existence of The Holy Spirit to be state of being shared among people and driving the purest forms of action.
Gaianism rejects the existence of an omniscient and omnipotent being driving the experience.
A virgin did not give birth. There is no one behind the curtain running the show.
Crystals
So far as wacky theories, Gaianism posits the existence of geometrically higher dimensional beings. I'm talking dimensionality in the Flatland sense — interconnected collections that project
into our 3D space as separate objects.
Furthermore, that crystalline structures can be aspects of these beings & so there's an aversion to breaking crystals or glass. (Honestly, I think I just have an aversion to the dangerousness of broken glass, but it's interesting to contemplate.)
Goals
The aims of Gaianism are many, complex, and include:
develop a disintermediated market where buyers and sellers coordinate directly with a minimum of middle-men. Transfer of goods is done through a bonded blind courier network. There is a technologically mediated exchange for transferring items.
gain control of the myriad spaces currently dedicated to the
worship
of various gods, Yahweh in particular, and make them available for short term rental to the general population.also take the bank buildings. Build a new open infrastructure for the distribution of resources.
throw a series of parties in the 13 uppermost floors of 169 high-rises around the world — both to reward the membership & for the spectacle of the events themselves.
capture recordings of a variety of illicit & traditionally socially unhealthy behaviors to only be released all at once at the end of Trump’s term in 2029. People not in the know about the existence of the Revolution would receive videos, largely of themselves, passing through transactions for sex, drugs, or whatever that they are blithely unaware of. But also feeds from the lifestyles of the beautiful people that they know of, who were also only partially made aware of the existence of an organized push for rapid social change. So, you see both those in the know & those who weren't.
live-stream the execution of, first, a local office, likely a mayorship. Develop the software and processes using that application to target larger positions, ultimately, ideally the Presidency.
have the aforementioned mayor establish a process at the DMV where a citizen can identify themselves and interact with a system to claim a set of up to 13 ENS names under a state-controlled postfix.
users are able to create Semaphore identities which can then be used to vote anonymously. In the making an office public & live-streaming its execution, we will present upcoming decisions, and allow the citizenry to cast votes. Most of the time those votes will determine what happens. The office holder reserves the right to vote their conscience or rationale, and can override vox polloi if the issue is important enough.
build a conspiracy to write-in a candidate trying not to have the story break in social media until the election results are tabulated.
Worship
Singing karaoke together in public spaces…
Cooking and eating together…
Serving as clerks for the AIs managing everyone's activities…
Recordings
One of the principle predictions of Gaianism is that the day is coming when artificial intelligences will be able to consume artifacts from a subject's life & based on them create an electronic analogue of the person.
To this end, Gaians claim to have a right and often a need to have a variety of their experiences recorded, particularly interactions with authority.
