The Cult of the Apple - but let me get to the story:
As I was passing by a Mac store in town, I saw the symbol of the bitten apple that is the visual logo of the company.
What came up in that moment is the story of God and the tree of knowledge, the forbidden fruit of which man took a bite, mis-led by woman, mis-led by the snake...
Fascinating that ‘God’ would attempt to hide its trail through shifting responsibility to near-by points which, admittedly, do not lack symbolism, but do however distract from the criminal in the first place: God.
Yes – God the criminal. Because what can it possibly mean when God placed a trap for the human and not only that but makes sure the human walks right into the trap? The mere fact that God created a tree that is ‘forbidden’ shows that God is evil and was a priori planning to set a trap for the human and justify his bipolar creation, life ‘born into sin’.
And it is ‘fascinatingly’ sick, how man as the image and likeness of God is equal to God’s bipolar creation, equal to God’s evil-ution – creating ‘forbidden fruits’ and tempting each-other into traps and loops where everybody tries to win while another must lose. The hide & seek power-games of adults are adultery against life.
Ex-i-stance is s-i-ck...
in the image and likeness of God and the Hu-man.
After all the Human is all about what one God and what one hasn’t God. There’s even people that haven’t God anything at all and simply DIE.
If we look a bit deeper at God the criminal, it is fascinating how God did not want man, the human, to be equal to God. God had the knowledge to create good & evil - yet God itself claimed to be good? Ha! And man buys into it?
The Apple itself, part of nature, part of the Garden of Eden, turns out to be a fruit of the devil? But if God created everything – why did God create the devil?
Was God itself perhaps evil, was God perhaps equal to Knowledge and thus evil – because see when I look at it: there exists no evil before the Knowledge that separates good from evil. Therefore knowledge is separation and separation creates evil. And God had separated itself from man, and man separates itself from each-other, from everything that exists, and everything is in a constant struggle against each other. No common sense!
And all was happening from the beginning in God’s paradise! Fascinating how ‘close’ the words paradise and parasite are!
Apple the computer business chose a successful visual logo for its market strategy. Whether one is consciously aware of the point or unconsciously – the Apple represents Source itself, and source is defined by consciousness as Knowledge. Knowledge – the fruit that lures the human with promises of ‘something more’ and (di)visions of ‘grandeur’...
And there we have it: a human that is always only after the bite, after the next fix, after the next energy high – but never fulfilled, never whole, never equal to all that is here, never committed to anything for real.
If we look a little deeper into the symbolism of the business world at Apple and Microsoft, and go a little back in the early days of IT and www: When you would buy Apply some 20 years ago, it was to protect yourself from the infamous Microsoft viruses and small catastrophes that would flood the business news every now and then. Nowadays, Apple equipment is ‘equalizing’ itself to meet the expiry date of your average technological product on the market, since the money-system depends on things breaking and people constantly re-newing their collections of technological advancements. Microsoft back then was representing and targeting the masses and promising ‘happiness for all’, while Apple was addressing the elite promising ‘quality’, though it is obvious that both concerns are equally based on profit and profit only; one is simply targeting a more-elitist elite, while the other is addressing more of the middle-class elite – and none is or can be protected from the consequences of this man-made reality.
Perhaps God is also somewhere between the lines, trying to hide from reality, trying to avoid consequence, but it is impossible. As all that is here is here for all to see, in this mess-age where each one is inevitably facing oneself – Earth the eye of the needle where space and time meet and consequence returns to its creator...
Apples just don’t taste good anymore, and it’s not that I haven’t I’ve been around...
