Religious discussions four

Updated on August 16, 2022

Religious discussion and studies and help from today's computers

In order to understand religions, we need to study them and above all we need to discuss our beliefs with our friends and other fellow believers. Some of this knowledge today could be found on the Internet, so it is available to everybody easily.

More religious discussions

Welcome to our article (44), religious discussions four.

Dear readers, in this article, we continue to discuss religious issues, which are endless. You see, we can go on forever arguing about what beliefs can be true and what cannot be true, and above all, does God exist, or is God an invention of the human mind? These questions about religions have been there for ages, and they will continue in the future.

It is going to be so, because now that the people can learn faster than before, because the computer makes it easy to find the information we want. So, when the people realize that beside their religious beliefs, there are other religions in the world, they will start to believe that religions are manmade, because there are too many religions. Anyhow, I believe that I will continue to write about religions because I want to suggest a way that will explain religions in a modern way. With this decision in mind, I am going to talk to my religious friends, I must explain that I want to talk about religions, because their religious views, can help me understand religions better, hoping that we can find answers to our questions.

Calling on our religious friend

Calling on my friend Mark

A few days after the meeting that I have talked about in the last two articles, I was thinking to invite my friends again, but I decided to visit my trusted friend Mark; I wanted to talk to him alone.

So, one day I went to see Mark at his home, knowing that this was his day off from work, when I arrived at his home there was this other friend with him, but anyhow it was John the bloke that read the end of the Bible in the end of time discussions, therefore, the presence of John did not worry me, since John is a religious bloke and religions is what I wanted to talk about. The reason that John was there is that he lives up the street and he was going to the shops past Mark house, he saw that Marl was there and decided to stop and chat with Mark.

So, when I arrived John was about to leave, but my arrival stopped him, as Mark invited me and him back inside to have a cup of tea. We set down and we started to talk, and soon I was talking about a chance meeting that I had with Gino and Peter the previous day and the religious talk that I had with them, so, I told Mark and John in detail what we said.

Gino and Peter believe that man cannot be created from plain dirt, because even God must be subject to the laws of physic or natural laws, and anyhow, if there is a God, then this God will use first the natural laws to create anything.

And then they came up with this theory, the Hebrews wanted their God more powerful than any other God in the world, so, they invented a god so powerful that can create a man from dirt. Now, do you think that it is possible what they have said?

Now if you believe that is possible, then for the first time we have explained what is written in the Bible in a different way. So, from now on, we must look if we can find other religious writings in the Bible that can be explained in a different way, and the reason why they have been written the way they have been written.

Now I want to know what you think about Gino and Peter theory, and how do you think we can use it, to solve the present religious problems in the world. I believe that you know that I want to write this religious theory that can suggest to the world a new way of seeing God and religion, at the same time I know that what I am going to write has got to be a simple religious theory, because it is easier to write it, and it is easier for the people to understand it.

John reaction to their theory

John reaction to Gino and Peter theory

Dear reader, I didn’t want to involve John in these religious talks, but he was there, so, it would have been rude to get rid of him, and now we must hear what he wants to say.

John answer

I wonder what has gone wrong with Gino and Peter; I don’t know why they are turning atheist or what these days. I am saying that they are turning atheist because that is the only way that I can explain what they have said about the Bible and the creation of man.

Why are they saying that God cannot create man from dirt, when the Bible says that he did? Why they try to find all these excuses to change the meanings of the Bible, when the Bible has been written thousands of years ago from people inspired from God and people believe that it is so?

Why should the Jews invent their God, as if God needs to be invented? They should be ashamed of themselves for saying many profane things about God and the Bible.

I believe that they are being brainwashed from the atheists, otherwise they would not say this. What gave John and Gino this idea that the Jews invented their own God? And then, to show that their God was a super God they made God create man from dirt, when the Bible says that God made man as his own imagine? What has gone wrong with them to turn to atheism.

Here John started to calm down as he had said what he wanted to say about Gino and Peter, so, we knew that soon everything would be normal, and we could have normal discussions. And hear what our friend Mark had to say.

Discussions with Mark and John

After John had said what he wanted to say, Mark started talking and said.

I believe that you have had an interesting discussion with Gino and Peter about this creation of mankind in the Bible; but I cannot help thinking that Gino specially when he is with Peter, Gino can tell you some extreme views, therefore, to say that Gino is becoming an atheist is wrong, because I know Gino very well and I can tell you that he likes to exaggerate things, I am telling this specially for you John, because you are worried about this religious situation that Gino has got into; do not worry about it my friend, because everything is going to be normal.

John said; okay Mark I can see what you mean; but I believe what I believe and I am not going to hold it back, therefore, when I believe that I have to speak out, I will speak out and this is just what I did, okay. Anyhow, let us hear what you think yourself about what they said.

You see, Gino and Peter have sometimes extreme views, but when reflecting what they have said this time and other things, it is not that extreme, when we use our logic reasoning mind.

So, let us reflect on this situation by using our own imagination; first of all, there have been always extreme beliefs and views in religious circles, if we look back at history we will find that religions have helped mankind in many ways, especially because it brings friendship to people, you see, although religions are made to follow a god with a set of rules, those people that follow them are bound to discuss these things together, and by discussing and sharing them with other people they become friends, this is one of the best sides of religions.

But then on the other side, there are times, when religions have done things so extreme and terrible. Anyhow, you cannot control people just by being nice to them; people need rules to follow and somebody that enforces those rules and that is the reason why religions have been written the way they have been written.

I am sorry to say this John, but what is written in religious books is not always the whole truth. Therefore, if Gino and Peter have gone out of the way and the beliefs that everybody accept, because we have been told what to believe; then Gino and Peter may have got it right this time, because what they are saying is as extreme as the creation of mankind in the Bible, if we use our own logic reasoning mind.

We must keep in mind that there are other major religions that explain the creation of man in different ways; here I am talking about the Indus religions and I quote.

“Hinduism perceives the whole creation and its cosmic activity as the work of three fundamental forces symbolized by three gods, which constitutes the Hindu Trinity or ‘Trimurti’: Brahma - the creator, Vishnu - the sustainer, and Shiva - the destroyer.” End of quote. It is said that mankind sprang from Brahma body and there were four caste, or type of men. As you can see this is different from the Bible creation.

Here Mark stopped talking about religion, and then started talking about other things.

Now, reflecting on what has been said, I believe that Mark is right. This is one of the reasons why, I like to talk to my friends just to feel more confident.

I believe that I have said enough in this article, so, see you next time, where we are writing about, religions could be manmade.

May God bless us all.
