Welcome to our article,
Because of what has happened, I am asking myself, is God an illusion?
Dear readers, this happening in the blog is a few years old, but today, we still havend solved this problem, so, I am repeating this article. Anyhow, I am a believer, but I have my doubtful moments, therefore,
I am asking myself, if God is an illusion that humanity has created for various
reasons.
So, to explain myself, let me say what I think about religions; I believe
that there are too many religions in this world, the followers of these
religions they believe that their religion is the right one, therefore, the
other religions must be wrong.
They never think that they are wrong, because religions can be an
illusion, that we the people of this world want to believe in this God as our
father, that can guide and help us if we need help. We believe that, because it
makes us feel better to have a God that looks after us.
I believe that we are crazy, because we want only what is good for us, so,
when there is nothing that we like, we start dreaming about something that is
not there, but it would make us happy if it was there, this wish takes many
forms, one of this is the wish to have a god that would look after us.
Of course, there are other things that influence us; like we want to know
where we come from, why we are here on earth and other things; so, we can
believe in God.
Anyhow, while I am writing this article, I am trying to believe that
there is a god that looks after us, so, I don’t want to admit that God can be
an illusion that we have created ourselves.
You see, I have these up and down of faith, I believe that lots of people
have these up and down of faith, but we end up just the same way we were
before. There are times that I cannot help thinking that I am a believer,
because I have written many articles about religion and God, of course my
articles talk about God the way I see God, or the way I wish God was, but nevertheless
I am a believer that believes in God. But today I am so frustrated that I want
to admit that God is an illusion that humanity has invented in the past,
because of these needs that we feel within us.
Of course, I should say, that I wish God exists, in such a way that God
can connect all existing religions together. I am saying this because of what
has happened in Egypt today, the 25 of November 2017, so let me explain.
------------------------
The Egyptian horrible terrorist attack.
While I am writing this article something horrible has happened in the
Sinai Egypt, about 305 people are dead, because of these religious fanatics
that respect nothing. There are no words to describe all this, we can only say
that what is happening is completely insane; and in my personal views this must
not happen in religious circle. Therefore, I ask myself this question, what is
wrong with religions today? Because what has happened has religious links, and
religions are being used to kill other people that don’t agree with their religion.
Anyhow, let us describe what has happened, starting with a link to this
horrible news, and then some comments straight from the Internet news.
(I
quote from the news)
|
At least 305 people, including 27 children, have
now been reported dead following an attack by Islamist extremists at the
al-Rawdah mosque in Egypt on Friday. According to officials, the 25-30 militants
arrived in SUVs with wielding machine guns and then positioned themselves at
the Mosque's entrance before firing indiscriminately into the crowd. Authorities add that the attackers also
brandished the black flag of terrorist group ISIS.. (End of quote) So, when these horrible things happen, where a
group of people shout “God is Great” (=Allah is Great”) and kill other
religious people, which happen to believe in the same God, or sometimes a
different God, one has to consider the role of these religions. So, because
of what has happened, we must ask ourselves, if there is something wrong with
religions and what can be done? Now
that I have said what has happened and this is affecting my religious
views, I am going back to talk about my doubts about religious beliefs. Because
I start thinking that God is an illusion, since nothing seems to work
peacefully. -------------- My doubts about the
role of religions. I must say that
after what has happened, we may assume that God does not exist, so, God is an
invention of our human mind. Because if God existed the way that He is
supposed to exist, God would not let these people use his name in vain, and
kill other people that worship him, you see, it does not make sense. So, let us talk
about it. Most people don’t want to know the truth, because it is not
convenient to them, they like to live an illusion, because they cannot help
it. Most times they accept the unreal instead of what is real, you see, we
cannot distinguish one from the other, this is what is happening in religion
circles. Having said all
this, one should search for the truth, even when it is not easy to see
the truth, as I have said just here above. My own personal
views about God are that God can exist, but the descriptions of God, is not
correct, therefore, they are illusions that have been written to fulfil our
desires; to fix that, we should be looking for a God that can embrace the
entire world, if we can find that, then, we can find peace and harmony on
earth. I hope you see what I mean. For me God is life, and existing life on earth represents God himself. So, there is no way that God would want to destroy his own life. We will continue
to discuss this issue, in our future articles. But our next article will be about Christmas. because this will make me feel that there is still hope in this world. So, see you in our next article, May God bless us all. Christmas 2017 Has Come and Gone. To see more click on this link, Religions of Today, and My Views. ---------------------------------- |
