Topic: No need for God? | |
---|---|
Some questions on the future of humanity.
Will the ever be a time when mankind has no need of the concept of god? Will we reach a point where we as a species will have reached a level of enlightenment that allows us to live within the universe as a part of it all and not a creature to be yanked one way or the other by forces beyond our control? Will there be a time when we will be faced with the 'god like' decisions involving an 'emerging' sentientent being? (if such a thing should happen will we confuse them or assist them? Or leave them to struggle into understanding on their own?) |

Will the ever be a time when mankind has no need of the concept of god?
Which god? The one in the bible? Which bible? Which holy book? Which deity? We are talking Mankind here, so there are more than one... Will we reach a point where we, as a species, will have reached a level of enlightenment that allows us to live within the universe as a part of it all, and not a creature, to be yanked one way, or the other, by forces beyond our control? Once again...Mankind? Humans as a species? Not all will obtain enlightenment..it would be so wonderful though. Will there be a time when we will be faced with the 'god like' decisions involving an 'emerging' sentient being? It is already happening...emerging sentient beings, everywhere...look at our children, and many adults around. (if such a thing should happen will we confuse them or assist them? Or leave them to struggle into understanding on their own?) I suspect we may confuse them, as a species... As to struggling for understanding, many are baffled as to the lack of awareness amongsth the species. |

There is one true God, the God of Abraham. No, we will always be
affected by him for all eternity. |

i have this idea.......
that for the sake of self preservation of the specis we evolved into religious concepts especially to structure morality and education and develope our environment accordingly.....and actually it worked. there is far less violence now than in more primitive times....we evolved a social and personal conscience....but hey as a specis we are young and we are workin the bugs out of the system as we speak....i have alot of ideas like the one that wonders if we have reached the zenith of our cycle, and now, like a flower loses it's bloom , we have indeed become more yin. our future depends alot on our environment.... i'm kinda hoping mother nature will kick some butt and rebalance ...i don't see anyone giving up their cars fast enough as humans we are making a big mistake to not take more seriously what is happening on the planet in terms of climate change.... i feel there is a need for the concept of God as well as the concept that there isn't....the checks and balances work together they are not meant to be black and white any more than alll males must look alike and all females must look alike.....all the perspectives are part of our intellectual process to help us live fruitful lives and fundamentally driven by our biology...our genetics to preserve the specis, one way or another.... i guess i am rambling...... must be leftovers from my digesting the moral code i am working on....lol the gospel according to alex....heheheeheehheeeeeeh don't hold your breath lmao |

“as humans we are making a big mistake to not take more seriously what is happening on the planet in terms of climate change.....” It is true that we aren’t changing nearly fast enough. My god! I had recognized problems with human societies when I was still in my teens! Yet for some reason all these supposedly adult politicians don’t seem to have a clue. I listen to NPR all the time and the things that are going on in this world are totally despicable. Is it sin? Or is it just plain stupidity? I personally think it’s the latter. I’m more convinced than ever that we have evolved from apes because far too many people are still acting like apes. What was the topic again? Oh yes, god? If we need a god it’s only because we’re too stupid to think for ourselves. |
