Do you agree with the idea that Abramic Religions are a tax haven for extortionists?

Answer 1

Maybe spiritual blackmail is used to extort gold from communities of faithful believers in the form of tithes and offerings made to support the upkeep of the place of worship. Is it in this sense, that you are arguing that Abramic Religions are a tax haven for extortionists?


Maybe spiritual blackmail comes in the form of an exclusive divine revelation of spiritual knowledge. Maybe ideological authorities proclaim that these exculsive divine revelations of spiritual knowledge are true and were recorded as words in sacred scrolls written by messengers chosen by a good one in Heaven at war with an evil one cast down to and ruling over Earth. Maybe ideological authorities proclaim to the many of the global culture that based upon these exclusive divine revelations of spiritual knowledge that it is the will of a good one in heaven that members of communities of faithful believers submit to the will of a good one in Heaven and in so doing surrender their authority to make up their own minds about self and world to ideological authorities who affirm an ability to know about the existence of the good one in Heaven and his will. Having gained this authority, maybe ideological authorities begin a life long process of indoctrination or as some call it brain washing designed to make up the minds of believers with a model of self and world divided by a spiritual conflict between a good one in Heaven and an evil one cast down to and ruling over Earth. Maybe included with this indoctrination are the idea that the good one in Heaven demands all members of communities of faithful believers conform.of standard of conduct described as good. Maybe Ideological authorities proclaim to members of communities of faithful beleivers that a good one in Heaven will judge as good those members who conform and do as they are told by ideological authorities and when final judgment is made and punishment and rewards are dealt out good members will be rewarded with entry to heaven and experience divine bliss for the rest of Eternity in the presense of the good one. Maybe ideological authorities proclaim to members of communities of faithful believers that a good one in Heaven will judge as evil those members who deviate and don't do as they are told by ideological authorities and everyone else who did not conform to the standard of conduct described by ideological authorities as being the will of a good one in Heaven and when final judgment is passed and rewards and punishment are dealt out they will be made to go to hell and experience abominable infernal torment for the rest of Eternity. Maybe these threats of eternal damnation and promises of divine bliss give power to those ideological authorities who use this spiritual blackmail to extort gold in the form of tithes or offerings. In the minds of those whose minds are enslaved to the will of ideological authories who claim to know the will of a good one in Heaven at war with an evil one cast down to and ruling over Earth, the idea of making a terrorist attack upon infidels could easily become equated with fighting evil and if death should come as a result then this could be equated with becoming a martyr on the way to gaining entry to Heaven and experiencing divine bliss for the rest of Eternity. From these kinds of equations follows a global shakedown of epic proportions some call a "war on terror". This is a form of extortion where in a mercenary plutocratic predatory few that profit from the sale and manufacture of the products and services of a beast of a military industrial complex patronize or give funding to those ideological authorities who best lead communities of faithful believers into war with one another over differences of opinions regarding faith.

Answer 2

No.

I don't think Jewish, Christian, and Islamic (which are all Abramic religions according to several of the sites I found on Google) are tax havens for extortionists.
