I have an interesting approach to religion that I would like to share with you guys. In this post, I will cover both sides of religion and try and keep an open mind: The answer lies in the creation of the universe.
The major principal of religion: We were created by God (except in Buddhism and Taoism)
Most religious people believe that there is a god (or several in some cases). The only logical argument I get from any religious person to prove God's existence is that: nothing can come from nothing. They conclude therefore that the earth was created by God, and that we are simply his creation. Most Christians however, never ask themselves the question of the origins of god. Using their logic, God must have an origin too, therefore it is invalid. They often use as another claim that we cannot imagine back infinity years. Using the exact same thought process we could assume that the universe was created infinity years ago and that they can't imagine it's creation.
The only solution that I can find to this issue is through dimensions. Our minds are simply limited to knowing the number we today call: infinity.
The only way we will discover this number is by traveling through dimensions until we finally have a sense of it. Until then, our human minds cannot imagine something existing forever.
Therefore, none of us are correct in terms of our creation; we are both wrong! Nothing does come out of nothing, but nothing can exist forever either. We only have this conclusion because our minds have a mental barrier: There is absolutely nothing that can abide by both of these principals!
Sadly, religion does prove some valid points- To me, religion is something that was intended for people to live a 'morally' satisfying life; it was a way to keep everybody happy. I do believe that the laws of religion are fine to abide by, because living in a world without rules would provoke crime and terror with the corrupt. The only reason people took up religion is because they believed that there was some sort of 'reward' at the end. (i.e: Heaven)
In conclusion, atheists and deists are both wrong because our origin is something that we will never know in our lifetime; and there is no answer to life.
Despite this, let's try and live happy lives for us and those around us. Those who fight over gods are foolish, and will never die happy. Stop the argument, stop the wars and accept the fact that we will never know our destiny..
It's really as simple as that.
