RELIGION OF THE CONSCIENCE

Are you afraid of or do you hold in awe your God or gods? Are you committed to a particular mode of worship because you were born into it? Do you have reservations about your religion but are afraid to talk about them because you might look like an atheist, non-believer, rebel, child of the devil etc? Do you in general want to question or challenge your religion & what it stands for? Do you doubt the existence of your God or gods but still join in worship as an insurance in case he, she, or they actually exist?

If you have answered any one of the following positively then my advice to you is to join RELIGION OF THE CONSCIENCE where you learn to rely on your brain and your conscience to determine your dos and donts. Bear in mind that for every action, there is a reaction, which might be painful, but if like Machiavelli, you believe that the end justifies the means, do please carry on. You are definitely ready to bear the consequences of your action. Religion of the conscience is free because everyone has a conscience albeit guilty or not. No tithes or other obligations are imposed on you. Nobody looks down on you when you fail to make a compulsory donation. Nobody feeds fat over your hard-earned income by promising that you will be replenished 10 fold.

If you start hearing murmurs in your heart or voices of your God or gods after becoming a member of the Religion of conscience, I suggest that you go back to your previous calling as this is an indication that you are in limbo & are not strong enough to think for yourself.

When you belong to anyone of the religions that may be covered by paragraph one, you are subjected to two laws; your religious laws (canon, sharia etc) & the laws of the land, & sometimes they conflict. With the Religion of Conscience, you are subject only to the laws of the land and your brain and your conscience are the best tools to handle these.
Are you one that believes that there is something more than life on earth? In other words, you believe in double punishment or reward; that if you have been reprimanded here on earth there is further punishment awaiting you when you die.

What about the Devil, Satan, Lucifer or the evil gods of other religions? What part do they play in all of these? People who are caught doing wrong are quick to blame the devil for their actions and in some other religions, evil spirits are blamed for their plight. Be it cancer, sickle cell, diabetes,etc, when something is inexplicable, you hear shouts like it is in God’s hands, the gods are responsible or the devil is at work. When tsunamis, mudslides, hurricanes and other natural disasters occur, I do not hear any body blaming God since in the context of Islam, Xtianity and Judaism, they claim he is the creator of all. Should he not have armed man with the ability to avert the disasters brought on by nature? Why are the disasters there in the first place? I get confused when something horrible happens & Xtians say that it is the will of God, only God knows best, the Lord works in amysterious way. If all of these be the case what is the devil responsible for????
Some religions blame it on the evil gods who probably have over-powered the good gods which makes more sense.
Famine claims millions of lives and yet they say it is the will of God or the gods. In a few countries, famine will never be known because man has found the solution. Everyday & second man is developing and solving some more problems. When the going is good, people will say, ”I thank God for that” and then when disaster strikes , they will shout “ Oh my God why me?” But mean while you claim that he knows best. So submit yourself entirely & stop grumbling or abandon ship & let your conscience dictate.

Do not blame God or the gods or even the devil for your woes. Even you have become independent of your parents & so will your children some day. So leave God or whoever alone and do your thing.
