| | Do you believe in god?Do you believe in God? For most of you in Myanmar, the answer is 'No'. But for most in Australia (which is where I'm right now) the answer may be 'Yes'. I used to be Anti-god for the last year few years. Or I like to think of myself as my own god i.e. extreme confidence and self-esteem, which might seem crazy a bit. But now my believes have been evolved again. So, I want to discuss about God from a different point of view, how I think about life.
In our philosophy about this world, everything happen for a reason, cause and effect. So you all agree, there must be something that causes our existance. That is when I feel Buddhism is incomplete. It doesn't explain about the origin. So I feel the need to explore more about other concepts. Everything in the world we live look so intentional, i.e. things and events don't really happen in random.
I don't really know much about The Big Bang, neither do I know anything about Genesis. But I know you can't get something out of nothing. So I believe there must be something that causes our existance, and I call that as "God". God may be a life form or a lifeless form. God may have intentionality or not. And God may have self-conciousness or not. There might even be more than one god. I simply believe in a reason or reasons for our existance and I call that "God".
Note that I'm not following any existing religion in this world. I'm just thinking for a logical point of view. Whether one worships God or not is also a different story. So I'm gonna be asking your opinions about God. Do you also believe in God? And why?
Discussing about religions can be offensive. So I'm sorry if my discussion offends you and your believes, and I suggest you don't read further posts. Religion is some ground we lived since we were born, and very important for us.
