Why?

Why do people look at the universe and say that everything is so orderly, and everything has its place, therefore there must be a god?

Since when do sentinent beings create order in nature? Isn't it always the opposite?

There is a great need for a sense of order, stability, security. An almighty god is the perfect solution for that... In fact it comes from being opressed by the lack of order, the transient and impermanent nature of things...

Everything so orderly and beautiful, like sunsets and the perfume of flowers all proof of the loving God.That's just what the Jehovah Witnesses said when they called the other day . When I asked them about earthquakes, volcanoes, tidal waves, bushfires,drought, floods etc they said they'd come back for an answer. Still waiting.

i believe in a clock-work universe

the basic law is that what you give is what you get

the buddist call it karma

the longer it comes back

the greater the interest to be paid

no matter it's good or bad

big events in the likes of earthquakes

are because of collective karma

and some piece of earth will never have it

if the collective karma is okay

the individual will feel it more intensively

the results of his / her own thoughts and actions

and it's a law that cannot be change

is the same for all beings

and it says

what you give out is what you get...
