Description
If God does not exist, then what is our meaning? How can you claim we are nothing more then an ant or a germ? How can you have days of Joy and days of Sorrow and say it's meaningless? How can you save a life to say it meant nothing? People claim their is no God that we are just here from a germ or Ape( If we are from Apes then why don't we look like Apes? Why are smarter, and have strong feelings of Love and Dreams? Saying God is not real is like we have no dreams, we have no goals that give us desire in our hearts. It is God that makes our dreams in our hearts, and It is God that makes us become stronger from our sorrows we face.

Just a few things, evolution made us different, from adaptation to our environment.
Nobody said that good or bad days are meaningless, but emotions are just a series of electrons in your brain firing in a sequence, combined with chemicals that make you feel emotions.
There is no proof, except to the contrary that animals can't have dreams or emotions.

I do not try to say that you are wrong but just to state my mind... I don't think a God makes our existence have more meaning. I, for one, do not claim that we are nothing more than an ant or a germ: I think of everyone as individuals, everyone leaving something of themselves in the world, and I don't think that has something to do with religion. Also, you can have days of joy, days of sorrow, days of anger... and each of that days can make a difference depending on the person: it can have meaning if you want it to have meaning, it can mean nothing if you don't want it to have it. Now, as for the people who claims that, I believe there is not possibility on knowing every single thing so... the existence of a God can be true as well as false. Technically, apes are our cousins (as long as I know); not looking like them has to do with different necessities and with time, we have changed. How and why? We cannot exactly know the true answer (at least, at 100%). Smarter, in what sense? I have seen animals (apes and others) that are more intelligent than people (or that at least, they appeared to be more intelligent). Now, leaving jokes aside, if you are referring to the talking ability... who knows? It could be because of a God, it could be just evolution, it could be just luck... anything. As for love, let me tell you that animals do love. They maybe don't show it like us, they maybe behave differently and they maybe cannot express it like you... But they love; just different. As for dreams... who knows? We cannot communicate with them (we haven't been able to do it) and as far as I know, no one has been inside an animal's mind so... who says they don't have dreams? Is there any prove?
And why that? I have dreams, I have goals... and that doesn't have to be with God being real or no (leaving aside my believings). Any human has dreams and goals: that's part of our 'race', that's a characteristic we have. Having that does not make God more real (as well that it doesn't make it unreal). Dreams and goals can be made just because we, as persons, believe in them and want to do them or just because we love them and like them. Just because we are human. If God has done it just when you were born... Well, maybe yes or maybe not. Like I said, there is no enough prove and faith sometimes it is not enough for some people. God making us stronger from our sorrows? Just like the other times, who knows? It is possible, maybe we have someone that makes us stronger but... there are persons with a lot of sorrows, with a lot of pain in the hearts that do not feel that strength or that they do not become stronger and simply they let themselves fall in a pit full of pain or worse.
Now, I do believe religion (any of the world) can help a lot of people and, excepting the radicals that only spread violence and hatred, can bring a lot of people together in something. I have seen a lot of them going to poor countries, contributing in food and education, I have seen them spreading equality and love... That is something that I can appreciate and that I love seeing it when I have the opportunity to see it. But, even if most of the foundations are religious or are founded by someone religious, there are also people who just do not have to believe in a God or that do not believe in one, and they help people giving money to poor, contributing to some of the causes, help to conserve the planet Earth... Doing these things, it does not make God more real or more unreal. It just makes us greater as humans. It just makes us better. Our existence can have either a meaning or not but I think the most important thing for us to do right now is living as a society; helping each other as much as we can, trying to make the right decisions, protecting the Earth more... whether there is a God or not.
Anyway, as I have said, that's my opinion.
Have a good day!

I believe everything has a reason for being alive and being who the are, but the emotions we feel and the goals that we desire to achieve had to come from some where and no science can prove where Love comes from.

Maybe it just comes from ourselves, maybe it is part of our subconscious, maybe is God... There is no science that can prove (exactly) where that comes from like you have said, but even if for you is 'logical' to said that comes from God, for others faith and religion are not enough. I, for one, believe that we probably will never know but I want to take advantage of that characteristics we have, no matter where they come from. I enjoy having desires, having goals, having love... and I just enjoy it. I think that is more important that knowing where has it come from

Thank you, I just the people who claim God isn't real hasn't proven themselves very well. They claim we are here because of Apes, but if that's true then why haven't we seen Apes turn into People. WE see people live a hundred years and they never say they'd used to be an Ape when they were born

I was watching the Original Star Trek episode, I Mudd. In it Kirk tries to explains to the androids that humans not only need to be cared for, but they need challenges and struggle so they can be driven to achieve their dreams. The andriod leader Norman simply can't understand, "But Dreams aren't real!"
I saw another show, Person of Interest, where Root, before she dies, explains that Quantum Physics suggests the only real things in reality are shapes. Everything is a simulation, what if reality is a big simulation as Root suggested. What if God is running a process so it can create an end product? It would explain strange things in Physics like Many Worlds Theory.

Have you heard of the Bride of Christ?

My personal theory of Christianity....
What if God is creating a companion. The Bible seems to suggest this.
I think the ancient worshippers of Baal realized this, but they thought they could appeal to that Bride(Asteroth) and make God(El) fufill their wishes. In a sense they were seeking to manipulate God through magic and seduction. The Asteroth Poles of ancient Canaan I believe have their modern equivlaence in the Dancing Poles of Gentleman's Clubs. If they were doing that in Ancient Canaan, no wonder it was so hard for the Kings of Judea and Isreal to rid their nations of tthe Sacred Groves and Asteroth Poles. But God hated them, because that's not what he wanted in a companion, would you create a world just to have a Gold Digging mate? But I believe the sacred poles persist, as evil men think they can manipulate God in this manner to this day.
But I think Jesus being the personification of God, and as an example to the rest of us, could be the part of God himself that he is giving to the Bride(all of us in The Lord) to make us real. Think of the horror movie, Mae, where the girl who kills everyone for their parts to make herself a friend and finally gives her own eye to give her friend life and dies, but the she sees the friend come to life shortly before she passes. Jesus could be that finally part of himself that makes us as real as he is. You see the problem is, if we are in a simulation, we can't be real. However if God is real and running the simulation, maybe he has found a way to make us real in the Holy Spirit, by giving us part of himself.
Sorry to go all crazy, but these are some weird things I have been thinking long and hard on. Sorry some old fetish artist, who is guilty every time someone makes a lavacious comment on his works, felt compelled to share this with you.

Actually I don't think that Mary Magdalene was literally the wife of Christ. To do that, God would exclude the rest of us and only Mary Magdalene would go to heaven and the world would have ended. Christ is divine, one with the father as you yourself are one with the dreams on a you assume in your dreams. Jesus came to pick everyone worthy, worthy by their love of him, so they could be part of The Bride.

Doesn't mean he couldn't find true love, we all find true love at least once in our lifetime. But she was very close to him

I think he did love her, Martha told Mary that the Teacher was asking for her. And she excitedly went to see him. I think that's in the book of John.
I always think of this song when I think of Miram(Mary) and Yeshua(Jesus)

that would explain that weird "glitch" were you go in the kitchen and forget why you went there in the first place
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Yes, that weird glitch happens so often to me XD
Actually I think it would explain that weird glitch like that movie actor or singer you swore was dead and now being interviewed on 60 Minutes, or that friend who finds you living in New York fifteen years later, you know the one from your hometown 2500miles away? When you have lived as much life as I have, you begin to notice really strange improbable things like that.

this comment will be risky af:
we are humans, we evolved more than other animals, smarter, more emotional, and with all of that people want to feel like they were made for a reason.
we have god, supernatural forces, other things other religions believe in. and people who belive in none at all.
people who claim no god and others who do; have ZERO reliable sources other than theorys and books, so why say it not real/fake?
there is nothing wrong with religion. it helps us feel like we belong and drives us to acheive.
and to those who who dont belive in god, they dont need something to believe to achieve.
this post is a vent, i lowkey dislike these type of journals. beacause of the credibilty of god being real, so these journals are pointless
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
To you this Journal may be pointless, but what about someone else who seeks God? What I say is for those who want it and have a desire to hear the words from him. I can't force you to Love him, but I can tell the knowledge I believe to be true

ah yes, sorry for the late reply ^^
that vent was because i was tired, just needed a nap.
i understand in your belif in god, and how you raise awareness of your aperciation of him with writing fantasy books.
sorry about that vWv
