There are some questions I come
across when people start feeling that I am the ordinary version of the atheist
(Huh. People...). Some good questions, which I really like answering; and then
there are those really stupid ones, the ones a 9-year old asks. I mean, come
out of your holes, people! Think more! Be more curious, more open-minded!
Sorry, deviated off the subject.
The stupid questions sound like “Who runs the world, then?” or “Then why is it
that such a huge number people actually believe?”. What?? Are you serious?! I
mean, whatever happened to the Higgs Boson, or the population blasts those
social workers keep on keep remind you about?
And there are some real good
ones. “I don’t know about God, but I feel that there is a universal force
present, running everything, be it comprehensible or paranormal” is the most
diplomatic of them. “Sometimes you need God; He can give you hope, whether true
or false..”. I mean just look the height of weakness in your spirit. Whatever happened to your own motivation? “There is this need of faith, I think, in
everyone, so that we can act humane” is what I would consider a neutral on my
scale. These thoughts surely are from civilized brains, brains who don’t want
to waste their time on a practically never-ending debate, because there are
only speculations, not proofs. I appreciate the owners, but you what’s wrong
with them? Actually, do you know what’s wrong about this mentality? It is the
fact that if you think someone is doing something for you, if an event is ‘your
destiny already written’, you wouldn’t want to give your best. Tell me, if it’s
sure that your younger brother is going to throw that chocolate wrapper for you
in the bin, would you want to stand up and throw it yourself? If something’s
already written, then your actions would not affect the outcome, would it? So
why don’t we just sit idle, doing completely nothing? Because we are all aware
that “God helps only those who help themselves”, right?
