There are more than 2 billion people doesn't believe in God, and 4 billion believe in One God, and the rest believe in inner God or many gods. People killing people forcing people to believe in God or the other way around, forcing others to believe in Science and sweeping God from entire planet.
Who is right? who is wrong? I believe most of you who are reading this is either Christian, Buddhist or Atheist. Nobody's perfect, the best preacher, the best pastor, St. Paul, Ghandi, the best buddhist monk, HH Dalai Lama, the best scientist, Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, Oprah Winfrey, Mother Teresa. None of them are perfect.
"You are not 100% pure and good" sentence I received recently struck me, seems shallow sentence and nothing deep about it, but it's deep and very true that none of us is 100% pure and good.
As a Christian, be a christian who is passionate about humanity, do as Christ Jesus taught you, believe in God firmly, love God with all your strength and soul, and love others as loving yourself, even you are only 1 % doing it succesfully at least you die trying.
As a Buddhist, be a buddhist who believe in peaceful reunion with the heavenly, believe in the goodness of humanity, fill your mind with compassion just like buddha said, give hands to others in need, even you are only 1 % doing it succesfully at least you die trying.
As an Atheist, be a humanist who don't making fun of religious people, develop cure for cancer, explore the universe, do your best for the advancement of science and development of humanity, do act of kindness wherever you go, even you are only 1 % doing it succesfully at least you die trying.
I am not saying all religions coexist and worship same God or same belief system, no, we live in diverse culture, we learn to respect and to understand others, not to mix our religions or beliefs into one, in this tough times rather than fighting over who is right who is wrong, it is much better to put the time and effort in helping global poverty and hunger around the world. Hundreds of innocent children are dying in Darfur, Sudan while you guys debate over religions and science in YouTube.com
There is time to share your faith to others peacefully, there is time to be secular and unite together to help people.
nobody is 100% good, nobody is 100% pure, not a virgin, not a nun, not a monk, not a preacher, not a pastor, not a scientist, not a priest, not a boddhisatva, not a public doctor, not a UN worker, not a humanitarian worker, not a seminarian, nobody.
"and three things remains, Faith, Hope and Love, and upon these three.. the greatest is Love, Love others like loving yourself."
