RE: @ecotrain Question of the week? How about question of the YEAR? Let's talk God!
@misslasvegas, this is truly a question of questions that leads to questions. You have said a lot of wonderful things and I think I will read your post to volunteers in our organization. Africa needs to wake up from their slumber of prayers and begin to get things done as opposed to praying for things to be done. The worst type of prison is to be trapped in the Bible or holy books coz you will be doomed forever. These books are a big setup and people need to see this. Seriously, shall talk to every volunteer of our organization to read the responses to ecotrain qotw about God.
We have to rise up and take care of the problems we create. It’s a great post and I agree with a lot of issues you raised when I answered the question.
Thank you @thegreens! And it's an honour that you're considering reading this to people in your organization. That's exactly it, people are so conditioned to think that their religion and bible is going to do the work for them, that they forget to act. I think that's one of the things that's wrong with organized religion: it gives people the opportunity to put cause and reason in another subject and with that they will also put responsibility with others (in this case god) and not with themselves. We ALL have to take responsibility for the change we want to see in the world. Not the church, our 'leaders' or teachers...It starts with I! Thank you for your great feedback, it is very much appreciated!
