Putting On Different Glasses

I was challenged by a former Christian comedian to consider the possibility that there is no God. To actually take time to put on those glasses and examine the question, Is There A God?, from a new perspective. So, I did. What came about was a new recognition of what religion really is. I'm not one to offend, but I will say that it is highly likely all religion is simply a container for our desire to make sense of this world. More importantly, to see someone or something in control of such a chaotic human race, and to find a way to define right from wrong. I do not affiliate with any religion. My quest is purely one day at a time. But, I learned a valuable lesson. To believe one way without examining the other is to leave your faith open to question, if not interpretation. It is time we all put on 'different glasses' and respect ourselves enough to seek truth without a container.

More on the existence of God later...
