Questions

Religion is supposed to give people answers. Life has always eluded man, they couldn't find proper answers to a lot of the questions they had like: How life began? Who were the first human beings? Who is watching us? Who created the earth?
Religion has been trying to answer all these questions for a long time, and, some have succeeded in giving those answers, creationism is the best example we have at hand.
But what happens when religion stops being healthy? Fanaticism, in my view, is not something to be proud of. It creates violence towards other people and other religions. It dissimulates respect and love. It transforms a person into it's religion.
I've always had religious education in my schools, and something that I've. Learned while studying is that having a lot of religions in the world is not a problem, it's a solution. Diversity. What makes us different always makes us stronger, and whether you believe in God or not, whether you believe in the bible, or in the Koran, or in nothing at all, we're a human being that are always looking for answers. In religion or in science, we always tryto answer some impossible questions.
Gabriel García Marques wrote a book called The General in His Labyrinth, and while reading Looking For Alaska by John Green I stumbled across a reflection of Simón Bolivar's, the principal charecter in the book, last words.
He said: " Damn it, how am I ever getting out of this labyrinth?"
And in the reflection the author changed the quote from labyrinth to labyrinth of suffering. Looking at this question again, after this week, I could finally understand that the labyrinth is life, and the way to get through it is believing. Believing in yourself or in a greater force, but you just have to believe. And people know that, hence the fact that there are Over 34,000 christian faiths in the world.
I've spoken about questions.Something that we tried to answer in class but failed to is " what do we believe in?"
In what you want? In what seems right? In what your parents belive?
I'm not trying to reach any kinds of conclusion here, but I believe that that is the question in most of peoples head today.
