I'm back again! I'm really beginning to enjoy this, and it's only been four days!
My family is really quite religious, but is God even real? If there is a God, how do we know? Did some people just make up the idea of a divine being one day because they needed something to hold onto? Or is it really as the Bible says?
I cannot say I am a believer, yet I cannot say I am not one either. If I tell Mum this she’ll get really mad.
But that's why I write my thoughts down here. Where no one will ever read them. Speaking of people reading this, I need to find somewhere to hide this diary of mine don't I? I can do that later. I'm getting off track.
Anyway, if God is real, then why do so many horrible events occur? Why do human beings so often choose hatred over love? Why do people die so tragically and painfully, leaving their friends, family, and acquaintences to mourn in their wake? Why were some born with such unfortunate disabilities? Why do I have these thoughts everyday? Every minute? Does anyone else think like this? If a God really exists then they're quite cruel…. Are they not?
I do not understand the scientific reasons for the world's creation either though.
How do things evolve? How could that be possible? How could we possibly go from apes to these humanoid creatures that only grow hair in certain places; rather than all over our bodies?
And a giant explosion is how the world first came to be? How do living things and resources come from an explosion?
I feel so uninformed, this is why I'm failing science at school. To be completely honest, I'm great at science, top of the class even! But my teacher does not like me because I ask too many questions that send her into a hurricane of confusion, looking for an answer. That is no reason to dislike me though, I must say. I'm just curious.
Why do human beings despise curiosity so? Is it because of that saying 'curiosity killed the cat'? But then how can one saying change the way so many people see things?
Oh well, we can get into that at a later date.
