Thoughts for Today - 25 / 02 / 16

Please recognize that no great mental effort is required to understand the origination & continuance of God belief & Religiosity.

ALL stem from fears of the unknown by primitive people, largely ignorant of the facts of LIFE.

These early Beliefs are kept afloat by leaders who prey on the naivety of those people unable to exercise the common sense of reality -

& there seems to be plenty of them!

To any normal-thinking person, it’s been obvious for a very long time that ALL religions are pure HUMBUG - their variants causing trouble a-plenty across the globe.

Religious leaders just cannot be so thick as to believe in the existence of an un-contactable GOD! - - - A few pious words seem to be all that is needed for them to get through life without the soiling of hands. IMPOSTORS ALL!

High time Humanity woke up & dumped all of this ancient disabling claptrap - Gods are, quite definitely - surplus to requirements!

Could I please invite you to peruse 3 essays on this subject. They can be found at the address below - My view of Life, having sampled over 95 years of it - not without bother.

If one needs a ‘religion’ to tackle the problems of life, what’s wrong with plain & pure COMMON SENSE - the use of REASON & LOGIC - Nature’s way of guiding us to the very end. .

ALL of us MUST & DO use it - 24 / 7 / 52 weeks per year!

Natural evolution has produced the ethical values we use today,

& please, never forget that the often inspiring & lovely music generated by this God-belief is accompanied by lyrics - very appropriate to the tune - but ALL composed by Humans.

Surely a TRUE GOD does not need or want to be patronised so severely!

Would welcome a response to these observations -

All Gods are but invisible & silent entities, dreamt up & blessed with existence only by Charlatans who have long preyed on the naivety of the credulous!

From Witch-Doctors & Medicine-Men to Archbishops & Ayatollahs, all are Impostors - without a shred of conscience.

I need to correct my previous post that tags the argument as for God. I've tried to edit it but I get no response; bugs have crept into the program somehow. I wonder who allowed them access?

It's just got to be apparent to anyone who is prepared to think - ALL gods are purely Man-made.

The absract subject of Religiosity is the realm of dumb intellectuals who should know far better than to treat it seriously. It's obvious tosh. They surely must realise that the mind is naturally prone to the generation of illusions & arrive at the common sense conclusions that any sane person would!

Transcendental tripe is definitely not for me!

Give up these mind games. Get REAL.

We can speculate for ever but are INFINITELY short of the necessary knowledge to form a valid judgement re the nature of it all.

All Gods are home grown entities generated by early ignorance & fear of the future. That fact is so obvious, it shouldn't need to be stated.

The use of common sense & research (science) is our only means of getting by. We must ALL use it!

This question is a definite No-Brainer!

Early in Man's existence, those people seeking power over their fellows, set up as Medicine-Men - Witch-Doctors - Soothsayers & Sorcerers etc, all claiming to have insights & contact with a 'Power' - of sorts. Little effort would be required due to the ignorance & fears of the unknown which must have prevailed at that time.

Over millennia, via many devious pious paths, evolution has now landed us with their modern equivalents - Archbishops - Ayatollahs - Imams - Rabbis - Popes plus a host of other hypocritical sect leaders, incessantly brainwashing the largely unthinking masses with their ridiculous 'Holy' beliefs.

Fouling up our minds with a rag-bag of archaic religiose twaddle doesn't help at all to further our understanding of this truly awesome Quantum / Astronomical Universe.

The need to consult Biblical, Koranic, or any other crap-laden fairy-tales in order to pursue a decent & considerate existence beggars belief! As with everything, ethics evolve quite naturally.

Everyone is infected with an imaginative 'Spiritual' tendency, sentimentally induced, that is 'merely' the natural wonderment of our existence & surroundings.

The Human mind is fundamentally prone to the generation of illusions. Elemental reasoning must be applied to give all 'fantasial' thoughts a TRUE perspective!

A simple story. No need for the meandrine moonshine of 'erudite intelligentsia'. Just take yourself back in time & examine unvarnished facts.

Please acknowledge that the primitive mind was bound to generate quite naturally, mythological imagery of an Elysian nature. Also, one must accept that the relative ignorance of early humans, coupled with understandable fears of the unknown, provided those individuals seeking power over their fellows (a natural human trait) with the conditions to set up as Medicine -Men - Witch-Doctors - Sorcerers & Soothsayers etc, all claiming to have insights & contact with a 'Power' - of sorts. So began the blight of Shamanism.

As time unveiled the past, these facts have not been fully appreciated, hence the ensuing rash of Religiosity has not been branded for what it really is - an early conceive, of ignorance & apprehension, perpetuated through millennia by impostors - preying on credulous naivety.

The natural process of evolution, via many devious pious paths, has now landed us with the present crop of Archbishops - Ayatollahs - Rabbis - Popes - Imams - JWs plus a host of other hypocritical sect leaders, incessantly brainwashing the largely unthinking masses with their ridiculous & childish 'Holy Beliefs'.

The Billy Grahams of the World, gifted with gab & showmanship, use their 'bewitching powers' to prey on the gullibility of the artless.

Yes indeed, in modern form, the Witch Doctors are STILL at it. - Mountebanks all!

Starkly, when the brain ceases to function, that 'being' ceases to 'be'.

The motivation driving that unique combination of elements is no more.

A 'Spiritual Future' ????? - - - Pure self-indulgent fantasy!

The chemo-electrical activity of the brain - the MIND - is naturally prone to generate any illusive mirage.

If that imagery is not backed up by factual proof, it remains a fantasy!

To give any credence to life after death, one must be round the bend, if not well up the straight!

Natural cognition (common sense), affirms Life's future as solely dependent on reproduction!

Offspring are our future!
