The Basics

God
 The oxford dictionary defines God as: -
1 God(in Christianity and other monotheistic religions) the creator and supreme ruler of the universe.
2 (god) a superhuman being or spirit worshipped as having power over nature and human fortunes.

Common attributes to god- omnipotency,  Supreme being, Creates everything, Loves everything, controls everything etc etc the list is endless. Endless is also the list of inconsistencies with the definition.
If he is omnipotent why is there misery? why the hell does he create faulty human beings in the first place and then sends them to hell? Why people fight in his name and die? 

The whole concept has a lot of  inconsistencies attached with it. I could go on and on but could never put it as structured as Epicurus (Circa 300 BC). 300 years before christ the truth was out, thats before christaianity and Islam (half the world). Epicurus lists the following Mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive list of scenarios and conclusions on each scenario.

 

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.

Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.

Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?

Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?

Got to hand it to them, the greeks were truly gods (chuckle) of reasoning.This is him in the statue. What a powerful argument he puts forth.

My take: God did not create man, infact its the opposite. Man created God. God is a manifestation of the deep seated need for assurance and fear of the unknown. Most people need to believe that there is someone out there looking out for them as they cannot come to terms with the fact that they are immaterial in this dynamic universe.

Will i pass this exam? will i ever be rich? will i get that girl i always loved? Will i get cured from this disease?

These are the sort of questions to which most people seek answers daily. What if the answer to all these questions was " NO, u are going to live in destitution and die a loser". Most people fear this and pray to an imaginary friend who they thinks will take care of things.  Such Delusion is dangerous and i feel can do no one any good. Get up, dust yourself, pull up your socks and face any challenge u have without using this imaginary support system.

Long story short - There is no God, Now stop worrying and live your life.
