Thou art God...
Oh we'd still be just as bad. We'd be hurting and lashing out at each other anyways. Majority of people don't respect other people's views to begin with and harass bully and cut each other down. |

God is other people? Where does that logic chain end if followed? It's a shame that humanity as whole didn't develop to hold the perspective that humans are indeed sacred, and also teach this to their children as they raised them. By teaching our childern that sacredness belongs to some external deity we've deprived them of being able to view each other as being sacred. The real irony stems from one of the most popular religions in the world today; Christianity. Christianity is supposed to be based on the teachings of Jesus. And the doctrine holds that Jesus taught that whatever we do to our brothern we do to Jesus. Yet, Christians can be quite nasty and violent toward their fellow humans. Historically they've been known to disrupt and destroy the spiritual temples of anyone who doesn't appear to be worshiping Jesus. They burned midwives at the stake in Jesus' name in the belief that they had sold their souls to some evil Satan, another spiritual character in their religious doctrine. To this day they continue to denounce and harrass same-gender lovers, and basically anyone who does not embrace their bigotry in the name of Jesus Christ. They reject the knowledge of modern science in favor of ancient myths of a jealous God who turns people into pillars of salt, floods the entire planet, and who is so desperate and helpless against an evil Satan that this God ultimately must sacrifice his only begotten son to save mankind from the unruly Satan. Yes, I do indeed believe that we'd be far better off had we simply been taught to view each other as Gods. That would have made for a far better humanity. If we could only help those who worship the jealous desperate gods of ancient mythology to actually treating and viewing their brothers with divine respect we'd be much further ahead. That's an uphill battle to be sure. So many people seem to actually enjoy condemning their brothers in the name of their jealous mythological Godhead. It's truly sad.
