"My God is better!" "No, Allah is better!" "Well, my God is the true Father!"
Religious adherents are like a bunch of 6-year-olds arguing over whose dad has the better job, or which toy is best.
The "realness" of God is a circular argument that will never be answered; not in our lifetimes, not in our children's lifetime, children's children, and down through infinite generations.
"Never send to know for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee."
"No tree has branches so foolish as to fight among themselves."
"Human beings are individualized expressions of the same Source. Some are tall, some are short, some are dark, some are light, some male, some female."
My solace comes from the fact that this existence, when it's over, will be like waking up from a bad dream.
People look at me sideways when I say this:
"There are other realities out there, other planets, and other dimensions that are much more loving, much more peaceful, and far less manipulative than this rather limited, 3-dimensional reality we refer to as planet Earth."
You'll often hear people say, "life is short," or, "you only get one life, make the most of it." While it is wise to aspire to be the best you can be, as author P.M.H. Atwater stated:
This life is simply a learning experience, a way to broaden our spiritual, energetic, and intellectual horizons. If there's more for us to learn in this terraqueous purlieu, we'll return to the same corporeality in another existence.
If we've made the best of our sojourn here and have learned the basic lesson of unconditional love, our soul/spirit/energy (whatever you care to label it), after this existence, will incarnate in a higher dimension.
Based on over 30 years of research, study, and life experience, this is the article writer's hypothesis as to why we are here.
The "Creation Story," "Heaven and Hell," "Eternal Reward or Damnation," nothing but a Roman story, written by primitive men, gone horrendously viral.
