I plagiarised this topic from a friend, just so that i don't mistakenly take the credit (: The topic that's been playing on my mind for a few weeks now as i sit; as i eat; as i sleep. The topic disgusts me. I wish it would leave me alone and i wish that it would leave this planet forever so that the world would be a much brighter place. The billions of people that would disagree with what I'm saying, if you're reading, please do keep reading... it might broaden your mind, or who knows, might even change your opinion. I'm wrong, incorrect, false, any variation of the word is what i am. No matter what i say and no matter what anyone will say this blog will not turn a single cheek. The topic that I'm discussing, you know? The one that has confounded the majority of the population for the 4.5 billion years that the earth has been proven to be existent for.
False hope Narrow-mindedness Religion.
There is this huge difference between a believer and an infidel. If a christian, If a Muslim, If a Jew were to walk up to me and try and conjure an elusive being into my head i would listen to them intently, keen on trying to figure out a flaw in their beliefs, trying to dissuade myself from my beliefs, what i believe in. A believer on the other hand, faced with the same situation only in reverse, wouldn't listen. Why? "My faith, That's all i need." Your faith. Your faith that there is this higher being, this powerful lord, the omega. Oh Lord how i wish i were you. I wish could accept religion that easily, oh how i wish i could simply push contradiction from my mind.
Where is this God of yours? The one taking his time about saving our planet, the one that we're destroying, the one that he made. Is it us paying for the sins of global warming or is it the generations who didn't enforce the laws properly. Is it us who should pay for it or is it our great great great great grandchildren? Oh yeah the people who haven't been born yet should pay, it's their fault is it? an extremely merciful god that we have on our hands here.
Let me put this last point to you, to a christian specifically. There are a lot of flaws with other religions but i don't want to bore you further.
Is Tesco open on a Sunday? Are many stores open on a Sunday... yes. Many christian stores are open, on a Sunday, the sabbath, the holiest of days for a christian am i right? One of the commandments if i remember correctly is 'The seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; you shall not do any work' and if a commandment is broken, you shall be 'put to death' According to the lord. If there was any sort of order or devotion to the bible, surely one deranged extremist will do what their book tells them, and smite billions of innocent workers who work their jobs on a Sunday. On this notion, the bible is repulsive. I personally do not want to read about how i should be, what i should do, and if i don't i will go to hell.
Let me go to hell.
I don't need more on my mind than what i already have. I don't need to have this omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent being hanging on my shoulder so that I'm scared to do what will or might make my life better. It's this that makes a believer narrow-minded. If you don't question your faith then you haven't opened your eyes. Faith makes the whole world blind, but blind faith is what makes the world. Try it some time, think about how this could actually be true, TRY and get around the fact that millions of people haven't just been 'testing your faith' by tempting you with convenient alibis, I'm sure if there was a god he would have expected you to doubt yourself, expected you to be smart enough not to be too devoted, and waste away the life that he gave you.
Amen.

Well a good Point there, science vs religion i like it!!
ReplyDeleteYou know what I love about scientists? They don't pretend to know everything. They put forward ideas and theories after huge amounts of thought and speculation, rigorously test these theories against everything they can think of, and then they accept it as impossible, improbable, plausible, highly probable, or fact. They're always discovering new things, and always happy to be proven wrong.
What they don't do is this: "How was the universe created, and what was there before then? Heck, I'm stumped. There must be some kind of mystical being that created everything... Yeah that's it! No evidence suggests such a thing, so they must be a creator
Sometimes science just doesn't explain everything.
Last thing before i go, haven’t you heard about a woman who turned into a fish by kicking the holy book well you try and figure that out and there are so many miracle that god created on earth for us humans to see. WEAPONS, medicine, drugs, etc.. its humans fault that they creating they own dying weapons.
Well try an answer thEse questions: HOW DID THE HUMAN LIFE STARTED? WHO WAS THE FIRST PERSON ON EARTH? AND WHERE DID HE/SHE COME FROM???
HOW WAS THE WORLD CREATED?
You make a really good point, I'm not too sure which side you're on here if any. If you are then you have a very unbiased viewpoint, A lot of what you said makes sense to me, expecially the scientists proving their points and backing everything up with hard evidence. Fact. That's probably why I find it hard to take these religious figures seriously, they don't have any hard proof, they want me to conform to what they say i should do, have blind faith in a harsh God and push it on me instead of letting me find my own way.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your imput though (:
