When I contradict with the religion?
OP - August 26, 2015, 05:35 AM
By long and intricate ways of evolution, we, the human have developed our brain, our creativity, our power imagination & critical thinking more than any other species on this planet. Yet all of our ability is still confined within the invisible boundary of life and death.
Our critical thinking ability incessantly gave rise of questions about what lay outside of this boundary. We wanted to know where we came from and where we will be heading towards at the end of this life. We thought about how this universe was created, and by whom? How the nature and the earth came into being?
Obviously we hardly got those answers and this is the point where our imagination came into action. From practical experience we knew nothing can be created on its own. We tried to apply this cardinal rule on the genesis of this universe. “If there is a creation there must be a creator.” And obviously that creator who possessed the might of creating the whole universe is far superior to any of the human we ever knew. This is how the idea of a superhuman species or God came into being.
After imagination here comes our creativity. We used our creativity to promote the ideas of God into an organize religion. And this is the point where we have taken it too far. There is a God, who requires continuous coaxing in order to be in a festive mood. His complacency promise great rewards in both temporal and celestial life. On the other hand his wrath will cause ineffable sorrows and suffering on earth as well as in the afterlife. We used our creativity to create heaven and hell as our ultimate destination beyond the boundary of death, and it will be decided on the basis of complacency or wrath of our imaginary God. And that’s the point when various rituals started to emerge. To appease the God. Again from our practical experiences we can’t find an unmixed good in anything. Where there’s a good thing, there must be a bad stuff lurking around. Each of our emotional feelings have equal and opposite feeling to counterpoise. Like happiness-sadness, joy-sorrow, revelry-depression thriving-suffering etc. So does every other thing in this universe. Like Light-darkness, rigidity-fragility, heat-cold etc. So why not the God have an equal and opposite competitor? We already assumed God to be an assortment of all good attributes. So his competitor should be a diabolic evil, a wicked abomination. This is how Satan was created. And these all are due to the awesomeness of our creativity.
It’s okey that many of us can’t get pleased with the truth and seek complacency in historic lies and fallacies. Many of us have such a high self esteem that they aren’t ready to except the obvious truth. They can’t simply accept that their whole existence will someday be demolished by death. So they try to console themselves believing in imaginary afterlife, which is more promising than their current condition. If they simply find salvation in it, then who the hell I am to stand against it? If they wanna live their whole life by deceiving themselves then it’s their personal choice and I don’t give a shit about that. But my contradictions with religion begin when they try to impose their own believe on me, When they try to judge me from their own perspectives, When they tell me how to lead my own life, when they invade in my bedroom and speak against my sexual orientation, when they violate animal welfare and arrange sacred rituals and sacrifices, when they say I will burn in hell for eternity only for not believing their fallacies, when they hack my friends to death for revealing truth that debunk with their lies, when they incarcerate women within veils and imprison them in their own house, when they reply rationalism with terrorism, when they spread hatred and wage war, When they kill and get killed out of insanity, when they impede against the progress of science and spread ignorance, finally after doing all these shit when they claim themselves to be the best human and declare their dogma to be the peaceful religion.
This is the moment when I throw my shits at their face.
God didn't created us in his Image. We created God as our own reflection.
