I do not think there can be a more foolish thing than the
Christian beliefs. They believe God created the first parents out of His
immense love. But He put them to a test and they failed. The loving God immediately
opened the gates of hell and started roasting the souls of men, women and
children for all eternity. God is not moved by their agony or screams but
pushes them down into the nether depths of fire to suffer, suffer and suffer.But He is love itself!
Christians believe God created us to know Him, love Him and gain
eternal reward by using our freewill. Demographics suggest that about half of all children born so far have died before they
reached 15- when perhaps they become accountable to what they do. What is the purpose
in creating billions and billions of children and killing them as infant, toddler,
children and teens? Why does He create the mentally retarded, imbeciles, the psychotic
and the feeble minded who cannot even know what God expects of them? If God
is rewarding them heaven-without any merit from their side, why the hell He insisted
on a Test from the first parents to prove their loyalty and brought in all the
evil?
He could have forgiven them--after all Eve was tempted by the
serpent God had set upon her for the purpose. But instead, God has been sending
natural calamities-quakes, tempests, cyclones, floods, volcanic eruptions,
famines, plagues of all kind to kill millions of people with all their dreams
each year. God has been sending horrendous
diseases like cancer, diabetes, BP, cardiac arrest and so many others and He
has released deadly viruses like AIDS to make man suffer, suffer and suffer.
Why did He reveal Himself to a small tribe of semi-stupefied
nomads to the exclusion of all the others? He killed entire armies of Canaanites
in the worst ethnic cleansing ever witnessed in the history of the world to
settle His chosen tribe. Where is the universality
of God’s love in this story? He should be a mad demon to kill His own children
for the sake of a few others He had chosen as His own. Only a stupid person will
reveal what he wants to a minuscule tribe leaving all others in the dark. How does
this God expect people to do His will when they do not know what He wants?
Muslims believe their religion and their god is the true one. Jews believe theirs
is the truth. Christians think Christianity is the way to God. Buddhists,
Hindus Jains all follow their faiths thinking theirs are true.
There cannot be anything more foolish than the teaching that
God Almighty sent His only son (who is his wife?) to die for the sins of man. A
simple nod of His little finger --if He is anthropomorphic--was enough to do so. Much easier, he could have
simply forgiven the first parents’ simple disobedience and the entire mankind would
have been free of the Original Sin. It’s more foolish to think Almighty God
walked through the rugged terrains of Palestine to get struck, scourged and
crucified! I do not think any writer/poet or dreamer has ever woven more fictitious
stuff than what is in the Bible.
It's foolish to believe that God will forgive the sin, when he never forgave women for a mistake commited by the 1st woman on earth.
