nobody can deny the existence of God
By so many I have been deceived,
Of course I am peeved.
More so at myself,
The other was cause itself.
You should get to know yourself,
Mans best friend is himself.
Understand yourself ,when you understand the master is in you then can you see the master outside of you.Change yourself and the world changes I aim to connect with people through knowledge and love
How can, imperfect humans "become" gods? ? ?
To me, God, has to be pure, holy, perfect, without ANY (human) weak qualities. Anything less is NO GOD! Who determines deity anyway, us? ONE is either s
"selfexistent" or not. Strange! ! "(
You and I are in two different worlds, my friend. I have not understood any of your concepts,at all. Perhaps you feel the same about mine.
I can't even respond (rationally) to your comment.
Humans are gods or gods in the making
I think I get what you mean, if there was just one unilateral religion then that would be great, but I don't believe that with billions of people all over the world with differing religions that they'd be very unlikely to leave theirs for this new Super Religion.
And this may be the very reason people fight, it is the case in many places in the world. This is probably the main reason why I personally don't have a religion and am reluctant to adopt a new one, it seems to cause too much troubles.
But I still have the utmost respect for anyone who is religious in any faith, at university my friend who is sikh was not meant to eat meat on tuesday (or wednesday I think
) and he'd always complain that he wanted to eat meat, so there were many times I ended up cooking a vegetable stirfry for the pair of us, there were many traditions and practices that he did that I found interesting.
The same was the case when I worked in a company and was partnered with a guy on a telephone cabling job who was a muslim. This was shortly after the london bombings a few years ago and I can remember a pretty heartfelt conversation where I asked what he thought about people using his religion to commit atrocities and he was really annoyed.
He said it was a case of people hiding behind religion and twisting phrases from the Koran and other ideologies of islam. He said he knew of noone in his family and community that condoned those actions, he said there are things about other cultures that he differs from but he and others in majority just accept it, they are no less islamic if they don't protest against certain western traditions or practices like Gambling etc. He just ignores it and gets on with his life.
These two cases are things that have helped me get a better understanding of other religions and have nothing but respect for them, I think all people who have grown up on one relgious belief should at least conduct some research even if it's as menial as mine.
If nothing else it helps understand the truth behind the shocking headlines the media put out when they generalise an entire relgious group or race.Imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in, an interesting hole I find myself in, fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!' This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the air heats up and as, gradually, the puddle gets smaller and smaller, it's still frantically hanging on to the notion that everything's going to be alright, because this world was meant to have him in it, was built to have him in it; so the moment he disappears catches him rather by surprise. I think this may be something we need to be on the watch out for.
I think Mark says nature is just how it is and there is no God's creation. Am I right?
How simple -nature is just how it is.
I cannot make such a simple thing like nature ,maybe the atheists can .
The wind,rain,storms etc.Being a poet/philosopher I do not posses such intelligence.
I am dumbfounded by nature and this universe.
Sure.What you are seeing is "energy can neither be created nor be destroyed"
The puddle seems to be disappearing but the water content which forms the puddle has just changed form and is now water vapour.
The same way the body or human is energy.When you die or so called die you are very much alive and realise there is no such thing as death but just a change of form of the energy you are.Your body like the puddle goes but the essence the energy does not.
Nothing is born and nothing dies -The Holy Bhagwat Gita.
What a compelling thought, I think I got most of it. And I'm not very philosophical at the best of times!
