When
you do the wrong things or engage
yourself in evil deeds, you try to cover
up the same with a hope not to be exposed. Once you ascertain the situation and
feel confident that no one is able to catch, you get relaxed. You become
somewhat addicted to performing many wrongdoings. Gradually, a time will come
that you will always give preference for wrong against right. It becomes your
habit. But one thing you will never understand that you can be spared by
everybody, but not by God. You cannot sneak away from Him. He is watching you all
the time, whether you know or not. 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 own power of work, diligence, intelligence
and deceiving others. They think that if they perform wrongly, 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 the power of God, but for that matter, he need not to be religious
or a believer of any religion in toto. One can accept the nitty-gritty of his
religion and can focus on the creeds of the same and remembering God in all his
endeavors. The atheists argue that some of the great people of the world did
not believe in God. In support of their statement, they say that very many
heinous crimes and some of the worst deeds are committed taking the shelter of
God. 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 shooter when 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 mental 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 psychological 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 the same group
would help each other to engage in conflicts with other groups of different
religions just 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 with the relatives, friends
and close associates will be always there.
This religious bonding is always encased in the name of God 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.
Now-a-days,
it is quite common that one religious
group and its sub-groups are cleverly getting engaged with other
religious groups and sub-groups in
quarrels, fights and sometimes killing the people 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. 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 because of 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 outlook.. Under the shelter of religion, they carry out their evil
deeds, kill the humanity, destroy the civilization and increase the rampant
nepotism. Ultimately, these religious 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. Do you accept this philosophy?
