Many people have a distorted view of religion. Unfortunately, people with an unenlightened view think religion is nothing more than a sociological construct that is used to control people by Machiavellian individuals, who control the wealth. In stating this, I may be a little too presumptuous, as most people I have met would not have a clue of how the world actually functions.
Religion is often confused for politics, because political agendas are promoted surreptitiously in the name of religion. Politics is about people wanting to dominate other people. Politics actually begins in the home, at the family level. A version of a famous comic strip has a female boss yelling at her fellow underling male worker because she is having a bad day; the man goes home and berates his wife; the mother yells at her daughter; the daughter abuses her younger brother; the boy kicks his friendly dog; the dog barks at cat, cat looks for mouse—mouse thinks life is getting harder by the day. Politics has nothing to do with true religion at all.
Marx is famous for having said, “Religion is the opium of the people,” meaning the masses, who are predominately numbered among the poor. When you understand the The Wealth Inequality Problem in The World Today (One Chart), then you understand what Marx was talking about when he meant people. For Marx “people” was a politically correct term (if you like) or a code-word for the masses who rank among the poor. The Credit Suisse Pyramid of Global Wealth Distribution tells the same story.
Those who control the wealth need lackeys, whom they have indoctrinated to create confusion, and whom they can control, so they can control the masses. Government elites, who are compromised by those who pull the their strings—for they are puppets after all—have realized that when people believe in God, this creates major problems. People who actually have a strong belief in God have a hope that atheists do not possess, and this can present a major problem for those who love the god of this world, Lucifer—whose motto is “Life is temporary, enjoy your vanity.”
Lucifer prefers people to believe in humanism unless they are dutiful worshipers of himself. However, humanism means that people can be atheists, be endowed with sufficient I.Q. to believe that there is significance in having a temporary life, and being born to die is replete with eternal meaning. Comfort or status or riches makes up for the brevity of being a Texas turd-blossom.
If a person decides to become serious about religion, then the person will begin to seek the truth about why people are born to die. This is the beginning of wisdom, because the person recognizes that being born to die is evil. There is no meaning for existence in being born to die.
True religion is about you wanting to know the way to the truth that leads to eternal life.
The way to death is obvious, because wise people notice that their ancestors are no longer around; besides, graveyards and burial grounds exist, and these are not called carnival centers or designated places of amusement or entertainment centers.
The truth is we need to know why we exist, if we are to have any meaning in our life. Without the truth there is no meaning, no significance, no worth, no purposeful living—no anything really.
Life is not something that ends. Merely thinking that life is passed on through your semen alone is a misconception: men sodomizing men is not the way to breed, nor do women pass life on by themselves. Even the naturally endowed means for human life to be reproduced is insufficient to justify a meaningful temporary existence as something for which to yearn. The point becomes more poignant, especially, when people like myself have the assurance of eternal life, after having earnestly sought out God to know the truth.
Atheists can believe whatever they want to believe, there is no need to fight them. We all have to answer to the Creator of the Universe. Death has everybody’s number. Grim reapers are real and really do come for those who reject the truth and the hope of eternal life. In fact, two of them turn up to take scoffers to their eternal destination, which is not paradise, but a place where each one can relive what happened on Earth without the relief of the good moments.
Unless people accept that Jesus of Nazareth died on the cross for the sin of the world, so people can be reconciled to the Heavenly Father, there is no hope. Of course, unless people believe that God raises the dead, there is no hope for them either. If Jesus did not rise from the dead, merely having faith in His death is of no value.
Atheists may think that it is vain to enter into a relationship with Lord Jesus Christ, the only person of whom it is testified that He LIVES—because He rose from the dead. Since, death reigns, there is no need to fight atheists, as the only enemy they have is the Creator, whom they desire to make their enemy because hate to acknowledge HIM Who LIVES—which according to the Bible is tantamount to murder, and worthy of eternal punishment.
