Re: Atheism/Theism thread
@ rushy: I agree blind-faith isn't justifiable. My faith is based on knowledge, truth, and feeling, not because I am loyal to a religious establishment or human authority but because i understand what God is. The meaning behind God's true essence and message is more important then the actual term "God". A word is just a word. I do not believe in forcing ideologies of any kind on anyone because not only is it wrong, but it's uneffective. People must come to an understanding themselves(voluntarily), only then will they reach a higher plane in life.
What i find fascinating about most atheists is that they claim to be so intelligent and so superior to everyone else when really, this couldn't be farther from the truth. Atheists look down on people because they put themselves on a pedestal. They have yet to surrender their ego. It seems that they have an insecurity with authority in general, not just a Godly-authority, but any authority for that matter. For this reason, it's harder for them to understand the importance of putting others before themselves. They don't believe in God because they do not understand God. They have not found God because they do not search for God. They might have searched at one point and gave up searching(maybe due to a drastic dissapointment or unfortunate experience in which they put blame onto God), or just don't care enough to do so. This doesn't mean that God does not exist inside of them. God exists in everyone. Do I think atheists are bad people? Absolutely not. Do I think they are currently lost? Absolutely.
I try my best not to judge others for what they believe or what they do, but when i understand a certain truth, it is my obligation as a 'good' human being to help and share this truth with others so that one day they may come to a realization for the better. I will share what I know and those who chose to listen, will do so. Those who chose not to listen, will do just that. This is everyones God-given right to freedom: freedom of choice. I will still love you either way because you are all my brothers and sisters.
Atheists are just one step behind because they look for 'what they think' is definitive evidence and 'their idea' of detailed science to answer all their questions and to fill their empty void. One day they will realize that all of it comes from God. God is the evidence and the science. Everything in all corners of every dimension within the universe was created by God. God is the ultimate Creator. When you become closer to God, the rest will fall into place and everything will make more sense to you.
I understand that atheists and theists are the same because they all came from the same source. We were created as equals and in Gods image with the incredible gift of free will. Free will is what creates the illusion of individualism and it is only through faith can you become one with the source. We will never know everything, and we were created that way, not to know everything. You can learn mass amounts of information every day, more so then the most knowledgable human on earth, and still you will only know but a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the amount of information known in the universe. This is why faith is not only beneficial, but necessary. Do not confuse blind-faith with knowledge-based faith. The good will come with the bad, as do the highs with the lows. Open your minds and you will see. Seek and you will find. Ask, and you shall recieve. Think with your minds and feel with your hearts. Then, will you be guided onto the path of the highest level of consciousness.
-I agree with everything Cavernio has said in posts #161 and #164 and she claims to be an atheist.
