It could be said that I don't believe in God.
Of course, those of you who do may have already shied away from this post... but if I can ask you, no, beg you to sit a while and read what I have to say, you might realize that our beliefs are hardly different. Or, maybe they are quite different. Either way, free will has led me to question the existence of (G/g)od(s).
I'm no Atheist. Sure, I've doubted that we are more than just evolved apes before. Let's be honest...however small or unlikely it may be, we COULD just stop existing when we die.
That's what always scares me the most about death...the thought that at any moment, I just won't exist and won't even realize it is possibly one of the most terrifying things imaginable.
For a while there, I looked at it this way: If there is an all-powerful being out there that IS everything and can DO ANYTHING, and loves us all unconditionally...why does my life suck so much?
I mean seriously, God. REALLY? Out of my Immediate family, there is ONE person who doesn't have some sort of major health problem. Why? Why can't we all be healthy? Isn't life hard enough without having to fight to stay alive every day?
And why is there NEVER enough? Not enough money, not enough food, not enough room. If there is an all knowing, all seeing God...Why can't he see that we need help?
Even now, I'm having a hard time grasping that. But then I realize... if God is in everything, isn't God in us?
THERES the shocker right THURRR.
See, if God is in us, then we all have a little bit of God. Only it isn't God. It's the same energy that keeps the trees growing and the earth spinning. So....if we all have that energy within us, whose to say that we can't use it?
Some people pray. Others manifest. What's the difference? Manifesting IS praying. SO WHATS THE BIG DEAL ABOUT RELIGION?!
GRR. If you think about it, all major religions have the same general outline.
WELL. Ive been writing this forever and I don't think I can write more on it without rambling. I'm open to all questions and ideas.
LOVE YOU ALL.

ReplyDeleteYou know how I feel about almost everything you've said here. I'm right here with you, lovely.
You're amazing. My best friend. I'm sorry things aren't going awesome for you right now, but they'll get better. As it is, live in the now and focus on all the awesome things in your life.
Like me. And Kzyzlze. And your puppy Hugo.
And your family, I guess.
:) I love you
I like the premise of this. It's a good post for the idea of having spirituality over the generally organized and defined idea of religion. I personally am all for G-d and formal religion because I've found one that fits me as a person, but in the process of finding that, I've come to realize that most beliefs are all going for the same things: peace, helping others, sharing love, and bettering your life through belief in something greater than yourself. All inherently good and beautiful things which makes me worry so much less about the nitty-gritty of doctrine and religious texts. If we're all going for those things, we should stop fighting each other and work towards those ideals.
