The Secret Of Life
- 0 Comments
The lead article of the latest Time magazine is entitled God Vs. Science, reflecting the ongoing controversy about whether science can be used to either prove or disprove the existence of God. This follows the recent publication of The God Delusion, the latest attack on religion by the biologist and evangelical atheist Richard Dawkins. Meanwhile, similar arguments rage around the blogosphere, with atheists and believers locked at each other’s throats, attempting to prove that they are right and the others wrong, seeking to assert their beliefs (or lack of them) with desperate intensity.
Generally speaking, these quarrelsome people do have something in common however. They all want to make the world a better place. The only point in dispute is how to do it.
The believers think that if everyone follows their faith, people will start to treat each better. The atheists believe the same thing, pointing to religious conflict as evidence to support their case. Is there any way out of this impasse? Is there any way to consensus?
The Secret Of Life is a blog which looks in an entertaining way at spiritual issues, and which politely suggests that it might be possible to view the world in a very different way: to get away from conflicts over ideas and look instead at the world as it actually is. What if we are able to use gentle shifts in perspective to reveal a whole new way of being, one which can free us from negative thought patterns and connect us instead with a natural field of energy? This is a field which radiates love and responds to human thought, a field which some might view as a natural source of power like electricity – yet others might call divine.
