Idea For A New Religion - Chapter 11 - The Public Services

THE PUBLIC SERVICES 1) What we deny to our fellow human being, we deny to God. All, including nature, are God, God belongs to God, so all belongs to all and all should have an equal share of the world and its resources. 2) All that is essential for the preservation of life and quality of life should be given freely to the people. Medicine and healthcare, education, policing, financial services, housing, clothing, fuel, food and water, toys for children and anything which is necessary to sustain life and give people a decent quality of life must be made freely available to all. 3) In order to make life sustaining goods and services freely available to all, they must be owned by the state and the state must serve the interests of the people and be motivated by a love of the people. 4) The public services are the hand of a benevolent, maternal God, doing good in the world. A national health service and national pharmaceutical industry are the healing and regenerative power of god. Schools, colleges, universities and librarys are the womb of education, custodians of the infant future; policemen and women are the trusted guardians of the people who should never let themselves be used as tools of oppression or betray the trust of the people by behaving like criminals. The public services must respect and love the people and earn the respect and love of the people.
