The Questions
What do you think if most of the truth you believe is nothing more than a fiction?
Did you really read and analyze your own holy-book? What did you got from it?
Better than any science book, technical book, constitution book, modern psychological book? Or better than any kind of book you’ve ever read?
If you said: “Yes, it’s better than any book in this entire universe!”, so then how often you’ve read it, before you get bored and not even try to finish it?
Does it sound came from God, or it just came from our great-great-ancestors?
Who have created all of those amazing truth/untruth stories, God or them?
For how long the mankind will stay believe in such of truth/untruth?
The Miracle
There was a time when the magician is a one of most reputable profession. In fact, magic was a kind of the most effective tool to make people believe in something irrational, something beyond their reality. Typically, people in the ancient times were hardly to believe in the prophets before they were truly showed some unbelievable magic. It was about magic, magic, and shows more magic; and some of them called it: The Miracle.
In some of case, a magician need a lot of assistance to make his magic looks (and sounds) more spectacular. And every great magician not walks alone. Some of their assistants pretend as the active-audiences, or as the active-volunteers. While the others do video-editing and documentary, finance and marketing stuffs, technical assistance, making some incredible rumors and testimonials, etc. And one more secret, the best miracle mostly won’t appear at the live-show.
Did you ever see when Mr. David Copperfield made the Liberty Statue really disappear? Truthfully, the statue wasn’t disappearing at all, neither was moving. The things were moved: the camera and the magician himself (and other supported “peripherals”). That was a nice trick, and successfully made some of people believe that the statue was really disappearing at that moment. And for some reason, that’s how the miracle had believed by its believers.
Starts from the Mind
Did you ever hear people say: “Most of the illness starts from the mind”?
Some of the people search for spiritualists; and by miraculously, they got healed.
I believe in medical science, to solve any medical problems. But I also believe that science can not always solve everything, maybe not yet.
Strange Than a Fiction
In many case, unfortunately (or fortunately?), people get easily believe in rumors rather than analyze the group of complex facts. Most of the people love rumors and well-spreading it, and also putting some additions of their own version within, intentionally or unintentionally. Rumor became more enhanced since it was first originated. Sometimes, it became strange than a fiction.
The group of rumors which own the similarity will be assumed as the truth. Since the truth requires its witness; and then, there are various imaginary-witnesses associated to it.
Just Follow the Master
How it became as the common belief?
When the king says: “All of you must jump!”, and then suddenly everybody jump by his command, without any question.
The most effective way - to propagate a new principle to become as the common belief - is getting close to the master and then influence him, in the easy way or in the hard way.
In a kind of the master-slaves relationship; the master is everything while the slaves are nothing. So the slaves must follow the master; if not, they will get punished. The slaves mostly have no choice.
But in this era, the master-slaves relationship is no longer much relevant anymore, except in some traditional cultures, such as religions.
Sad but True
Do you really want to know the truth is?
Now you maybe live great and peacefully because those lies serve you very well.
You only see what you want to see.
You only hear what you want to hear.
You only read what you want to read.
You only learn what you want to learn.
You only know what you want to know.
You only think what you want to think.
You only believe what you want to believe.
And so are your parents, your grand-parents, and your great-ancestors.
And so are your children as well, perhaps.
Did you see poverty when you start to eat your meal?
Did you hear someone screaming when you have a nice quiet sleep?
Did you read the news that tells people die everyday because of war, murder, starvation, and disease?
Did you learn another religion beside yours?
Did you know what people know about you?
Did you think human-slavery when you having a great sex?
Did you believe that God and Devil is the same actor?
While you think that you deserve of heaven, some ones have lost their faith in everything you believe. In the contrary, maybe they are not as evil as you are.
