Do you really want to know if God exists or not? If the answer is yes, shouldn't you be searching for the answer to that question instead of assuming you already know it?
Are those that choose atheism without a journey that leads them there, at the height of human arrogance?
Are those mired in fundamentalist doctrine that don't read anything but a bible - if that - and spit out like a broken record all they think that has been laid out on that vinyl guilty of the same?
There is no physical tangible proof of God's existence, there is no worthy scientific explanation for a theory of everything. No one holds all the cards.
Seek and you shall find. Read, listen, look, ponder, do, think, try new experiences. I don't know what you'll find but I would hope that you'll find some humility and some appreciation for the variety of belief and absence of it. Better that than to be one of the judgemental hate filled ignorant.
Faith doesn't have to be blind and lack of it doesn't have to be without depth. Question everything and go with the answers that resonate as truth to you - and then continue your quest and your questioning. One more question... was this too arrogant and judgemental of me?
A repressed activist trying to make sense of it all, trying to make a difference and trying to be concise.
this came about from me reading the comments sections of articles where believers and non believers battle it out with nothing but scorn for the other.
ReplyDeletei enjoyed the read - well said :) mystery is most beautiful but terribly annoying! the one thing i am fundamentalist about is that both christians and athiests have no reason to be anti swearing and shouldn't under any circumstances use capital letters.. ever! i often look at these christian and athiest swearing haters and capital letter loving heathens and quietly ponder to myself, "there but by the grace of god go i.."
