Disregard for God

The disregard for God is the original sin.

The world is a fallen world because it has fallen away from the awareness that God is all in all. The accumulation of this disregard for God is the original sin that blights the world. And even the religion of this fallen world cannot heal or redeem it, for it has accepted the reduction of God to an area called «sacred» («spiritual», «supernatural») — as opposed to the world as «profane». It has accepted the all embracing secularism which attempts to steal the world away from God.
