Beyond belief: The existing essence of a religion

Why the comparison between monotheism and polytheism is considered unhealthy? First of all, those who engage in this unhealthy debate doesn't even know the existence of the god. The essence of these beliefs stems from being a builder of good life. But once they experience the comfort of religious shell, things go out of hand. A mere belief for wellness and prosperity turning into an ideology for hatred and violence. The core essence still not changed. What actually changed is the way of interpretation. Interpretation is contextual and seasonal. With time and situation, the message we receive from religious ideology certainly differs. 

With the comfort and safeness, the tendancy to trigger people who believes in other religion gets in and slowly they revert. This will eventually turns into rivalry and violence. This is the reason we should be analytical about our beliefs and the core essence of its existence. Most of the religion that surpassed the hurdles of time has it's essence pivoted on the wellness of human beings.

When we look at those cultural scribings of activism, we could see that everything is limiting and designed to refrain is from our true potential. The hardest thing is not being unaware of this trap, it is being in the trap even after knowing you are in a trap. This makes us to think differently. Because we found something, probably, no one around found. It would be game changer for everyone. It could transform the society and culture, paving a more promising future for the generations to come. But what happen when we introduce this theory to those blind people is quite depressing. They mock and joke you, laugh a...
