THERE IS NO CHOSEN PEOPLE, AND THERE NEVER WAS
THERE IS NO CHOSEN PEOPLE, AND THERE NEVER WAS
When a pandemic arises or a major discovery is made—such as gene therapies (Zolgensma) that now cure Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), saving babies who previously had no hope—people praise and defend Science. However, when Science proves something that contradicts what these same people believe, they claim it is a lie, a conspiracy theory, or the work of the "enemy."
What does Science actually say about us?
In short: we were not created by magic. All forms of life on Earth, including human life, emerged through an evolutionary process that continues to this day. This is a proven fact, though some prefer to live in illusion.
Science also proves that the human race is one. There are no "races" of human beings; there is only humanity. No one is superior to another because, biologically, we are all the same. Furthermore, we know that human beings have existed for over 200,000 years, not just 6,000 years as some beliefs suggest.
The Antiquity of Shiva and Archaeology
As an example of the world’s oldest spirituality, the worship of Shiva has existed for millennia. Its roots are far older than physical temples:
Pashupatinath: Dates back to periods between 5,000 and 7,000 years ago.
Kalpa Vigraha: There is an image of Shiva currently under scientific study with an estimated age of 26,000 BCE (over 28,000 years old).
Göbekli Tepe: Located in Turkey, this 11,500-year-old archaeological site challenges everything we thought we knew about early societies.
How could the Earth be only 6,000 years old in the face of these facts?
Saints and Sinners
There is not a single perfect human being. Everyone fails. In every nation, there are people capable of heroic sacrifices and people capable of atrocities.
God would have no just reason to choose one people over another, as there is no "pure race" or perfect people. God does not make choices that produce racism, selfishness, intolerance, hatred, or violence. He would never promise something that would turn the planet into a hell. No matter how much faith someone has or how much good they do, there is only one Holy Being: God. No one else is holy.
Beliefs and Traditions
There are thousands of beliefs, and all deserve respect as long as they do not violate Universal Human Rights. No religion should impose itself upon humanity.
There is no opposition between Science and faith. Science shows the order, the universal laws, and the exact calculations of the cosmos—nothing is a coincidence. Science does not "prove" God because that is not its function, and it would be unethical for Science to point to a "single God" in a world with millions of religions.
Individuality: Faith at Home
Each person has their own consciousness and way of understanding life. Therefore, there is no collective spirituality. God beholds the personal worship of each individual.
True worship happens in the intimacy of the home, between the Father and the devotee, in spirit and truth. Faith is not a "club" or a "carnival parade." We must accept what Science shows us and, instead of seeking exclusivism, seek a close relationship with Daddy. In the end, the only offering that truly gladdens Him is your Love.
