Faith

I'm amazed how easily we believe what the media tells us to believe. People think 'if it is in the news it has to be true, if they say they're scientists whatever they say MUST be the truth'... Why? Why do we so easily trust and believe this media? It can't be just because they say so. I believe it goes deeper than that. It's a matter of choice (it's really that simple, no deep thoughts here); we chose to believe what the truth is. If it's easy to believe, easy to live and follow, we tend to chose that one. As soon as there's is a slightest indication of a detail that could be considered 'proof' of Gods excistence, people kind of panic inside themselves and say it's humbug. Even when science comes with quite solid indications (I try to avoid the word proof) of a planned creation, those scientists are suddenly not trustworthy. They know the universe is about 13b yrs old. They also know that physical laws did not excist before the universe started to excist (physical laws excist because of the excistence of the universe), so how the hell did the universe come into excistence? They also noticed that the universe is in a perfect balance. Evey planet, star and body is apparently right where it's supposed to be. They also know that life cannot excist anywhere else but exactly 1/3 distance away from the centre of the universe (obviously that's how far Earth is from the centre.) Now I'm just mentioning a couple of things that I've come across googling the net for, well, answers. I can't remember these things with all the scientific mumbo, a mix of greek and lating with math (wich I'm really really bad at), but these are some of the conclusions made by astro-physicists, amongst some where atheists (just to mention).

I guess my point is that the truth is out there, but you can't trust your leaders to bring it anymore. Not the ones with the white lab coats and thick glasses, not the government, not NASA.. In the end you're all alone with it. It's you and the truth and yourjurney to figure it out. I'm saying you're all alone because in the end (from my point of view) you're standing there facing God himself, and no matter how Christian you thought you were you will still say "I had no idea".

The mind is a piece of flesh. It can be manipulated to act and make you 'believe' whatever the words and methods, not to mentino the chemicals lead it to.

One day the safe world you live in will be taken away from you. You will watch everything you knew and everything you trusted fall apart, disappear in flames. Everyone can see it coming. I believe that everyone knows God excists, but people want to be in charge. That's the problem. How much must we loose before we call on him? How much does it cost?
