RATIONAL PARTS!
“There are those who don't believe in one or another doctrine, who don't want to know about one or another religion, as something that knows everything and knows how to solve everything. And that's why they talk about spiritism with anyone, the spiritism that everyone knows. What they don't know is RATIONAL IMMUNIZATION. No one knows what immunization is, not even by name. The living being, when he doesn't know, must try to know first, in order to know what he says. cannot achieve good results and proves that it does not respect this matter."
(Page 188, 1st. Volume, Book UNIVERSE IN DISENCHANTMENT, author: RATIONAL SUPERIOR).
CONSIDERATIONS: RATIONAL CULTURE IS NOT A RELIGION, IT IS NOT A SECT OR A DOCTRINE.
(SECOND PART)
Framing is a natural tendency of people when they know something new and unpublished, that is, they seek in their points of reference and traditional knowledge an identification or justification to explain, define everything that is new and unknown. This insecurity and need to label everything within patterns that are already known and mastered, make people not realize that nature is one of transformations, where nothing is repeated. The patterns of yesterday and now, created by imagination and thought, do not have sufficient basis or structure to serve as a reference point for manifestations of today's and tomorrow's life, respectively. So, in the rush to classify what they don't know, some have insisted on saying that RATIONAL CULTURE is a sect, other times they say it's religion, doctrine and so on. And none of this is RATIONAL CULTURE. And, based on the Dictionary of Aurélio Buarque de Holanda (Brazilian Philologist), we explain why. (THE CONTENT BETWEEN THE QUOTES BELOW IS A TRANSCRIPTION FROM THAT DICTIONARY).
REGARDING THE SECT
"Doctrine or system that diverges from the general opinion and followed by all".
RATIONAL CULTURE, as proved earlier, is not Doctrine. It is indeed a knowledge of peace, love and fraternity that everyone wants and seeks. It is knowledge in favor of logic, reason, concord among peoples, which even in law, over time, humanity has defended as necessary for the preservation of life. It is not against anything, against any system and it proves that all are necessary for the stoning of humanity and its preparation in the sense of understanding that out of the natural, nothing works, there is no balance, there is no peace. Therefore, RATIONAL CULTURE is not against anything, nor as fair to place these existing systems, for the balance of the Rational animal and its consequent harmony with nature.
"A set of individuals who profess the same doctrine".
To profess means to acknowledge publicly. Now, whoever dedicates himself to the study of RATIONAL CULTURE is because he has naturally identified himself with the truths that it contains. Because RATIONAL CULTURE does not depend on recognition or consideration, because truth is independent of any recognition. It exists and by itself it is enough. It doesn't need beings, but beings need it. It is a powerful and natural force that gives cause, origin and basis to all existences. Like the air that feeds everyone, indiscriminately and independently of any recognition or consideration. On air, it doesn't matter what the atheists and the religious say about it, the poets and the businessmen, the rich and the poor, men and women. They weave opinions about it, but none of them will change the truth that air is and it will interfere with its function. Being Rational is not wasting time with comments extracted from imagination and thought and trying to get to know him as he (air) is, in order to harmonize with him. And yet, already proven, RATIONAL CULTURE is not Doctrine.
“Closed community of a radical nature".
RATIONAL CULTURE is a Culture and not a community. A superior Culture, therefore, open and not against anything or anyone, it is in favor of everything and everyone. It proves that everything is necessary and necessary, deserving respect and therefore not radical.
“Theory of a Master Followed by Numerous Proselytes".
RATIONAL CULTURE is not theory because it is not hypothesis or supposition and does not depend on demonstrations. Whoever dedicates himself to its study cannot be called a proselyte, because a proselyte is an individual converted to a doctrine, idea or system; a sectarian, adept, partisan. There is no conversion to RATIONAL CULTURE because it is the knowledge that completes every human being and universalizes, that is, unifies existing knowledge. RATIONAL CULTURE unites, eliminates differences, with the sectarianisms that bring conflicts to humanity, it unites all existing parts without underestimating them. So there is no conversion, but a real appreciation of life through the awareness of existence.
