Multimedia in class thoughts on religion
I most likely sound like i am talking out of my arse when i speak about life and what my beliefs are. I don’t want you to think i don’t notice this part me. Whats going on in my head is me trying to see things as they really are, they are not always right and i do not always see them. I try my best to use logic and present my thoughts in a non-monotonous way. So, I try not to sound like a prat because i sometimes do but im doing my best.
In multimedia me and Felix walked out quietly towards the end of the lesson to share some lunch we didn’t in our lunchtime, totally benign of what conversation we would strike up. Religulous the movie is still very much in our heads and I came up with a thought about human behavior. Its likely to be crap but I don’t know.
Here goes… Humans consciously choose to believe in religion unless you were born into religion in that case you would take the things you hear as true because you have no reason to think you are being lied to. BUT for those who make the conscious decision (this is my theory I came up with) make the decision because they think they are being open minded. When someone instantly shuts down an idea for what ever reason, say because its plainly ridiculous to them, that can be considered a negative trait. So when people are down and feeling weak emotionally, they hear what the priests preach or are familiar with the words of ‘god’. These things they hear do now not seem so silly. There are so man people who believe , its not like you would be alone if you choose to follow a religion. You would be one little fish in a big pond. How could so many people believe in something that actually is fake? So you take on the beliefs thinking you are being open minded. You are not one of those people who just shut down thoughts and progress. And you are special, you have found god and there are millions of people behind you in your quest for finding god.
You were deluded and you were weak to let down your guard to such beliefs. Nonsense really. You thought you were being open minded but all you did was neglect your better judgement. bravo.
