The Unexistance of God

It might seem unnecessary to discuss one of the fundamental questions in our life: Why am I living?. It might not surprise me that you give the wrong answer to that question, but that is not a problem, because to such a big but simple question, no one ever pass to tell the right answer.

The simplistic debate focuses on different views comparing religion and science. The one proclaims the existence of one big man up the sky looking down to us and commanding us what we should been doing. The same big white man with long beard is the reason why we are alive, he is God and he want us to live because he made us.

The other one tells us that our existence is just coincident. There's no reason why we live, we meet every new day just because it just happens. Our physical, mental and spiritual functionality does not dependend on any kind of external power that takes us alive. This view, clearly the scientific one, deny any existence of an extraordinary mysterious power that is much stronger and smarter than us. The human being is the center according to this thought. What we see, discover, think and experience is our reality and our life. We must take the best of it, by enjoying life and investing in the future of our next generation.

I must be honest by admitting that I don't belong home in any of those two ideas. I am a christian, and of course I have some doubts about my believe and religion. It has never been easy for a human being to believe in a thing or something without experiencing its existence.That is also the same by a believe in God. Because that same believe has some serious questions.

One of those questions is probably : Who is God, and where does he live? The same question can collect millions of answers. Let me clarify myself in this discussion by making a clear statement. God is not a physical thing that sits or walks somewhere up around the skies. He is neither here on earth because we can not see, touch, feel or smell him. In that case, God is nothing we know, he is a spirit we can not describe and can never be sure about.

If God is a spirit we can not describe, we always relate him with all good things. Good things for example when someone ask how your day was. When a doctor recovers your father, when a professor shows you a new methods, when a mother take care of her child. All good things represents God. Since God said that we are made by his image, I begin to wonder about 'us being him'. We might just be God. Because we have all characters that God is supposed to have, good charters.

But I have to warn, we must never deny the existence of something bigger. I don't care how you call it or in which religion or spiritual club you are looking for it. We must accept that there is a much stronger power than us. This power may still remain a mystery, we will keep asking questions that will never been answered. Like the one about the reason why you are reading this blog. Was it a destiny or just a coincident? I think both, I don't know!
