My Own Spirituality

All my life I have heard different interpretations of what God is suppose to be like. I've heard that he's a loving and caring god who resembles a father to his children. Yet I've also heard that God is vengeful, cruel and unfair and resembles a flaming spirit who views all as vile and evil. I'll be the first to admit that i'm not a very religious or spiritual man. But I have always been fascinated by the idea of God or other spiritual Deity's such as Zeus. I've always questioned why he did what he choose to do even though they try to explain it in the bible. I especially questioned Gods "Laws" from the bible things such as you can't live with someone unless your married or the most talked about "Law" that two people of the same sex cannot be together. After a long time of thinking about this topic I have finally come to a decision about what type of person God is. I believe that God doesn't care about what you are the only thing he cares about is are you a good person or not? I believe God doesn't care if your black, white, asian, european, hispanic, gay, straight, buddhist, jewish, christian or muslim. I believe  that as long as your a good person then he loves you because you are his child and he will allow you into heaven. As long as you care about, respect, accept and love your fellow man and woman then you are considered a good person and thus you deserve to go to heaven. If you hate, discriminate, hurt, abuse or take away your fellow man and woman's rights then you are considered evil and thus not allowed into heaven. I believe God created us and gave us free will so that we could do what makes us happy and thus makes others around us happy. I believe that God make us different to make us unique not inferior. I believe God wants the unity of all men as badly as the any of us and while not directly he does help to show us the way to happiness and he teaches us its up to us to claim that happiness and share it. I believe he made us unique and different as a way to make us independent and strong and with that strength bring us all closer together.

The Division Effect

The division affects many people in many different ways to many it cause separation and personal problems to others it gives that an ideal or goal to fight for which is to end the division. Its caused family members to argue and fight over whats best for who or whats right or wrong. Its caused others to be treated as outcast or freaks. The growing division has caused many debates, arguments, protest and speeches. It has caused people to think what is right and what is wrong  and who has the power to determine whats right and wrong? It caused people to take sides and turn on each other and made people wonder about the future of others. It has even gone as far as lead to violence that continues to grow worse and worse everyday that it is not fixed. This is why I choose to do this project because I see how this division causes such pain, sadness, separation, and intolerance and I hope to help end it as quickly as possible before it has a more negative affect on this society.

Revealing the Division

People always search for the truth no matter how deep it goes believing that the people deserve to know the truth and that they can handle whatever the truth holds. While some people spend their whole lives hiding the truth claiming its better if the people never knew the truth. To them its a way of protecting the general public. To me i've always believed that the people deserve to know the truth and that no one has the power or can handle the responsibility of determining what people can or can't know. Whether people handle the truth responsibly or not having them learn it through research, revealing and exposing lies creates more problems than it prevents. Learning more about the division that is present in todays society will allow people to try and come up with a solution quicker without letting things get worse. The division I hope to reveal is the separation that is created by those that are intolerant to other peoples choices for their life against those that defend their right to love whoever makes them happy and whoever they choose. Unfortunately it is a problem that many refuse to acknowledge that it even exist or create a solution to. I hope to reveal to people the injustice that has been done to other for simply doing what they love and offer a solution that will ensure everyones equality, freedom and happiness.
