Hello Gabbie. Love Gabbie.

Is God REALLY out there? Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not an atheist nor an agnostic but one can’t help but wonder at this question that has been asked for years.

Devotees answer yes because of their strong believes that hypnotizes them to believe that there is something out there - a higher power. Probably greater than we could have ever imagined, bigger than our hopes and dreams. This is what they call “faith”.

Skeptics on the other hand are more rational that there is not just one God, there could be a lot of Gods. or that “God” can be an alien because it is sometimes referred as “the being from above”. or maybe, that there is no such thing as a God.

Maybe there is, maybe none. But why do a lot of people go to church every Sunday or do catholic traditions? or why is it that some state decisions are affected by the church?

“Religion is the opium of the masses” by Nietzsche is one of the best quotes i’ve heard. In the Philippines or any other catholic-induced country, the religion is so strong that it can influence the decisions of the citizens and its state. It can blindly control it’s government without the people knowing it.

Religion has made us blind to believe in something we can’t even see. Don’t get me wrong, I am a catholic myself but I know when something is being foolish or not. I have my own mind that has been awaken by the environment and nature but I know that there is a higher power out there, maybe God or who is one of us. We don’t know. and I don’t think we will ever know.
