There
Is No God?
Between
75 and 90 percent of those that have known me, up to a good extent, know that I
am that man that can be termed "nonreligious". This does not translate
that I do not believe in the existence of God (am not an Atheist) and neither
does this mean that I am a pagan (Sun worship per) or an Idolater. It logically
and reasonably transpires to the fact that I believe in logical reasoning.
Matter of fact, logic is what I feel best enable my sense of understanding to
the best within my reach.
Of
late, I have been observant of what transpires in the world today via the
internet (both on social networks and news media) most especially the recent
disturbance of "Gay-ism" that some affluent personalities and entities
have been propagating, the world over, and the reactions of some certain people
in some certain quarters of the societies of this planet.
Some
have gone as far as using this, gay-ism, as an excuse (rather, as a medium) to preach
of the non-existence of a creator (God). And most of them have gone as far as
trying to convert people into accepting their ideologies and school of
thoughts.
Why
I chose to put this pen on paper is what stemmed from my way of reasoning many,
many years ago and my unanswered questions and theorems on Wiki Ask™ nine years
ago (precisely in April, 2006).
During
our primary and post tertiary levels of acquiring formal education, we were
taught how man came into existence with two theorems (even when they both
actually translate to one theorem) of science, logic and reason. And these are
the "theory of evolution" (originally the Charles Darwin Theory of
Evolution) and "the black hole" (Big Bang Theorem).
The
"Theory of Evolution" was practicalized as proof to us through the
use of one of the smallest unit of life (a tissue of cell) by asking us to take
a small crumb of bread, put it in a glass jar, seal the glass jar from air (and
other contaminant), dropping it (the glass jar) in a dark cupboard (ensuring no
light can penetrate the jar and the cupboard) and allowing it to stand for at
least seven days. We were then asked to observe the bread crumb on the seventh
day, or after. We actually observed that mucus and, likely, grey matters of
amoeba, had grown on it.
Now,
basic science taught us that amoeba is a cell (which actually is the smallest
unit of life) and thus a living thing.
In
this basic science, and in both biology and integrated science in post-primary
school, we were taught how the first smallest unit of life (a cell) evolved
into a tissue and tissues, and subsequently a whole living system. The first
ape was then classified to us, from moving from Homo-Erectus, Neanderthals to Homo-Sapiens
and to the present day man and it still ensured to prove to us that man would
evolve from this stage to growing wings and becoming Aves, that can fly. Thus,
a time will come when men would be flying around with naturally grown wings (Bull
Crap!).
The
Big Bang theory was explained to us in this manner;
"Two
heavenly bodies traveling on the same path, in opposite direction, with very
high velocity, collided and exploded and their debris is what brought about the
planets found in our universe today"
Another Bull Crap!
I
wonder if the pioneers of academic learning actually thought that the whole of
human race was never going to develop intelligently to ever dispute their
personal opinions (Yes! Their personal opinions) or they just wanted to make a
fool of man for the whole of eternity. I wonder this because, I most time think
of how foolish they were to have cooked up such "scandalous
bull-crap" and expected that it would be accepted that way, without questioning,
for eternity.
On
this fateful day of April, 2006, I logged on to the Wiki Ask™ forum only to
meet the topic "Is there really a God?" and the discussion was
booming with comments of opinions from different atheists, idolaters, pagans,
philosophers, scholars, scientists, and other religious bigots about God and no
God so, I decided to give them (mostly the atheists, philosophers and
scientists) a ride on their own treat by asking for answers to my simple yet
logical question of God or no God from the two theorems that philosophers and
scientists usually put forward to buttress their reasoning on the existentiality
of God not existing.
My
first question was asked using a premise from the Big Bang (or Black Hole)
theorem and it goes thus;
"taking
two glass cups of exactly same measurements, dropping them from the same
distance (height) with the same force to break on the floor into shads or
pieces and photographing their shads or pieces, one after the other, it will be
observed that they do not break or shatter into the same measurements of sizes,
shapes, weights and each exact size, shape and weight will not fall on the same
spot and exact distance from the others. Hence, since they wouldn't, how is it
possible that the two heavenly bodies that collided formed the planets of our
universe that has been rotating for billions of years about the sun, on and
about their axis without skidding or sliding off from and on their axis, about
their axis and have never rotated otherwise if not because they are obeying a
law or command put in place by a superior and magnanimous being that is known
as God?"
Secondly,
using a premise from the theorem of evolution's experiment of bread crumb in a
glass jar and the subsequent evolvement of a life form known as amoeba, I
asked;
"Bread
is majorly flour (gotten from grinding wheat into powder) and yeast, both from
living things. Bread crumb is from flour, flour is from wheat, wheat is a crop
(plant) thus, it is also a living thing and we all agree to that (no doubt from
any school of thought at all about that), now who created that first living
thing (the wheat plant) that was used to make flour which in turn make bread,
that we got our crumb from, that gave rise to that first living organism that
has evolved to become man in his present day that will evolve into the flying Ave
man so expected to come by scientists and other believers of that school of
thought, if not a superior and magnanimous being that is known as God?"
As
at the moment of penning down this thoughts of mine, these two questions above
are yet to be answered and, like I told them in that forum;
"until my two theorems as questions are
satisfactorily answered beyond all reasonable doubt (even when I do not attach
myself to a particular form of religion, for the fact that I see religion as a brain-child of man
and the main problem of man)"
I
will continue to believe in God and the fact that God exists.
At
this juncture, I strongly believe that after you are done reading this and you
still believe God does not exist then "You are on long thing. OYO for you
O...". As for me and my household, there is a God, He is God and we will
continue to worship him, now and forever.
With
this little logic, you still believe there is no God? "e be like say you don dey madt abi!"
