RELIGION DILEMMAS AND PARADOXES - THE RELEVANCE AND VALUE OF 'GOD' IN OUR LIVES TODAY! PART 3.









It is the prerogative and duty of humans to ask questions of and interrogate our environments, both internal and external, and endeavour to create new realities and experiences. 

There are no 'given' or 'received' wisdom which we should spare the microscope, including that pertaining to the relevance or irrelevance of 'God.' This is the condition on which our survival is based!'


This is how advances have been made in the medicine, surgery and other areas of our lives. It is how us humans are able to make major advances in healthcare, in understanding and defying gravity, and making planes and being able to fly. 

In being able to get men and women to space and the Moon and being able to explore them. To develop new tools with which to work, such as the radio, TV, camera, internet. 




So, why not in the area of theism, as the central pillar of religious belief? 

I mean, imagine how much and how negatively the world, the advancement of us humans, would have been impacted.  

Had the more courageous, questioning and sapient forebears, not succeeded in removing scientific exploration and development from the oppressive and deadly hands, chains of Theology and Theism?

So, has 'God' got any relevance in our lives, the lives of us humans, today,? 

And, if so, how much value should or do we place on that relevance? 

To be continued!
