This loss of credibility, however, that effects so many of the most vital areas of the society's foundation, is not a natural one. It reflects an active process of de-education, which is carried forward by means of defective ideological axioms that have largely been created and promoted for the advancement of imperial processes and the protection of imperial structures, rather than the progress and protection of mankind.
Both of mankind's bright periods of renaissance were, thus, terminated in the shadow of the rise of great empires. The Greek Classical renaissance, together with the early Christian renaissance, was terminated by the 'globalization' of the Roman empire and its dehumanizing ideology and policies. Mankind's second renaissance was terminated by the financial and ideological 'globalization' of the British Empire and its dehumanizing influence. This, largely invisible empire, has grown in leaps and bounds since the Venetian 'takeover' of England. It had nursed itself with the riches of the slave trade, colonial looting, and the profits of the dope peddling bonanza following its opium wars against China.
In the wake of the advancing globalization of the imperial sphere of influence and the increasing dehumanization of its ideology since its invention of the murderous eugenics ideology in the 1800s, the gentle spiritual principles that the renaissance was built on, were swept into oblivion. With the base of the renaissance, thus, eroded, the pinnacle of its manifest in the world lost its foundation. Scientific Christ healing declined.
In order to explore the nature of the foundation that once existed, that the last renaissance had brought to light, the scientist of today needs to enquire into how axiomatic perversion prevents the once demonstrated potential of Christian metaphysics from becoming realized in the same full measure in which they were realized in the historically brightest periods? What, for instance, has happened to Christ Jesus's promise for the realization of even greater works than his? Did his promise fail? Were his sayings idle words, or had they a deep scientific background. The apostle John records him as saying, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me" (he that recognizes the validity of the principles that I have demonstrated), "the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father" (because the direction that I represent points to the final reality, the absolute, the 'Father,' the highest identity of being, the gate to infinity).*(John 14:12)
Logically, what had been demonstrated to be possible at one single instance in history must necessarily be possible at any time, or in any age thereafter. The "truth" that Christ Jesus spoke of and had demonstrated in his healing work, must logically continue to be as true as it was then. The laws that he utilized, must by their nature as laws be still operational. Laws do not change. By the nature of the underlying principle that they represent, they must operate with the same effectiveness, without the slightest deviation. The science that once manifested itself in astonishing healing, both in Jesus' time and in latter years, cannot have become invalid. The nature of reality does not decay or change. But something has changed. This change, therefore, must be sought in a changing scientific environment in which capabilities that had once been common, can no longer be achieved.
This change in environment is found in many other areas as well. For instance, the art of navigating the oceans of the world by means of celestial navigation, such as earlier cultures had developed, which had later become universally practiced with the introduction of the sextant, has nearly disappeared in today's age of space based electronic navigation systems. The Global Positioning System, as it is called, has far surpassed the accuracy and ease of use of any other navigation system ever invented. With this advance in technology, however, the once acquired mental capability has become lost. How many people are left in today's world who can accurately navigate with the sextant? There may not be many. In this case the loss is not dramatic as the advanced capability has improved the process of navigation, even revolutionized it, but it illustrates the point.
