Man is a survivor, dominator, and conqueror. Since the beginning of man on this planet, he has been the superior species through out time. There is one thing that has puzzled man ever since his first inception of a God. Man has always wondered… why am I here? What is my purpose? What is the reason for being the ruler of this world, if only to be ruled by a higher life form? Every man of every denomination believes that his way of rule is the way his God meant it to be. Man must prove to a God that he is worthy enough to live under his thumb in his kingdom of heaven. Then man dies not knowing for sure if there really is an after life. Now what can be said about the role of Woman in the eyes of God. In my opinion, women can be equal to man in almost every way if that's what they want. What a beautiful gift from God.A creation from the rib of man for man, for his companionship, for his pleasure and to procreate his species. Man may believe the teachings of the Holy Bible and he may not. If he does not believe, will he not be eligible to enter the realm of what is called Heaven? According to the Holy Scriptures, he will burn! He will be thrown into the lake of fire, condemned to exist in a hell for an eternity. Now what kind of a being would do this to another soul, just for having a different opinion or set of beliefs. If he does believe, will he be insured of acceptance? Would you give your life to save another human life? If their beliefs were different from yours, would you let them die? How would God view this? Why would you die saving someone that is already condemned for believing differently? Religion teaches us that only handfuls will be resurrected to live out eternity in a place which we are led to believed to be the perfect society. When man dies, there is no guarantee that he will be chosen as one of the few to go on. Of the millions of humans to pass away over the centuries, how many tried to live that perfect life according to the word of God so they could get into heaven? It's almost like playing the lottery, those that don't play, have no chance of winning, those that do play may not win either. Knowing this doesn't mean that we shouldn't try to live the best life that we can. Man still needs to be kind and generous to all life as we know it. Life has so much to offer as long as man doesn't create suffering, or abuse the lives of others just for his own selfish needs. The problem is that man has already caused this to happen throughout history. Why is it that every other living thing on Earth has evolved to suit its' environment? Yet man, according to the Bible, is not part of this chain. Man did not evolve, man has not evolved. Man, over time, through his actions has destroyed a great deal of life, including himself, in one way or another. Just to create an environment suitable for his needs. To this day, man is still bleeding and disrupting the ecological system to keep up with his advances and to create a more conventional way of life. Is this what God expected to happen when he granted to man this kingdom to rule? That man would take it all for granted. I hope that when the time comes, all of you that spent your whole life following the teachings of one certain belief, don't get left behind because of another belief that was slightly better than yours. Man will likely survive, but only as long as his environment survives. Man is his own worst enemy. When it comes to the end of mankind, will it be self-destruction?
