Richard Dawkins, Existence of God Pt. II
Published:
I present you with the following story.
A man is praying at his bedside, while an angel appears. The angel says that he will lead the man to a place in upstate New York, by a hill, where the man will find under ground, a book, and that there are 2 stone wheels next to the book which the decoding information is embbeded, will enable the man to decipher the words in the book.
After deciphering the book with those two wheels, the angel takes the wheels away with him.
The translation reads that millions of Jews (after jesus' original death 2000 years ago), lived in upstate New York, built a great city, with armies fighting each other, and that Jesus came to visit them during this tribulation.
Do you believe what I just wrote? Of course not. Why? Because first, we know that Jews didn't live in upstate New York a thousand or so years ago. We have no proof of any debris left over from that civilization.
Well...it might sound rediculous to you and me, right?...But just ask any Mormon, and I'll bet they'll spend 4 hours explaing in detail about that event. I know...My sister was a Mormon, and went on a misiion for almost 2 years...
Imagine a bubble with the Mormon religion on the inside of that bubble. Next imagine christians outside the bubble looking at the Mormons on the inside of the bubble as lunatics. Do you see where I'm going with this?
Next we have a story about an Arab who was praying and an angel revealing himself to him. The mans's name was Mohamad. The angel was Gabriel. Gabriel supposedly created a magical horse, and flew him to heaven. Spiritual guides acting as scribes wrote down everything in a book we all know as the Qur'an. Martyrs are taught that if they act out as such, by giving their lives up in the name of God, they will receive 72 virgins in heaven as a reward.
Now put the muslims in a bubble. Imagine all those Mormons, christians, Jews, look at the inhabitants within the bubble thinking they must be crazy people to believe in those myths.72 virgins? Magical horses? C'mon...they're nuts!
If you were in Denmark back in the Viking days, you might be adorning Thor with his hammer. Or if you were born in Africa, you would believe in the Ju JU that lives on the mountain.
Someone asked me, well....what if you're wrong?
My reply was that, what if you're wrong about the JU JU that lives on top of that mountain?
I think myself as more of an Agnostic, hoping that there is a God, but having no evidence.
More rantings to come from a blog i'm on...LOL
BTW! Enjoy the following video...Very objective this Oxford Professer, Richard Dawkins. Even though his title is portrayed as an Athiest, he has in many occasions stated that he is really an Agnostic, because a fair minded scientist will always leave room for doubt. Honesty is important, contrary to religion, which they make known widely, that they have the end all to the truth.

Sometimes when you're on a roll, you don't want to impede it with semantics. Just explain it later.
P.S. Richard Dawkins was featured on South Park this past season.
His point wasn't about having a back up plan as you say. Covering his butt. It's that you must be accountable e world's religions if your going to do it the right way. So when someone asks me ....What if I'm wrong? Dawkins says...." What if I'm wrong about Thor's teachings, or what if I'm wrong about Ju JU, and on...
If someone asks a person, What if you are wrong? The person will ask the same question. What if you are wrong? That is the basis of the whole thing. Can I expect to be punished if i don't follow the rules of Thor?
Can I be expected to suffer for eternity or whatever, if I don't accept the jewish religion?
Can I be expected to suffer? Which one is correct? You can't answer that. And i don't blame you for not being able to.
If someone is going to ak me that it's possible that my belief system is wrong, I will in turn ask them the same question. Very simple!
The answer is not within our grasp in this existence, we gotta wait and see, that is the basis of faith. By having faith in something you believe while you are alive is totally cool no matter what it is. It makes living worth living, and if it doesn't happen the way you thought no biggie, you're just gone. You become a memory to those you touched while you were alive, and then they become memories, and so on and so forth....
