Welcome to our page (41), religious discussion
one.
May God guide and help me to say the right
things in these religious writings? Some Religious Discussions
The Bible is the most read book in the entire world, it is believed that Moses started to write the Bible, or notes that later on were used to write the Bible. The atheists are able to attack the Bible because there are statements that do not add up.
Some Religious Discussions
Dear readers, as we have mentioned in our
last article of People life and religion, we believe that religions are being
undermined specially when some negative things happen in religious circles;
now, because of these unfortunate happenings, some people like the atheists
make a big fuss about it and attack religions whichever way they can, one of
the first target is the Roman Catholic Church, they also attack the Bible,
since the Bible is the most important religious book that most people read;
they even claim that we would be better off if religions did not exist. We
believe that they might have a good reason for doing so, because if we look at
the news about what is happening in the world today, we will find that there
are some real problems caused by religious people, therefore we cannot blame
the atheists altogether for trying to take advantage from all this negative
happenings; but at the same time they are not helping to solve the problem,
since with their negative views the problem becomes even bigger.
But what are these negative happenings that
we are talking about?
Perhaps, the first and most important
problems that we would like to mention here is about paedophilia in the Christian
religions, which sometimes it is really disgusting; we have mentioned
paedophilia first because it has been there for a very long time, and it
continues to be there and nobody seems to do much to make sure that this does
not happen any-more; then there are also the Islamic extremists that under
pretence kill people in the name of God.
You see with their religious book the Koran
that was written during years of wars when Islam was young, there are some
religious laws that can be easily twisted and therefore killing is not a
religious sin even when there is no war going on. Now, these two main facts are the most extreme
unwanted happenings in the religious world and they should never really happen.
Therefore, mankind needs to think hard and hope that one day we would be able
to find a way about how to work out these religious problems that exist today,
here it may be right to add that perhaps we should start to discuss these
religious problems or dilemmas with our most trusted religious friends, in the
hope of finding a way out from these dilemmas, as we all know a collective
effort is better that just a single person effort, therefore talking to our
friends may be helpful.
Now, having talked in the past to our
religious friends already about this, we have to say that some of our friends
have some real interesting ideas about religions, which we would like to
discuss again and these ideas include also religious books, which they think
need to be discussed, even if it is going to be just religious discussions
religious; you see these discussions in a way would include studying and
discussing religions as well. What we would find out from these religious discussions
we will write them down, and then we would like to publish our religious
discussions very likely here in hub pages, that is when we are ready and have
written them down.
Therefore, today first of all I would like to
say what I have asked our religious friends, we have asked them to concentrate
on and talk or write about religions, we have asked our friends to talk about
religious beliefs on all sorts of religions including religious books, you see
we need to take a closer look at all
religious books and see
if they mean what we have been told they mean, after all we have already said
that we continually are in search of ourselves in a religious way, because we
are studying religions to find our answers; so, let us look together more
closely at all sorts of religions and religious problems, in the hope of
finding the right answer to the existing religious problems, and then, if we do
find an answer, we will suggest to the public what could be done.
---------------------------------------------
In search of our religious ways
Since these religious writings could be said
that it is a study of religions and how they serve humanity, which they do and
we will talk about one of these recent events before we conclude this article;
but now let us continue to look at the problems that we have, so, we believe
that in order to understand our position better, we need to look at a larger
picture than we normally do, so, we need to put everything together whatever we
know about religions, and then start thinking with this wider view, so that we
would not be limited in our understanding of the present religious situation,
from a single point of view of just one religion.
Therefore, let us first of all start with
what we believe and what we know and agree that those things exist, and then we
may be able to see better what could follow later on?
What we know now is this, that we live on
this planet that we call earth, with our solar system and other planets in the
constellation of the zodiac which is part of the Milky Way galaxy, all this we
know and most of us agree that these celestial bodies exist, because they have
been observed to exist many times, but what we don’t know for sure and what we
seem to neither agree or to disagree is this: is there a spiritual force that
guides these celestial bodies? Does God really exist and did God create all
this? And if not how did this all happen?
Of course we know that the Bible says that
God created everything, but not all of us accept creation as it is written in
the bible, in fact today there are lots of people that believe that what is
written in the Bible is not correct; so they rather believe in the evolution of
living things, so here we are going to look for a way that could explain that;
at this point of time we could say that perhaps creation and evolution could
have worked together; perhaps we should look for a way of how could this have
happened and this could be the answer to one of our religious problems, don’t
you agree?
Now these questions that we are asking above
create a lot more questions like: Can we assume that God and Mother Nature
(evolution) could have worked together, and have always worked together, so
they are eternal and everything else is eternal? In other words they have
always been there, and if that is the case, then we could say that the material
seen universe and the unseen spiritual universe could be God and everything
exists within God.
Or should we assume that the existing
energies of the material universe somehow crystallized and so God was formed,
so God is part of the whole universe: all these assumptions are not easy to
answer, so it would be better for us to try to sort what the people of this
world have already accepted, whether they have been partly accepted or
completely accepted, and from this present accepted knowledge work our way out
how to find or form a better religious order, if we could. So let us study and discuss
existing religious books and religious beliefs whichever way we can.
Religious discussions
So, as we have already said in our last
article, we may have to discuss all sorts of religious beliefs including
religious books and the reasons why they have been written the way they have
been written, at the time when they have been written the first time. Then, we
have to ask ourselves about these same religious books and their application at
the time when they were written and again we have to ask ourselves, if these
religious books were to be written today, would they be written the same way or
would they be changed, just because other things have changed? We are saying
this because this might be the reason why religions sometimes seem
inconsistent, for this reason they fail to
satisfy everybody because of the different ways and values that mankind has
today, compared to when they were written in the first place, therefore,
because things have changed then religions need to change also. If we do all
these things then we could be in a better position to understand what could be
done.
So the question now arises, how do we do all
these changes without upsetting the present religious orders too much? As we
all know there are a lot of religious orders, so it is going to be really hard
to avoid upsetting them, but if we want to find a new way even this drawback
needs to be overcome. It might help to tell them that we are writing this article
to find a religious reconciliation for the future benefit of mankind, but even
that might not help much, so we have to try hard to avoid any inconvenience
that we may cause with this new religious vision.
Perhaps if we get together and discuss the
main religious issues in a group, and then write the main issues of the
discussion down, in such a way that they are only friendly discussions and
views, then perhaps we may be able to avoid upsetting those religious groups
that will easily be upset.
As we have already said before in these
religious writings our aim is to go in search of a futuristic religious
theory that
would be able to link all existing religions together, and that is our aim; and
we hope to find it by studying and discussing religions with our religious
friends and other religious groups?
------------------------------------
Important religious event
Anyhow, here we have to say that while we are/were
editing this hub an important religious event has just taken place in Rome, so,
we would like to say a few things about this event, just to show our readers
that religions are still very important today, as it attracts many thousands of
people, so, we can say to the atheist groups, just forget about telling us that
god does not exist, because God and religions are here to stay, because people
need God and religions; you need just to look at this religious event to see
that people need God and religions. So let us describe this event briefly.
This is one of the rare religious events that
happen in the Roman Catholic Church every now and then, this event is the
canonization of two popes and the response of the believers has been enormous,
and now let us sees how the media has reposted it:
These are some quotes from the media report:
The Canonization Mass was celebrated by Pope
Francis (with Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI concelebrating), on Sunday 27 April 2014, in
St. Peter's Square at the Vatican in Rome.
Pope John
XXIII (25
November 1881 – 3 June 1963) and Pope John
Paul II (18 May
1920 – 2 April 2005) reigned as popes of the Roman Catholic Church and the sovereigns of Vatican
City (respectively
from 1958 to 1963 and 1978 to 2005). (End of quotes)
The crowd of followers was enormous and
peaceful just like what any religious event is supposed to be. So one could easily
that this is the greatest show on earth; and whatever the atheists and other
negative groups may say, they are wrong because religions are still helping to
get people together in a friendly way, and therefore they are helping humanity.
Having said that now we have to say that in
our religious writings, sometimes we may sound very negative too, but we are
not doing that to destroy religions, because we are doing that to criticize
those things that the negative groups use to run down religions, so there is a
great difference; we hope you see what we mean.
Anyhow here under is a link to check out this
religious event that we are talking about.
Pope Francis presides over John Paul II, John XXIII historic ...
And now, that we have shown you that even
today people follow religions, let us go back to our religious discussions, to
see how our religious articles could be accepted
----------------------------------
How to be accepted
Since we would like to write some religious
articles, we would like to be accepted from everybody, but it is not going to
be easy; so our main concern here is to write something acceptable to all
religious groups on this planet earth, to do that is not going to be easy, in
fact it is the hardest thing to achieve as far as I know, so I intend to look
back to the main warnings that we have already written in these religious
writings, like that article written for our readers’ peace of mind, where we
explain what we are doing.
Anyhow since I am not so sure how to go about
now, I will pray our lord God Most High to accept this earthly explanation also
as my prayer for help and guidance from God and I am praying thus:
Here I am my Lord God praying for help: I am turning
to anyone who is a believer and believes in God and also other religious
beliefs and I say to them; please read our religious reconciliation writings
fully before you pass judgment. God help me to open the eyes and minds of those
readers and let them see that all these religious writings of, Prayers of
Reconciliation and reconciliation
of the universe, is just an idealistic and futuristic religious theory, which
is trying to find a way if that is possible on how to link all existing
religions together, we would like to do that in the hope that this new
religious theory would be able to bring all existing religious orders together,
and in the hope that this theory will be able to stop all those false religious
killings in the name of God, for the benefit all mankind.
Now that we have explained in this article
some of our intentions and the intention to call on our most trusted religious
friends and other religious groups to find a way about how to discuss these
religious issues, I believe that I have said enough for the time being, and
therefore we will have to leave the other discussions that we will be starting
with next hub. Religious discussions two
May God bless us all?
