258 Decoding Utopia

[image: self]

Every religion has their own version of Utopia, except Buddha with its promise to end its reincarnation cycle. Islam and Christian Utopia has a similarity in the goal, a good & holy place without any sin. But how the society can’t ever found a problem in its cycle. Every problems are created by individual and social interaction. Men has tried to manage this problem since the beginning of their ages, from imperialism, socialism, liberalism, even the most totalitarian system to every individualism created another problem. Religion use a totalism ideology, as you can see today and from history, it can’t answer to all society problem fairly. In my point of view, the idea of heaven seems vague. Even if a utopia filled with unlimited resources, the social interaction & the difference of each individual create problems.
The Catholics believe in purification of souls in purgatory concept, but isn’t it as same as making a new human as pure as the day he/she born, without the beauty of knowledge and thinking. Even the communist did that. It’s the elimination of human nature that makes human unique, isn’t it going back to the fear of emptiness that we’ve feared since the first time…

254 The Humanist

I do think god is cruel.
He sent a choosen people to define the path to heaven.
Through his massive power in society,
he could persuade people & break the unity of the society.
Creating hell on earth & fake utopia up ahead.
Bashing the homo in blessing from their fags loving god.
Damning the humanist as the cause of all evil.
Exploiting the society in the name of holy cause.
Each religion created their own version of Hitler as the son of God.
