God? Every day many people go about their days moaning that #life ain't fair and they are hard done by. A lot of days I wake up and before I even flinch I think to myself, "what's the point?" luckily I have my good lady, that's my reason for getting up. But all too often people are resigned to their fate and all they can do is rant. Is that all there is to #life? Do we have no choice in our destinys? Should we follow our paths, or blaze a new one? The vast majority of people don't believe in the divine and there is no God and we are all alone in this world, if this is the case, then who's to blame for their seemingly pointless existence? Surely them, unless they, like everyone else must be, are a victim or circumstance. Sometimes I wish I was religious, I wish I had faith, unquestionable trust that someone was watching out for me, that no matter what happened it was gods will and I would ultimately be hunky doory. But I believe that we and we alone choose our lives and we must be accountable. If I moan I'm overweight, who is responsible? If someone is unhappy with their partner? Who can change that? Work sucks? What are you doing to change that? The most common argument against god is, "how can he exist if there is so much suffering?" "if god is good then why so much fighting in his name?" both reasonable points. But what kills people in wars? Some religious extremist trying to strike someone down by channeling god or by a gun or bomb? Now who created them? Good ol' science. Its not for me to say there's no god, but unfortunately I only believe in facts, shit that I can see or touch. I know the earth is millions of years old, because there is proof, my mind won't let me believe in miracles, just extreme cases of good fortune and coincident. I think that's the problem, when things are tough or not going your way, you won't allow yourself to believe things will be ok, because you think its down to you alone to make things better and you think you aren't capable. We all should have a little more faith, of course we are in control of our lives, we are responsible for our own actions, but what if we allow ourselves to be helped along the way, by a greater power or something else? What's the worse that can happen? What if god created science? Kind regards Shane
