Hello all you blog readers! Well in my case one. lol - I never get around to updating this thing so seriously who could blame anyone?
I watched the movie "Oh My God" this week. It was really good and I'd recommend it to anyone. I felt he did a good job on touching on all the points that religion encompasses.
There are four reasons according to "Oh My God" to believe in God:
#1 - We have no idea how we got here; so God is the creator
#2 - Good deeds buy you a place a in heaven; therefore, God is the policeman
#3 - Fear of death. One sure thing happens when we die, our bodies rot. So the rest is speculation. Therefore, God is the giver of eternal life.
#4 - When things go wrong, many dismiss horrendous outcomes by saying it was God's will, therefore God is the scapegoat.
He interview several people in this movie, some well known others just passerbys on the street. One of the people he interviews discusses why there is war or unrest in the world. "When you have nothing to prove, you are comfortable with where and what you have you seek love. When you are scared, afraid, weak inside and your defense mechanism is up you can go for the kill." How true is that?
In other news; I need ideas for my birthday weekend. Its coming up soon and all the plans I had so put together have fallen through. Suggestions?
Til next time!
