Universal Unitarian Sith Thread

This speaks to the fact that achieving even my perfect desire is less than satisfying. My spirituality asks why I was born and why do I have to die. It is designed to explore the question of whether I will ever be able to be perfectly happy, even during the pursuit of my desires, before they are achieved. It is a question that no answer will ever provide a lasting peace in. In this idea happiness as well as suffering are perfectly designed to be frustrating. It reveals the fact that peace is but a lie. If you find no contradiction between these views and dogmatic religious systems such as Christianity, then so be it. However, as a Sith I do find contradiction in these positions.

Dogmatic religious systems like Christianity try to fill this void of mystery that spirituality provides with a fear-based system of control. It is a system that attempts to coerce the individual into accepting answers there is no evidence for. In contrast to this, Sith Masters are creators of their own morality. In fact, the very core of Sith philosophy is one in which external moral standards are viewed as chains that need to be broken in favor of a personal code of ethics. But dogmatic systems such as religion do not allow this. Instead they devalue and ultimately reject these ideas of independence by demonizing such pursuits. The codes they espouse rigidly dictate external values the individual is forced to accept that are designed to strip the individual’s ability to enact independent will through strength to gain power as they see fit. I find this totally out of line with Sith philosophy.
