God is Only in The Garbage
"Who is God?" Actually, this question isn't quite right. Why do I say it's not right? Well, if you ask "Who is God?", you will receive numerous answers according to the many names of God people believe in. Or even dozens of supporting arguments from each sacred text they believe in. Generally, the content of these arguments about God who introduces Himself in each discussion is God's own admission (almost in several scriptures) repeatedly stating there, 'I am your God.' I will not debate about what name or title you use for God. That is your right. However, if you insist that the only correct name for God is the one from your tradition and all others are wrong, then a simple question for you: "Has God ever introduced Himself directly to you by stating His name?" Of course not, right? You know and believe in that name from your religious scripture. And, from the beginning, you were forced to believe in it. I apologize for using the term 'forced,' because you do not have the freedom to reject it. To reject means you depart from your religious belief. Whether you know it or not, understand it or not, feel it or not, that's a matter for later. What's important is the first rule: to have faith in the name of God believed in within the religious tradition you follow. Then you are merely guided to follow a list that explains about God. God’s attributes, what God likes and dislikes, other names for God, God's role, what will be given as rewards and punishments by God. All these things are ready for you to read. 'Ready for use' for all of you. Again, there is nothing wrong as long as you do not force others to believe what you believe. In this writing, I am merely providing my perspective. I do not ask you to agree with my writings. We can discuss and share perspectives, but not blame and force which one is most correct. When you declare arguments that state your view is the most correct, what happens is not sharing perspectives, but arguing fiercely. And when you are blinded by your belief in your 'most correct' argument, then any other perspective will seem wrong to you.
