One can argue that the concept of religion and the abstract nature of
entities believed to rather influence the actions of their disciples with
some certain constraints or divine ethics, is one that is fallible. Of
course, it is rather hard to believe in the existence of an entity who
demands worship and other appeasement when its worshippers aren’t
getting anything in return. The human nature is rather one that
demands something in return consciously or unconsciously, when a
service is rendered. The hard truth is that there exist gods. The
generalization is not limited to the fact that some faiths declare their
gods to be supreme to others. And of course, if I am to be a little bit
biased, I would be a part of those who believe in the supremacy of a
single entity. But the existence or nonexistence of a god or gods, is
another topic to be debated in another book.
I for one would love to plunge myself into the question that I have been
drowned repeatedly in. I will take you on a journey which entails the
concept of the Christian faith and beliefs. The milestone we anticipate
during this journey is one that will give us a clearer view if not
completely answer the question that has been poking some people,
who have dared to extend their curiosity way beyond the safe shores of
the Christian doctrines planted by martyrs in the faith, who expect their
disciples to follow the truth they suffered and died for.
Well, to all those who have breached the safe harbor and have tasted
the waters of curiosity, I gotta say; there’s no going back. And don’t
worry, curiosity ain’t gonna kill no cat today.
Well now that we’ve been briefed on our mission, we begin.
As your commander, I urge you to let your curiosity roam free.
Question the faith but do it wisely. Have an unwavering foundation; if
not you’ll end up like the common pagan.
THE CHRISTIAN FAITH
The Christian faith is one that has challenged the odds and advent of
civilization. It is one that has been strongly opposed and has passed to
the trials of false doctrines and beliefs. From the time of the pharisees
and Sadducees down to the time where atheism is now an open
confession, the Christian faith has stood rather unwavering. For its
unshaking foundation, it is rather commendable and it can be said
surely that the Christians are not likely to give up their fight against sin
and satanic dominance over humanity. Though it can be said that this
fight is rather not a physical battle and in support of that I can vaguely
remember a Bibe verse saying “…we fight not against flesh and blood;
but against principalities and powers…” The Chistian fight is no doubt
commendable and seems to push a fair fight but no doubt some people
still question the authenticity of the god they serve. My belief in
Christianity will not hinder the view and opinions of those who no
doubt pose a rational argument towards the Christian faith.
Now it is left for the Christian faith to defend themselves. But since
Christians are really people who rather like to keep to themselves, it
couldn’t be an argument of any kind.
The non-Christian faith for sure has it for them; that is, they are
prepared to battle the believers and wipe them out of existence using
every means possible. Whether legal, spiritual (though they don’t
believe), they will find every possible way to bring these believers to the
view of justice they believe is right for them.
Well, the system which makes believers and let’s say the Islam religion
view themselves as opposite is rather outdated. I mean they are literally
serving the same God irrespective of the language barrier.
