I believe that being at my age you tend to find out things quick, hard, and fast. You tend to feel as though life is coming at you from all angles and sides, and at light speed, you wish to say “beam me up Scotty, I want this no more!” You tend to come to the realization that around you there are bigger things in the works, you were raced to believe that somewhere, someone somehow put you on this planet blind to the world, has covered your eyes with some invisible, omniscient hands. Covered your eyes to your sins, your mistakes, and covered your eyes to the truth: that you are in control and you are the only one who is, no invisible being is going to guide you, help you, test you, it is you who is in control.
I believe that if someone wishes for something else to take control of their life, commit “thy lord’s most unholy sin” and the government will do so very willingly. I believe that to take control of their own life, they will need to undo the knotted hands which cover their eyes and will need to do away with irresponsibly committing a crime because their belief is that it will grant them access to paradise. If they confess that their eyes are covered and they will receive the best gift one could give them: freedom, responsibility and above all, looking through their eyes at a world that is still blind; with this gift inform the ungifted that their so called spiritual actions don’t seem so noble but seem so childish.
If you ask a child hitting his double digits “do you believe in Santa Claus” the usual response is “no” with a giggle. So why is that something we haven’t seen, felt or heard is so believable. So why is it that the child who is just able to understand simple physic knows if you cannot see it, if you cannot feel or hear it, it cannot be, clearer than a full grown adult? The answer is: the adult’s view and the child’s previous view are similar; it is just that the child finally understand that science is proven in one second and the belief takes a lifetime to prove.
