Divergent Chaos

Of Fate and Faith

Believers vs Atheist vs Agnostics

This hidden war has been raging on since man became aware of who he is.

Believers argued that a god or group of gods created our existence for all kind of purposes.
Atheists, however, declines the belief in a supreme being that determines the fate of everything. They argued that man is a product of science and evolution, of random events and nature’s tendencies.
Agnostics..denies that humanity is still incapable of understanding such thoughts.

I, on the otherhand, stands temporarily as a 4th faction of humanity to act as mediator to the other 3 parties. I won’t  be biased to any of their reasoning. It it important to take every aspect of humanity into consideration regarding this topic because the result would determine who we are and what is our collective purpose for existing.

Long ago, all people believed in the existence of divinities. They worship nature, mythical creatures, deities..
But as man progresses on his philosophies, he begins to wonder..
Wondering it there is/are gods.
For such a long time, people lived in fear of gods..people fear their powers.
Some men realized that humanity has their own power..to acquire and use knowledge.
Science was born and out of science came out radical thoughts, hyphotheses..a lot of "What If’s" came into being.
"What if the world is not flat","What if we can fly","What if we can reach the moon and the stars", "what if we can become Gods"…

For millenias, humanity dreamed of becomeing a god or god-lke. Dreaming of immortality and god-like abilities, he pursued different paths just to achieve that goal. It is believed that everyone of us carries a desire to become superior over everyone..dominance. And dominance is what god(s) brings to the inferior humanity.

I will present an argument for each type of belief.

This first argument is for the Believers especially the monotheistic/creationist religions.

Why did God created us?
Is it because he is bored of existing endlessly in an empty universe?
Did he create us for enjoyment?
As i first inferred, dominance is a part of human instinct..because we naturally seek order, and social order can only be acquired through control. Someone has to enforce them. A society where everyone is completely equal can never ever truly exist. Not in paradise not in hell. We all follow a hierarchy..because each of us has their individual purpose. Not everyone can be rich, someone always has to be richer. Not everyone can be scientist or businessmen, someone has to be a farmer. If there were no farmers, they would all starve. This just shows that everyone cannot be equals, someone would and always assume dominance, through power or through faith.

motheistic religions believe in an omnipotent god..knows everything, sees everything, be everywhere, anytime–past,present,future…basically, he can do everything. But why does God test us with tragic circumstances, either caused by someone else or natural events?
He knows what we would do in such situations, but why would he still let those things happen? Just for enjoyment? or he is just getting his kicks out of human misery? If he just wanted us to worship him day and night..he could have done so.but why did he not do that? is it because of freewill? What free will? no matter what decision we choose in life, he had already known about it and anticipated them..

Think about this..If God created everything, then he was the one who created "good" and "evil" in the first place..he could have just made Adam and Eve vomit the fruit they ate at Eden..And  if God was omnipotent, he would have already known that Eve would stupidly believe that snake..and he would have never asked Adam and Eve why they were so  embarrassed because he already knows what they did.
..He could have just probably reprogrammed Adam and Eve then hide the Tree and make a wallet out of the skin of that snake and everything could have been easier for everyone..no "original sin"..

To be continued….
