Straight off the bat I will say that I don’t believe in any one singular omnipotent being as the Theist’s believe, I believe that to be dangerous and unfair. Also I must admit that I feel it’s an inaccuracy for Atheist’s to state that there is “no God” and I shall explain why.
Similar to the way a very young child or a primitive tribe might perceive a thunderstorm, power is always a comparative element to any one entities existence. For the child to grow to adult hood similar to a primitive tribe that shall grow to better knowledge and wisdom, the perception of the thunderstorm becomes far more relative and thus finds itself a neat and tidy partition in our minds, no longer causing that thunderstorm to be so scary or perceived as something to revere.
Similar to this, when we review certain situations of events either past, present or predicted, often (as even the Atheist will admit to saying) we acknowledge in literature of such events by expressing our awe in words such as “Biblical Proportions” or “Wrath of God” so on and so forth, there within I believe lies the key to this.
If one anoints awe causing events as previously described, we have inadvertently created a partition of comprehension with a sense of a value that we recognise most to be able to comprehend or “deal with” the enormity of the situation. We simply label the moment as one thing of such a higher level of all power until such a time when adaption, knowledge and comprehension allows us to see the event as something far much more relative, the range being anything from defeating a phobia right up to seeing a nuclear explosion as nothing more than an expensive science experiment.
So thus this brings me to my point that to believe in only one God or one all powerful deity to be constantly feared and revered, this would essentially rid us of any chance to comprehend greater and more powerful entities, events and creations leading the human race to an ignorant existence, limited of exploration and never learning from ones mistakes, if the outcome is to fall to ones knees and beg forgiveness from something we don’t rightly understand.
However, simultaneously, saying that there is no God at all, I feel does not allow for one to accept power in a spiritual sense. It’s all well and good to occupy exploration within the fields of science and scientific theory but one thing without the other is of course an imbalance. Now it is widely prophesised that in the becoming of the Age of Aquarius, mankind is supposedly to have a great spiritual awakening, this obviously leading itself wide open to interpretation, however, I believe it is that interpretation we know very little about and I feel that the imbalance within humanity and mankind’s existence exists and extends from that ignorance.
That very imbalance and ignorance that allows us to kill or hate other human beings in the name of “God” and that same imbalance that allows science to create some of the most lethal weapons on Earth, yet many dangerous diseases are left to go on infecting without an available cure. So we have two extreme ends of a scale of mankind, one group science loving and the opposition to this God fearing, both of which might I add are utterly incapable of finding mutual cohesion.
So thus I conclude and state as to what I believe, is that God is in fact a label to a jar of which its contents we know very little if nothing about, if be it only in a spiritual sense which in turn is only faith based, the basis of which is a partition of a level of personal reverence on the foundation of individual relevance, so thus I state that if we are to ever comprehend God then Atheist and Theist factions must find a cognitive ability to address science exploration with spiritual understanding, there within lies the key to peace and comprehension, the choice is ultimately yours.

I think the overall meaningfulness of life makes the real' argument.
ReplyDeleteN'est-que pas que la solitude elle-mème eveille quelque attente fébrile? Voici l'entrée, vide, discrètetement illuminée comme une musée nocturne – la terasse, avec ses torchères ondoyantes par un soir d'Avent étrangement doux – laissant le vestibule et les murmures de voix – la chambre immaculée immaculée et la musique de danse derrière le mur – et le bar à cocktails mondains – le bassin où le nageur s'entrâine, longeur après longeur, il en n'a jamais assez, il doit y mettre de sien – enfin, tournant vers le haut au coin du sombre couloir vient la fille noire et pâle, altière, déterminée et de style épuré, ainsi qu'un moderne avion de chasse suédois.

SONNET XXXIX FOR KATIE
I went downtown, saw Katie in the nude
on Common Avenue, detracted soltitude
as it were, like a dream-state rosely hued,
like no one else could see her; DAMN! I phewed;
was reciprokelly then, thank heaven, viewed,
bestowed unique hard-on! but NOT eschewed,
contrair-ee-lee, she took a somewhat rude
'n readidy attude of Sex Prelude; it BREWED!
And for a start, i hiccuped "Hi!", imbued
with Moooood! She toodledooed: "How queued
your awe-full specie-ally-tee, Sir Lewd,
to prove (alas!), to have me finely screwed,
and hopef'lly afterwards beloved, wooed,
alive, huh? Don't you even DO it, Duu-uuude!"

Chica de Léon, en tus ojos marchan las requétés,
no ya están demasiado ejercitados a justo esto...
- Puedes que nos hayáis metido no muy buena acompañía?
- Mi obrero, quien ha hecho un jornada excelente
relata sobre las aventuras fatales de su abuelo
y sus compinches cuyo piedad estaba levemente católico;
hicieron sopa de clavos, sangre de clero y corpus christi,
se unió despuéz a la hez de Colunna Durruti. Tu ries!
no sobremanera respetuosa de las aberraciones republicanas,
según parece no tampoco del todo indiferente a vino y flamenco...
- Está un noche amigable entre otros en algun sitio,
en alguno de nos cada vez más remotos jardines Espanolas.

Consider Sex and time, procreation, reincarnation. Trigonometry! I envisage the time axis as the repetitive tangens function. Do you see what I mean? What can be tentatively derived from this notion? Clue: orgasm AND birth pangs at tan 0.

God did NOT create man in his own image, mankind creates gods in his own image, in an attempt to support and justify his own agenda.
ReplyDeleteGod did NOT write the bible, mankinds' own distant ancestors wrote the bible, at a time when very few people could read or write.
Mankind is the only species on the planet that finds it nessary to question its' own existance. An animal knows only that it IS.
Thus, I conclude that the whole concept of spiritualty is based on the insecurities of the species, and NOT on any factual eveidence of a divine entity or creator.
