Kudos to Roosh for taking this leap forward. The God Pill is indeed the next step in the Blue Pill -> Red Pill -> Black Pill progression (if not necessarily the only one).
- Blue Pill: The modern world's popular ideologies: feminism, egalitarianism, liberalism*, scientism, etc.
*in the classical sense, not the sense of US politics
- Red Pill: Game and the nature of women. The manosphere's origins.
- Black Pill: I consider this to be embodied by Samseau's article from 2014,
Game Or Prostitution Cannot Save Western Civilization From Collapsing. The summary is that game is a zero-sum game, and thus will not fix all the problems on a societal level, even if it can improve one man's situation on an individual level (see Red Pill). Self-improvement only works for you because most other men are not doing it.
IMO The Black Pill paints a more dismal picture than most people in the manosphere realize. Even if you took away female empowerment, obesity, empowerment, and all the other stuff that the Red Pill is supposed to counter, you're still left with fundamental problems in the SMP such as:
- Birth ratio is 105:100 M:F.
- If one woman is taken, that's one fewer woman from the pool available for other men.
- Male fertility window is much longer than women, hence there is more male sexual demand than female sexual supply.
- Someone will end up marrying the ugly women.
- People still buy into the notion that your wife is supposed to be your soul mate, or the "one man one woman" cliche (see birth ratio).
These problems can be possibly mitigated through science, such as through selective breeding in a patriarchal society. However, this would be too bitter of a pill for the majority of the population to swallow, because it goes against so many of their Blue Pill (and even allegedly Red Pill) beliefs. Nobody would back such a plan that requires shattering so many of their deeply held assumptions about life.
At the end of the day, the honest Black Piller should at least accept that humanity is fundamentally flawed. These problems cannot be permanently fixed (short of maybe genetic engineering, and that's a whole new can of worms to open), only restrained and mitigated by structuring society in a certain way (patriarchy).
That sounds like the Christian concept of Original Sin. As in, the origins of societal problems and discord come from not just immoral decisions made by individuals who can't help themselves, but from fundamental properties of human nature. Just as gravity causes things to fall, magnets cause metal to move, and heat and oxygen causes things to burn, so does human sexuality cause competition and problems on a society.
This opens the door to the God Pill. Humanity is flawed and cannot save ourselves from that flawed nature. We need intervention from a greater power to transcend that flawed nature. This is how the concept of the divine can enter into the human consciousness. From there, you get the concepts of salvation, redemption, resurrection into a perfect body, etc. That sounds like Christianity, although as Roosh said in the OP, there's room in this thread to share similar God Pills in other religions.
The critics of belief in a higher power need to do better than to say that religion is false, because unless they come up with their own counterpart to the God Pill (e.g. through genetic engineering as I explained earlier), the best that they can do is stay in the Black Pill stage. At least the rest of us are open to moving beyond that stage.
