Why am I writing these little articles? Do I want to be a preacher? Do I want to write a book to get rich? Do I want to change your religion? No. No. No.
I have watched the world change in my lifetime. Today has turned into a state of confusion. Scientists say there is no God. Professors say there is no God. Even spiritual leaders say there is no God.
People are confused. I wish to explain what is logical to you to help you understand your own beliefs. Many of you have all but given up your belief in the Creator of the universe because of your lack of understanding God. Science can neither prove nor disprove God because all they have to judge Him by is the universe. What are they looking for - fingerprints? I think the complexity of life attests to the fact that God created all things. Quite often I read how they were surprised by this, they don't understand that ... They have to rewrite their thinking because something worked differently than they expected. It happens all the time. Yet they can stand there and say God does not exist? They count the complexity of the universe down to the tiniest thing ... until they find something smaller. Then they say they have to lengthen the age of the universe to fit in their latest discovery. Etc., etc., etc.
I know a person who argues this way. He told me just today that I'm not qualified to understand how he feels about something because I am not in his position anymore. I used to be in his position and I know exactly how I felt about things from his perspective. He said I'm disqualified from understanding his position now because I'm not in it anymore. Are you getting dizzy yet?
This is the sort of dribble I read and see. I gave up watching nature shows because the narrators kept telling me how some animal realized it had a shortcoming in its environment and changed some feature to "adapt" to it. It's not that I can't deal with such gibberish. It's that when you hear something over and over (called conditioning) is starts to sound believable. Many different things condition people to believe a certain way. It's the method most colleges and universities use to indoctrinate young, delicate voters. "There is no longer a need for a God." "Conservatives are all rich and hate African-Americans." "Capitalism only benefits the elite." And on and on.
Almost all large newspapers are socialist now. They condition you to believe they and only they care about you and want to enlighten you to the evils of our land. The Democrat Party is Socialist. They boot out anyone who disagrees with them. When a new news service came along, people were so indoctrinated toward the Left that they were sure Fox News, who was actually telling both sides instead of just one, was extreme Right. Anything on the Right, of course, is bad. Let's see, the Media is socialist in their beliefs and the Democrats at the high level are socialist in their beliefs. I wonder if there is a coincidence that they seem to both be opposed to any ideas the Right has including a Creator. You'd better read your newspapers and watch the Evening news a little more carefully.
The thing that bothers me most about conditioning is how the Media for the most part and the Democrats almost totally are opposed to the concept of a Supernatural Creator. If you really watch carefully and honestly you will begin to see this and I will not be there to constantly condition your thoughts. It's just true.
God created all that is however He did it. The universe didn't just suddenly appear without a reason. The funny thing is that scientists who push the Big Bang theory have no idea what caused the Big Bang and they have no idea what happened just before the Big Bang. Yet, somehow, they are absolutely certain that no Creator (generic or not) caused it. They suffer from the same problem as the poorly educated know-nothings they are drenching with their fallacy.
I do not belong to a particular religion. I know what religious theories I lean toward and they are well thought out. Someone created all we know and have yet to discover. This Creator gave us life. He did it deliberately. If He can do this, He can know my name and He can love me. We have a book called the Bible by Christians and the Tanakh by the Jews. The Tanakh does not include some of the material of the Bible. The writings in these two books teach that God loves us and we are to pass it on. If we receive something, we are supposed to pass it on to those who need help. The conditioning has taught America, and by their example the rest of the planet, that we don't need God, that we should care only about those we choose to, and that everything we can get our hands on is ours. This is the opposite of what God set up. The Golden Rule lives in all well-developed religions - Love your neighbor as yourself. And who is your neighbor? Everyone.
This is why I waste my time. There is the story of (let's say) an owl who was passing by a little bird who had heard the sky was falling. The owl asked if the little bird thought he could stop the sky from falling by sticking his feet up in the air. The little bird said: One must do what one can. And that is my mission. If I change a life and that person changes a life, and if it goes on and on, the world can change. A Jewish belief is that you should live your life this way: Half of the world is evil and half of the world is good. It is up to you to tilt the scales. Is it feasible? Sure it is if people can stop entertaining themselves long enough to think. How many people have said they don't vote because their vote won't make a difference? Think about it this way. What if every voter that thinks that way went to vote - all the millions of them? The world would be a lot different.
I don't want to try to make people to believe as I do. I just want people to do something with their lives and be grateful to their Creator for the free gift of life. This is the way to happiness. If you just understood God the way I do (no theology here), your life would change. It would become meaningful. There are a lot of things in my life I am not happy with. Do I dwell on them? No. I am always happy because I have meaning in my life and nothing can stop that. I owe my life to my Creator who loves me and I've got my feet in the air trying to turn our sad little world around. I just need some help. When I stand before Him I may be regretful for not putting my best effort into it, but I will be able to say I tried to tilt the scales.
