"An ideology is a set of conscious and unconscious ideas that constitute one's goals, expectations, and actions."

God is a useless ideology. Religion maybe is what you are referring to, which still, is not so bad as an ideology but compared to survival its childs play isnt it. Its in the realm of choice not necessity.

maybe idea? god could be the greatest idea we have thought of but thats debatable. I would lean towards recognising the concept of "the self" is more impressive as an idea, awareness itself.

Anti-natalism is the ultimate form of cowardice. Not to embrace nihilism, but to embrace the death of all independent modalities in general? Is this the ultimate finality? Truly, must human progress become so turgid you give up instead of embrace the overflowing creative spirit. We are in a tumultuous time, no doubt, but don't e scared. This is the turn of the 3rd millennium, embrace the progress.
