The Tragic Sense of Life in Humans and in Peoples on Eternity of the World Part I

 

My personal feeling is that we have lost all trust. I cannot be with you again, do not remind me of all the good times that we had. Learned a lot from us instead, I never want these feelings to ever come again. You will never hear me crying, you will never see e trying, to love you once again your love is so past tense. People do not tell me that you have changed, do not want to hear on how you have lost your evil ways. The one who has changed this time is me, and I do not want to go back to feeling helpless and deceived. To think you have me fooled every now and then. You had me believing that I was the reason that you left, but I will not fall back in love with you again. I do not want to be your friend. Serval factors have become important factors. It has become an embarrassment trying to convince the World that something is good, when they see imagines and hear stories, on the daily bases, that contradict my devotion. The internal balance of power seems to be off kilter, and you have such a tight grip. And while many are alarmed by the developments you tend to minimize the significance. You do not comment on these things nor take action as if they are sub iudice, you understand what I mean. Sub iudice, of course means, “under judicial consideration.” #RyanPhillippe 1 of 9

 

God, infinitely transcends every finite being. When we say, for example, “God is love,” or “God is Life,” the words “love” and “life” are used symbolically, not literally. They were originally introduced in connection with segments of finite experience, and when applied to God, they cannot have the same meaning that they have in ordinary situations. God is all-powerful, all-loving, infinitely good, perfectly just and so on. When God is referred to as the creator (or ground) of the Universe. The Universe is absolutely depended on God so that it would ease to exist if God were not sustaining it. One will notice as time goes on, and people are taught that there is no such thing as normal, do not go to church, and no longer pray in schools that society is becoming more and more corrupt and the World does seem to be unraveling. People no longer worship God, instead they worship money, status, and material things. “For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows,” reports 1 Timothy 6:10. While we need money to live, it should not be something that we worship and love more than honesty and human life. Such a fleshless abstraction cannot be the answer to the cravings of the human heart. Only God can be the loving God to whom we come by the way of love and of suffering. #RyanPhillippe 2 of 9

At one time being an atheist was viewed as walking down a path of decay and disaster, it was seen as a hideous position to adopt by depraved people, and a horrible catastrophe that might spread over the human race. Atheist were seen as people who could not be a true friend, an affectionate relation, or a loyal subject. They were seen as weak, staggering, and special theists and that their philosophy would bring with it hopeless national ruin. An atheist is a person who maintains that there is no God, that is, that the sentence “God exists” expresses a false proposition. The terms atheist and godless are still frequently used as terms of abuse. Nevertheless, there are relatively few people nowadays in whom the thought of atheism and atheists arouses unspeakable horror. It seems oaths and promises are no less trustworthy than those of other people, and in most civilized lands atheists have the same or nearly the same rights as everyone else. Some of the World’s foremost philosophers, scientists, and artists have been avowed atheists and the increase in atheism has been very closely connected as part of the same process. Even spokesmen of the most conservative religious groups have in recent years conceded that atheism may well be a philosophical position that is adopted for the noblest of reasons. #RyanPhillippe 3 of 9

Some people believe that since prayer has been removed from school, American has plummeted from righteous living, prosperity, and success. As you might have already noticed, America’s moral decline rapidly accelerated following the U.S. Supreme Court’s removal of prayer from our nation’s schools on 25 June 1962, as over 32 million students were forbidden to call on the name of the Lord. American’s have been praying to God since the founding of our nation. In fact, America was thought to be a government implemented by God. However, people still believe that life without God need not be bestial, unintelligent, or immoral, and that atheism can be serene and deeply human. And that we should have dialogue with atheists that is truly human and mutually respectful. Yet, one cannot ignore that fact that since God has been removed from government buildings, and schools, society has gotten more violent. There have been 196 school shootings since 2013. There were 372 mass shootings in the United States of America in 2015, killing 475 people, and wounding 1,870. #RyanPhillippe 4 of 9

 It is not to say that atheists are doing these shootings necessarily, but many people believe having kids pray to God in school made them believe in a higher power and understand that there would be moral consequences for their behavior, and since prayer has been removed from school, there is no fear. School is mandatory, but church was not, so this was a center to indoctrinate children and without this indoctrinate, they have been led astray and no longer believe in a higher power. Pope Paul VI, in his encyclical Ecclesiam Suam, observed that some atheists were undoubtedly inspired by “greathearted dreams of justice and progress” as well as by “impatience with the mediocrity and self-seeking of so many contemporary social setting.” Atheists may not have needed religion in school, but it seems it may have been a great way of controlling the masses. In France, until the Revolution (1789-1799), and in most other countries until some time later, it was illegal to publish works in defense of atheism, and in fact real or alleged atheists were subject to dire persecution throughout the times of Christian domination. #RyanPhillippe 5 of 9

Some of the World’s greatest philosophers were among those who advocated and in some instances actively promoted the persecution of atheists. The story antedates Christianity, and persecution of atheists was already advocated in Plato’s Laws. Plato divided atheists into several groups, all of which must be punished; but whereas members of some groups required no more than admonition and imprisonment, those belonging to others deserved punishment exceeding one death or two. And many believed the people who did not believe in God should be shut off from the World by death. Some argued that such a course is justified since it surely is a much more serious matter to corrupt faith, though which comes the soul’s life, than it is to forge money, through which temporal life is afforded. If, as is just, forgers of money and other male factors are straightway put to death, it is all the more just that heretics be not only excommunicated but also put to death. “I’m still alive but I’m barely breathing. Just prayed to a God that I don’t believe in. ‘Cause I got time while she got freedom. ‘Cause when the heart breaks, no, it don’t break even,” (Breakeven by The Script). #RyanPhillippe 6 of 9

I personally have never met an atheist and I find that I pray to God more and more and mention God more frequently than in the past because it has been proven, by the law of attractions, that what one focuses on tends to manifest in their reality, and God is supposed to be an all God being that will rewards us for living a good life and make our soul immortal. However, in the past Baron d’Holbach’s The System of Nature was falsely a attributed in its first edition to Mirabuad, a former secretary of the French Academy who had been dead for ten years. Very shortly after its publication in 1770, it was condemned to be burned by public hangman after a trial in which the public prosecutor expressed his regret that he could not lay his hands on the unknown real author, adding that the corruptions of moral evident in almost all sections of society was probably due to the spread of ideas like those contained in the condemned book. When the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley was an undergraduate at Oxford, he published a short and very temperate pamphlet entitled The Necessity of Atheism. This at once aroused a violent protest which resulted in the burning of all undistributed copies and in the expulsion of Percy Shelly and his friend Thomas Hogg from the university. #RyanPhillippe 7 of 9

Some years later, Percy Shelly was judicially deprived of the custody of his children on the ground that he was likely to inculcate the same [atheistic] principles upon them. As late as 1877, Annie Besant, the noted social reformer, was judged to be unfit to take care of her children on the same ground, although the judge admitted that she has been a care and affectionate mother. Until the passing of the Evidence Amendment Act of 1869, unbelievers in Great Britain were considered incompetent to give evidence in a court of law. Atheists were thus in effect unable to sue when they were victims of fraud or slander. However, some people believe those within the church tend to be corrupt. The process had already started happening when the doctrinal congregation was systematically processing sex abuse cases. Pope John Paul, in a crucial but unpublicized document, had defined sexual abuse of minors as one of the graviora delicta (more serious crimes), and had been given the doctrinal office authority over all such accusations around the World. Among these cases now was Father Maciel’s. Ironically, the turning point came shortly after the gala celebration of Father Maciel’s sixtieth anniversary as priest. There were cases of abuse dating back as many as thirty years, and the sex abuse cases were especially egregious. #RyanPhillippe 8 of 9

Reporters sometimes joked about the cloned good looks of Legionary priest and the fact that they tended to show up in pairs when invited anywhere outside their religious headquarters (they could police each other is temptation arose). However, imagine how much worse some of these people in the church would be if they did not have God in their lives. The voice at the other end of the phone was gaining speed, straining my note-taking skills, and the speaker’s heavy accent did not make things any easier. However, what he was telling me had me spellbound. He believed that there was a place for God in civil society. All the believers in question have characterized God as a supreme personal being who is the creator or the ground of the Universe and who, whatever his other attributes may be, is at the very least immensely powerful, highly intelligent and very good, loving, and just. People frequently adopt an attitude of rejection toward apposition for reasons other than that it is a false proposition. The atheist does not say, “there is no God,” but one says, “I know not what you mean by God; I am without idea of God; the word ‘God’ is to me a sound conveying no clear or distinct affirmation. The Bible God I deny; the Christian God I disbelieve in; but I am not rash enough to say there is no God as long as you tell me you are unprepared to define God to me.” #RyanPhillippe 9 of 9
