A Thought Your Post InvokedA Story by martinRFRIt’s the 'belief' of god that had driven men do horrendous
feats. Not god per se. There is a big difference. I will not elaborate it to
avoid ostracism; I believe you got my point.
Having the religious fervor and zeal will not make you
righteous, well you are but only as confined by the bounds where one’s religion
belongs to. I don’t have to be fanatically religious to claim that I believe in
god and how almighty he is, or to prove that he actually exists. I find it
quite a humor that because I refuse to go to church and hear mass people,
pretty much those I had close ties with, brand me a non-believer. Well I’m a
non-believer of customs, in my words, dull routines which my teachers in grade
school incited on me to learn to read and write, but not of the existence of a
god that made my existence possible. i refuse the concept of a personal god,
presented by mid-eastern practices. But I could not deny the world and the
universe operates in harmony, it might appear randomly to us, but our finite
minds cannot be trusted in terms of comprehending massive systems that
encompasses us. S**t happens as we put it in words. Speaking of harmony, individual
noise we may find discordant but in the mind of a virtuoso, it becomes
melodious. It’s still a feeble attempt to provide that god exists and that he
is the greatest of minds. But even our finite minds, our short spanned
existence, and equally shortsightedness, we still find the world we live in (despite
of heinous crimes, wastes of indescribable disgust among us, leaders wallowing
in greed and lies, death, despair and incurable diseases) beautiful in a
grander scale. Widening the horizon beyond religious restraint, or any social
constraint, even personal ones, the world is indeed beautiful. I actually find
my existence dull, that I came into this world because there are a man and
woman more than two decades ago engaged in coitus relationship, I am here, I exist,
having bliss at times, mostly miserable, in doubt of my own self’s worth and
the government’s goal, and yet, despite all this, I still find dusk or dawn a
pretty sight. God, in personal terms, did not create it out of whim to please
me, what am I, a special one in his eyes? I say, I don’t need any religion or
social norms to point if god exists or not, a single deity or numerous, is god
a he or a she. The very existence I have would not be possible, and so are
yours, if there is no actual source from where it would be from. Random things
happen, the law of probability states so, but the law of possibility, that is
something entirely. Well, I will respect if you are adamant to my claim. Just don’t
claim that you got a good life because your personal god answered your prayers,
it would be illogical to the claim that god is perfect. It is a chink that the
system created by a perfect designer is flawed if the architect would make
revisions after it had been set into motion. (the last statement may seem
cryptic, I intend to do so) © 2013 martinRFR |
