THE MATERIALIST'S
CREED
As a materialist:
1. I believe in materialism and only in materialism.
I will not allow myself to believe in anything else.
2. I do not believe in anything else unless I can
touch it, see it, hear it, smell it or taste it.
3. I will call myself a ‘skeptic’ even
though I fully realize I am cheating and lying when I do
this because a skeptic always allow for ‘doubt’
and for possible subsequent confirmation, whereas as a materialist
I do NOT allow for doubt. I am absolutely convinced absolutely
nothing beyond physical explanation of the world around
can exist.
4. I regard secular orthodoxy and materialism as
my gods and my salvation for this lifetime on this earth.
As an extreme materialist I will always push selfishness
to its extreme to attain maximum pleasure – even if
I have to corrupt or prostitute my talents or exploit my
position in life to attain all this.
5. I do not believe in helping the weak, aiding
the poor, helping those who cannot help themselves or in
doing anything unless there is a direct benefit in it for
me or for my own career- especially in psychology.
6. I am strongly against spirituality, against
religion, against ‘god’, and actively against
anything else EXCEPT the ‘secular religion’
of materialism.
7. I live only for materialism and will do anything
in my power to work against the paranormal, psychic phenomena
and anyone who tries to show the afterlife exists.
8. I believe I will not be ultimately responsible
for my negative actions, negative deeds, negative manipulations,
negative conduct in any way.
9. As an extreme materialist, I will maliciously
do anything to attain my goal – I will lie, cheat,
misrepresent, deceive, deface, desecrate anything which
is fundamentally inconsistent with my extreme belief in
materialism.
10. Inevitably, I will always be a short term thinker
and short term planner for my immediate gain with absolutely
no thoughts past this lifetime on earth.
