Why should I believe in such a thing which is beyond
the perception of my senses? Without doubt, there are things which our senses
cannot feel but they still exist.
God is also put in such category. It is believed
that no normal human being is capable to feel the existence of the God. It is
the great sages who have direct access to God and through them a normal human
being can get into touch with Him. Prophet Mohammad and Jesus Christ are two such
living examples. They were God’s representatives on this earth bestowed with
the duty to make people aware of the holy message of the God.
God and religion have been the hotly debatable topics
since ancient time. They have been the matter of prove and disprove. They have
received many interpretations from across the varied field of study. Still no
consensus has been arrived.
The greatest physicist of our time Stephen Hawkins
has hypothesized that the universe is governed by the law of nature not by the
will of God. In his opinion God has no direct and indirect influence on these
laws of nature hence our life is free from His jurisdictions. He presumes that
if God exists then certainly he be out of this universe which makes him totally
irrelevant for us. Galileo Galilee and Charles Darwin were the first scientists
who with their scientific methods challenged the existence of God.
All the points mentioned above makes it very
difficult for anyone to arrive at an agreeable conclusion.
Still there is a point where religion and science
seems to be agreed upon. In many religion of the world nature is worshiped and
given paramount importance. Similar is the case with science. Science has enormous
respect for the laws of nature. And it bestows its full faith in them.
The question “Who created this universe” is still
going to remain debatable. Science and religion both have no complete and
convincing answer to this question. But science definitely has beautifully explained
the phenomenon of origin of living being. In the book “”The Origin of Species” Darwin
explains that how nature and the living beings are connected to each other.
So my point is that instead of worshiping the God
and religion, why don’t we worship the Mother Nature? After all we are Her creation. We should pay much attention to understand the
Mother Nature and try live life accordingly. This line of thought will diminish
all the differences created by religions and bring all the human being closer.
