Let me clear up my motives in writing my blog and website. Let me explain what it is not. It is NOT my purpose to “fight” Christianity or any other religion. There are many religious people who are sincere and do great work helping their fellow man. Religion obviously has had great value for many people in spite of the negative results for humanity as a whole. Atheism is often believed to be a religion and that creates a great misunderstanding. Atheism is a declaration that one does not belief in a God. It should mean nothing else. I know many atheists who are as diverse in their worldview as their religious counterparts. There are Capitalists, Socialists, Communists, Libertarians, Free Thinkers and many other kinds of atheists. There are Honest Brokers, Thieves, con-men as well as Volunteers in Ebola camps and people who sacrifice themselves to help others. In the end I would predict that the percentage of “good” and “bad” people is proportionally the same in Atheism as in religious circles. The conclusion to draw is that a non-religious world would suffer the same fate as a totally religious one because of Human nature. We suffer from the old primitive drives to preserve our tribe, once very successful, which has assured the dominance of one group of humanlike races by wiping out the competition. The sooner we realize that we are the only human-like race left and are not any more in competition to survive but that survival now depends on mutual cooperation, the sooner we will be able to live together in peace and prosperity.
What then do I have in mind. Forget Atheism, it is just a narrow definition and not a religion that will solve our problems as some of us think. I call myself a non-believer. A true NON-BELIEVER has CONCLUDED (do not use the word “belief” here) by examining all the currently available evidence that the SUPERNATURAL does NOT exists. Yes it will affect not only religions but also political theories. We can throw out most of the ancient “laws” and will have the duty to created “rules” which benefit ALL of humanity, no matter what color of skin, what kind of handicap, what level of intelligence or mental health we encounter. We can protect people from the pseudo scientist who take advantage of gullible people, the Snake Oil doctors, the “mediums”, the Faith healers, the “leaders” who promote prayer over proven medical treatments and as a results curable children die unnecessary. Hopefully there will come a time that our children refuse to go and kill other fellow humans because of their nations’ (or corporations) commercial interest.
Lately, neuro-science research indicates that when the brain dies, awareness dies with it, making the possibility of an afterlife a moot point. I will follow the research closely. We are now at the point were evolution is overwhelmingly accepted by the worlds scientists of any religion. Yes, I know, Ken Ham and his ilk will never admit that creationism is untenable, we after all, also still have a flat earth society and a Geocentric Group who believe the universe circles around our earth once a day. There’s money to be made folks!
Let me repeat. It is the belief in the supernatural, which we have to fight. There are many books written and many great thinkers have talked this subject convincingly, but I find that, outside academic circles, there is lack of communication with the average population while we are inundated by Mediums, Astrologers, Faith healers and Snake Oil salesman on the web and television. TV productions and movies also give the impression that the supernatural exists and exploit the public time after time.
How do we counterbalance that? I try but don’t know how to reach enough people to counterbalance that. A ghost or UFO picture that shows a light smudge on a photo-shopped photo gets 1 million or more views. How do we spread our message? Please share and recommend my website.
