Creation and creation of mankind.

WELCOME TO OUR BLOG, RELIGIOUS RECONCILIATION DOC, YOU ARE INVITED. ANYHOW, WE WANT TO MAKE OUR RELIGIOUS BGOGS COMPACT, SO, WE WILL RESTART FROM THE BEGINNING, WITH OUR SHORTER VERSION, HOPING IT WILL MAKE THEM EASIER TO FOLLOW. 

Anyhow, I believe that we are guided from what we have been taught to believe, and our religious beliefs can become modified, when we are exposed to negative religious events, like what is happening today, they make us feel that we must do something about it.

I BELIEVE THAT HUMANITY MUST BE ABLE TO FIND A WAY, HOW TO FIX THESE NEGATIVE OCCURING EVENTS, AND THIS IS WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IN THESE RELIGIOUS ARTICLES.

You see, all religions are based on beliefs, and beliefs can be modified, therefore, if religious beliefs are modified in the same way, one day we can believe in a single God and religion. So, the harmful unbeliever believer can be self-disarmed through modified beliefs. If we can do that, then we can reach universal religious reconciliation on earth. 

Anyhow, because we want to shorten our religious article, some articles will be left out and this article will be shortned. So , if we want to read our original article, you need to visit our Hub Pages articles at this link, Creation and creation of mankind


This is an imaginary photo of when the world was young, as it is described in the Bible Genesis Creation. here we can say that man has a good imagination to invent all those things. 

Creation and creation of mankind 

Welcome to our article, Creation and creation of mankind

Talking about creation. 

May God guide and help me to say the right things.

In this article, we want to talk about creation. Anyhow, when we look at the world history, we find that most civilizations explain creation in different ways. The only thing that seems similar, is that in the beginning there was complete void or chaos.

(One;) The Greek pagan religions say that there was chaos, they describe chaos as a black page with nothing in it, then there are all different stories, some say that the earth and the sky were stirred from the force of love, and from their love the gods, the cyclopes the giants and other beings were born.

(Two); The Indus religions also says that there was chaos, but then this spiritual force started to create a few things. This is described in more details in the Laws of Manu.

(Three;) The Hebrew religion is somehow the same, from nothing, or whatever was there, God created heaven and earth, and the animal and then the people.

Anyhow, most of us that live in the western world, we talk about creation, as written in the Hebrew religious and historic book, today known as the Bible.

Our forebears believed in this Bible creation, and they were happy to follow it. But today we are different from our forebears, we want to prove it to ourselves, if it is right or wrong to believe certain things.

So, we have looked at other people religious beliefs, and we have realized that they explain creation in different ways. Because of these differences, it is possible that the ways that creation has been explained is not right. Therefore, it is also possible that everything happened by itself, as it is claimed in the theory of evolution. In that case, all the religious creations are an invention of our human minds.

Anyhow, here we do not want to argue whether, we believe that the religious creation is right, or evolution is right, we want only to see how most religions explain creation and the creation of mankind. So, let us start with the Bible creation, since we are part of the western world religious beliefs.

Now, we want you to understand that the purpose of these articles is that we want to show you that we need religions, but because terrible things can happen, with today religious set up, religions need to be changed, perhaps, we need to start to believe in a new spiritual system. But let us start by discussing creation as it is today.

------------------------------

Creation according to the Bible. 

So, let us see what the Bible says.

To describe creation according to the Bible, we are asking a layman called Don, and write his answers. Okay Don, what do you think about creation in the Bible?

Don answer

I am a Roman Catholic born and baptized; therefore, I believe in creation according to the Bible. You know the Bible is the word of God, or God’s revelations through the prophets; therefore, I believe that God created the world in seven days, as it is said in the Bible, even if I a day in the Bible may not be one day of twenty-four hours as we know it today, but a lot longer.

Don, can you describe us creation itself please?

As you know; in the beginning God started by creating heaven and earth, it is said that the earth was a formless void and God created everything.

There was darkness over the water of the earth and God said, let there be light and there was light, and God saw that the light was good and divided light from darkness, and he called the light day and the darkness night, the first day of creation.

After the first day of God’s creation in the Bible, God continues to create the rest in the next four days, like all vegetation and animals as we know them and then the sixth day God creates man.

Here Don stopped and then he said.

Now the creation of man is a bit strange, because there are two descriptions in the Bible, the first description says that God said, ‘Let us make man in our own image, in the likeness of ourselves, and then he said let them be masters of everything we have created.

Quote: God created man in the image of himself, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them. End of quote.

Then God blessed them, saying to them, ‘be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and be the masters of everything.

Now, this is not all because the Bible is inconsistent, and there is a second Bible description. I don’t like it but, I am going to continue to tell you. 

------------------------------- 


Looks like that there is a lot to say about the creation of man, and what follows after the creation, in the photo above is Adam and Eva in the garden that God has created for them, here Eva is about to take the forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge. They eat this forbidden fruit, and God banned them from the garden, and the trouble for mankind started. 

 Second description of the creation of man. 

Look Don said, I am a believer and believe most things that are written in the Bible,

But I find hard to believe that this second description of man is right, however, let me tell you this second description of how man was created, you see, to me it seems that it has been added later.

In the Bible it says that at the beginning, there was no wild bush or any wild plant growing, because Yahweh God had not sent rain on earth, nor man to till the soil: I think that it is strange that God needed man to till the soil and for this reason God created man.

In those times, water flowed out of the ground and watered the surface of the soil, so, the soil was wet all the time, now here I want to quote what the Bible says; Quote; Yahweh God shaped man from the soil of the ground and blew the breath of life into his nostrils, and man became a living being. End of quote.

Then Yahweh God made a garden with all sorts of plants including the tree of life and the tree of knowledge and put the man he had made in the garden, God let the man know that he was the master of everything.

Here Don sighed and said, strange as it may seem this is different from the first creation of man, because in the first creation Yahweh God made man and woman together, but here they are created in a different way.

Now the man being master of everything gave names to all cattle, birds and wild animals, but no helper was found for him.

Here the Bible says that Yahweh God made the man fall into a deep sleep, He took a rib from the man and made that rib into a woman; that is why we hear say when man describe woman; this one at least is bones of my bones and flesh of my flesh! And we call her woman because she was taken from man.

This is how the Bible explains creation and the creation of mankind. If you want to read the Bible here is a link; www.catholic.org.au/

We have described creation and the creation of mankind according to the Bible, with the help of Don; now we are going to see how other religions describe creation, to compare the difference.

Comparing The Laws of Manu creation. 

Now that we have written how the Bible describes creation, and the creation of man, let us compare the Bible to the Indus religions, another large religion of the world.

Anyhow, we want to find somebody that knows about Hinduism and The Laws of Manu, to compare with the Bible creation; so, we are going to ask this Indian called Butta about religions.

Finally, we have been able to talk to our Indian friend Butta and other Indian people, we told them that we wanted to talk about the world creation and the creation of mankind, so, we would like to know how the Indian describe creation and the creation of mankind. Anyhow, it took us a while to convince our friend Butta to talk, but it, but in the end, he said:

Look, I don’t know a lot about religions because I am not a Brahman, you see a Brahman is the best person to talk to when you talk about religions; however, I can tell you a few religious things that I have learned during my life. But if you want to know more, I suggest that you read The Laws of Manu, where these things are explained, however, I am telling you what I can.

You see in the Laws of Manu there are these sages that ask the divine Manu these same questions that you are asking me, so, if you want to know how we were created and everything else read this book. Now just to give you an idea how the world started it goes like this:

This universe existed in the shape of darkness, wholly immersed, as it were, in a deep sleep. And then the divine Self existent Svayambhu, appeared with creative powers dispelling the darkness.

Desiring to produce many kinds of beings from his body, he created the waters and placed his seed in them, his seed became a golden egg and from the egg was born Brahman, the progenitor of the world. Brahman being the progenitor of the world created everything else, this is how the world started.

Mankind was started from Brahman, and it is said that in order to protect the universe, the most resplendent one assigned separate occupation to those that sprang from his mouth, arms, thighs, and feet.

The Brahmans who sprang from his mouth, he assigned teaching and studying the Veda, they are like the priests or the house of Levi in the Bible, if one wants to compare them to the western religions. Now, because the Brahmans sprang from Brahman’s and possesses the Veda, he is by right the lord of all creation.

The Kshatriya he commanded to protect the people, to study the Veda and other duties.

The Vaisya to tend cattle, to offer sacrifices, to study the Veda and other duties

The occupation of the Sudra is to serve meekly the other three castes.

Our creation talks conclusions. 

Now let us talk briefly the pagan religions, that were the main religions in the western world before Christianity, this religion had many gods and goddesses and many other things and beliefs. Anyhow, here is a hub that talks about this, hub.me/agotI

What we have written above are the three main religions of the world, and it is worth to compare them to learn about ourselves. It is necessary to learn all of them, plus we must consider evolution, and other religions that explain in their own ways the creation of mankind. So, we wonder which one of these theories is the closest to the truth.

Anyhow, we can add here that there is no creation in the ancient pagan religions. These religions say very little about creation, and when they say anything is very vague; In Greek and Roman mythology it seems that creation started with Mother Earth and the sky, somehow the god Eros was born from them, and he started to stir thing up and most things were created from this chaos that Eros created and many other strange things.

Here we conclude, that if we consider all creations, we believe that evolution has the upper hand, but this is not to say that God does not exist. Because we believe that God exists and also other spiritual being exist, as we are going to write in our theory of Reconciliation of the universe.

Anyhow, we wish that there is a supernatural power that links all religions together. This is what we are going to talk about in our next article. Reconciliation part three . See you soon.
