Welcome to our article, Religious discussions four.
Dear readers, in this article, we continue to
discuss religious issues. You see, we can go on forever
arguing about what beliefs can be true and what cannot be true, and does God exist, or is God an invention of the human mind? These questions about
religions have been there for ages, and they will continue in the future.
It is going to be so, because now that the people can learn faster than before, because the computer makes it easy to find the information we want. So, when the people realize that beside their religious beliefs, there are other religions in the world, they will start to believe that religions are man-made, because there are too many religions. Anyhow, I believe that I will continue to write about religions because I want to suggest a way that will explain religions in a modern way. With this decision in mind, I am going to talk to my friends, hoping they can help me understand religions better.
Today most of the western world religions derive from the Bible, so, most people believe what is written in the Bible, and it is hard for people to believe in any other way. but in the past there have been other religions, that were different from the Bible. So, it is wiser to discuss other religions as well.

Calling on my friend Mark.
Anyhow, one day I went to see Mark at his home, knowing that this was his day off from work, when I arrived at his home there was this other friend with him, but anyhow it was John the bloke that read the end of the Bible in the end of time discussions, therefore, the presence of John did not worry me, since John is a religious bloke and religions is what I wanted to talk about. The reason that John was there is that he lives up the street and he was going to the shops past Mark house, he saw that Marl was there and decided to stop and chat with Mark.
When I arrived John was about to leave, but my
arrival stopped him, as Mark invited me and him back inside to have a cup of
tea. We set down and we started to talk, and soon I was talking about a chance
meeting that I had with Gino and Peter the previous day. and I told Mark and John in detail what we said.
Gino and Peter believe that man cannot be created
from plain dirt, because even God must be subject to the laws of physic or natural laws,
and anyhow, if there is a God, then this God will use first the natural laws to
create anything.
And then they came up with this theory, the Hebrews
wanted their God more powerful than any other God, so, they
invented a god so powerful that can create a man from dirt.
Now if you believe that is possible, then for the first
time we have explained what is written in the Bible in a different way. So,
from now on, we must look if we can find other religious writings in the Bible
that can be explained in a different way, and the reason why they have been
written the way they have been written.
Now I want to know what you think about Gino and Peter theory. I believe that you know that I want to write this religious theory that can suggest to the world a new way of seeing God and religion, and has got to be a simple religious theory, because it is easier to write it, and it is easier for the people to understand it.

John reaction to their theory
John reaction to Gino and Peter theory
I
wonder what has gone wrong with Gino and Peter; I don’t know why they are
turning atheist or what these days. I am saying that they are turning atheist
because that is the only way that I can explain what they have said about the
Bible and the creation of man.
Why
are they saying that God cannot create man from dirt, when the Bible says that
he did? Why they try to find all these excuses to change the meanings of the
Bible, when the Bible has been written thousands of years ago from people
inspired from God and people believe that it is so?
Why
should the Jews invent their God, as if God needs to be invented? They should
be ashamed of themselves for saying many profane things about God and the
Bible.
I
believe that they are being brainwashed from the atheists, otherwise they would
not say this. What gave John and Gino this idea that the Jews invented their
own God? And then, to show that their God was a super God they made God create
man from dirt, when the Bible says that God made man as his own imagine? What
has gone wrong with them to turn to atheism.
Here John started to calm down as he had said what he wanted to say about Gino and Peter, so, we knew that soon everything would be normal, and we could have normal discussions.

Discussions with Mark and John
After John had said
what he wanted to say, Mark started talking and said.
I believe that you have had an interesting discussion with Gino and Peter about this creation of mankind in the Bible; but I cannot help thinking that Gino specially when he is with Peter, Gino can tell you some extreme views, therefore, to say that Gino is becoming an atheist is wrong, because I know Gino very well and I can tell you that he likes to exaggerate things, I am telling this specially for you John, because you are worried about this religious situation that Gino has got into; do not worry about it my friend, because everything is going to be normal.
You see, Gino and
Peter have sometimes extreme views, but when reflecting what they have said
this time and other things, it is not that extreme, when we use our logic
reasoning mind.
So, let us reflect
on this situation by using our own imagination; first of all, there have been
always extreme beliefs and views in religious circles, if we look back at
history we will find that religions have helped mankind in many ways,
especially because it brings friendship to people, you see, although religions
are made to follow God with a set of rules, those people that follow them are
bound to discuss these things together, and by discussing and sharing them with
other people they become friends, this is one of the best sides of religions.
But then on the
other side, there are times, when religions have done things so extreme and
terrible. Anyhow, you cannot control people just by being nice to them; people
need rules to follow and somebody that enforces those rules and that is the
reason why religions have been written the way they have been written.
I am sorry to say this
John, but what is written in religious books is not always the whole truth.
Therefore, if Gino and Peter have gone out of the religious way that
everybody accept, and we have been told what to believe; then Gino and
Peter may have got it right this time, because what they are saying is as
extreme as the creation of mankind in the Bible, if we use our own logic
reasoning mind.
We must keep in
mind that there are other major religions that explain the creation of man in
different ways; here I am talking about the Indus religions and I quote.
“Hinduism perceives
the whole creation and its cosmic activity as the work of three fundamental
forces symbolized by three gods, which constitutes the Hindu Trinity or
‘Trimurti’: Brahma - the creator, Vishnu - the sustainer,
and Shiva - the destroyer.”
End of quote. It is said that mankind sprang from Brahma body and there were
four caste, or type of men. As you can see this is different from the Bible
creation.
(Now, let me say something about this Indian religion.
This photo above is how the Indians see their God Brahma 4 heads. To understand this religion is not easy, but you can have some idea if you read The Laws of Manu, where the Indian beliefs of creation is explained.
This photo is The Three Main Hindu gods, in a different set up. End of our explanation).
Here Mark stopped
talking about religion, and then started talking about other things.
Now, reflecting on
what has been said, I believe that Mark is right. This is one of the reasons
why, I like to talk to my friends just to feel more confident, about what I need to say next.
I believe that I
have said enough in this article, so, see you next time, where we are writing
about, religions could be man-made. You see, sometimes I believe that religions have all been set-up to control people.
