    Human's purpose

    God: hey Adam, I just created you to give you lots of love, but I don't want to torture you, so I'll give you a "choice". If you said no however, you will burn in hell forever! What a nice "choice" God is giving me.

    Human's purpose

    But wasn't civilization based on slavery and evildoing? Humans were much better people when they were hunter-gatherers.Assuming you're not a creationist. The more we advance, it seems the worse we become.

    Human's purpose

    What if I'm bad naturally but I wear a mask of goodness, should I be free?

    Human's purpose

    I disagree, we are not different than animals, we are evolving and everything we do or make is natural. We don't choose who we become in a "freewill" sense. I used to think like you until I discovered evolutionary psychology. We don't make purposes, we evolved to require more purposes, other...

    Human's purpose

    You are right about religion empowering you, or helping you psychologically, but it's not exclusive to Islam. I agree with the last part.

    Human's purpose

    Can you explain how? What do you mean by light within me? What are these teachings? They don't look Islamic.

    Human's purpose

    And how all things prove God's existence or "light"? What makes you think it doesn't reflect the light of two or three or a hundred gods?

    Human's purpose

    Yeah, we humans have such a "high" purpose according to Islam. But thank God I know Islam is wrong, I'm nobody's slave.

    Human's purpose

    The qur'an, bible, and hadiths are all filled with examples. God can be happy, angry, and sad. He can love and hate. He's extremely jealous, and vengeful. He claims to be the Most Merciful™, yeah right. He claims being just while alkitab almahfood proves otherwise. I guess like us, he can say a...

    Human's purpose

    And how do you know all of that about God? A lot of what you said either has a conflict with the qur'an or isn't even in the book. The Qur'an says our purpose is to worship him as slaves. That's a pretty low purpose. I'd rather be a free bird than a slave ape.

    Human's purpose

    What's the purpose of humans? This question troubled me for a long time. I don't think there's a purpose, and if there is, it's a purpose we share with all living things. Civilization doesn't prove that we are a special species. I started to review the Abrahamic purpose. I don't know how fool I...

    Some problems I am having with the Quran.

    God says he's fair, but you're not Sunni, and this guy is Christian that guy is a Jew and the other one was an atheist. However, most of them were raised that way, how is that even fair? This is what I call the luck map, If you are lucky and God think you're one of his favourite, you will born...

    Contradictions in Quran

    Like Jesus? or maybe Paul? or the head of a major church? Personally, if Lucifer exists I think he's part of our genes, and he lives somewhere in the brain. The evidence of his biological existence are negative thoughts. Guess who's his neighbour.

    Some problems I am having with the Quran.

    Are you having religious doubts? I've been through that too. It lasted a couple of months and it was the worst experience in life, but knowing it's temporarily can make it better.

    Contradictions in Quran

    Me? No living thing on earth knows what was in Mohammad's head. He might made it up for a purpose, or he might actually believed that stuff. When he was 40 he was isolating himself in a cave for weeks, praying that God will guide his people. That's not very healthy and seeing an imaginary...

    Contradictions in Quran

    There are many reasons why there are contradictions in Quran. If you examine Allah and Mohammad. Allah is the only God, and Mohammad was his only prophet in that time. Nobody could connect with Allah but his prophet Mohammad presented the Quran as "Allah's ONLY true words". That's why the Quran...

    Are all religions nothing but products of evolution?

    I look at science with skepticism too, especially some of today's political/commercial driven "sciences". But scientific facts are based on evidence. Evolution itself is self-evidence. However, evolution needs to improve and expand because we don't know all about it.

    Are all religions nothing but products of evolution?

    I never said that, scientists make mistakes like any living thing, but they also produce a lot of facts. and they are the source of most of our knowledge.

    Are all religions nothing but products of evolution?

    We can extract these advantages as a human race without keeping religion. convincing the self is one of the most powerful tools that people generally don't use or even know of. You can get rid of general anxiety and depression, all it takes is self-conviction. Religion is like the patients in...
