God ---- The Myth

Right from  childhood, I have had this doubt... Do god listen to my prayers?. As I grew, the incertitude kept on escalating. The more rational I am turning into, the more are my questions.

In one of the classes in 7th class, My social studies teacher Mr. Chenna K Reddy, made a short note on the number of languages spoken in India. The very same moment, raised the first question, How can god understand these many languages? Suppose God understands and speaks all languages, why will he communicate to me? There are billions out there who are seeking god's attention.

One of the first things we hear from our elders is "God is everywhere, he will be watching you".. I came to a conclusion that even if he is present, the only thing he does is only watching!. If he had involved with our lives, we would not be doing any wrong and nothing unethical would be happening around. There would have been no murderers, rapists, sociopaths et al..

Why do we prayer when we are nervous? when we are frightened? Why do we pray when we get something which we didn't expect? when he protects us? If god was actually there, you wouldn't be frightened, you wouldn't be nervous... There wouldn't been no wars, communal riots... But why are they!!

Let say Some random guy proclaims that he is the "god". Do you believe him?.. No, you don't because you think even if god existed, he wouldn't just appear in front o3f you because you think he is above all. We believe in something which is non-existent and has powers to cure our problems, But we don't have the same confidence ourselves. Good or bad, we always have some one to blame for because we don't blame ourselves and we are devoid in our hearts

God is the myth... God is virtual, he is invented/reinvented to take the blame, when something does not go our way.
