Is There A Purpose?

I just saw an interview with Richard Dawkins, who recently published his newest book: The God Delusion! What I found very interesting in his speech was that he does not believe in any form of "God"! For him, faith in "God" is a big illusion we humans have.

I certainly agree with him in many areas! Our current religion and faith is in wrong hands! Our whole idea of God is wrong. I got only one problem with what Richard Dawkins is saying. His theory puts man in a place where his whole life has no purpose. Now why is that?

Lets take it step by step:

1. Richard Dawkins is saying there is no God, no nothing. We are just a result of evolution. There is nothing that we could call God. Here I disagree.

2. If Richard Dawkins is right than all our life, our world is meaningless. Why?

3. There would be no one to remember us. No one to know what we did with our life. When you die your family will remember you. When Earth dies who will remember you? No one. This means that our civilization didn't exist. That means you did not exist. But while I write this and you read it we do exist! If Earth dies and we all die who will be there to remember us?

4. God will. There would be no purpose to live a life and die and never to be remembered. That's why there is a God who will remember us all after everything has died. This is why God is all and we are all a part of him. This is why He knows everything.

5. I am not saying Jesus is God, or Allah or Buddha or anyone, I think these guys are just some very powerful souls which came on Earth, but in no way they are God.

To make it sort: we exist, so God exists. We die, but God will always remember us. This is why we live, what would be the point of life if you died and there would be no one to know you lived.

So you see there is a God. Without one everything you did, saw, felt, heard would have no value because once you die it is dead. And I am certain life has a purpose, but how can life have a purpose if you and Earth will die? Something is wrong here. Death is not the end.

And no we do not go to Heaven or Hell. Why come on Earth live a life and then spend all eternity in Heaven or Hell? Why not live an eternal number of lives? All of which will be remembered by your soul and God.

So you see, Richard Dawkins is wrong in one fundamental aspect! There is purpose to life, we do exist, so that make me 100% sure that there is a God somewhere, who will always remember what you did. This gives you purpose and faith.

An Inconvenient Truth!

This film is something people must see and learn about. The future of Earth and us is at stake. An Inconvenient Truth is a documentary film about climate change, especially global warming, directed by Davis Guggenheim and starring former United States Vice President Al Gore. The documentary is based largely on a multimedia presentation that Gore developed over many years as part of an educational campaign on global warming.

Just Some Words!

I've come to a conclusion. The existence of this blog shows me that a change in how I see life occurred. Only reading along the titles you can see that the subjects with who I came in contact are not very popular among the general media.

This is not all. What is interesting for me is to think on how I saw life before I made this blog (that's before the 1st of May 2006). There were so many answers or no answers. After many days or you can say years (well these are questions which many would say have no answers, but that is impossible since the existence of the question makes the answer available) I came to a conclusion. I never took an answer as the only possibility. Like the Bible for example. I always felt the Bible missed something. And in truth it does! I read many things, some are so crazy that I can't believe I read them. Now lets just name a few changes:

1. Before I never really knew where we came from, we as a species?

a) The Bible is right in one aspect, we were created.
b) Darwin is also right, there is evolution.
c) The proper question would be: When were we created?
d) It is certain we were not created when the dinosaurs were alive or before that (~65 million years ago).
e) We are new to Earth from an evolution point of view.
f) There is a big gap between apeman/apewoman and Homo Sapiens Sapiens. The missing link.
g) That gap is between 1.500.000 - 300.000 years ago.
h) Something happen in that time because 1.5 million years ago there was the apeman and after 300.000 we can find early Homo Sapines Sapiens bones.
i) Evolution will not make the apeman into Homo Sapiens Sapiens in ~1 million years, it needs a lot more.
j) So god came between 1.5 million years ago and 300.000 years ago on Earth and made us. Again the Bible is wrong here. God did not made us when he made Earth and the world. If he is the same one, he came very late on Earth to make us (Earth was formed 4-5 billion years ago).

2. Before I never really knew who is God?

a) The Bible is wrong when it says that we as a species were created by God.
b) The god we know from the Bible is not the one who made this Universe, Earth and everything else.
c) Our "god" but better said the one who made us is just a very advanced civilization. And it is not god but "gods". The Greek mythology would make sense now.
d) The true God and the only Person or "Energy" who can be named God with a capital "G" is the First Creator, the one who made everything.
e) In a way you can say we were made by God since we are all a part of his creation, even the gods which made us.

3. What's the difference between body and soul?

a) What God the First Creator did create was souls, life and consciousness.
b) The body is just a way for the soul to experience life.
c) The body is what the gods who made us created.

4. Why did God made us, our souls?

a) He was alone and only one consciousness.
b) He choose to split that consciousness in many souls and create the world (all the Universes, time, space, everything).
c) He wanted souls to experience life and one day all souls would come back to Him and become One again.
d) When a soul learns everything, he can go back to God and become One with it.
e) You are a soul.

5. Why did the gods made us and who are they?

a) They are souls like us, made by God.
b) They discovered Earth and its riches.
c) They were a very advanced civilization.
d) They needed gold from Earths mines.
e) The gods were sick of working in the mines and seeked solutions.
f) They saw and analyzed the apeman and his potential in helping with the work in the mines.
g) He would become the new Homo Sapiens Sapiens.
h) We are the result of apeman DNA and godly DNA.
i) The gods left came back and left again.
j) They destroyed us, remade us, made us better, etc. (Flood from the Bible).

6. Before I never really knew if we are alone in the Universe?

a) Since God is there we are not alone.
b) The gods who made us are not dead and we are not alone.
c) There are thousands of other civilizations in this Universe.
d) Not even our gods know everything.
e) Some say that not even God knows everything. He might be only a bigger soul.
f) There is a high chance that this Universe is just one from many, many Universes.
g) Consciousness and life comes is all sizes and shapes and bodies!

7. Is there a purpose to life?

a) We are all souls and we all have a purpose in this life.
b) This is not our first life.
c) Souls are beyond time and space.
d) This life is just one lesson and experience.
e) Our body is a tool for the soul to experience life on this Earth.

8. What about Earth? Is She just a planet?

a) Earth is a living being.
b) She is a soul in a planet body.
c) Big souls can become stars and planets.
d) We are all connected to Earth and She needs our love and respect!

9. I always felt that we are controlled and manipulated.

a) I was right. We are controlled by God, the gods and our leaders.
b) We think we are free as long as we don't know that we are in a prison.
c) We are the biggest danger to us.
d) Knowledge has been forbidden, since the invention of religion.
e) Religion is another tool for control and manipulation.
f) God will never come to your rescue. You alone must experience what it is needed for you to evolve. Time is of no importance. You can live the same life as many times as you need until you can proceed forward.

10. I feel like one day I will do the same thing as today and look back and see how little I knew.

a) This is not all, this is just 1% of what we should know about our world.
b) Much can be lies to further make us unaware of the truth.
d) There are more questions left unanswered.
e) Many answers to simple and hard questions are in front of our eyes each day.
f) Love is an answer to many questions.
g) All you need to see and feel will be given to you by life and karma.
h) Finally, we are all eternal and all knowing, we just have to discover it.

We're All Prisoners!

Read this, if you are from US you should act as fast as possible!

Forget no-fly lists. If Uncle Sam gets its way, beginning on Jan. 14, 2007, we'll all be on no-fly lists, unless the government gives us permission to leave-or re-enter-the United States.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (HSA) has proposed that all airlines, cruise lines-even fishing boats-be required to obtain clearance for each passenger they propose taking into or out of the United States.

It doesn't matter if you have a U.S. Passport - a "travel document" that now, absent a court order to the contrary, gives you a virtually unqualified right to enter or leave the United States, any time you want. When the DHS system comes into effect next January, if the agency says "no" to a clearance request, or doesn't answer the request at all, you won't be permitted to enter-or leave-the United States.

Consider what might happen if you're a U.S. passport holder on assignment in a country like Saudi Arabia. Your visa is about to expire, so you board your flight back to the United States. But wait! You can't get on, because you don't have permission from the HSA. Saudi immigration officials are on hand to escort you to a squalid detention center, where you and others who are now effectively "stateless persons" are detained, potentially indefinitely, until their immigration status is sorted out.

Why might the HSA deny you permission to leave-or enter-the United States? No one knows, because the entire clearance procedure would be an administrative determination made secretly, with no right of appeal. Naturally, the decision would be made without a warrant, without probable cause and without even any particular degree of suspicion. Basically, if the HSA decides it doesn't like you, you're a prisoner - either outside, or inside, the United States, whether or not you hold a U.S. passport.

The U.S. Supreme Court has long recognized there is a constitutional right to travel internationally. Indeed, it has declared that the right to travel is "a virtually unconditional personal right." The United States has also signed treaties guaranteeing "freedom of travel." So if these regulations do go into effect, you can expect a lengthy court battle, both nationally and internationally.

Think this can't happen? Think again. It's ALREADY happening. Earlier this year, HSA forbade airlines from transporting an 18-year-old a native-born U.S. citizen, back to the United States. The prohibition lasted nearly six months until it was finally lifted a few weeks ago. Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union are two countries in recent history that didn't allow their citizens to travel abroad without permission. If these regulations go into effect, you can add the United States to this list.
