I became a believer, not in Jesus Christ as God's son but in a Supreme Creator as consciousness itself of which all of us are a part of after
reflecting upon what it means to exist and what reality and consciousness really is reflecting upon theories such as the string theory, multi-and
higher dimensional theories and the evolution theory based on natural selection and what the ultimate goal of it would hypothetically be.
However, I am not waiting or putting my life in someone elses hands praying for the reincarnation of an ancient spirit to appear and save humanity
from certain annihilation all by itself.
I'd rather theorize that a higher state of consciousness, which can be called christ consciousness if one wish to, can be accessed by anyone aware of
what is going on and I will not remain in ignorace hoping someone else will save the world for me but do my best to make a change myself. However
insignificant impact on the world I may have in the end. At least, I am conscious of my own and other beings existence and value life as something
sacred not to be defiled by personal material desires, lust of power and greed and I intend to change my reality by accepting this as reality itself,
aware of the fact that this is a manifestation of my own and others conscience and the only way to make the world a better place is to start with
yourself.
God is not a bearded man in the Heavens who is all knowing and all mighty.
God is the universal consciousness of which we all are a part of and if one wish God to treat you well, one must treat oneself by the same principles
as one would expect from God because consciousness is within us all, as true as you are reading this right now.
Ancient tradition and contradictory science is ignorant and irrelevant. The only tradition, which also is the most ancient one in Human history is
Humanitism itself.
And if one wish to see or hear examples of this heightened state of awareness one need only read the profound wisdom found in people such as Dalai
Lama, Albert Einstein, Jacque Fresco and Buddha for example.
Please excuse the rant but I am quite tired of seeing both religious followers and atheists ignorantly going at each other as if the world on which we
all live on won't affect them both. It is utter idiocy.
Put this "ish" aside, both sides and educate yourself in both fields and reach a common understanding.
Learn history through archeology and religion, future through science and maintaining a world view instead of a local one and gain wisdom by applying
all of these into your reality. It is quite simple and enlightening.
I did not expect to find such ignorance on ATS.
If Jesus is going to save us all, great but how nice of you to just stand there and watch him to all the hard work.
If we are supposed to die of a natural disaster of WW3, not so good but it hasn't happened yet but why in Jesus Darwin Christs name are you just
standing there waiting for it to happen so that you can say "I told you so"?
This should be posted in the threads you mention as well OP for it does not only apply to you but all of us.
