Morality

19 06 2009

First, morality means a code of conduct which is held to be authoritative in matters of right and wrong. Morals are created and defined by society, philosophy, religion or individual conscience. in this description it pertains to a person who deals in his/her life decisions whether it is right or wrong.

Now, the question is “Does morality can only came up and teach by the religions or it can only be learned as you experience living in your life?”.

Many people said that the religions are the one that teaches morality and they are the root of it. i admit that when i was a child, the church teaches me moralities through the stories that had been written on the bible, but as  a  child i can be easily fooled by the book that i haven’t read. the bible stated the ten commandments so that there will be a base or root of morality among christians. thats why christians are feared to disobey the commandments.

As i grow i learned how to decide, to move freely, and study on where does my morality came up. i remember the video of Sam Harris had stated ” Which is more moral helping the poor, feeding the hungry, defending the weak at the mere concerned for their well being or doing so because the creator of the universe wants you to do it?”. in this statement i realize that  my morality was from myself and no ordered or dictated what do i have to do.

As my answer to the question, my morality is rooted from religion but i learned the most of my morality by experiencing life. i help people beacause i want to, not just lying to myself and i’m happy about it. this is the morality that i gain from education, in life, in social and in my family.




Truth About Gods

11 06 2009

They say that gods creates the world and god creates the man. In my understanding the world creates man and the man creates the gods. This phrase is only my philosophical ideas that came up when I research about the gods of all religions even the mythical gods that came up with ancient people.

Based on what I have read, research, and scientifically thinking, why ancient people create god on their own? Do ancient people see the true god or is it only their imagination that came up to their mind. Or maybe stories that have been made by a single person that have been foretold to the other people and they believe in the story and make it like real.

Myth gods are all same as other gods it is because they are all created by a human mind. They are not real; it only serves as a symbol to create peace, order, prosperity, and power to inspire people as they live to do more than they can do. An example is the pyramid and temples of Greeks and Egyptians they can’t do those structures if they don’t have faith and will in life.

The religions nowadays can be compared from the religions from the past. But, because of so many religions in our generation people are confuse about their faith. If there’s no faith there’s no will that’s why many people are becoming sick, beggars, and poor. If a human have faith and has no will they can’t get what they to want to attain in life. It is a vice versa of faith and will, these must be equal to attain your goal in life.

Why people nowadays still believe in a god if they knew that there was no god? It is because they make the god as their symbol of faith even though they can’t see it. They make god as their source of power of their faith. Even if people believe in other religions they don’t question their god. They all use their hearts as a symbol of faith and their mind as a symbol of will.




What is God?

if i could describe a God,, its myself… Why? it just because i can love people, i can create things, and i can do whatever i do. there is no proven evidence that there is a god. it might be created by some ignorance people in the time that their knowledge is incomparable with us now…. the christianity can be most likely with the false gods of Greeks… Just a story that passes through generations……… no specific evidence that makes the story in a book to be real.. its just a story fiction…

religions nowadays is the biggest and the longest living business in the history.. their charismatic words and some humanitarian activities that makes people to believe, and when the people is being hooked up with them that’s the time they make donations.. then the people will give their all money or properties just to save them from evil and to have salvation. all of these properties of the people comes from the sweat of their difficuties in their work.. just think of it…

in logical thinking we can say that these religions had their god of their own so if christians has one god, Muslims has one allah and Buddhism has one buddha, so whose the true god??? does the only god knows that it has many competitors?

i’m not saying that i am an atheist (a non believer of god) i’m only thinking of what is the appropriate way to believe in some manners. that’s why i consider myself as a god,, we can be a god to others if we perform humanism (active belief in the value of human life). just do what is best, know what is right and wrong, and we have a free will to do anything.
