A Brazilian Constitutional Monarchy

A Constitutional Monarch would focus on national unity, history and purpose, honoring all its institutions, in order to be poised to remain separate from the Head of State. This would be the role of the Prime Minister - the holder of executive power who, although in charge of His/Her Majesty's Government, would fall under the democratic control of Congress . The sovereign, however, would play a unique role since he/she would provide impartial non-political support vis-à-vis various aspects of public life.

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF (RELIGIOUS) OBJECTS VIS-À-VIS THE POWER OF THE MIND VERSUS “FAITH” OR “MIRACLES”

The key to peaceful contentment (as well as the far more important goal of Reducing the quantity and/or scope of Human Conflicts) lies with mankind’s willingness to completely eliminate ALL types/versions of primitive, absurd, hate inspiring mythological sects (a.k.a. “religious faiths) from the fabric (and every aspect) of human societies. An effort which will not be attained until such time when the overwhelming predominance of human IGNORANCE, which renders mankind to blindly engage into a form of psychological voluntary slavery, whereby the “ideological Master” demands absolute obedience (since it emanates from a divine being) and engage into absurd sets of dogmatic beliefs in order to attain “salvation” without the ability or expectation of EVER question any principle or tenet, lest he/she may be deemed blasphemous or – worse – an Infidel!

In addition, because ALL remaining primitive, “mythological sects” (a.k.a. religious institutions) invariably contain fundamentally significant sets of rather DISTINCT (IF not outright opposite) ecclesiastical concepts, “divine dictates or commands”, not to mention the types (and scope) of SINS, all of which representing the KEY to the (real) TRUTH and/or the “righteous path” (often the SOLE path) towards a so-called "salvation", these Sects ultimately provide (in the long run) the “raw material” for a wide variety of antagonizing, irreconcilable positions as stipulated by competing philosophies, often also automatically implying that all other competing religions (and their infidel followers) are either blasphemous or evil!

A deeper significant analysis of current and historical conflicts is bound to stipulate that these fundamental and irreconcilable religious distinctions have been systematically and historically the underlying trigger (openly or concealed) behind the source(s) of most wars across our planet.

Moreover, because during some key time periods (at various locations) of our known History, such religious institutions were either led or influenced by clever, deviant and powerful clerics/priests/imams who were in a position to manipulate the ignorant millions of “faithful believers” (often to accomplish selfish, hidden agendas) vis-à-vis the previously mentioned irreconcilable amalgamation of primitive distinctions, the tragic end result of which often culminated with the incalculable suffering, torture, and/or extermination of thousands (even millions) of innocent victims!

Yet, there are ultra-liberal intellectuals who advocate the idyllic notion whereby "the key to peaceful contentment lies in opening the symbols of the world's religions to everyone" not only reflects exceeding levels of naïveté, but also implicitly adheres and feeds the very archaic institutions responsible to the ignorance, the hatred, and ultimate unhappiness of the masses of whichever culture.

The actual underlying significance behind such views, whereby religious objects would "miraculously" provide the necessary strength for individuals to attain "inner peace" originates rather in an entirely different factor, namely: the Power of the Human Mind. Indeed, although modern science remains unable to fully explain the source of such intangible abilities – despite the never ending flow of amazing discoveries – it is clear that our brains are the true agents which provide the intrinsic capability for anyone to bring to fruition a wide variety of great accomplishments if/when accessing their “inner power” which derives from strong beliefs or convictions (as opposed to “faith” or “miracles”) by successfully utilizing certain "symbols" (often incorrectly associated with iconic artifacts) towards the accomplishment of certain objectives considered extremely hard or nearly impossible.
