| Talking about Religion, i remember i came across an amused incident weeks before. One day after getting into a train, i found a seat and sat down. Sitting opposite to me was a boy in a T-shirt with a word, religion, on it. i was, at that time, amused because i thought the word "religion" meant region which i, in fact, mixed them up. Later, when i looked it up in the dictionary, i was quite ashamed since i forgot such simple vocabularies of this kind. The experience reminds me of my religion. It's amusing that i don't worship God, though i'm a Christian. Here, i should let all know i have already left God for a long time. Now i'm neither a Christian, nor a Buddhist. i believe in nothing but faith. Actually, i'm quite serious of religion. i joined and left and again joined and left because i got lots of questions in my mind. i tried to seek the answers or explanations, only to fail. First of all, the problem of pray. People said once you pray, God will hear you and sometimes may give you responses through Holy Spirit. How do i know i'm filled with Holy Spirit? the responses so-called by God may probably thought by ourselves!! Why should we attribute them to God?? Moreover, many people, even the veteran always pray whenever they are encountering difficulties. Let us take an example of having an accident. When the Christian got hurt in the accident, they prayed and said, "oh my dear God, thanks for giving me this accident. Although i got hurt, i learned a lot. Thanks God, Amen." Is that mean we have to thank God even we die? How ridiculous it is!!! More than that, is this God really the truth? Our ancestors used to worship Buddhism, keeping alleging Buddha was the only real God over the world for hundred years. They even made stories (maybe it's true) for the Buddha in order to make it real. However, what is left today? It's just a lie. Nowadays people conceive that Jesus is our real God. Christians make use of Bible to explain all the things, even the creation of the universe, saying that all the things in Bible is real, but no one dare say it can be kept as truth after years, just like the example of Buddhism. Furthermore, in the Bible, it is stated that God made us by simulating His own image. Then, we can infer that our image is perfect because our image is made according to God's perfect one. However, it neglects the possibility of outsiders. It's possible that there're something which are either much powerful or weaker than us. Our image may not be the perfect one! You know, we are not very well-developed up till now. I think it's non-sense and useless to explain things of which we are not capable. We are just animals. We need food, water, air and so on for living. Tens of thousands of years later, we get education and moral standard from whcih we learn the sense of well-being. That's why today's people wear shirts and trousers to cover their bodies, going back to school to obtain knowledge, establishing different systems to mange the society well. Within this long period, people are born, live, and then die. This is the faith and even called a cycle because when one dies, one is born. it's a balance of world or the universe . With short life span, we should try to enjoy, but not to think about questions which are beyond our ability. Take it from me that MAKE HEY WHEN THE SUN SHINES. |
