Welcome to our page (36) Humanity and religions
May God help and
guide me to say the right religious things?

Humanity and religions
As we have seen in
our previous article, where Stephen Hawking, physicist argues in a new book;
God did not create the universe and the "Big Bang" was an inevitable
consequence of the laws of physics. Here we may have to give Stephen Hawking
that it is possible what he is saying is right, but not withstanding this
Stephen Hawking theory we the people may continue to argue otherwise, because
we have always needed God, as it seems to me that this is an inborn need that
we have, therefore we will continue to search for God existence or evidence,
even knowing that in reality God may not exist.
Anyhow in this
article here of humanity and religions, what we are going to write is about the
need that we have for a god and religions, we are going to discuss also our
studies of religions, you see, while we are writing and discussing we learn a
bit more about mankind and the need that we have for religions. Therefore, we
are going to argue our religious case in the following way:
Since the beginning
of recorded time and perhaps even before that, mankind seems to have had this
need to believe in a deity, because they needed a god and religion to guide and
protect them, for this reason they have had many problems, first to find the
right god and religion for themselves for a start; you see, firstly they had to
find the right God for themselves and then they had to write their God’s laws which
was what they would believe about their God, and then they had to follow their
God’s laws.
Why mankind needs a
God you may ask? Well, let us explain this to you the way that we see it; you
see, we believe that, Man needs God mostly because they may turn to God for
help if and when they need help, as we have said above and also written in our
hub, Man needs God, and at the same time, if there is a
real God, God needs man also, otherwise what is a god good for if there are no
believers?
Therefore, because
man need God and god needs mankind to believe in God as well, it becomes a fair
exchange because both benefit from this exchange, that is why God and religions
need to be the way that they are today, or at least we have to try to keep them
as close as possible as they are, even if we have to make some changes just to
keep religions in touch with the ever changing needs of mankind.
Now that we have
stated this need that we have for religions, we have to add that sometimes we
have doubts about the entire religious issue, here we feel that also our
readers may have their doubts, so, let us say something to our readers to make
them understand that they don’t need to worry; if they worry let them read that
section in our previous articles, “for our readers’ peace of mind”.
-----------------------------------------------
Humanity needs to review religions
Since humanity
needs to review religions; I am praying God for guidance
Our Father in
heaven, to you I turn God Most High, and I start to pray with all my heart, my
soul and my mind. In the name of The-Father The-Son and The-Holy Spirit I am
praying, hoping that the ever present guiding force of the Holy Spirit on earth
you would guide and help me; So that, I would be able to write these religious
writing as humanly as possible according to your will. Father, hear my prayer
and guide me! Amen.
Now that I have prayed let us continue; as we
have said many times already, we seem to argue too many times about religions,
whether there is a god or not that created the universe, and many other religious
things for that matter? We just have to look at everyday news to find something
that shows religions in a bad way? Therefore, this state of religious
happenings as they are today cannot go on forever just the way they are, it
becomes obvious just by following the news that mankind is using religions to
find ways to use them for their own personal advantage or small groups
advantage and not for the entire world community, as it is supposed to be used
and that is no good.
So, in these religious writings we have to
try to explain what is the general point of view nowadays about God and
religion? Therefore, first of all we have to assume that God really exists and
then ask questions if we can; for instance, why we find it hard to be good
souls in God eyes and follow God’s ways? And finally suggest what could be the
best way for us to find our way back to the true existing living God and good
religions. Here we may even ask; what is the right way to world religious
reconciliation?
Today, as we have seen from the previous hubs
that we have written, God as we have known for thousands of years is being
attacked from atheists who are clever people in their own ways, so, it is only
a matter of time before God and
religions will need
to change in order to survive. We know that this is the hardest thing to do for
religions, because religions are just beliefs and beliefs cannot change easily,
if beliefs would change easily then those beliefs that you have believed in for
so long are worth nothing.
So, what could we do one may ask?
Answer; we may have to find a way about how
we can link this present days religions to the future religions, which would be
so constructed that they would be able to bridge past, present and future
religions, you may think this is outrageous idea and I am out of my mind to
suggest it; but if you know about old religious beliefs and their history, then
you will see that what we are suggesting here is not out of place, because
religions have always slowly changed, so there is nothing to be worried about,
if they slowly start to change again, as long as these changes are made in a
way that would be acceptable to the religious public.
What could we do then you may ask?
Well, perhaps the question would have been
more to the point if we would have asked. What sort of God or religion can
achieve all that?
Perhaps it could work if we would believe
that there is only one God throughout the universe, and this God is the life
giver of the whole universe, so, we believe that God is the life giver to every
living thing, and therefore there is definitely a link between God and our life on earth,
even if this extended belief would be different from what the Bible is teaching
us today, it still would be a religious belief about God and this new link
would be able to connect all religions together, we hope you see what we mean.
Now, let us just assume that we have been
able to find a way how to make this new religious link, and with this new
religious link we are able to
link the past the present and the future of religions with no difficulty and
they would work in harmony from that moment on, once they have been written and
the public has accepted them.
But, here we have also to assume that because
of this new found link, which in realty has always existed in nature but we
were not able to see because we had fixed religious ideas; now that we have
found it we should not assume that humanity and God should really run in a
parallel way and agree with each other all the time, because that’s not the
case at all as we all know, just because everything changes with the passing of
time, and what seems perfect today in the future may not be as perfect.
Let us look at some examples; for example,
some of us believe that in the past God really came down to earth, because in
His mercy He wanted to help the Israelites, so, during that time God in his
wisdom gave the Israelites this general rule called, the Ten
Commandments for them
to follow. Nowadays all the people that are connected to the Bible, or to a
similar religion more or less follow these Commandments, but we are too many
different people in this world and we have too many different ideas and rules,
and a strict single rule can never satisfy us all, so it could be a good idea
to widen those rules, so that they could apply to the rest of the world, so
that the rest of the world could live in harmony with each other as well.
----------------------
WAYS TO RELIGIOUS RECONCILIATION
The need to observe
and learn in order to find the way for religious reconciliation
Reflecting on what
we have just said, one has to admit that all God’s rules, because they have
been written in a way that they should look like as if they are heavenly driven
they take into account mostly heavenly things only; but we in this world sometimes
find those rules hard to follow because we are living on earth and therefore we
are earth bound. So, our main task while we are writing here is to find a way
on how we could guide humanity closer to God’s ways, while at the same time we
have to talk in a earthly way, so that humanity would be able to understand us
and follow our religious writings and perhaps agree with them.
You see during my
life I have made my own observations, I have done that just because I like to
observe many things, therefore I have also made many religious observations, so
today I believe that I have found a sort of solution, since I have become aware
of something that might help, and this theory that is now taking shape into my
mind seems to me very important, because it might be able to enlighten a bit
more what seems so obscure to us now. So we believe that it is worth to pass on
what we have learned for the benefit of all humanity.
Because we have
become aware of this theory, which makes us believe that something could be done
for the benefit of mankind, we have reasons to believe that perhaps God has
made me dream an impossible dream for me to achieve, because to achieve this
dream I have to try to reach the unreachable stars; but at the same time I feel
as if there is an inner force that is driving me to do this.
Therefore, if we
believe in God then God might indeed let us reach the unreachable stars,
therefore if I believe in God and pray God I should be able to fulfil this role
and be able to write these religious theory, notwithstanding that I am not a
well educated person, you see I am only a self taught writer. These are my
religious views overall, and just to say a few things about how I feel
sometimes about God, I am going to write this below, while at the same time I
wonder if you are going to agree with my religious views.
---------------------------------------------
Personal religious views
Personal religious views
There may be times when I feel very religious
within myself, when that happens I have this feeling that from the four corners
of the universe, God is watching us closely. Although God is watching us from a
distance nothing will escape God’s watchful eyes. Therefore we can say that we
ought to believe in God and follow his rules, because we are all going to get
back from God what we personally deserve. What I have just said is only how I
personally feel about God at this point of time, but not everybody is going to
agree with me, so I have to be careful about what I am going to say next.
Having said how I feel
about God, now let me try to find my way what to do next: Here I have to
say that I have observed that what I want to do is a very difficult task, and
from my observations I have come to a conclusion that these religious writings
should be written in two main parts, which would enable me to deal with two
points of view of the same subject in different ways.
The first point of view is to look closely at
ourselves, and then to look at the existing religious world and see where and
why those religious are sometime failing us.
Therefore, the first part would have to be
dealing with the way of how we people of this earth feel about religion, so
that we could make up our own mind if we need religion and how much we need
religion, then we should examine those existing religious, and if we find them
not adequate to today’s needs, we’ll have to see what can be done to improve
them, even if we have to change whatever needs to be changed.
But that is now as easy as it sounds because
of our natural instincts, since Mother Nature in order to keep us safe from all
dangerous things during our lives, she has implanted in us the will to survive,
this will to survive makes us very suspicious of everything, therefore we could
not and would not accept everything that is being told to us, therefore we have
to go through a process in order to prove to ourselves that what is being said
is good for us, and then and only then we will accept it.
The second point of view is to try to find a solution
to the existing religious problems.
But first, let us see how and what can I
write to the people in general, in order that they would accept this first
point of view and believe in what we are saying to them.
So, in our next article will talk about these
religious points of views?
See you soon.
May God bless us all?
