Fear Of God

"We can't learn the secrets of life, love and behavior at their deepest core from a book. Books are only stepping stones to open discussion, to bridge the gap of understanding and to perhaps offer a different perspective. The main purpose is to cause us to discover the deeper truths within ourselves, to face ourselves unflinchingly and to have no fear in what we uncover.

The fear of death keeps many in a sort of religious quicksand. Even though they may not agree with what is spewed from the pulpit, they are immobile because they think they will be castigated for going against God. Many zealots preach love when their bloodshot eyes are bulging with the fear of God.

Fish Fight

"Since when did human life become so disposable? It is one thing to love God to the point where you feel loved and protected, but when that love turns to destruction then I question whether it is a love for God or something else disguised as God?

Have some of us lost our sense of purpose? Our sense of God? If certain individuals are living for God and all God has to offer, then how could those same individuals kill for God, essentially killing the God force itself? It is because of God that we live and breathe.

Just like a dog turning on its master, biting the hand that feeds it, God, or the interpretation thereof, obliterates the very thing it created.

Nature often holds a mirror to our behavior. When a Siamese Fighting fish looks at its own reflection, its characteristic aggressive responses are readily elicited by its own reflection in a mirror placed outside an aquarium. Could this be what's happening to us?

Are we intimidated by our own reflection? Afraid of what we see? Is the reason there is so much dissension and debate over God because man is in a quandary as to who God really is?"
