~~GOD IS DEAD~~1..
Friends, a new series of talks begins today: "God is Dead, Now Zen is the Only Living Truth." The series is dedicated to Friedrich Nietzsche, who was the first man in the history of mankind to declare: "God is dead, therefore man is free."It was a tremendous statement; its implications are many. First I would like to discuss Nietzsche's statement.
All the religions believe that God created the world and also mankind. But if you are created by someone, you are only a puppet, you don't have your own soul. And if you are created by somebody, he can uncreate you any moment. He neither asked you whether you wanted to be created, nor is he going to ask you: "Do you want to be uncreated?"
God is the greatest dictator, if you accept the fiction that he created the world and also created mankind. If God is a reality, then man is a slave, a puppet. All the strings are in his hands, even your life. Then there is no question of any enlightenment. Then there is no question of there being any Gautam the Buddha, because there is no freedom at all. He pulls the strings, you dance; he pulls the strings, you cry; he pulls the strings, you start murders, suicide, war. You are just a puppet and he is the puppeteer.
Then there is no question of sin or virtue, no question of sinners and saints. Nothing is good and nothing is bad, because you are only a puppet. A puppet cannot be responsible for its actions. Responsibility belongs to someone who has the freedom to act.

YOU ARE WORSE THAN CRAZY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will pray for you OWL,,,,,
In the end there are only two kinds of people...
Those who say to God thy will be done (believers).
And to those God says to them... Thy will be done. Have it your way! (unbelievers).
Whether heaven or hell, each will have it according to their free choice. For a loving God will force anyone to love Him and believe in Him.
God bless!
Serendipity, something tells me you meant to say "For a loving God will NOT force anyone to love Him and believe in Him."
God bless!
Are those your words or are they from someone else? If they are, please state whose. Otherwise, you are plagiarising.
