Questioning The Gods.

It is important for us, for the sake of the develpment of humanity, to question what we are told. For if we do not, we become conformists. Dumb, lazy, easily fooled conformists in a totalitarian world of oppression. To question is to form individual thoughts and opinions, to stray away from the herd of sheeple. When it comes to God, it is also important that we question him.

In the schools, despite religion being a controvercial topic, teachers still continue to make references to their Judeo-Christian god and give their realities to their students. These children have not been taught by their parents to question, and so they will automatically accept this god as cold stone fact.

It is important to remember that no one knows. No one knows if there is a god or not. So why do we teach our children one way, and refuse to show them the other alternatives? It is not right to brainwash children into the Christian tradition. If we are going to show them the Judeo-Christian god, we must show them all other gods as well. We must expose them to all religions, not just one. Let your child choose his own path, let your child choose for himself.

Expose your children to the ancient cultures of history, to the celtic and pagan religions, to both eastern and western philosophy, to both right hand path and left hand path religions. Educate them, and let them them question. Do not stuff your own beliefs down their throats, let them develop healthily on their own, and on their own will.

Open your children up to the possibilities of this vast universe, let them get creative. Use the socratic method, ask them questions, ask them thoughts, allow them to think for themselves. What is god? Who is he? How do you know this god is a he? Couldn't it be a she? What if this god is genderless? What if there is no god? Can proove their is a god? Can you prove that there isn't? What do you think a god looks like if one does exist? Maybe there is more then one god. Maybe there are hundreds of thousands of gods? Etc, etc, etc.

Open them up. Free their minds. If you do not, they will become slaves to this totalitarian system. They will grow up to be sheeple. Educate the youth and let them question not just god and religion - Everything. Everything they see and hear, read and sense. Let them be individuals, not part of the herd. Let them make it on their own will, let your children be themselves. Let them be their own gods if they choose to
