This is a complete OUTRAGE
How is the book?
I want to poke. This is a complete OUTRAGE!! The authors of it, the editors of the book, and people giving 5 stars, are utterly mad and needs to go to either to a neurologist or jail! I don't want my children to grow up in a world like this! Your religion is an embarrassment for the whole universe: wars, inquisition, assassinations in name of God, fanatics all over, homosexual persecution, women discrimination, hunger, lies, manipulation, sexual abuse, Galileo torture, burning of books about knowledge ... what a world we live in! This is very sad. What did you learn at school people? In my country children learn evolutionism, reason, science and ethics. We learn how to be good, love everyone, accept different cultures, never be racist, accept homosexuality, go against wars, against hunger... I can't believe that in USA and other countries people still learn religion and old myths as if they were all facts. Religions are an insult to the "Mother Nature", to Life and to God itself.We share most of the genome with the chimps, sharing a common ancestor. We are ANIMALS! And we should be very proud of it! We should be proud to be alive and part of this fantastic nature. Animals have brains, consciousness, dreams, language (dolphins), feelings, fear, they feel sorrow for their death... all like us! The unique difference is that we are more intelligent and we have abstract thinking due to our brain evolution. Some animals are more intelligent than others, this is nature. Also, we have imagination that allow us to believe in invented religions! The universe is sooo big, soooooo dark, and sooo unknown, that by simply statistics we are not alone, 99.999% for sure. Aliens exist all over! They may be aware of us, or not. They probably have their own religions, or none at all! They probably think they are alone in the universe. The conditions for life to arise that took place on Earth happened all over the Universe. There are billions of other suns, planets and galaxies. Conclusion? We are not the chosen species, but we are the most selfish species in the whole universe! The universe is 13.700.000.000 years old. Huminids occupy only a tiny part of it. We're not safe from extinction. If humans get excincted, the universe will continue its course billions of years more... and some other species will arise, probably different than what we know.The Bible is a text written 2000-3000 years ago by primitive, ignorant and perverse people. Trying to make interpretations of the Bible is simply an excuse to keep believing in our religions. To be ancient doesn't mean that it is real, just the opposite. The Bible was written only 2000 years ago; the homo sapiens and other species of huminids (nearthendals, homo erectus, etc) have been in Earth thousands of years. Before us, dinosaurs and other extincted species inhabited our little planet. Why do you think God would decide to express itself only at this short period of the Earth timeline? The reality is that, people that wrote the Bible found an ingenous way to control masses and keep society quiet. They discovered that using a mystery like the dead, nobody would ever 100% prove the existence of an invented heaven or hell. Religions are tales to explain the unknown. But nowadays science has evolved so much that we no longer need religion to explain most things. Humanity have been always cruel. Romans practised slavery, sent people to the lions, etc. people like those are who wrote the Bible.If you read the Bible you will discover it's perverse. If an all-knowing entity like God would have written it, the Bible would contain awesome knowledge. Instead, it contains:* Creationism: the world, oceans, stars, plants, etc. were created in seven days, without any scientific explanation of it. Ridiculous. Read about Big Bang.* Intelligent design: read about evolution.* No place for dinosaurs.* The age of Earth is ridiculous.* Geocentrism: Earth is neither flat nor the center of the universe. We are the most selfish.* The divinity of rainbow: it's just a natural effect of light scattering. In fact, I can see a rainbow every time I wash my hands in my office bathroom.* Noe's boat: how do you put 1.7 million of species in a boat? Animals like crocodiles or sharks have been around in Earth millions of years.* Slavery, discrimination of women, children aasassination: I want to throw up.* Miraculous healings: learn about placebo and the power of faith.* Angels with wings, spirits...: all fantasy* Heaven, Hell, plagues: thanks to fear, it's a way to compensate those who obey, and punish those who doesn't* The last paragraphs of the Bible states that any who adds or takes out something in the Bible will suffer from eternal punishment. It is clear a way for people who wrote it to cause doubt and fear to thouse who will not obey.* God created us in his resemblance. If a single intelligent being exists outside our planet, this falls apart completely.* Does God speak English, French, German, Spanish...?Do you think an all-knowing, all-loving entity, would write such a thing?There are 99.999% of possibilities that after death there's nothing! This is life, and we MUST accept it as it is. Birth means nothing without dead. Everything has a beginning and an ending. Where is the problem of it? Our memories, consciousness, thoughts, feelings... mysterious and intangible things: that neuroscience can explain them! Mind comes with the brain. Check diseases like Alzheimer or Schizophrenia, alcohol, drugs... and see how  chemistry or brain damage affect our vision of reality. Spirits, NDE, OBE,... all depends on culture and have scientific proof: our complex brain that tricks us. All those testimonies, those stories about life after death, are simply tricks of the brain. Memory is proven to reside in our neurons. Brain damage can erase it completely. How would you explain that someone who leaves its body returns remembering those experience? The reason is simple: they never left the body or the brain behind. They had hallucinations, dreams, whatever. Their experiences always match their religions and culture. This is how our subconsciousness work!Have you ever lost consciousness? Your ego and existence comes to absolutely nothing! Where's the eternal part of it during it? It dies with the brain cells, returning to nature what we borrowed from it. Before our birth we were absolutely nothing, we were not eternal, and won't be; death works the same way. And I accept life as it is: a complex and beautiful experience.Life is very hard, please, don't make it even more difficult than it already is.Science has found things so hidden and complex such as Higgs' Bosson, electromagnetism, quantic physics, medicine... but never paranormal things!Fanatics, are you asking indigenous people, children with cancer, people with brain diseases, other cultures, other religions, tribes in the remote Amazon jungle, to believe in your myth?I can believe in some form of God, because nature is amazing and very complex. However, who created God? Therefore, I can also believe that there is no God at all. Reality is that nobody knows. But science has proved that something can arise from nothing.What is true is that I'll never believe in your ideas! Religion causes irreversible psychological damage, it has brought crimes and hell in Earth. And you still worship God as someone loveable and fair. How can you love someone who sends poor children, good and honest people to hell? If God exists, he gave us brains to think critically, and to have free. If your God existed, I prefered to go to hell along with my family, friends, wife, children, and other brilliant people in human history, rather than going to heaven to worship a cruel and unfair God while seeing how loveable people is tortured FOREVER. Fanatics, do you understand what eternity means? It means that for simply not believing what several ancient people wrote in a perverse book you will be tortured billions of billions of years, and afterwards, you will be tortured billions of billions of years more, and so on. Only for some free thinking you had during your brief life span. It does not matter at all how much you loved, how many people you helped, nothing matter. It only matters to have blind faith in a book that loves slavery, assassinations and women discrimination. Am I going to hell simply by loving and accepting life as it is?Most people say: what if you are wrong and hell is real? If you believe and you are wrong you do not lose nothing. Instead, if you do not believe and you are wrong, you get punished. This is called Pascal's wanger, and thanks to this the Church still exists, earning money, sexualy abusing from children, and giving delusion to people's lives. Let's try an experiment! Imagine I now publish a book explaining I have had a Near-Death Experience. In this NDE I have met God. God have told me that Earth is a mess, that life in other planets is great. That religions are only human inventions to relief their fear to death. God also tells me that the unique religion is the religion of love. And finally God tells me that those who believe and teach religions like Christianty will go to hell for lying and causing phsycological damage to innocent people. Do you have any evidence that I am lying? I have exactly the same evidence that those who claim the Bible was written by God.Can't you see people that using the word "faith" everyone can make you believe ANYTHING he wants? No matter how inverosimile it seams! Faith is so powerful, and the brain so complex, that people actually end up seeing God, Jesus or whatever they were told to exist.Another point. Isn't your God so infinitely fair? I can ensure he is not fair at all:* People before Jesus did not believe in him. But they are saved automatically.* People at the time of Jesus believed in him because they saw him during their lives.* People nowadays are obviously losing faith, because time changes and society evolves.* Some people claim that have met Jesus or God in person. That is, they will go to heaven by evidence, while others have to go to heaven by simple faith. How fair, isn't it? They are simply liars, dreamers or manipulators.* People in 2000 years will no longer believe in him because science will have evolved and we will have probably created artificial consciousness and demonstrated that soul is a myth.* People who live in other parts of the world, in the jungle, in India, etc. will never believe in him.Aren't you aware this is completely unfair? This the most archaic plan for an entity so powerful that has created our complex universe.Fanatics, you are the most despicable people in the universe for assuring that people who don't feel what you believe, will go to eternal punishment. If some form of God is real, he will punish you for bringing Hell in Earth.You know what? Hell is real. It's in the Earth every day. It's in our heads. Please, live your life at most. And let live. Love. Help. Have children. Live is wonderful, is amazing, and mysterious. Find your light yourself, don't believe what ancient people wrote for their interest.If you want more information go to webpages like whywontgodhealamputees, godisimaginary, richard dawkings foundation, Victor Stenger, etc. Learn more about the chemical of consciousness. And finally, learn the Bible and see the nonsense of it and the intentions behind the people who wrote. It was written in an age where slavery, woman discrimination, miracles, exorcism to epileptic people, ignorance, etc. where completely normal.
