A KENEZIAN PROLOGUE FOR NATURAL SCIENTISITS
WORLDWIDE:
· Modern
theosophy is generally understood to mean “divine wisdom”. Theosophical writers
hold that there is a deeper spiritual reality and that direct contact with that
reality can be established through intuition,meditation, revelation, or some other
state transcending normal human consciousness.
· Modern
theosophy displays a characteristic preference for monism (see pluralism and monism)-the view that
reality is constituted of one principle or substance, such as mindor spirit.
· Modern
theosophists recognize the basic distinctions between the phenomenal world and
a higher spiritual reality and between the human and the divine, which suggestsdualism,
· Monism
enunciates an integration of all peoples to form a
nucleus of the universal brotherhood of humanity, without distinction of race,
creed, sex, caste, or colour; to encourage the study of comparative religion,
philosophy, and science; and to investigate unexplained laws of Nature and the
powers latent in human beings.
· Most
theosophists also affirm an overarching, all-encompassing unity that subsumes
all differentiation; hence they all posit this eternal humane motto;
ONEALMIGHTY CREATOR, ONE CREATED UNIVERSE and therefore ONE HUMANFAMILY.

THESE ARE
THE FOUNDATION PILLARS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL PRACTICE OF INTEGRATIONAL SPIRITAN
MOVEMENT WHICH WERE DICTATED TO A HUMBLE SECRETARY; DR JIDEOFO KENECHUKWU
DANMBAEZUE AS A GUIDE FOR THE PRACTICE OF SPIRITUAL FELLOWSHIP FOR ALL NATURAL
SCIENTISTS POISED TO ENTHRONE A LASTING WORLD PEACE IN OUR DIGITALISED GLOBAL
VILLAGE WERE SCRIBBLED PIECEMEAL OVER A TWENTY-FIVE YEAR PERIOD! IT WAS &
IS THE DIVINE INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT OF THE ALMIGHTY CREATOR OF THE
ENTIRE UNIVERSE. IT LASTED FROM 11/03/1989 AND ENDED ON 11/03/2014 @ 01:11:39
HRS GMT
· From 1963 when the earthly animator was in
his year two in secondary school till 2003 when he began his crusade to
sanitise Christendom marked the THEORY epoch of the divine revelations he
received from above that demarcates temporal development of ISM.
· From 11th March 2004 to now; March
11th 2014 delineates the development of the divinely revealed
details of the eternal PRACTICE of the international crusade to enthrone a
global crusade to usher in a lasting global fellowship for a global peace in
our digitalised global village.
· From 11th March 2014, be it known
that as there were no recorded rituals when the Almighty Creator engineered the
Entire Universe nor were there any informing us of any liturgical rites when
Adam arrived on Planet Earth, so shall there be NO MAN-MADE RITUALS at the
birth or the death of all genuine and wise progeny of that Adam.
THE DIVINE OVERVIEW OR MISSION STATEMENT
1. All
the fables, legends, doctrines and dogmas of every shade had all along been
used by reprobate demagogues to hoodwink mankind into providing a select few
with easy lifestyle at the expense of the teeming population of men and women
that had been brainwashed and programmed to fear death and the UNKNOWN by
idolatrous rituals.
2.
Refresh the minds of all new converts to this integrational fellowship
of true and wise children of the Almighty Creator of the origin of religion
revealed to our earthly Chief Servant a.k.a. Animator International thus;
"Religion
was/is a superstitious search by humanity for its origin, existence, meaning
and relevance before the scientific era. The search was led by acclaimed sages
among the elders of a community who defined its theories and practices. It is
later ratified and recommended for legislation and implementation by state
apparatus by convincing stratagem or coercion by politico-religious leaders.
Thereafter, it is fine tuned and administered by ordained priests and
priestesses who hand it down along ancestral lineages from one generation of
lukewarm adherents, fanatics and mystics to another. Gradually, strong
personalities emerge claiming divine appointment and so pull strong followers
who idolise them as role models with supernatural powers. This obsession
confirms them as beacons of adulation and finally leads to clannish
hero-worship or full scale idolatry.
Therefore, my studied summation stands until it is disproved, I
stoically assert that Religion, which is superstition sanctioned by the state,
is actually an addiction to man-made doctrines and dogmas invented, patented
and copyrighted by a few demagogues.
· It enslaves the mind more than
psychoactive drugs,
· Benumbs human creativity and resourcefulness
thereby
· Restricting the development of the
human potential and capital.
It is
the main cause of poverty of the mind and underdevelopment of third world
countries as its side-effects are indolence, redundancy, laziness and
dependence on finished products and services. In the final analysis, it is the
predisposing factor to lack of initiative, debilitating ignorance, fetish
belief-systems, abject poverty and perennial ill-health. Perhaps its only advantage is that it makes
the polity docile and amenable to the whims and caprices of their oppressive
leaders. Often, it hoodwinks its adherents into believing that ‘The God' or ‘the
gods' they worship speak to them through the voices of their egocentric clerics
who therefore can conveniently exploit them to satisfy their demonic desires of
sensual pleasure and inordinate ambitions of amassing wealth. Their wanton
indulgence in gluttony, wine and women is seen in every action and definitely
this is the foolproof evidence of their demonic genealogy. To rescue humanity
from the demonic stranglehold of idolatry that now predominates worldwide, you
are invited to reason along with us and see that we provide an everlasting cure
for sensual lust for food, wine, sex, wealth and power that are the trademarks
of a society heading for damnation! Are you going to sit on the fence and wait
for another failed experiment in messiahship that was riddled with myopic and
ethnocentric bias? Who knows the Creator well enough to declare that he has ‘a
chosen people'? Or, that he had only one son? If mere mortals like responsible
human fathers in every community worldwide can have seven sons or more from one
fertile woman, who limited the Almighty Creator and eternal Father of us all to
only one son? Who is the father of all the other men; ancient and modern, who
had been sent earlier on?
THE
EVIDENCE IS SO CLEAR TO EVERY NATURAL SCIENTIST OR THE EDUCATED RATIONAL HUMAN
THUS, WITNESS;
Culture
is the summation of ethnocentric survival strategies that each sub-unit of humanity
had developed over the centuries, institutionalized and passed on to their
descendants. It is only the sons and daughters of the Almighty Creator have
ignored their ONE CULTURE; obedience to all the natural laws as ONE WORLD
RELIGION. That is what we desperately need today just as we use cellular phones
and the Internet without killing anyone. Respect for and obedience to all the
laws of nature is the key for a peaceful world with beautiful people living,
loving and sharing the Creator's benefits as equal heirs to his blissful global
world that we now share amicably thanks to scientists who have uncovered his
designs for our mutual existence. LET US LIVE IN PEACE!

THE UNITED NATIONS CONFERENCE ON RACISM
Held at
Durban, South Africa
23rd August - 2ndSeptember
2001.
Abstract
This
guest paper emphasizes the origins and development of prejudice,
discrimination, ethnocentrism, stereotypy and religious bigotry as the seeds
that germinate into racism or political radicalism, dominant and minority
ethnic groups that culminate in stressful relations, violence and wars.
A cross-cultural harmonization of
child-rearing practices is the author's therapeutic prescription if youths must
be re-oriented towards the universal brotherhood of mankind. We have the same basic anatomy and
physiology; we share the same air, water, food and rest periods. Blood groupings, emotions, motivations, and
libido allow for similar sex attractions, pregnancies and births. So, where do these ethnic superiority and
inferiority complexes come from?
The "Kenezian Creed" and "The Letter to Educationists all
over the world", epitomise the ideals that this Existential Therapeutic
Programme enunciates. The panacea for
racism is a systematic re-education, religious liberalism and socio-political
equality, which should form the foundations of cross-cultural harmonisation of
youth counselling and personality development initiatives.
Concise
C. V.
Dr. J. K. Danmbaezue is a fifty-three year old
privately employed psychotherapist and psychometrician with an outfit named
KENEZ HEALTH KLINIK, where he counsels young adults about to wed, administering
psychological tests and utilizing them objectively to re-direct incompatible
couples.
He also has an NGO-christened HAPPY FAMILY
NETWORK INTERNATIONAL, which aims at the globalization of those principles
neatly encapsulated in ‘The Kenezian Creed' and ‘Dr. Kenez Letter to All
Educationists'.
He is happily married and has three kids. He holds a Doctor of Science degree in
Psychometrics, and the prestigious Fellowship of the African Collegeof Research
Scientists. He is an Existentialist to the core!
INTRODUCTION:
Philosophy
demands the delimitation of concepts, terms or nomenclatures for clarity of
discussions, analyses, conclusions and recommendations. The following are
relevant in our case:
Prejudice is "a system of
negative conceptions, feelings and action-orientations regarding the members of
a particular group"; whereas"Discrimination" refers to
"overt action in which members of a group are accorded unfavourable
treatment on the basis of their religious, ethnic or racial membership"
Zanden, (1972).
Ethnocentrism is "an exaggerated
tendency to think the characteristics of one's own group or race superior to
those of other groups or races" whereas "stereotypy"
means "a pathological symptom of mental or nervous disorder showing itself
in continuous repetition of seemingly senseless words and syllables, or of
certain posture's and actions". Drever (1972).
Religious
bigotry refers
to "an obsessive belief and practice system whereby a person or group of
people has strong and unreasonable opinion and will not listen to or accept any
contrary views or religious opinions of anyone who disagrees". Hornby
(1976).
Racism
or Racialism refers
to "any set of beliefs that organic genetically transmitted differences
(whether real or imagined) between human groups are intrinsically associated
with the presence or absence of certain socially relevant abilities or
characteristics, hence that such differences are a legitimate basis of
invidious distinctions between groups socially defined as races" Berghe
(1967).
Ethnic
Group is a parallel term for race "which is often socially defined on the
basis of cultural characteristics superimposed on perceived physical traits
defined by the group and/or is defined by other groups as different.... by
virtue of innate... inherited on genetically induced behavioural
patterns". A. H. Coleman-cited in -
Krauss (1976) and this naturally leads us to Dominant and Minority groups -
which are the remote and immediate causes of violence, terrorism and wars.
A
Dominant Group is
"one within a national state whose distinctive culture and/or physiognomy
is established as superior in the society and which treats
differentially/unequally other groups in the society with other cultures or physiognomy
"Marden and Meyer (1968), and correspondingly;
A
Minority Group is a
"culturally or physically distinctive and self-conscious social aggregate,
with hereditary membership and a high degree of endogamy, which is subject to
political, economic or social discrimination by a dominant segment of an
environing political society" Williams (1964).
Analytically therefore, the
recurrent decimal in all these definitions is that racists are misguided,
self-opinionated and neurotic people who need ego trips or massage to suppress
their feelings of inadequacy, otherwise termed INFERIORITY COMPLEX.
Ethnology
and Ethnography do not support apartheid, religious bigotry or racism. For want of space and time, there are two
traditions in ethnic relations and socio-anthropological studies, which this
existential author subscribes to (i) the psychosocial orientation, which is
phenomenological, and (ii) the socio-cultural orientation, which is
existential. Both form the contrasting
research perspectives that most scholars patronize. However they should complement each other.
Individuals are born "tabula raza" - a clean slate! It is parents and
relevant others that write on and crowd this slate with parochial
traditions! No child hates another
child! Hatred is a learned
behaviour! So many films and dramas
portray this. Individual prejudice comes
mainly from the internalization of the prejudicial norms of one's society. A case in point is the historical origin of
Hitler's hatred for the Jews. A mistaken
identity and maltreatment in his primary school days when he freely associated
with Jewish children --was the remote cause of anti-Semitism which he
internationalized, followed by ‘German blood superiority' he championed which
eventually led to the two world wars he engineered!
The
adult populations manufactured Black-white relations in U.S.A., Indians,
Mexicans and Puerto Ricans segregationist policies, not teenagers nor
adolescents! South Africa's multiracial society and apartheid system have been
studied as the ultimate in structured inequality while Hawaii and Brazilas
multiracial societies with a low degree of racism. Why can't we replicate the latter form of
ethnic relations in all countries of the world?
The choice is ours!
YOUTH
DEVELOPMENT:
It is interesting to note what
anthropologists, psychiatrists, sociologists and psychologists have concluded
after varying researches into various aspects of child-rearing practices all
over the world. Collumb and Valatin (1970), French psychiatrists, concluded
thus:
"The social changes attendant on
modernization cause far reaching disturbances in traditional family
organization and bring about alterations in the relationship of the child to
the family group. Love and authority are
no longer provided for the child by the communal group of the whole family but
(only) by the biological parents.... Are the parents able to take on these
loving and disciplinary roles alone? Cut
off from their extended family group on all sides, can they overcome their own
problems and fears and make themselves ready to fulfill their new
functions? How does the child experience
these changes? Is it already possible to
set out their pathological consequences?
It is difficult to say; however, one may state that the number of maladjusted
children, the number of adolescents with problems is growing considerably,
especially in towns. The present
generation will be followed by another which will have the same incidence of
schizophrenia as in West" p. 127
This
international Conference in South Africa in 2001 should address those
fundamental questions. What this author
offers is only a palliative/prophylactic recommendation. Before that however - we need to recall what
Erikson (1972) and Kohlberg (1969) posited as the critical stages of moral
development in teenagers and adolescents.
These will help us formulate the cross-cultural harmonization this paper
proposes. In his "EIGHT AGES OF
MAN," Chap. 7 pp. 239-266; Erikson established eight sensitive
developmental patterns that parents, teachers and relevant others must take
advantage of, if children must grow up into mature, respectful and responsible
citizens of the world. Correspondingly,
in his "DEVELOPMENT OF MORAL CHARACTER AND MORAL IDEOLOGY" - a
cognitive developmental approach - LawrenceKohlberg of Harvard University
posted six moral stages that teenagers pass through - namely: pre-moral, instrumental-hedonistic, role
taking, law-and-order, autonomous-principle, and finally the universal-ethical-principle.
Time
and space may not allow a detailed discussion of these stages. However, let it be known also that: Bandura
& Walters, (1963) have their SOCIAL LEARNING AND PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENTAL
APPROACH, while Goshin, (1969) has relevant topics in their HANDBOOK OF
SOCIALIZATION THEORY AND RESEARCH; while Hoffman Martin, has his "Moral
Development Theory" cited in Paul. H. Mussen (Ed.)CARMICHAEL'S MANUAL OF
CHILD PSYCHOLOGY (3rd ed.)
All point to this one fact: That what we give
or fail to give growing children, teenagers or adolescents form the base of all
racial discriminations, hatred, fear and apartheid tendencies. There are no known genetic traits, or
inherited behavioural patterns that warrant racial discrimination. The adult population manufactured, patented
and marketed RACISM. Therefore, it
remains their duty and urgent responsibility to dismantle and obliterate the
consequences of their mischievous and xenophobic creations; apartheid,
religious bigotry, anti-Semitism, Zionism and all other forms of racial
inequalities that they breed!
The creator of the Universe did not input any
racial inequalities in his created universe and beings. Nor did Charles Darwin's theory of evolution,
even mention any scientific basis for racism.
Politicians, warmongers, and demonic rulers who traded in human beings
and monetary values invented racism based on their inferiority complexes,
xenophobic reactions and vainglorious exploits.
For how long must we all suffer for their mischief? The onerous duty of liberated minds, as
exemplified by the participants at this United Nation's Conference will come
into sharper focus as we deliberate on the therapeutic measures proposed by
this paper.
CROSS-CULTURAL
HARMONISATION
In the light of the foregone
scientific references, this psychotherapist has developed two basic
inter-ethnic and inter-racial compositions - spanning a period of thirty years
and has labelled them "THE KENEZIAN CREED" and "THE LETTER TO
TEACHERS OF HIS CHILDREN". The pair
is crucial re-orientation ploys to revolutionize the religious and educational
climates of the world and subsequently ameliorate or slow down the incidence
of/or the increase in racial tensions, religious fanaticism and ethnic
cleansing.
"CROSS-CULTURAL" here is
used as an adjective meaning "involving, or containing ideas or elements
from two or more different cultures, while "HARMONIZE" to make
something harmonious e.g. coloursthat harmonize well (i.e. together produce a
pleasing effect) or the cottages harmonize well with the landscape. In music "harmonization" means to
play or sing notes that accompany the main tune and produce harmony with the
lead singer". Hornby (1995) pp 279 & 544
From the above the therapeutic regimen for
racialism and other ethnic stressful relationships lies in the Homo sapiens
sapiens accepting that each culture must harmonize with the lead race; that is,
the HUMAN RACE. If musicians can
harmonize with the lead singer why are whites, blacks and yellows unable to
harmonize? Its is due to ignorance,
petty jealousy, morbid fear of strangers and unbridled self-pride. An attempt must be made to
de-emphasize religion which is the greatest harbinger of fanatical zeal to
discriminate against and dominate others. MISINFORMATION or DISINFORMATION -
also known as propaganda that completes the racial tones dictated by maniacal
leaders, politicians and governments must be halted and reversed
systematically.
The Kenezian Creed sifts the L.C.M
and H.C.F. of the human race. Then it
dresses them in philosophic, ethical and scientific language whichharmonises
with the main language of nature - WE ARE HUMAN BEINGS, WITH SAME CREATOR, SAME
BLOOD AND PLASMA, SIMILAR ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY and WE INTER-MARRY AND PRODUCE
SAME SPECIES. Of what value are our
World Cups, Olympics and Arts Festivals, if at the end of the day we still
discriminate and derogate others based simply on the colour of their skin, or
eyes and or the texture of their hairs?
Does emotion and motivation vary among the races of mankind? No, is the answer! Any man or woman can learn the language of
the ethnic groups they are born into and mingle with, hence, English, French,
Swahili, German and some other languages have gained international appeal and
usage. In the like manner, lets amplify
those areas of cognition, memory and recall that unify the races rather than
propagate those minor differences that separate and antagonise us.
In
education, any child irrespective of skin colour, genetic endowment and child
rearing practices can become a genius in nuclear physics, computer science,
acrobatics and, music. There has never been, nor will there ever be a
scientific proof of the superiority of one race to another. These xenophobic rationalizations are ego defense
mechanisms that emanate from depraved and demented minds and must not be
allowed to drag us to another world war.
A word is enough for the wise.
The systematic incorporation of the tenets of the following compositions
into primary school/educational curricula will eradicate racism worldwide:
THE
KENEZIAN CREED
Nuggets of Wisdom for the Unification of all
Belief Systems.
1. I am of age; therefore, I affirm that I
exist! I am "ME", you are
"YOU" and we are "US". I affirm that I am a Created Being
living in the present, hoping to come to an end as other creatures I have
observed, do come to a definitive end.
2. I therefore know that all finite
creatures obey some natural laws that govern existence. I affirm that these laws are also eternal and
like every other law, must have a Giver.
I deduce therefore that there are commensurate sanctions for any
deliberate violation of these laws.
3. When I observe the heavens and
landscapes, hills and valleys, rivers and oceans, sunrise and sunset, equinoxes
and eclipses, I am certain that this Eternal Law-giver is Great and Powerful in
all respects and possesses Superhuman Intelligence, Power and Control over all
of us?
4. When I inspect living and non-living
beings, their beauty and variety, their numbers and their sizes, especially
their modes of survival in varying environments, and particularly their ability
to reproduce their kinds, I confess that this Eternal Law-giver must be
Beautiful, Loving and All-Creative.
5. I respect "IT" in all
"ITS" creations while admiring in particular those that move
about. For I do realise that I share the
traits they have; we all have the same basic structures, we survive by
performing similar functions, have similar feelings and produce comparable
results. I cannot but bow in reverence and worship this Almighty Being, the
Eternal Law-Giver who sustains everything on this planet.
6. This Almighty Being set all things in
motion. "IT" directs their courses and life spans, keeps them in
space and time, now and always. And
because there are no accidents in nature when "IT'S" laws are
strictly adhered to, I attest to the fact that "IT" is the greatest
GOOD; All-knowing, All-caring and Ever Present Being.
7. To "IT" be all my respect,
obedience and loyalty, as I extend my hands of love and brotherhood to all
Human Beings, co-heirs and offspring of this Almighty Creator and Father of
all. Therefore, my creed concisely is this:
(a) THE UNIVERSE IS MY COUNTRY AND INHERITANCE, (b) ALL MANKIND, MY
BLOOD RELATIVES AND EQUALS, (c) SEEKING THE TRUTH, LIVING THE TRUTH AND DOING
GOOD AT LL TIMES - MY RELIGION.

DR
KENEZ DANMBAEZUE'S PLEAS TO TEACHERS OF HIS CHILDREN
*(Each
paragraph/plea can be used as the theme of Morning Assembly Talks)
Dear Teacher,
Your job is an onerous one, commendable by
both God and man,
My child will look up to you as a role model,
a mirror to view the world;
You will have to father him for 5 hours a day,
5 days a week and 35 weeks per year,
That's long enough to make or mar his future,
his classmates and that of this country.
1.Teach
him to look around and admire the beauty in nature, himself inclusive,
Let him
know that for every child he sees, there are two parents - a father and a
mother;
So for
the birds he sees, trees, animals, hills, rivers, sun, daylight, night and
moonlight,
There
is but One Almighty Father, who created and takes care of us all on a daily
basis.
2.Teach
him to trust and obey The Almighty Creator with worship in humility,
And to
love every other being, as we all are sons and daughters of the same Creator;
Let him
realise that when it rains, it's for every one: plants, animals and man,
The
Creator's kindness and benevolence does not choose those to hate or love.
3.Teach
him that for every lie he tells, he will tell ten more lies to cover it up,
And for
ten lies, he needs one hundred more lies - that is foolishness;
So let
him learn that truth is golden, more precious than wealth and riches,
Knowledge,
wisdom and fame are the rewards earned by truthful people.
4.In
school, let him love and respect his classmates and fight to protect the weaker
ones,
Allow
him to taste bitter and sweet things; and to combine laughter and suffering;
That
way you will have prepared him to deal with wicked and honest human beings,
Thereby
teaching him to differentiate good from evil and to do good all his life.
5.Teach
him that lying, cheating and stealing produce criminals and rogues,
Teach
him that a kobo earned is better than a hundred won by lottery;
It's
better to go hungry than enjoy a meal prepared with stolen money,
Or eat
crumbs of bread among finest friends than a whole loaf among dishonest men.
6.Teach
him that a passage studied, understood and memorised,
Is far
better than one simply crammed and repeated like a parrot;
The
former leads to ingenuity, resourcefulness and creativity,
The
latter to imitative behaviour, and lack of self-confidence;
Teach
him that it's more honourable to fail an examination,
Than to
copy, cheat or use "expo" methods to pass any examination.
7.Finally
teach him that it is better to be neither too poor nor too rich,
Than to
become wealthy by stealing, deceit and cutting corners;
The
former leads to contentment, peace of mind and long life,
The
latter to arrogance, greed, restlessness and sudden death;
Explain
to him what "Honesty is the best policy" really means,
And the
practical implications of the saying: "More haste, less speed".
Postscript:
You'll have to believe and practise these yourself,
Before you can teach them to my son and his
mates;
But be assured that if you succeed in this
assignment,
You will be a hero and the father of heroes
and heroines;
And that's what our dear country needs most.
May God guide your endeavours!

RESUME,
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The etiological origin of racism is
ethnocentric megalomania best exemplified by Adolf Hitler's xenophobic
ideas. "Xenophobia" as defined
by Drever (1972) is "a morbid fear
of strangers", and Hornby (1995) concerns by defining it as "an intense
dislike or fear of strangers or people from other countries"...
"excessive patriotism can lead to xenophobia" - he concluded p. 1385.
"Racism or racialism" van
den Berghe (1967) affirms, "are beliefs (not facts) that organic
genetically transmitted differences (real or imagined) exist between social
groups" which he concluded were false.
There has never been any existential or scientific proof that a
Caucasian is superior to Negroid or Mongoloid specie of the human race. Racism is puerile and futile!
Professor M. Nesturkh, a Russian
anthropologist has a 133-page hardbound book, with over 100 black and white and
coloured pictures - entitled THE RACES OF MANKIND. In the preface, Professor N. N. Cheboksarov,
a Doctor of History, and a Miklukho-Maklai Prize Winner, opens up thus:
"The problem of the races of mankind is
one of the most important in anthropology, the science that studies the natural
history of man with all the variations due to age, sex, and geographical
factors. The races of mankind are, in
actual fact, geographical (or territorial) variations, historically conditioned,
of a single physical type-MAN.
"The writings of the founders of Marxism-Leninism contain many
valuable statements on such problems as the connection between the origin of
races and the natural geographical conditions of life of primitive man; the
distant ancestors of the present-day peoples, the gradual obliteration of
racial differences in the course of historical development, the racial mixtures
that make up modern nations and the absolute invalidity of racism.
"A correct conception of the races of mankind is of particularly
great political and scientific importance today, in the period of the collapse
of the colonial system and the unparalleled development of the struggle for
national liberation by the dependent and colonial peoples. The ideologists of imperialism, in their
effort to provide a basis for class, national and colonial oppression, have
advanced the false "theory" of the physical and mental inequality of
races, or the existence of "higher" and "lower" races, of
races that are capable and those that are incapable of independent, social,
economic and cultural development.
"Racism is closely bound up with reactionary nationalism and
chauvinism. The Programme of the
Communist Party of the Soviet Union, adopted by the Twenty-Second Party
Congress, lays special stress on the fact that nationalistic prejudice and the
survivals of former national discord constitute the sphere in which resistance
to social progress may be the longest, fiercest, most stubborn and most implacable. The misanthropic inventions of the racists
stand in direct contradiction to the data provided by anthropology". Pp 5
& 6
All
scientists agree with the learned Russian Professor and PrizeWinner! Moreover, Professor M. Nesturukh, himself
concludes his introduction to the book thus:
"The author realises the difficulties
attaching to the task he has undertaken and will be satisfied if his readers
obtain from his book a general idea of the concept of races and their origin
and a conviction of the unscientific nature of racism". P. 10.
It is the conclusions of this paper
that only intellectual pygmies and anthropological misfits can, and do
propagate racism in ethnic or religious relations. But for the fact that this is a scientific
paper, passages in the Torah, Bible, Koran and the Bhagavad-Gita would have
been used to substantiate the stupidity of racialism and the demonic possession
of all racists. They are all
adenescents!
Suffice it to recommend the following:
i. That all racists be subjected to a psychiatric evaluation. It is possible that they have congenital
deficiencies that warrant their schizophrenia fantasies.
ii. That participants at this conference devise means and modalities for
appealing to religious leaders of all shades, coloursand faith to repudiate
discriminatory sermons, doctrines or catechesis in their religious worship.
iii. That all film makers and drama writers expunge sentences or scenes
depicting superiority or inferiority in all their products. On the other hand they must encourage
scriptwriters to douse the embers of hatred, violence and ethnic jealousies in
their productions e.g. GUESS, WHO'S COMING TO DINNER.
iv. That
musicians review their lyrics and emulate the consortium of international stars
that gave us the famous song: WE ARE THE WORLD.
In like manner, let all intelligent people all over the world stand up
to be counted among music lovers who appreciate that orchestras and choirs need
soprano, alto, tenor and bass to harmonise the lead instrument or singer. So also should white, black and yellow races
blend or harmonize the leading HUMAN RACE.
v. All newly established families must make conscious efforts to give
their offspring a better deal or lease of life rather than feed them the same
nepotic ideas or prejudices their own parents condemned to feed on during their
growing years
vi. Re-education in all nursery, kindergarten and primary schools, must
eliminate segregation based on skin colour, class or creed. Each stanza or paragraph of the Kenezian
Letter to all Liberated Educationist can be used to conduct morning assemblies.
vii. National constitutions should incorporate sections that make it a crime
to discriminate against any citizen, guest or stranger in one's native land.
Moreover, national prizes may be awarded to those adjudged to have demonstrated
the tenets of the Kenezian Creed practically in their daily living.

Religion, which is superstition sanctioned by
the state, is actually an addiction to man-made doctrines and dogmas invented,
patented and copyrighted by a few demagogues.
• It enslaves the mind more than psychoactive drugs,
• Benumbs human creativity and resourcefulness thereby
• Restricting the development of the human potential and capital.
It is the main cause of poverty of the mind and underdevelopment of third world countries as its side-effects are indolence, redundancy, laziness and dependence of finished products and services. In the final analysis, it is the predisposing factor to lack of initiative, debilitating ignorance, fetish belief-systems, abject poverty and perennial ill-health.
Perhaps its only advantage is that it makes the polity docile and amenable to the whims and caprices of their oppressive leaders. Often, it hoodwinks its adherents into believing that ‘The God' or ‘the gods' they worship speak to them through the voices of their egocentric clerics who therefore can conveniently exploit them to satisfy their demonic desires of sensual pleasure and inordinate ambitions of amassing wealth. Their wanton indulgence in gluttony, wine and women is seen in every action and definitely this is the foolproof evidence of their demonic genealogy.
To rescue humanity from the demonic stranglehold of idolatry that now predominates worldwide, you are invited to reason along with us and see that we provide an everlasting cure for sensual lust for food, wine, sex, wealth and power that are the trademarks of society heading for damnation! Are you going to sit on the fence and wait for another failed experiment in Messiahship that was riddled with myopic and ethnocentric bias? Who knows the Creator well enough to declare that he has ‘a chosen people'? Where is the evidence that Moses actually led the so-called people out of any oppressive regime? The history books and modern encyclopaedia did not record the enslavement of the Jewish race except as ‘they were believed as revealed truths'.

The Creator has hidden so much from our intellectual faculties that to date we are still unravelling those He is allowing humanity to glimpse at through divine dreams, intuitions, inspirations and revelations to devout souls! Do you want to have supernatural knowledge mediated by spiritual faculties of seeing, feeling, sensing and caring for others? Look inwards, for the kingdom of God is inside you, not outside as many preachers tell you. No one ever got eternal bliss by keeping the commandments of men. It is given to altruistic seekers of that Divine Guidance in the affairs of mankind, which many yearn for but do not know where, when and how to find it. Search for it in this book!
The creator gave humans some of his powers and knowledge for recreating the material universe for the mutual benefits of all his created beings but today many use his gifts to perpetrate evil. Either by design or demonic manipulation, the obverse is the case; the first datum that every living thing recognises is that someone put it here and caters for its welfare. Dogs respect and fight in defence of their owners. Every pet realises that it is loved and taken care of by someone who has value for its existence. It is human who pride themselves of being rational beings that do not recognise, respect or realise that all of us have a single owner. It is absurd! Some believe there is an Almighty Creator who provides for each creature on daily basis, some assert that he has turned his back on us due to our congenital wickedness and cruel ways, while others simply deny his existence!
This is my summation of the problem; "Religion was/is a superstitious search by humanity for its origin, existence, meaning and relevance before the scientific era. The search was led by acclaimed sages among the elders of a community who defined its theories and practices. It is later ratified and recommended for legislation and implementation by state apparatus by convincing stratagem or coercion by politico-religious leaders. Thereafter, it is fine tuned and administered by ordained priests and priestesses who hand it down along ancestral lineages from one generation of lukewarm adherents, fanatics and mystics to another. Gradually, strong personalities emerge claiming divine appointment and so pull strong followers who idolise them as role models with supernatural powers. This obsession confirms them as beacons of adulation and finally leads to full scale idolatry.
INTRODUCTION TO INTEGRATIONAL SPIRITAN MOVEMENT
The Computer-Age Spiritual Fellowship for Citizens of Our Global Village
Many people are mere conformists. They are those personalities that are satisfied with ‘going through the motions'; doing what everyone else is doing to make a living and waiting for the final ‘call to glory' as they brand death! Many of us are born and live an inconsequential life; bland, uneventful and without anything particular to be remembered for after our exit from this mundane world, a temporal habitation for the soul. There are some others, whose lives and contributions to the society made a difference! They changed the ‘status quo' by either extending the frontiers of knowledge or developing their immediate communities. They improved the understanding of human nature and taught others the values of humanitarianism. These heroes and heroines touched the lives of many both inter-racially and internationally.
They added colour to the doldrums of routine existence on planet earth!
A few had tall dreams and went ahead to transform them into reality despite all odds. This group devised methods of changing the deplorable situations and the deprived circumstances of the lifestyle they met on becoming adults. Some adolescents dream of the courage to better their social status, but often take off on the wrong foot of seeking for titles, money, fame and crowning it all with indulging in romantic relationships.
Others dared to pursue the unknown, to break new grounds and blaze trails for followers to tread on. Their zeal, inquisitiveness, passion, persistence, desire, motivations and prayers were fully rewarded if they paid the prize for success; optimism, dedication and the refusal to quit. Their philosophy of life was ‘When the task gets tough, the tough get it going!', ‘Never say, never again!' or ‘All that it takes to make the impossible possible is the power to remove the ‘im' in front of the possible!'
They eventually became geniuses, inventors, explorers, leaders or discoverers! They evolved into the innovators and pioneers who helped to enlarge the frontiers of human civilisations and removed the age-old boundaries of the unknown. Joining this select group of animators or league of achievers is usually not by accident or by mere wishful thinking. Beyond desire and hard work is a divine factor that must be recognised, respected and appropriated in unveiling the unknown that the Divine Architect had hidden there for ages waiting for a brave soul to convert it from obscure dormancy to utilitarian vibrancy. This author, Dr Kenez wants to know where you belong in this universal continuum. Or, are you waiting for ‘manna from heaven'?

THE
PSYCHOPATHOLOGY OF RELIGIOUS FANATICISM
Synopsis
of Dr Kenez Danmbaezue 1980 to 1982 Doctoral Dissertation at College of
Medicine, University of Benin
A
Rudimentary Definition of Psychopathology from Merriam-Webster is the study of
psychological and behavioural dysfunction occurring in mental disorder or in
social disorganization; and a such dysfunction is then regarded as
psychopathological
Psychopathology as you will find in Wikipedia is the scientific study of mental disorders, including efforts to understand their genetic, biological, psychological, and social causes; effective classification schemes (nosology); course across all stages of development; manifestations; and treatment. The term may also refer to the manifestation of behaviors that indicate the presence of a mental disorder.
The word psychopathology has a Greek origin: 'psyche' means "soul", 'pathos' is defined as "suffering", and 'logos' is "the study of". Wholly, psychopathology is defined as the origin of mental disorders, how they develop, and the symptoms they might produce in a person.
Patients with mental disorders are normally treated by psychiatrists, or psychologists, who both specialize in mental health and diagnose and treat patients through medication or psychotherapy. These professionals systematically diagnose individuals with mental disorders using specific diagnostic criteria and symptomatology found within the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.[1]

GENESIS OF THE RESEARCH

The Ministry of Terror, The Jonestown Cult Massacre by Elissa Haney
Two
decades ago an unusual series of events led to the deaths of more than 900
people in the middle of a South American jungle. Though dubbed a "massacre,"
what transpired at Jonestown on November 18, 1978, was to some extent done
willingly, making the mass suicide all the more disturbing.
The Jonestown cult (officially named the "People's Temple") was founded in 1955 by Indianapolis preacher James Warren Jones. Jones, who had no formal theological training, based his liberal ministry on a combination of religious and socialist philosophies.
A New, Isolated Community
After relocating to California in 1965, the church continued to grow in membership and began advocating their left-wing political ideals more actively. With an I.R.S. investigation and a great deal of negative press mounting against the radical church, Jones urged his congregation to join him in a new, isolated community where they could escape American capitalism—and criticism—and practice a more communal way of life.
In 1977, Jones and many of his followers relocated to Jonestown, located on a tract of land the People's Temple had purchased and begun to develop in Guyana three years earlier.
Relatives of cult members soon grew concerned and requested that the U.S. government rescue what they believed to be brainwashed victims living in concentration camp-like conditions under Jones's power.
The Visit of Congressman Ryan
In November 1978, California Congressman Leo Ryan arrived in Guyana to survey Jonestown and interview its inhabitants. After reportedly having his life threatened by a Temple member during the first day of his visit, Ryan decided to cut his trip short and return to the U.S. with some Jonestown residents who wished to leave. As they boarded their plane, a group of Jones's guards opened fire on them, killing Ryan and four others.
Some members of Ryan's party escaped, however. Upon learning this, Jones told his followers that Ryan's murder would make it impossible for their commune to continue functioning. Rather than return to the United States, the People's Temple would preserve their church by making the ultimate sacrifice: their own lives. Jones's 912 followers were given a deadly concoction of purple Kool-Aid mixed with cyanide, sedatives, and tranquilizers. Jones apparently shot himself in the head.

*****************
A murder–suicide is an act in which an individual kills one or more other persons immediately before or at the same time as killing oneself. The combination of murder and suicide can take various forms, often linked to the first form:
• Murder linked with suicide of a mentally unstable person with a homicidal ideation;
• Murder which entails suicide, such as driving a car with one or more passenger(s) over a precipice or suicide bombing;
• Suicide after murder to escape state punishment(s);
• Suicide after murder as a form of self-punishment due to guilt;
• Suicide after (or before) murder by proxy;
• Suicide after or during murder inflicted by others;
• Murder to receive a death sentence willfully;
• Joint suicide in the form of killing the other with consent, and then killing oneself;
• Murder before suicide with the intent of preventing future pain and suffering of others including family members and oneself, such as a parent killing their children before ending their own life;
Suicide-lawful killing has three conceivable forms:
• To murder one's assailant through proportionate self-defense killing oneself in the process;
• Lawful killing to prevent an individual from causing harm to others, in so doing killing oneself;
• Lawful killing indirectly resulting in or contributing to suicide.
Many spree killings have ended in suicide, such as in many school shootings. Some cases of religiously-motivated suicides may also involve murder. All categorisation amounts to forming somewhat arbitrary distinctions where relating to intention in the case of psychosis, where the intention(s) is/are more likely than not to be irrational. Ascertaining the legal intention (mens rea) is inapplicable to cases properly categorised as insanity.
