This morning, I keep thinking, so what? about everything. I have answers, too. But, one essential thing, or so I have been taught. Really, if science is true and will uncover things that are, then what does it matter if I choose to believe in a divine Diety?If someone has, let's say, diabetes, and there is a cure, but you already found that managing your blood sugar is making you a better person, so what if you do not need to with the cure?
So it is, with my belief system, sure there are and will always be loopholes to be exploited to the point that many would say (like on FF 7 CC outtakes)you cannot live on that side anymore. I heard the best coment once regarding the Exodus story, wether or not it happened, it is true (or sonething like that). Also, most monumental to me was a story a woman shared of her Grandfather saying that believing a thing makes him a better man, and that feels good, so whether or not it is true would not change his mind, but it is true. That is how I feel when I watch heavily science-based agendas being presented as a replacement. Any fact can be spun to fit inside a belief system, it is just a matter of time or a need to do so. For instance, Christmas means a large Evergreen tree, right? Ok, I do not even feel the need to explain further... I have always believed that things like evolution are no doubt factual and it does not bother the idea of creationism. It is a tool of creation. Take an elevator shaft that is built before elevators have even been invented... or how so many things have been proven "bad" for you, to the point of changing you life around the idea just to have it repealed later.
Oh, I just thought of one, Cigarettes. Bad bad bad! Because they can kill you! But, so can living. And not many chose to quit on that premise. It simply does not motivate or suggest any need for change. Like guns, they kill, right? So what? So does macaroni if used to the purpose of killing.
We have hearf so many times, "Let's agree to disagree." There comes a point where neither side is threatened with the idealogy of another. And Faith is sometjing that might not just happen for a reason. It must be chosen.
