Wrapped in the cocoon of self consciousness,we have grappled with the complexities and intrigues of our primeval essence.As a species,we have tried to profer solutions to the mind bugging,ageless question of our identity,origin,purpose and destination . As a consequence of the confusion we have found our selves,various schools of human consciousness have proferred answers that have left us more bewildered than ever.We find ourselves surrounded by a cacophony of opinions without the prospect of convergence.
Devoid of adequate understanding and exhibiting exhuberance in ignorance,we attributed every phenomenon that defied our logic and cognition to some force or metaphysical element and brewed a concoction of deities.Some say these deities are primodal beings while others believe that they are the essence of our forebears watching over us.When we have questions,we run to them.When we have problems,we ask them to solve them.We make elaborate sacrifices and pour libations,each cult featuring a distinct style.
To the intellectual mind,I have this question.Will man's existence be defined by a bouquette of deities and elemental forces?How can we then presume the validity of our carnal theology,considering that mankind is still unable to fill the void in his soul.Neither the concepts of monotheism or polytheism is solving man's crisis in his desire for a connection with the supernatural.
That there is a suprenatural is an established fact.Man's science alludes to that fact.Where we need insight now is:What or Who is behind the supernatural? We have choosen lofty pursuits in our bid to answer this question.We have fought wars,built contraptions and in fact defined various civilizations on various answers to this question. History is a catalogue of man's abyssmal failure in his attempt to find the primodal force and understand the primeval order of the universe.In all the lofty pursuits that have made up the disciplines, civilizations and cultures of man,there is yet to be found a convergent,exhustive and conclusive view that answers once and for all,the question of the mystry of the supernatural.Where then are the answers we seek?Have we beel looking in the wrong places?
The simple things of life reveal in startling clearity an intelligent influence from an eternal agency.The atheist recognises this fact.
Where then are our gods and why have they failed us? In the three domains of our human consciousnes- memory,contemplation and imagination, we find that the gods live in our brains!They only were a figment of our imaginations,our "quick-fixes" to our dilema,each one leading us down the downward spiralling path of self anihilation.Our being oblivious of the essence of our existence has left us more perplexed about our existence than we ever were.We are driven by frustration to find alternative fixes for our depravity.We find the truth about God quaint.It is too simple,we need lofty answers saturated with jargons.How foolish have we become!Where are our gods now?Where is the science,philosophy,logic and all the other mental inventions we so highly exhalt?
This is my conclusion:As much as you try,concoct more theories and philosophies,your gods never existed,they were in your head!There were no gods,there are no gods and there will never be gods.There is only one God -Jehovah,the author of the universe,And he is not in the complex philosophies,theories and equations (products of your imagination,your gods which you worship!).He is in the simple things of life.Look around you.
