If you ever wondered how did life on Earth began, wonder no more - simple chemistry. Chemical reactions synthesized organic compounds from inorganic precursors. A recent publication regarding the results from the Miller-Urey experiment shows that he was actually more successful than he thought. By using modern techniques it was shown that the experiment actually produced 22 amino acids and 5 amines not just 5 amino acids as Miller reported in 1953.
So what’s the big deal? The amino acids are considered the building blocks of life. “Just as the letters of the alphabet can be combined to form an almost endless variety of words, amino acids can be linked in varying sequences to form a vast variety of proteins.” In other words, put some in a pond of water and 4 billion years later you will have democratic elections.
That’s right, there is no need for God to exists. Life is just natural phenomenon.
Our inferior minds are the reason for the concept of god. We refuse to accept that life has no father and no mother. We refuse, we are afraid to accept that we are on our own. In our mind we need somebody to protect us, a parental figure responsible for us. We are like kids lost in the universe, looking for our father to protect us. Wake up, he doesn’t exist.
There were thousands of gods in the history of humanity. Wars were fought in their name and millions died and nobody remembers those gods anymore. What do you think will happen with the gods we currently believe in? They will die, with us… because they don’t exist outside of our imagination.
Which God would allow 5 years old kids to die from leukemia? Which God would allow killing of his creatures, animals for our amusement? None! We are delusional.
Nothing should be believed except that which was tested through direct observation and logical deduction:
“Is God willing to prevent evil, but no able?
Then he is not omnipotent.Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.Is he both able, and willing?
Then whence cometh evil?Is he neither able not willing?
Then why call him God?”~Epicurus 341 BC
There is no need to fear God! Epicurus had the answer without any knowledge in microbiology, spectroscopy and amino acids - 2300 years ago. If you ever want to have a philosophy about life - read Epicurus.
A misused concept, God is causing more troubles than good at this point. It is like we still live in the dark ages of human civilization! “Fear, and you will save your soul” - this is something you should never accept! “God told me to make war” - this is something you should never believe!
Why are we still tolerant towards the ignorance of religious people? Why are we still fighting religious wars? Why are we allowing to be controlled by delusional religious “messiahs” that “talk” with God?
Life is a product of the natural evolution of the universe. There is nothing extraordinary about Earth - just a dot in middle of nowhere. Look at the picture that Voyager 1 took when it was 6.4billion km away. Do you see the blue dot? That’s Earth.
Everybody you know is there. All of your hopes and dreams are there too. Everything you will ever have is on that dot.
It is sad that one day it will all disappear. In about 1 billion years the Earth will become so hot, all the oceans will evaporate. No life will be able to survive. About 3 billion years later the Earth will disappear into the Sun.
So, when you think about all this - amino acids, billions of years, the inevitable death of Earth… does it feel like it was all created by some super being? Why did God had to create this enormous universe and place us in the middle of fucking nowhere? Why not just create a completely black sky? It will get the job done. It will keep us on Earth occupied with whatever he wants us to be occupied.
What would be the purpose to create us and then disappear for thousands of years? If he is omnipotent, he could have just made us “ready”, without the need to evolve following some commandments. It just doesn’t make any sense.
Do you know what the most ridiculous thing in the bible is? - How he created the Earth in 6 days. Why 6 days and not instantaneously? And who was taking the notes about what exactly he said and did while creating the Earth?
For me personally, all I need to realize that there is no god is to see suffering animal.
God is dead, it is official…
