I am always amazed when I cross the road to people who confuse faith and credulity, who deny reason to cling at all costs to their religion and their traditions. Last night before turning off my computer, I once again crossed the road, here on Facebook, such a person. One of those people who believe that man and woman descended from Adam and Eve, and that books such as the Torah, the Bible or the Koran are the only texts to which reference should be made to seek the Truth of God . Despite countless evidence, despite the stories of our ancestors, historical reflections, philosophical, despite dozens of civilizations that succeeded all over the world in past ages, despite the current science that bring us many stories about where Humanity comes to how and irremediable Destin she goes, how can you be credulous is still the point of denying the undeniable reality. Do not confuse faith and credulity. This is not because we believe in a religion, in traditions, deeply rooted itself and given by our parents, the parents of our parents, etc.., We shall neglect its own ability to reason, to differentiate between what is obvious what is absurd. How many times have I exchanged with people, not to deny their faith, accept without flinching self disants miracles, just because the Bible, Torah or Koran say. Without thinking in their soul and conscience of the merits of these writings. Especially when you know that these stories were written in the Dark Ages, they were repeatedly revised over the millennia before being coated on paper, they are based on myths and legends that have trees that little connection with the Religion which they refer, or that some of its texts were deliberately chosen by the founders of these religions in terms of thinking, political powers then there cde has something to ask questions. Thus, Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus on December 25. When we know that it is the day of the birth of Apollo in ancient Roman religion, and that this date is near the Winter Solstice, we immediately understand that she was chosen to join the most faithful ancient traditions to the nascent Christian faith in the early 4th century AD, when Constantine declared the state religion throughout the Roman Empire. How Saints are ancient Celts local deities whose places of worship were requisitioned What are established churches? They number in the hundreds. When we see that the three great monotheistic religions hate, to fight, then they all claim descent from Abraham and the nations it spawned, we realize that religion is most often that a pretext for those who teach their truths to expand their political and spiritual power over the gullible and weak. Muslims are convinced that only doctors of the faith are likely to interpret the words of the Prophet. What for? Simply because when people kept in ignorance by arguan t have the only truth of the founder of a religion, it is easier to control and submit populations. Why for a long time the Bible was written in Latin? Only because only the prelates of the Church could read and write Latin, and thus propagate their vision of faith. For today, I will conclude with these words: if God exists, the truth he tries to offer to people is, in my opinion, this: The Truth, or rather, the Truths of God are many, diverse and varied. They are as different as day differs from night. They are also numerous as there are number of grains of sand on Earth or Stars in the Universe. The purposes of God are inscrutable, and if some sacred books offer us some of them filled with Wisdom and Hope for a better world, they not give us the keys of all his thoughts. Far from it. Every people of the Book believes the Beloved child of God. That does not tell us that there are others in this vast cosmic space which we are a tiny particle. The pride of mankind is disproportionate. This is what has always been led to desire to enslave his neighbor, to submit to his will, his royances c. This is also what leads today to destroy the planet where she was born, regardless of what she is going to leave his children. But the day she will realize that she is not the only intelligent species in the universe; even worse, that his God has chosen another breed, different as megaphone Truths which it does not suspected the existence, whereupon it is based to impose its domination will collapse. So not worth it you better not prepare now, rather than cling to certainties will disappear irretrievably; over the centuries and millennia following ...
