Gradually, I have lost interest in religion and its cronies such as churches.
Apart from the unsustainability of the arguments for the existence of God and the fact that religion has lost its relevance in contemporary society, its cronies such as churches are not helping in convincing anyone to take the God theory any serious.
Over the weekend, I visited a church for a friend’s wedding and for all the hours I spent in there—I was shocked, bemused and bewildered.
Before I continue with my observation at the church, can I ask why religious people are the most judgmental and seem to also be the most closed minded people on this planet?
My mother and the people that are close to me in life are super religious. Apart from the fact that they are 100% certain that God exists (in the face of all the emerging opposing evidence), they also know what God wants of them in detail—-what to eat, who they should sleep with or not to sleep with and pretty much who may even go to heaven and not.
Despite their many rules which they’ve come to accept as from God, I have no problem with them and see them as mine or human beings first before any other thing. Deep down, I do not give a toss about their beliefs as long as they do not go about forcing them on me and others—-which they can never stop doing.
