God Virus in Christianity
ОглавлениеThe first and foremost question to followers of this religion is what is the concept of the Holy Trinity.
According to this concept, God, Son and Holy Spirit are one and same. If this is the case, then how come Jesus sacrificed himself? Sacrifice means when you give something of your own for someone or “forfeiture of something highly valued for the sake of one considered to have a greater value or claim.”
If Jesus is God and the Holy Spirit, then what did he sacrifice on the cross. The Holy Spirit can never die and when he can never die, then who died on the cross? It seems Holy Spirit came into the body named Jesus and then went out of the body and again came back into the body after a few days and again went back. Thus, it clearly shows that no one died and it was fraud done in front of people. People were misguided by the Holy Spirit and it is a big lie. This in itself, shakes the basic foundation of Christianity.
Even if I consider that he came back after a few days, what did he sacrifice. He got the same body back and fooled people. I am sure this is a story made by some smart person.
Though Christianity talks about the love of God and God loves its followers, let’s then analyze Ten Commandments which form the basis of its good teachings and you decide yourself after this.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
I find a great problem in this first law, especially in the United States and India where you are free to follow any religion, though India is in a very dangerous situation where Hinduism is being wiped out very systematically. This is a conflict with the concept of religious freedom. If God of the Bible says that he is the only God, then definitely it makes the God of other religion’s books false and this will bear animosity. Don’t you think the book of the Hindus called Bhagvat Gita should be followed as God? Krishna himself says that to follow any path, but the final destination is one. So imagine one billion Hindus by this law are considered pagans and will go to Hell. On contrary, if we follow Krishna, it will bring world peace as all are right in following their own path.
“Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me.” [Exodus 20:4-6 (KJV)].
If someone makes an image of a tree or some beautiful statue and starts worshiping it--starts bowing in front of it--what will happen? Shouldn’t these people be free to do so? So, if someone wants to make a graven image and bow in front of it then as per this law God will hate such person. God says I am jealous so does it not mean such God does not have universal love and loves only a few, like a big Mafia don and likes his followers while dooming others. Thus idol worshipers will go to hell.
At this point one can ask what about the cross which Christians put in cars and wear on necks and keep on kissing and bowing at different times. Is this not the worst kind of idol worship? Where you keep thinking about Christ in the car and kiss it while thinking about Christ, then the cross is not an object or idol? Hindus create goddess and gods, decorate them knowing that God is ONE but can be seen in any form, object or idol or thing to remember and worship.
Thus we can see, all are involved in graven images–be that the cross, or an idol. The statement “I the Lord thy God am a jealous God” is really an astonishing one and I cannot understand it even now, what kind of God is this, most powerful in existence, creator of the universe and only real God, how can he be jealous of anything. Is jealousy a virtue or vice? Further, when it is mentioned about a third or fourth generation, is it really plausible? I leave it to readers to apply their logic here.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
According to the dictionary, “vain” means “producing no results or useless”. I asked my Xian missionary friend, “What does it mean?” He replied, “We should not call his name until required” Based on this answer, it seems to be most absurd law in the history of mankind. I think we all have done this crime when we say “Oh God” or “My God”. In fun we say “Wow God, I love this”, “My God” and “Darn God” and so on. This violates basic freedom rights of humans who call out the word God any time. What a law which conflicts with basic human rights. It is a violation of free speech from the Constitution.
This has following threat to people:
•Don't make graven images of anything
•Don't create any likeness of anything.
•Don't bow down and worship graven images
•If you do this I will punish you, your children, your grandchildren and your great grandchildren
This would require destruction of civic art and architecture on a massive scale in the U.S., India and elsewhere. This is just like the Taliban, who on the name of Islam did same to Afghanistan’s Buddha statue. The second apparently would extend the prohibition against any visual depictions of object, including photographs and cartoons.
The third contravenes national and international legal protections.
The final threat, while fortunately unenforceable in any real manner, is decidedly unpleasant, unfair and vindictive.
This is a clear violation of Article Eighteen of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article Nine of the European Convention on Human Rights, and the First Amendment to the American Constitution.
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
Such a law would almost certainly be a violation of Articles Eighteen and Nineteen of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article Nine of the European Convention on Human Rights, and the First Amendment to the American Constitution.
Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.
This law would mandate the "honoring" of one particular day from one particular religion. It would represent an unwarranted attack on freedom of belief. A clear violation of Article Eighteen of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (as well as potentially Article Twenty Three, which enshrines the right to work), and Article Nine of the European Convention on Human Rights:
Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God gives thee
There would be considerable enforcement and civil liberties issues with any law based on this commandment--especially so as this is one of the many commandments backed up by the death penalty in other parts of the Old Testament. If taken to the extreme, this would mean every single child would be killed as no one is that respectful to their parents, especially during their teenage years.
Thou shalt not kill
This is good as it will abolish capital punishment.
Thou shalt not commit adultery
This does make some sense and is good for society. It is already part of most of other teachings.
Thou shalt not steal
This does make some sense and is good for society. It is already part of most of other teachings.
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor
This is a basically a good idea, and is incorporated in all legal systems already.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor’s
No response. It is good and must be followed.
