The Big Lie Divides Us

For centuries, the Big Lie has told humanity that some of us can be natural-born inferiors. This plague has been at the root of all enslavement, oppression, fascism, and discrimination. Today, it resurfaces as attacks on women’s rights, LGBTQ+ dignity, racial justice, immigrant families, and more.

We refuse to let the Big Lie rise again!

A Union Built on One Idea: Equality for All

Meet TOGE

Temple of the Groovy Eye (TOGE) was founded by a group of everyday people: artists, writers, philosophers, and scientists who joined forces to form a new Equality Union. TOGE was established as a Pennsylvania non-profit religious institution, where equality is our sacred conviction.

This conviction is the only weapon that will slay The Big Lie once and for all. We wield it when we speak its Big Truth, with a declaration that is beautiful, free, and harms no one. It goes like this:

“You are my equal. And I am yours.”

The time is now. Take action and defeat fascism for all time by joining our egalitarian movement today! We have a plan.

We will change the world. Find out how.

The Big Truth: A Philosophy of Human Equality

The Big Truth is beautiful because it is simple. It is a single declaration that builds relationships in which every person is possessed of inherent worth and dignity, regardless of race, nationality, gender, faith, sexuality, economic status, or any other characteristic.

We do not ask individuals to abandon their identities, spirituality, or experiences when joining our Equality Union. Instead, we encourage them to see those identities as part of a larger human family connected through equality. When we embrace the idea that every person is our equal, our communities are made strong. Our institutions are made fair. Our world is made compassionate.

The Time is Now

This is our time to be beautiful.

Those in power will never deliver equality. We must declare it and take it, for ourselves and all future generations. Let this be our legacy.

Right here, right now, is a holy place to be.

To you, dear reader, I declare:

“You are my equal. And I am yours.”

Take Action

Why Equality Requires Action in the Present Moment

As a driver of the egalitarian movement in Philadelphia and across the United States, we are focused on the sacredness of the present moment and the power of actions. Members are encouraged to speak the Big Truth now, to learn about and support one another, participate in meaningful discussions, challenge injustice, and take positive nonviolent action within their own communities. 

Equality becomes stronger when we all stand united for the dignity of another, listen with compassion, and refuse to participate in systems of exclusion and discrimination.

By focusing our energy first on our immediate personal relationships, we ensure that our equality movement has depth, strength, and teeth, transforming abstract ideals into real-world relief, empowerment, and systemic disruption.

Become Part of the Equality Union

Temple of the Groovy Eye invites you to become part of a community united by one simple yet revolutionary idea: “You are my equal. And I am yours.”

As a social justice organization in Philadelphia, we are committed to spreading The Big Truth and helping people turn that truth into action. 

Together, we can challenge the harmful narratives that divide humanity and replace them with a vision rooted in dignity, respect, and shared worth.

There is great sacredness to be had in acts of kindness. Learn more about our equality union, connect with our community, become ordained, and discover how you can advance a future built on the mighty foundation of equality for all.
