Made Man, wonder it is....

Oh GOD, please help me solve my problem...
Oh KRISHNA, I need your help...
ALLAH, I seek your advice...
Lord Jesus, I wish to be washed of my Sins...

Blah Blah Blah Blah....Well all said and done, we spend our lives dedicated to "GOD"... I'm not against "GOD" or anything but I find it ridiculous to put faith in something so MAN MADE.. First came the thunder and then the rain. Early man had no idea where this came from.. His thought "something up there is angry with me" As time went on, many a wise men coined this "something" GOD.

Further, different civilizations all made up their own visions of GOD. Then they went one step further and created RELIGION. RELIGION further involved as people became more and more fearing of the paranormal force they called GOD or KRISHNA or ALLAH or JESUS or so on and so forth. The wise men then made use of this fear to create faith in their Visions and be one step above the rest. “I converse with GOD” is all they had to say to turn millions into believers of their preaching.

Proof of this came out in the form of the Bible, Quran, Bhagwad geeta etc… These became the guidelines with which one had to live life. These were the guidelines by which Wise men manipulated society into becoming believers and forming a so-called discipline “RELIGION”, only this time with a structured belief system.

Evolution of this led to the internal turmoil that every country had faced in their early formative years. “Religion” was the means to unify the people and the non-believers were shunned by society at this point of time. This led to the term commonly knows as “holy wars” which we all know is used every so effectively in the Political Game played by countries around the world.

Hence we have people like POPE X, GURU Y, PROPHET Z, SAINT A etc etc etc… who are even more influential then the manipulators of Holy Wars.. Out these people go into the world, preaching their learning’s and understanding of these age old religions. After all “OLD IS GOLD” is a saying.
Coming into the modern evolution of this belief system is a newfound fusion of understanding of Religion called spiritual enlightenment. Something that is taking the world up by storm, irrespective of which religion you believe in. The theory behind this new found word is world religion or religion of one. Here as well we have the umpteen numbers of Guru’s who preach on this newfound word as well.

In the back of their heads the immature wise men curse this newfound self-sustaining word. After all its does distract man from mainstream religion. Now understanding oneself can attain spirituality and not sitting and repeating “Gods” name or reeling in his faith for hours and hours on end, hoping that one-day you shall become the enlightened one. All its takes is faith in yourself and not something man made.

Either ways, at the end of it all “faith” isn’t just in something neither man nor the wise man has seen, but something that everyone feels. “God” doesn’t exist just as ghosts and devils don’t exist. But it’s the fear of all the above that make us believers.
