Beliefs

We all have beliefs and when more than one person believes the same thing it becomes religion for them.

The problem arises when those with beliefs attempt to impose those beliefs on others.

It applies to everything in our lives – both privately and person to person among family and friends and publicly where it concerns humans in general.

A lot of beliefs that are held dear by a lot of people often don’t withstand the test of logic and reason.

Abortion, government, human rights are all beliefs that are tested each second that humanity continues to exist.

Knowledge slowly influences those beliefs – for example the world is not flat as once once believed by many humans.

What then should we believe in first?

The truth.

But then what is the truth?

Therein lies the conundrum. Is truth merely just another belief? Is what is true for me -true for you?

Is everything black or white?

Perhaps, just perhaps we should focus in on nature as a guide to what we should believe.

For example -nature provides all life with what is needed to sustain life.

Why then do we destroy nature?

Let’s RE-start at that point and slowly work our way forward as a species.
