"The symbolic tearing of veil was that worship at the temple by a high priest and animals sacrifice was not need. Juses was the sacrifice and the
way."
I take it you mean Jesus as opposed to "Juses"? Like i said I'm not a preacher.
"Some people are better at leading. Some better at serving. And some are better at understand God, so why not seek their wisdom."
Sounds like some royalist rhetoric right there mate, seeking the wisdom of anyone that believes "some people are better at serving" is paramount to
believing in indentured servitude and/or slavery. Then again our Bible and Koran kind of condone such practice or at least don't condemn the nefarious
act of slavery.
"So what defines what is good or evil. You as your own personal god? It’s easy to be good or evil in that context."
Good and Evil are very Human constructs and nothing to do with God, perspective is the key really, whats good for one person may be evil to another or
the rest.
"Sorry that life is a test. That you do have freewill, and it is up to you to choose. Is it wrong a person can choose good or evil?"
I would say its more of a game about acquiring experience but if free will is illusory then choice is rather a fickle beast at best.
"And as repeatedly pointed out, what is the significance of man in the universe. Not much if it’s only material. War becomes meaningless. The fact
one solar storm, comet, astroid, gamma ray burst from a distance star, or nuclear war could wipe man off the face of the earth?"
Why assume we even have a placemark in the grand scheme of our universe, we might just not be that important.
"Anyway? How did man come to love the beauty of art, the beauty of music, the beauty of the universe, so curious, invent beyond the natural world,
love beyond lust, and sacrifice beyond reason? Exist beyond biological function?"
You seem rather impressed with our achievements, but what has God painted or created that's beautiful? Certainly not Humanity that's for sure.
"Are you really address the topic anyway?"
I think so but let's have another go since you don't seem to be paying attention.
People believe because they are scared of the unknown and choose to create illusory anthropomorphized Sky Gods to protect and/or punish dependant on
the situation.
God or our organized religious interpretation of such is either the monster under the bed or the imaginary friend that saves the day or takes the
blame for your mistakes.
