Thanks Aniket for the suggestion. I will definitely check it out.
I absolutely loved your comment and question. Few of my blog readers actually engage with me in a conversation, glad you did.
You are right, they could say the same thing for God. But here’s the thing, I also said love is momentary, I said it doesnt stay. What stays is respect and understanding. I see at love as a state of mind, it comes goes. Yes it makes you lose reason and logic but that doesn’t help you in the long run, it only helps you to find some one and establish a relationship, but to maintain a life long relationship you need to see reason. The world would be a chaos if we discard reason and logic.
Secondly, the love I am talking about is for a person, a human being. You can see, feel hear this person. To be in a loving relationship with this person he/she would have to reciprocate your love. If not reciprocate at least acknowledge.
None of these is true about the concept of God. God is only a thought. It can neither reciprocate nor acknowledge, u cant hear, see, feel God.
And most importantly, you need a good reason to be in this kind of love that I am talking about. You love some one for his/her qualities. How would you establish this reason with God? Why should anybody love God?
My trouble with theism is endless. Love is personal, its between two individuals, at the most it involves the family, but God and therefore religion have been made into a public matter. I have no problem if ppl kept their faith and love for God behind closed doors, like you can’t make love in public, you shouldn’t be allowed to perform rituals or shout devotional music or take out religious procession in public. Keep your love for God to yourself don’t preach.
Sanjukta, I will reply to this comment on your blog, since I noticed that you cross posted it there as well and also becuase this pertains to your blog. Thanks for the comment though.
Your thoughts on Atheism on the About Nitwit page is the mirror of my thoughts. I mean I felt I am reading my own blog. And am absolutely impressed by your style of writing. And guess what, this wordpress theme must be popular amongst atheists, I had it for 3 years, just last month I moved to a new wordpress theme.
I call myself politically atheist, do you know what I mean?
Thanks a lot Sanjukta for your kind words. You are extremely gracious. I read my about page again after a long time (since I couldn’t remember exactly what I wrote) and I was embarassed to find quite a few typos and grammatical errors – errors which made me cringe and would have surely embarrased my english teacher – so I am quite sure you have probably read much well-written, better-articulated blogs than mine. However, I am happy that you could agree with what I had to say.
Btw, I am aware of a certain type of political atheism which disbelieves in goverments and the moral higher ground it takes in certain policies. Is that what you are referring to? If not, I would like to learn more about it.
