Cage

This cartoon is supposed to represent religion or Christianity.  Religion definitely had that affect on me. My deconversion brought me freedom from false guilt and shame. Even the endless patrolling of one's own thoughts for "evil" or "thinking off God's holy reservation" got old. 

One could translate this even to the ACON world, when we were in the fog we were in a cage we refused to or could not see.  I think about that issue how so many in this world are "programming for self-imposed cages". Many live their entire lives never getting the saw out or dare thinking of escaping.

The fear of eternal torture for many keeps the bars locked down tight in the religion world, and the fear of being alone or "having no family keeps the bars locked down tight in the ACON world until one escapes. I know what's it's like to be standing on the threshold of the door, like the bird so trained for the birdcage, it is scared to fly out.

In this world, there's a lot of mind control, and the best mind control is when they get you to form your own bars and keep them locked down for them. Self-policing at it's best.  Getting free will change your life.
