Greetings,
Dear friends once again here to exploit my creativity with the topics that brings us the friend @galenkp with the #weekend-engagement.
This time I will quote the following sentence
I don't believe in religion because....
So come on.
Believing is something instinctive in the human being, and the world in order to be world must give us a motivation to move forward, many times this motivation is influenced in studies, economy and many times religion is part of this.
Of course I have my religious patterns , I am not an atheist and I believe in God as the creator of all things, but religion or religions are something else and go beyond that.
To me religions are a pyramid business system full of corruption and enrichment that use the name of God for their end.
All religions talk about a punishing God and judgments and this is what can get society to stay in relative order as no one wants to experience the wrath of God.
But if we go to religions we can see how the Vatican dresses in gold and precious stones professing the best for humanity while there are a great number of poor countries that can be benefited with part of this capital.
The same thing happens with Christians, they profess to pay tithes to their followers and you see them with their best luxuries while their followers with few resources even take a plate out of their mouths to meet this quota.
A few days ago a news came out where a pastor swindled a number of followers who sold even their houses because the arrival of Jesus was that day, because thanks to fanaticism many people lost everything and that leader only ruined the name of God.
I think that no one knows the truth because everyone has their own version of it, I think we should only live with good in our hearts and our actions, helping others will always be satisfying, honoring our parents makes us better men and brings us tranquility the day we do not have them (I lived this), the most important thing is to know how to differentiate the good from the bad and that we have to pass it on to our children.
It is a better person the one who knows that stealing is bad and by principles does not do it, so he does not have to resort to beating his chest for a forgiveness that in the end we do not know if he will really have it.
It is difficult to believe in religions when their leaders are asked to take a vow of chastity and must live only for religion. How that person can advise your relationship if he/she has not gone through that for example.
We must be at peace with ourselves in order to be at peace with the world, we must have a healthy diet in order to have a clean and healthy body and if we go to the bible it says that our body is our temple then let's take the step of loving and caring for ourselves in order to do it with the world and with our future.
Before I say goodbye, I quote this colloquial phrase that says
