And by adherence to a religion, people dont necessarily become God. Yes, religion have been used to divide ... but so have language, culture, race or education even. Even property left by a dying (loving) father is made the source of animosity.
However, same things can add as being the source of beauty and unity. When we see religion as a way of life, a code of ethics, a progressive revelation necessarily enriching the same philosophy of the existence of God and soul - in successive volumes of letters/messages from the Supreme Creator.
ya ,those who cant accpet the creation, how they accept the creator??
The way you describe religion is motivated by the already unfavored concept of NEGATIVE PEACE. But, the concept of POSITIVE PEACE teaches a much more reliable and motivating approach.
Dont b worried about the boats of religious sects? Is it not desirable that we should swim over ourselves to God... In fact, there is no boat of religion.... Boats are named only for the profession of the boatmen.... The only way is self...swimming....truth can be found out only by self effort....nobody else can give it. One has to swim in the sea of truth by himself. There is no other support.... Those who look out for support get drowned near the coast itself, and those who take up courage to swim for themselves cross it over even after a little drowning...
Anyways ... its such a topic which would need a thorogh debate in its own thread.
With all love, praise and salutations of Krishna ... let this topic remain in praise for worship of the source of life. The Creator.--yup👍🏼
