Scientists agree that
in an earth like planet life has to be evolved
through random chemical reactions and later, through evolution, reach levels of
advancement. . There will be millions of
earth-like-planets in the universe with life in many of them. And this life will
come to an end with the death of the star which gives the life supporting energy.
Man evolved from the
lower mammals like chimpanzees probably in Africa and later spread out to the
different continents. Geography and climate made him black, white, yellow
colored with myriad physical linguistic and cultural differences. Temperate
areas like northern Europe, Japan, and America advanced more than hot regions
like Africa and Sothern Asia. People are prosperous in the former and poor in the
latter.
As I write this
thousands of children are dying in Somalia, Eritrea, Ethiopia, India,
Bangladesh and many others. A majority
of ll who taken birth here have died before they reached the age of ten or
less. Billions have perished in natural calamities-floods, hurricanes, quakes,
famine, plagues - and in wars fought for gods, religions and nations. Deadly
viruses have been threatening human life. At this moment millions are fighting hunger,
cancer, AIDS, TB, Malaria and dying.
Which god has ever
come to man’s help? Nature and gods have been indifferent to man; they are not concerned
whether he lives or dies whether he is in pain or suffering. Man’s life had
been extremely difficult from the earliest times with scarce food, the fury of
nature, diseases and death.
