Thanks a lot!

The nuances of how things are looked at are subtle and not always considered when we just accept things as they are; if people haven't critically examined the system rather than accepting its place, then they can jump to certain ways of seeing things that are still within the problems. It is like attempting to address a symptom rather than trying to address the root cause--there are always side effects.

As far as government replacing religion, I'd be very careful in that conclusion. Religion is about God, and those who believe in their religions believe in them much more than they believe in their government since they perceive one as God and the other not. Simply put, one's perception of God is more influential than a government (which is essentially a lesser god, regardless of if its perceived as such).

Governments are largely controlled by religions, in the hierarchy of how things function it all starts with the things that control us, as a whole, the most and then trickles down to the least influential things. God, religion, self, family, friends, government, ...for example, as a hierarchy. This means that people in government roles can make decisions that are really stemming from their religious views. It's no accident that the world is approaching a world war between America and Russia, two Christian nations. There is an active pursuit to "prepare the way for God" by bringing the world events to look as much like prophecy fulfillment as possible. It's really intense psychological warfare by willing participants who have already been overpowered by that psychological warfare at a previous stage--if that makes sense.

Unfortunately government and religion will always try to get its fingers in control of whatever it can if we just passively allow their existence. The best approach is just raising awareness as much as possible to the flaws behind them and have a global debate where persuasive arguments are allowed to transform the way we do things. If there's no system, we need to be good to one another and actively support one another and stand for equality and peace. That really stems from global understanding that God is Everything, which is the foundation of a successful society. Having that God as top priority, means everyone and everything is important.
