Monotheism is what happens when spiritual fear meets tribal narcissism and gets institutionalized into a cosmic dictatorship. It takes the raw human panic about death, chaos, and insignificance, and injects it with the narcotic of certainty: There is one god, and He chose us. That’s not enlightenment—it’s collective ego on divine steroids. It's not enough to have a god; your god must be the only one, everyone else must be wrong, and doubters deserve hell. It hijacks metaphysics to build social control, moral absolutism, and unearned superiority. It doesn't free the soul—it brands it, files it, and makes it kneel.
Under the hood, it’s a spiritual cartel: one book, one boss, one path—or else. It replaces curiosity with obedience, wonder with rules, and inner silence with loud dogma. Its entire architecture is a panic response dressed up as moral truth—death is scary, so invent heaven; life is chaotic, so pretend someone’s in charge. It's a control schema for domesticated apes who can’t face the void, so they export all uncertainty into a sky tyrant and call it peace. Monotheism doesn’t elevate man—it cripples him, turning infinite mystery into a loyalty test and calling it divine order.
