Before I become atheist, I was feeling like that I had a responsibility to spread the God message to everyone I knew. Due to my Christianity family, I should sacrifice my time, effort, and energy to support my family, friends and communities. I learned how to respect my parents, be obedient, find out love, companionship and forgiveness. They took me to be baptized when I was one-year-old newborn baby. They took us to church, educated us how to pray, how to serve in church, but my parents’ responsibility towards elderly family members was failed. The battle between families always happened and endless to make their relationship was haywire.
Once I realized that I need to donate or give a portion of my savings to the church, I thought it should be a profit organization to attract more money and put them into the pastors’ pocket. Every Sunday we would like to be taught about the purification of our hearts, but they never reflects our reality in the real world. I have never seen anything make me more confident towards God. God never help us even though we were suffering a lot of painful or difficult times.
Some religions definitely can give hope to the weak, the desperate, helpless, but so does science. Medicine can cure a sick, physics tells us how things works well, science can improve our daily quality but how about the bible or the religious book, somehow, they were just destroying many families and always picking a fight about the differences between cultures, morality, religious thinking, and etc. All of us in the earth are sinful, we are not perfect but why people think they are right in their way of thinking?
For my opinion, religion is a personal matter. We should not touch it or force someone down the throats of believers in fairy tales. Instead, we should bring up some concerned topics, including laws, national media, science, schools…
There was a saddening news about the Shinzo Abe has been killed last Friday. The murderer hated the religious party for his mother giving all their family savings to the organization. He deliberately to kill the head of the party but he hardly to close with him. Finally, he changed his plan and revenged on this greatest leader in Japan and shocked the world. It is alleged that the gunman held a grudge against the Japanese former president for religious reasons.
I personally gave a warning to everyone who wants to bring up the topic of religious, it is sure to be a good way to draw a complaint, lose your job, or worsen the relationship between friends. To conclude this, please do not touch the topic of religion.
