On Religion and Society
(A Compilation)
Metaphysical & Spiritual since birth
"What is the
definition of GOD?"
I think GOD is a human perceived concept for an essence
undefinable.

I have abnegated my previously established religion.
Fortunately, at an early age, I understood what existence and life are and how
great their difference is.

I believe in the dualist pantheistic idea that the universe
and God is an identical force, and that everything, man and woman is unified
with the cosmic God. Taoism holds the notion that Heaven and I were created
together, and all things and I are one. Panendeism, especially in Hinduism,
would have the same stand, God is the Universe, and everything in it. Everyone
is God.

Is it because animals don't communicate the way humans do
that you see them inferior? Be ashamed, you don't communicate the same way they
do, so similarly, you are lowly, too. If we could only connect to the universal
"essence", then language isn't really necessary to understand each
other, in whatever life form, because creation has no voice, and vibration is
the only immanent language in our brains which transcends all boundaries of
existential beings.

When it comes to dealing with arguments about the Deity and
religion, human beings should be free to find, know, and worship God in their
own way. All views of God should be respected, so long as they do not cause
harm or oppress the views of others.
One day, a superior
asked me if I believed in heaven and hell and I replied no (not in the sense
you believe those to be), and it seemed to be a great shock for her. I didn't
expect her reaction as she would always say she's understanding. But I heard
the different tone of her voice as she presented her Christian views and
somehow, I felt insulted. Why then should I explain myself to people?

As long as there is religion, as long as people blindly
follow the beliefs HANDED DOWN to them, as long as each one thinks he's right
and the other's wrong, there'll be war. Throughout history, Disparity in
religion have always created violence. Love for peace and humanity doesn't need
you to conform to any institutionalized religion.
It's heartbreaking to hear about these continuous break-ups
in humanity.

I know this might creep you out, but some have also
considered this. There will be another major World War in addition to those in
the Islamic States within the next 20 years. I don't usually believe in
everything I say about the future, but I can't deny the ill premonitions I
have, just like many times before. Nations will break apart. Globalization will
also mean battle for humanity's sake.

I just want a peaceful and progressive country, not totally
perfect, under a leader whose values are incorruptible.

Poor Filipinos, woe to you my countrymen! How could you
lower your principles to a sickening level that you would rather consider the
honesty of someone's immorality as admirable? Why have you stooped so low, the
country's future is not one you see in action films, and the citizen do not
deserve a life less inhumane and laws not near to being unconstitutional and
moral? Are you all so hopeless and helpless? Change in the government starts
with you and not with who you put in charge. What would become of the nation?

I miss the beaches of the Philippines--the smell of brine in
the breeze as I idly stroll along the shores, the biting saltiness of the
seawater on my lips and eyes as I dive into the cool depths below, the sight of
underwater life forming a mirage of a distorted rainbow, the fine sun-heated
sand sticking between my toes as my feet sinks into it, the clouds languidly
moving in the clear azure sky, and the delicious aroma from grilled fish and
meat for lunch.

If you're travelling to the Philippines on a budget and
expect to experience authentic local food in the streets, you'll just be
disappointed. Good food are always served in houses for family and friends and
in restaurants for other locals. Street food isn't like what you'll find in
other Asian countries. In the Philippines, cheap food is cheap for a reason.

I don't love humanity but I hope for its survival only if we
limit birth rates. I might be one of those who are insensitive human beings and
I am glad I don't think like everybody else.

If only the earth could be shredded into bills, the
money-hungry society wouldn't need to worry about scarce material
possession...what are left for them to buy and own anyway?

How utterly unfortunate to be sharing the same race with so
many cruel, heartless other humans! I am not one to say I'm as spotless as a
white slate, but I am so upset with the human's imposing superiority over other
life forms on Earth and how they disrespectfully treat the poor animals, other
people and the environment in the most incorrigibly deplorable ways! Humans
have become the large over-breeding cockroaches, the parasite that exhausts the
planet, the virus that kills all other life, and the destruction to itself.

Language, my friends, is alive. Accent is the color that
makes it vibrant. By large, no one is better or worse in communication by
judging only the accent. I foresee the radical change of the native-ness of English language to a
globalised multi-standard English in which it is not exclusive to those born in
the UK, US, Canada, NZ and Australia anymore. Accent and regional slang matter
no more. Pretty sure, the dictionaries would definitely be revised for the new
language of the world. The old Germanic language has sure gone through a
tremendous change over the centuries. Mankind is soon building the tower of
Babel.
