When we are born everywhere in this world gives you a birth certificate which has the RELIGION of the newly born. How come the baby has a religion when it is just born ?
Divisions of all sorts are creating too many issues that humans struggle to deal with everyday. Races, colors, religions and territorial issues. We are talking about globalization and yet we demarcated areas and rule them as a territory belong to a certain clan. Could true globalization ever come real where we can freely move anywhere we wish and settle anywhere we prefer without having any restriction such as race or religion except for legal considerations that are set to improve quality of life?
Our birth certificates have our race and religion on it which sometimes I think is not fair by newborn. Religion out of all is the most unfair factor on our birth certificate as religion is about individual belief. It is not your mother's or father's or someone else's but yours.
Is it fair to say you must follow your mother's or father's belief? What is the use having it if parents come from different religions and you know its quite possible to change over time? Having governing principles and ethics is great. Having a religion is great so that it can discipline people more often with fear. Sometimes a little fear is good when you are not very capable of realizing the ultimate truth. Fear for god or for hell is better when you cannot separate what is right from wrong, what is good from bad and what is humane from evil.
The real question is, has religions succeeded in disciplining the world enough ? Have religions met the expectations mankind set? Where did religions go wrong? For what the religions are used today and by whom?
We would love to hear your view. Let us know what you think of these questions.
