Some drivel first.

When we die, we get taken over by nature’s crude game of ‘recycling’ and continue to ‘live’ in one form or another – a process as indefinite as life is.

Your dead body rots away and this feeds bugs, insects which breed or die, and then are subsumed.  The broken down mass of your flesh fertilises the ground, allowing plants to grow.

The atoms that make up your body continue in one form or another for ever.

This, everything that is you, apart from conscious thought, lives for ever more.  But there is more to it than just living and dying – there are other sinister motives at play, one of which being to ensure that the genes get passed down through breeding with the better specimens.  And all that game called survival, points to our natural instinct to try and create peace, harmony within the social groups of our species – waging war, causing death is seldom on the card, unless your survival and that of your ‘selfish’ genes are threatened to the point of being neutralised. 

So, do we live then? Yes, for ever for all of those reasons.  Enough of my Darwinist drivels.

So what about God then? Does He exist?  No, only ignorance, superstition do.  And darkness as well  – all of that is fading too as scientific reasoning prevails, albeit at a slower pace.

Whoever invented the concept of religion!  When you look at it as merely a tool to harmonise communities, it can be a good tool.  What I find absurd in this whole ‘god’ thing, or sky faeries interceding in human matters after being telephoned in prayer, by priests, mullahs, and that simply shows, a: just how gullible the masses can be, and b: how an ostensibly noble cause can be subverted by acolytes and those of their ilk who represent all the trappings of power.

My two pence worth – all of it is pure non-sense but hey, there is no harm in spewing it in Sajha now and then as it gives you the much needed release from another of those manic mid-week blues.  And it has been my long time coming in Sajha too, so I for what it is worth, stand ready to be damned and get damned!

Carpe diem
