About Me

After many years of thinking and soul searching, I would like to invite you to join my journey. Please help me find the answers I have not yet found and allow the ones I have to enlighten your life. Many people rebelled against religion, some for ideological reasons and others for emotional reasons. I was raised religious and wanted to run away; I failed. I am deeply connected with a religion and it came through deeper understanding rather than vice versa. I still disagree with many people who share my faith as to the correct motivations for our religion. I am as anti-religion as a religious man can get. I believe religion is the root to all evil.

Why do you care if there is a G-d?

Does the desire to know if there is deities evolve from our need to work together? Do we need to work together to advance our species? Do we need belief to provide a governing force to the world? If we don’t believe in a G-d would it prevent us from working together?

“The Guitar Man” mentioned in a previous comment; that there are good and evil atheists. Many atheists developed a natural way of inter-human relations which are not based on a supreme being. There are animals that have types of governments to ensure that they collaborate.

Is a deity necessary? Why would we evolve to connect to a G-d if the simplest way would be “let's work together to live better”? Do religions advanced human tranquility? Or, has tranquility developed from humans recognizing the physical advantages to peace? If we developed religion to govern ourselves why doesn’t it work?

Isn’t the very desire to know if there is a G-d a super-natural aspiration? If not, what are the natural benefits for this desire?
