After
you do something wrong, you try to ascertain whether you are getting exposed or
not. When you are sure that nobody has caught you, you become elated. Then you
start performing many wrongdoings. You do not know one thing that you can sneak
away from anybody, but not God. He is watching you all the time. But these
types of people do not believe in the power of God. They disown the theory of
God’s illuminating power. They don’t accept that if you pray to God
wholeheartedly, He will assuage you. As
per them, the traditional notion of God is simply theoretical. They say that
human beings can create their own destinies by their power of work, diligence, intelligence
and sincerities. If they do wrong
things, God cannot do anything. Our societies term these people as atheists.
Most
of us, of course, are believers of the existence of God. They may not openly
accept, but they always take His shelter before performing any important work. A logical debate always crops up that one can
accept spirituality, but for that matter, he need not to be religious.
One can accept the nitty-gritty of spiritualities and can focus on the creeds
of the spiritualism without showing any kind of reverence to God. The atheists argue that some of the great people
of the world did not believe in God. They opine that very many heinous crimes and
some of the worst deeds are committed taking the shelter of God. If this
statement comes from a few rational thinkers and religious fanatics, one can
doubt the veracity of the same. But the iota of the truth is that people do all
evil deeds in churches, temples,
pilgrims and holy places. These
non-believers of God argue with logic that how can we continue to accept God as our trouble solver where there is no
scientific proven theory of His
existence. They say as the child grows,
he leaves his childish clothes and so, why can’t we leave our psychological,
emotional and spiritual dependence on God?
They say that the concept of worshipping God by performing Pujas, taking
His blessings and remembering Him in distress and happiness is all creations of
our ancestors.
Just
to make the people frighten and not to deviate from the path of moral living,
this type of mythological and religious dependence was created. For example, if there is a heavy rain with
thundering and lightning, the elders in the family start praying to save
everybody from the disaster. And after a passage of time, when the calamity
stops, the believers get elated that God has stopped the disaster. Those who
worshipped a particular God or religion, formed a group and the members of
which would help each other in conflicts with other groups of different
religions to get the major share of various resources starting from food to
shelters including clothes. As per the
Indian history, where the religion and casteism is very much predominant,
the nepotism, favoring and forming groups by taking the near and dear
will be always there. This religious bonding
is always encased in the name of God just to take the advantage. The atheists
make a protest to this behavior. Though their numbers are less, but whenever
they get a chance, they express negative feelings of Godhood in their forum.
From
the very beginning, one religious group
and its sub-groups are cleverly getting engaged with other religious groups and
sub-groups in quarrels, fights and sometimes
killing their own kin making the existence of God maligned.
The stronger religion has a larger follower and act their power on the weaker religions. These
weaker groups are less in numbers and
the oppressed one.

Fanaticism,
blindly supporting, unquestionable dogma and unflagging faith have become the
benchmark of any religion. People become fanatic and depend on a religion and
if someone passes some odd comments, the situation turns into hatred, fighting
and sometimes creating violence. If you study all the religion’s main creeds
and read the preaching of the noted spiritual masters like Buddha, Mohammad,
Mahavira and Jesus, you will not find any differences. These masters always see oneness amongst
various religions. Some of their mean
minded disciples and followers only created differences and subverted their
teachings to bring division and quarrel.
Today, almost all the differences, fighting, less friendship is because
of wrongly construed of various religions and its tenets. The fundamental
crises between the Hindu and the Muslim and the rise of IS and the killing of
various rationalists in India and neighboring countries by the Hindu and the blasphemies
are complete misunderstanding of the religion and religious books. No religion, ever teaches to kill each other.
On the contrary, they teach to remain together and to show respect for all
religions. In fact, religion must be a
central focus for human beings evolved. Instead of that, it now acts as a
threat because of these fanatics and their over enthusiasm.
So
today, a religion, which is otherwise a sacred thing, gives rise to a threat to
the civilization. It is not centered on the humanity, but is focused on the
fanciful of some obtrusive religious leaders who drastically misinterpret the
religious fervor. Under the shelter of religion, they carry out their evil
deeds, kill the humanity, destroy the civilization and increase the rampant
nepotism. Ultimately, these religions
miscreants spread their wrong activities in the light of religious cum political
improvisation and become a hero for their followers. Many environmental and
social scientists vehemently objected these types of activities and term this
as a violation of a moral code of conduct and ethical living. That is why; some people are completely
averse to accept God and His presence.
They feel that in the name of God, when people can carry out all wrong
doings, what is the need to accept Him and seek His blessings? Under this logic, they don’t believe in the
power of God and His presence.
