Fire

آری، آری ، زندگی زیباست زندگی آتشگهی دیرنده پا برجاست گر بیفروزیش، رقص شعله اش در هر کران پیداست ورنه، خاموش است وخاموشی گناه ماست سیاوش کسرایی / / / / / Life is like fire, can burns forever. If we turn it on we can see flame dances from far away, other wise its dark and thats our fault.

I was talking to one of our campus minster and he believed that there are things in bible /(religious books) that you can't believe in them.
It was very interesting for me to hear this from a minster!

He also believe that to be a religious person, you have to be wise, cause in details there are lots of contrary informations, Informations that could be contrary with science and "our" logics (21st century believes).
He believed that one should just look at bases, not get confused by details, bases are the ones which are common for all religious all cultures and all races(love), not the details that bring separations and arguments and fights.

he totally believed that religion and morality are not black and white, there are lots of shades of grey in between. Religion does not have answers for all the questions and thats the beauty of it.
He believed that only a kid needs all answer and wants every thing in black and white, so he would know what is expected from him, and if he doesn't have an answer he would feel insecure.
A mature mind would not need every thing in black and white and all answers. The mature mind can think and make decision and make choices,( I'm not sure how that would work in society;), seems God had more trust in ppl that i do ;) )
I remember I heard some thing like that from Dr. Elahi Ghomsheiee too, He said there are lots of contrary informations in our religious book, there are there just as a prove to amuse you, and show that its not a simple book and you can find different things regarding how you look at it.
