Concept of Heaven promotes Terrorism

[Ramaraksha]

Hey... have you considered the power of prayer? A person who prays and concentrates on a single thing his or her whole life, may be able to manifest that thing after death. Making your own hell could be possible if you live your entire life horrified of improperly touching animals or whatever. The energy put into your faith is real and prayer is pretty powerful. In this way, God could be so real in our lives. Now back up thousands of years. Billions of people concentrating on the same shit over and over. Do you think psychic energy can create a God? Think about it... all those people thinking. Their conscious beliefs can carry over into their death, or be scattered fragments of God confirming consciousness floating in the void, waiting to take form and confirm that God is real. Thousands of years projecting psychic energy and reinforcement through tradition makes any God real in an abstractly tangible way. It could just be an accessory after the fact type of situation. That brings "in his own image" more meaning to me personally. And yeah terrorism sucks.

You CAN change the world by thought (for example moving your body parts) but not by "thought alone". Your BODY is your thoughts.

That involves physical labor - you know sort of like if you want good grades, you have to uh, study? If you want that good job or promotion, uh, work?

The weak, the lazy are always looking for the easy way to the easy life & words like "prayer will get things done" is music to their ears

Hey, don't knock laziness.

Hard work may often pay off over time; But laziness always pays off right now!

The illusion that education plus working endlessly equals happiness is possibly more disgusting than a Religion, but we do what we have to, Ramaraksha. Everyone is weak and lazy in my opinion. It probably takes more motivation and strength to just drop out of society. Maybe after that get some religion because it doesn't actually matter at all? I don't know.
