Smart Up and Dumb Down

I believe that Religion can dumb you down, and Science can smart you up. My belief is based on many years of diligent studies, observations, and personal experiences.

I don't mean to tell you to give up Religion altogether. I am saying that Religion is like wine. Abstinence can do you no harm. Moderation may do some good to your health. Over consumption can lead to death, yours and others.

Religion and Spirituality are not the same thing. Religion separates and imprisons people. Spirituality unites and liberates people. Spirituality is true religion, and Religion is false spirituality. Religious people would become violent and go to war to kill others. Spiritual people are non-violent and peace-loving. I hope I am not confusing you.

All said, it is only my view of looking at science, religion and spirituality. You may disagree with me and have a different view. It's O.K. I believe in freedom of choice. I am only sharing my thoughts and comments with you. I just don't care whether you are a theist, atheist, or agnostic, as long as you are a peaceful and reasonable person. Love and Peace to all !!!

Politicians

What politicians do not tell lies or make false promises ? What politicians always tell the truth, nothing but the truth ? The politicians' position is that their opponents are bad and wrong, and they are good and right. What if the voters have a free choice of a few apples, but they are all bad apples ? Want to look for hypocrites ? Go to the religious and political worlds. I guarantee you will find a few if not many hypocrites there.

P.S. To a friend Mary,whose husband was a politician: Hi Mary ... I know your family. A general truth is not an absolute truth. I'm sure there are some politicians who have a high level of integrity and sincerity. Indeed it is a challenge to be a politician working in a dirty pond of muddy water and be able to come out all clean and dandy. Canada is not too bad, but sadly, we are catching up with the world in corruption. To name a few: the senators, the mayors, the police, etc. etc. Cheers ! 

Thou Shall Not Kill

Thou shall not kill. Killing a human being including the killers is wrong. Only crazy people,religious people,and people blinded by money and power believe in violence,war,killing,retaliation,torture and punishment, not truly spiritual people of love and peace. Doing something wrong,like killing, to correct a mistake, like trying to stop killing,is not a spiritual solution. It is a quick-fixed illusion.It creates a never-ending negative karma.

The only time that you can kill is for self-defence, but even that, your motive is for self-defence, not to diliberately and unnecessarily kill the killer to make him die.War is a crime.Death penalty is not a solution.Stop all wars and death penalty, if humanity wish to become truly advanced and civilized.

Is Lady Gaga a man ?

Is Lady Gaga a man? Is she an inter-sex or hermaphrodite ?

Some religious, conservative and primitive people have no love, no spirituality and no scientific understanding, yet they think they are superior and normal. They discriminate against the gay people, bi-sexual people and trans-gender people, but I have found that some of the greatest artists and musicians are actually these people.

What is the true meaning of Lady Gaga's song 'Born This Way'? Do you know anything about the rumor that Lady Gaga is partly a man ? I am just curious. Whatever Lady Gaga is, she is marvelous !!!
