Religions are here to stay

WELCOME TO MENFRANCO RELIGIOUS RECONCILIATION DOC; YOU ARE INVITED TO BROWSE AND TO TAKE PART IF YOU WANT, SO THAT YOU CAN SAY SOMETHING IN THE RELIGIOUS FIELD DISCUSSED. IF YOU FIND SOMETHING PERSONALLY INTERESTING LET US KNOW. just a short comment will do if you do not have much time.

Welcome to my post, Religions are here to stay
-
I need to say first of all that this four articles were going to be on Hubpages, but some publishing problem prevented me to do that so now I am going to publish them as posts here. The four articles are: Religions are here to stay; Religious common beliefs; How can we link religions together and How should we describe this new God on the universe.
-
Religions are here to stay
-
I and my religious friends have been talking about this religious subject many times, we have been talking also that according to the atheists religions may soon be a thing of the past, but we don’t agree with them for many reasons, so, I am going to write here a few things to show them that their understanding if religious issues are wrong.

We have reasons to believe that religions are here to stay because man needs religions and therefore also God, just the way that religions are today, if that is going to be possible to have in the future, if that is not going to be possible then we need to do something about it.  

What can we do to help religions today?                                                                                     

As you can see we have already discussed many issues in our previous hubs, therefore now we need to come up with a solution for these religious problems that exist today.

Since we have seen in the history books and religious books, and also stated time and time again that religions have changed in the past because it became obvious that those religions did not work anymore, today we have to assume that we are facing the same religious problem, so, what can we do about religions today one may ask?

By discussing with my religious friends we have come to this belief that we need to collect all religious knowledge that we have today, and then try to make sense of all religious beliefs on a way that makes sense to all religions together. We believe that this is not an easy thing to do, but at the same time, it needs to be done if we want to solve these existing religious problems that the religious world is facing today.

So how do we start to make this happen?

I suppose, we may have to accept a theory that everything is possible to do, if we are willing to try hard enough to find a solution to it; for these reasons, I suppose that there have to be a lot of assumptions in this sort of religious theory that later on need to be explained to the readers and believers, But just now, let us see now how can we start to make this happen.

I suppose that we can start by assuming that all religions are at least partly true, and then we can choose the best part of these religions and put them together in a way that make sense to the people of today; religions also need to be explained in a way that they have to make sense from now on, because from now on everything that does not stand up to logic human reasoning will be rejected from humanity.

Music and Religious
Reconciliation from the Vatican
-
This is an old post that I am re-posting again, because I think it was a good post; anyhow this post is going to talk about works of reconciliation from the Vatican, as it seems that the Vatican is doing its best to solve today religious problems. it is also the continuation of blogs posted before, and other matters that have come up recently:
In a post in my blog Religious Reconciliation my fried Frank express his concerns about religious matters, he is saying in his own clear ways that he agrees with me with most religious matters, because his concerns are mostly like my own concerns on religious matters. So, now I feel relieved from his agreement, so, I am more willing to continue my search about my own idealistic
world of Religious Reconciliation and how to achieve that, no matter how long it is going to take me to get it started with the right idea.
My friend Frank believes that religions are going to face hard times in the near future; and this is part of what he wrote in his last post:
-
I don’t need to question myself which side to take, I know that I am a religious person and that I will follow religion, as there is a deep religious belief within me. I know that at this point of time atheists seem to be able to win the case, if we look only at simple ways of reasoning, because what they say stands up to reason.
But I believe also that if all religions find a way to get together, then the atheists could not win the case, because their case is based mostly on the fighting that those religious extremist exercise, so we need to find a way how all existing religions could live in a peaceful way first of all.
Since I have opened this blog, I have always thought that if I had some religious links, which express the willingness of any religious leader to find the way to religious reconciliation I would post them in my blog.
Today I have some good news about that, because I received an email with links from the Vatican, with request and permission that I could use those links in my blog.
-
Those links are about music from the Vatican and I am posting then hereunder, so that anybody can see and hear and enjoy what is going on. I hope they work.
-
Thanks to Peter Ruppert from the Vatican, here are the links including some explanations:
-
Music project on behalf of Geffen/Universal.
The project is called Music From The Vatican link below;

http://www.musicfromthevatican.com/

The album is entitled Alma Mater and is recorded in the honour of the Virgin Mary.
To find out more about this project immediately, please view this Youtube channel:

http://www.youtube.com/musicfromthevatican

Feel the grandeur of god’s creation on earth; see what they do at the Vatican, feel the great love that the Virgin Mary has for us all and many other things, it is very exciting and beautiful, so it is worth to give it a go.
I have to say that what interests me most is the fact that the pope is going to meet another religious leader, and in doing so he may start the process of reconciliation.

God bless you all.

My prayer to God
 -
My dear readers, I hope you understand my desperate position after reading my last post, Praying in anguish, so I hope you understand why I am driven to write, My prayer to God, I am sure that if any of you were in my position you would do the same, therefore if what I am writing here becomes boring forgive me because; I am praying to God for a personal miracle or grace.

-

This is my prayer to God.

Our Father in heaven, to you I turn God Most High, and in my great distress and with pains in my heart I start to pray with all my heart, my mind and my soul; I am praying to you Almighty Merciful Father because I am in a desperate situation and I need your help right now, because there is serious illness in my family.

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy-Spirit, I am praying to you Almighty Father; I pray to you because I know that for you everything is possible, even those things which for the best people of this world seem impossible to achieve. So I hope that in your mercy you would hear this painful and desperate prayer of your humble servant who in pains turns to you for help, in the hope that you would hear my prayer and help me by granting me your grace, and if or when you do then my pains and despair would turn into joy and I will thank you for the rest of my life with all my heart. I am turning to you for help Heavenly Father, because I believe that only you can help me and no one else can, since for you everything is possible.

You see, nowadays I have a daughter, who is sick, this is the same daughter that I have been talking about in my previous post, Praying in anguish; now, the doctors are trying their best to cure her of her illness; but they only succeed in controlling a bit of her illness.

I love my daughter very much and when I see her sick my heart cries in pains. I wish I could talk to her and say what is in my heart, but I have to refrain in case I make things worse.

But really I would like to say to her: My heart aches for you my darling child, and as I think of you my heart cries for you. Dear me, dear me, dear me! How I love you my darling child! And although now you are a grown up while you are sick you are my little child again, and this is how I will feel to the end of my days, because deep within my heart you are a little bit of me living away from me, and therefore there is this force from within me that pushes me to help you, since you are a part of me. I feel that your pains are my pains, your despair is my despair, your fears are my fears and I will do anything to help you, no matter how hard and painful it might be for me.

Now because I love my daughter as she is a small part of me, I want to help her no matter what; but having done all I could do in this world to help her, and finding that I am not able to make her well again makes me feel so helpless and sad, very sad indeed:

So in my despair, I can’t help asking myself why this illness had to happen to her, to her who is still so young and beautiful, and she could have enjoyed life very much at this time of her life if she was healthy; but instead she has been sick for a long time and with no end of being well in sight. So, in my torment I continually ask myself what I could do to help her, because I would do anything to make her well again, but all earthly option to help her seem to be in vain and exhausted.

But my heart which loves her so much will never surrender, so, I am driven to do the impossible. So, in my despair I turn to God and pray; because in my heart I believe that only God who is our Heavenly Merciful Father and mighty overall can help her to be healthy again, as young girls of her own age should be. So, here I turn to you God Most High and pray you with all my heart, my soul and my mind to heal her for good; I am praying to you because I believe that for you Almighty Father everything is possible, since all you have to do are to say the words and it will be done.

You see, because these days I am in great personal distress, I am praying from the bottom of my heart, my soul and my mind to our Heavenly Father hoping that through his love and mercy he would help me and my family. 

Almighty Father I have always prayed and I am still praying in the hope that when I need your help, I would be able to call on your great love and mercy that you have for us humans, and through the love of the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior, you would hear and answer my prayers for help in your own ways.

I am praying in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, whom you sent down to earth to help humanity understand your will, to fulfill the scriptures, and to redeem us from our original sin, and then by sacrificing himself as you wanted he has redeemed mankind and opened for us a way, which today is enabling us to come back to you.

Father, hear my prayer, forgive me my sins, allow me to be your servant and bless me; so that, I would be worthy to pray to you and be heard, and now help my daughter to be healthy again; Amen.

On Mount Sinai Moses meets Yahweh as a burning bush




-
PRAYING IN ANGUISH
-
This is a true life story that is going to show you how God works in mysterious ways; it is a true story that I have lived in my life, it is about one of the darkest days of my life and I have called it anguish or praying in anguish, because it is the only way that could be called.
Anguish of a father that fears for the safety of his daughter.
As I have said above, this is a true life event that I am writing in here, which is a dreadful and sad life event that I have lived during my life, there is also another version of the same event, which is going to be written in Frank’s writings, but that version is a more person to person talk. But this version here because it’s the religious section, I am going to write about what went through my mind at the time of this event in religious terms. And how I prayed God with all my heart to help me, so that I could find my way out of such a dreadful situation: So that I could find my daughter and bring her back safely home.
So, let me tell you what went through my mind and what I wanted to tell my daughter.
“The day that you left me and went away, it was the darkest day of my entire life,
I was so scared for you that my heart cried, and not knowing that else to do I started to pray. And I prayed and prayed with all the strength that was within my heart for your safety.
To God our Father the creator of all the world I prayed, calling on His mercy and asking Him to bring back my beautiful daughter Veronica safely home;
And this is how I prayed to God our Heavenly Father:
Yahweh (Jehovah) God of the Israelites, that in the Bible your greatness is so well described, Father and Creator of all living things, You that know about anything and everything, to you I turn and to your great mercy I appeal.
Father have mercy for me and my sick daughter, my sick daughter that ran away from me because she was very sick and she didn’t know what she was doing, I fear so much for her safety because she might die, and I don’t know how to find her and help her now. So help me Father to bring my daughter back to me safely home.
I partly blame myself for this happening, because I haven’t been able to see properly the state that she was in, and although there were some signs of her sickness, I didn’t understand them for what they were, and therefore I didn’t try hard enough to prevent the happening. It has also been because I have been forced to be the weak leader of the family, since my wife usually opposes me and she tries to run everything her own way, so I have to let it go and let my children do what they want.
But what else could any other father do in my place? With a family like mine and every member headstrong, and with my wife that always tries to undermine my command, sometimes I feel lost.
So, I pray and ask you Heavenly Father to help me, and through the cosmos of the universe send me a sign. So I pray you Father to help me, and after my prayer, I will see what comes through my mind, and whatever comes through my mind, I will believe that it is your will Heavenly Father.
And this is what came through my mind:
Rise up your staff and transmit your command, let all your sheep know what you want them to do, since you are their father and their shepherd as God intends you to be, therefore God has given you the full command. So here is what God through the cosmos will suggest to you.
Be just, be brave, be firm, and do not give in: But be also kind, loving and merciful at the same time, and guide your sheep always safely home, that’s what God wants you to do all the time.
Back to talk about the dreadful and sad event of my life now I shall return, so that I can tell you the outcome of my prayers. Because I prayed so hard on that very dark day of my life, and with all the strength of my heart prayed to God saying; Father help me to bring back Veronica safely home, because if I lose her I could even die, and that will be the end of everything for me.
And if that happens, then I will not be able to write any more what I had in mind to write, which is about your greatness in my religious section of my writing Heavenly Father, and these writings I would like to call, Reconciliation of the Universe. So please, Father I pray you to help me to bring Veronica back home safely and make her well again, and I promise You that I will write Reconciliation of the Universe if that goes according to your will.
Therefore, to whosoever reads my writings, this is what I promised God to do when my daughter went astray, and I indent to keep my promise unless God Our Father, in its own ways lets me know that this is not His will.
I believe in God that’s in heaven, and I believe that He really helped me find my daughter Veronica. Because the day after that she went away a strange thing happened, a taxi driver rang my home concerned about Veronica and the state that she was in, as she seemed to him that she was very much confused and didn’t know what she was doing. So we gave some instruction to the taxi driver, to take her to a certain safe place, and then off I went to find a way on how to bring her back home.
To me the taxi driver that rang my home has been the means that God has used to bring my daughter back home. Because the taxi driver being a complete stranger could just have thrown my daughter out of the taxi and forget about her, but God suggested to him to call my home, and that is how God helped me find my daughter.
So to God Almighty I owe many thanks, because in his mercy He gave me the means to bring my daughter back home, and now we have to try to make her well again. So, I have reasons to believe that if I pray to God, then God will help to make my daughter well again.
So, let me find the way and the courage to pray God and say what is deep within my heart; let me be able to pray and tell God the great personal pains that are within my heart at this moment, so that, in his mercy God may hear my prayer and grant me my request.
Now let me say this, to whoever reads my religious writings I want to make this very clear that what I am writing here is my personal prayer to God Most High, who is my only hope for a better life for my sick daughter; as no one else could or would be able to do what I am going to ask God to do for her except God himself. So, I believe that I have to do something very special for God, so that God may take notice of my problems and help me. Therefore this is one of the main reasons why I am writing my religious writings of Prayers of Reconciliation and Reconciliation of the Universe, as it is a prayer to God Most High, in the hope that God would take notice of my plight and help me.

Religious subject required


In order to explain the last two posts: What my soul is telling me, what my heart, my mind and body is telling me, what list of religious subject is required?
I believe that in order to make my writings easier to understand, I have to divide these lists of subjects in groups, and there will be at least four main groups of items to be talked about:
I believe that apart from what I have written above, I need to collect all the other personal writings in single groups as much as I can, so that they would make sense to the readers.

First main group:
(1) First of all I need to write my present personal reasons, feelings happenings and views, which are able to show my readers how and why I am being driven today to write these religious writings, that is to say: What are the forces nowadays that drive me to write my religious beliefs?
(2) I need to write and explain to my readers how I became a real religious believer; that is to say: What were (or have been) the forces that have made me become a religious believer?
(3) I need to write about the ways which I am working on, in order that I can make my religious writings worthwhile and easy for everybody to understand;
(4) My dear reader; In order to describe these subjects above, I may have to start from many different points of view, and be forced to go through many different ways to explain my views; but they will all lead to the same conclusion, which is that nowadays we definitely need to find a new way for World Religious Reconciliation.

Second main group:
(1) Religion has always existed since the beginning of recorded time, therefore, it would be important to show that people have always had the need to believe in some sort of religions, and what were those primitive religions like?
(2) In order to support a general view about religion and prove that we need religion, I ought to write about it, and try to explain it in several possible ways.
(3) I need to learn or even just read about most of the world religions, so that I may be able to compare them to my Roman Catholic religion. And after that I need to write about what I have learned from them, be it right or wrong.

Third main group:
(1) Present days’ religions and the many reasons why they fail to keep all religions together;
There is this need to review religions in a modern way, so that the whole world could believe into one single unified religion, and therefore, they will have to stop fighting each other.
(2) And then, I have to write about my own theory on how we could solve all those religious problems, in order to bring to the world a new way to World Religious Reconciliation.

Fourth main group:
What can be done to set things right: Theory of Reconciliation of the Universe.

MY ANSWERS: TO THE FIRST MAIN GROUP SHORT LIST.
First main group; answers for first reason.
What are the forces nowadays that drive me to write my religious beliefs?
Deep from within my soul, my heart and my mind, I feel driven by God nowadays to write my religious beliefs for the benefit of future generations.
I am an old man now and I have seen lots of things during my life, I have learned through the ups and downs of my life many things great and small; but the greatest thing of all that I have learned is that mankind needs to believe in God and religion, it has been so since the beginning of recorded times, because without religion life may seem void and not worth living. I will return to discuss religions in more details later on in my writings, as now I have some other important things to tell you.
So, now that I am an old and wise man, I want to say what I believe in, and so, contribute to the future betterment of mankind by writing my religious life learning as much as I can.
I have observed and I have learned during my life, that people usually turn to God and pray only when they find themselves in a helpless position, and the more they find themselves in a desperate and helpless position, the more they will pray God for help, especially if there is no other way out for them except that they can pray God, pray and pray.
Being in this helpless situation has also happened to me several times during my life, therefore, I have been praying God so many times, in the hope that God would help me out. And, it so happens that nowadays, (when I wrote this article) I am in one of the most desperate situation of my life, and therefore I feel that I have no choice but to continue to Pray God, pray and pray, hoping that God would hear my prayers and grant me my request.
My dear readers; by now I am sure that you start asking yourself what’s the matter with me, and why I have not yet fully explained to you what is the matter with me, and why I keep going back saying that a religious man in trouble prays to God prays and prays. I have been saying this because that is really what’s deep within my heart right now, which is that I am about to pray and ask God for my own personal help for me, including my sick daughter and my family; and I believe that in his mercy God may even grant me my requests.
But now, before I start praying God and request what I want right now, let me tell you the story from the beginning, as it is one of the most important happenings of my life, which have driven me to write my religious writings. This story will show you how God works in mysterious ways, and in a strange way God guides you to do what He wants.

WELCOME!
You are invited to my post, what my heart and mind is telling me; here you can browse as long as you like and take part in the discussions that follow.

What my heart and mind is telling me
-
WHAT MY BODY AND MIND IS TELLING ME.
WHAT MY HEART AND MIND IS TELLING ME.
-
In my previous post I was talking about what my soul is telling me, now let me talk about earthly things, my body, my mind and my heart. So, let me start briefly from the beginning of our life, and let me say what we (mankind) should really be doing about ourselves during our lives, we should really observe what is happening around us and learn from it, above all learn all those things that change during one’s own life.
Now, if one thinks about all the changes that take place during one’s life, one could say that life is never still and keeps changing all the time. So, life could also be compared to a butterfly metamorphosis, which is a cycle that goes around and then starts all over again.
When a child is born, he (here he means also she, I, us and they) seems so innocent he looks like an angel, and he also thinks many innocent things; so one is inclined to think that there is a connection between the new born child and heaven and the angels, because it feels as if he has come from heaven above.
When a boy grows up, he will start learning and thinking according to what his parents will teach him, I am sure that his parents will teach him religious things and these teachings will reinforce his own inborn religious feelings, and somehow he will try hard to live his life in a religious way as he has been thought until he grows older.
But when he becomes a grown up man, he will becomes interested very much about earthly life and sex, this is only natural if he is a normal healthy man, he becomes interested very much about his human friends and what they do, and he will follow them no matter what they do, usually it happens that young healthy people are arrogant and believe only in themselves while they are young and strong, so, they tend to ridicule their mates if they show any sign of weakness. Religion for these young people is a sign of weakness; so he is trapped from these vicious circumstances, and therefore he could not and would not follow religion very much while he is in the company of his friends, even if in his heart he is a very religious man.
This way of life will usually last for a very long time during his life, in fact it may last all his life until he becomes old, weak and vulnerable; accept if during his life it happens that some hardship strikes him and he feels that he is in danger and needs help, but there is nobody on earth available or able to help him, and in his desperate position he turns to God and prays, as there is nothing else that can help him. This is the way that most men behave during their lives; they will turn to God and religion only when they are in danger and desperate.
But when a man becomes older and wiser he feels the need to question his own behavior about religious beliefs, so, by reasoning within himself he comes to the conclusion that it would be better for him if he returns to his religious beliefs.
There are a few reasons for a man for returning to religion at his old age, which are:
(1) He might have been a believer all his life deep within his heart, but people around him were not religious people, so during his younger life he lived as a non believer, because he felt that he would have been ridiculed from his friends, if he had admitted to them that he was a real believer. But now, because he is an old man he wouldn’t and doesn’t care about what other people think about his religious beliefs, and therefore he comes back to believing in religion openly.
(2) He might have been born in a family whom didn’t practice religion, and therefore during his younger life he did not believe in God and religion at all, because nobody had thought him religion when he was young. But during his life he has met some religious people, who while conversing have expressed their religious beliefs, this has helped him learn about God and religion. So now, he has become religious and practice religion openly in his old age.
(3) He might have been born in a family of non believers, because the members of his family were all born in this circle of non believers, which would openly ridicule or harm anybody that was a religious member, therefore he has lived all his life as a non believer.
But now he has grown old and he knows that soon or later he will have to die, this knowledge of his pending death makes him look back at the way of life he has lived till now; he starts thinking if it was right the way he has lived his life as a non believer, and deep within his heart he becomes scared of what he has done. He asks himself: What about if there is life after death? I know that my body death is inevitable no matter what I do. So, is there any way that I can save at least a bit of myself? And at his old age he starts believing in religion, in the hope that he can save himself.
(4) Whatever reasons have given rise to religious beliefs within a man during his lifetime; those same reasons now are pushing this man to believe in God in his old age. Not only will this old man believe in God and religion; but deep within his heart he will feel the need to pass his religious knowledge to future generations.
(5) These religious facts that I have written above definitely apply also to me. So, now that I am an old man, and therefore, I have learned many religious things during my life time, I feel the need to carefully write what I have learned down for future generations.
To achieve this I need to make a list of subject, which could and would be similar to the list of subject that apply at the end of the chapter called, What my soul is telling me. So in my next post I will be writing about the list of subject required.
