Richard Dawkins The God Delusions
INTRODUCTION Humans are the most precious creations of God. It is seen on how people differ from other contrivance of the creator. Mortals are mold to be the most ingenious life forms. Also they do acquire skill and talents that they enhance from time to time. Honestly speaking, through the abilities that a person obtains it become the key for developing and improving our society. In fact through the use of their mental capability it results for big changes in our global community. But despite of being proficient there is one thing that they use to forget. And that is failing to recall the source of their adroitness which is God. Having nimble and facile characteristics it turns them into perfidy human beings. They stopped

and tried to neglect about the existence of God. They start to rely on their own competence. They changed their perspective and belief that they can do and create things using their own cleverness. And a man having this mind set is the reasons why our global village turned into an unethical world. A godless society only proves that there are still tons of people who do not believe in the presence of God. And this simple research is aimed to prove that God do exist. And let everybody know and understand that even the most brilliant soul must have and believe in the word faith.
GODLESS SOCIETY: WHO IS GOD? Today humans are living in a world where there is no time to think about God. They don’t have any purpose, no goal in life. Their society was shifted to focus to career, money and personal gain. Money and technology have replaced divine intervention. Their culture, norms and values start to vanish. In short people do change as our society evolves. And because of those changes it affects the point of view of the humanity. At this moment a tons of proletariat are associating together having the same objectives and belief. Belief that proves that science is more pragmatic than the words beneath the Holy Bible. This is the group of people who don’t believe in the existence of deity. These people are called atheist. The truth is some of our well known scientists are consider as an atheist. Good example is Albert Einstein. “The word God for me is nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this. These subtilized interpretations are highly manifold according to their nature and have almost nothing to do with the original text. For me the Jewish religion like all other religions is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions. And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people. As far as my experience goes, they are also no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything 'chosen ' about them.” (Albert Einstein “God Letter”) The letter above only proves that even the most brilliant and gifted person above the earth doesn’t believe in God. It is state that he still looking for specific evidence that can change his perspective about God. And having these principles, it triggers a lot of people to shift on their belief and persuasions. People are starving to find those attestations to substantiate their own opinion. With this backdrop mankind are asking questions about the fact or fiction about the existence of God. It is undoubtedly very true that God cannot be seen by any human being and also some people use to believe in the adage to see is to believe.
Another aspect that influences man’s sentiment is the knowledge about the modern technology. Modern technology has made life more complicated; it made people be dependent on it. With the use of technology life become easier than before. Being abreast in using technology it caused people to become more distant and greedy. Their curiosity and imagination are brought to reality. “The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty, and all forms of human life.” (John F. Kennedy) Through technology people learn how to create and induce inventions which can be useful or sometimes destructive. Mankind has the capability to obtain talents and dexterity that other creations couldn’t possess. And it made people to be unique and rare. But because of too much confidence and trust on their self they forget to recall the source of their mental and physical ability, God. God has an identity. Identity that mankind cannot see. Human’s desire affects their persona. Their curiosity changes their personality. But still there’s a lot of question that even the smartest person cannot solve. Question which doesn’t need a specific evidence to be answered but having faith is enough. God can do what people can’t do. God performed miracles. He healed people, blind, crippled, deaf and even raised a couple of people from the dead. God has a power over objects. God also performed miracles over nature. Walking on the top of a lake and commanding a raging storm to stop. Can a normal people do that? Can they explain how nature itself took birth? Who gave birth to nature? These are just example of questions that even right now there is no answer presented. If this is the crux of the problem it is proved that the existence or non existence of God is purely a matter of faith. There is no denial to the fact that nature is made by someone whom mankind has not found till today.
“God almost certainly does not exist.” (Richard Dawkins “The God Delusions”) It is a statement that made by probably the most renowned atheist that still living today.
Clinton Richard Dawkins the author of the book The God Delusions. This book aims to give wisdom to the reader that there are a scientific explanation about the unfeasible things that happened around the world. On pages 157 and 158 of the God Delusion, Richard Dawkins encapsulates the central argument of his books. Another assertions that can be made regarding to the subsistence of God is morals. There are two types of morals, objective and subjective. People define morals as an objective if a man’s suddenly die and the morals that they acquire would still exist. Now a subjective morals are consider subjective if humans believe that whatever they achieve whether it’s accurate or inaccurate they would still believe that it’s the right thing to do. But if morals are subjective then it is true that God does not exist. Humans create morals from their own personal experiences. Morality is a subjective way of thinking that needs decent objectives. Morals change over time, which proves that it is a subjective thought and not something that stays the same as time passed by. It is proved that morals are not made by God, but simply lying to mankind itself. The existence of God is something that has puzzled millions of people around the world. There are lots of arguments supporting the existence of God, but as many denying facts that think that God doesn’t exist. Agnosticism is something that many people go by because it allows their mind to explore and assist them in deciding whether or not a deity exists. Humans need to find answers within their self because only they can determine what truth and reality is. Not all questions may be answered, but it will allow mankind to form a true and concise belief. People cannot depend on someone or something else to satisfy their questions. Man only lived once and must
search for the knowledge they desire.
God showed to be gentle, loving, aware of mankind’s centeredness and shortcomings, yet he deeply wanting a relationship with man. God views humanity worthy of his punishment but his love for man’s ruled and God came up with a different plan. God himself took on the form of man and accepted the punishment for the humans. God proves a divine heart of love in order to suffice humans need. God does not forcing people to believe in him though he could. Instead, he has provided sufficient proof of his existence for man willingly respond on him but still its mankind’s decision to circumvent about God’s purpose for their life.
CONCLUSION In time nowadays there is lot of people who were facing a big challenge in their life. Problems that human believed that there is no available solution. But always think like this, it is not consider problems if it doesn’t have a solutions. And sometimes the solutions that man look for is only coming from one source, God. Many people are used to forget that one vital thing. God is the only source of human’s desires. But because of human’s curiosity and cleverness they use to neglect God’s presence. They start to remove God’s responsibilities and obligations for their life. And because of that matter human’s become more ravenous and selfish. God created and shape man as the same image of God. Man should consider it as the most beautiful endowment in his life. Humans are just creation of God. God is the source of everything. And God can take that as easy as a blink of an eye. Human must not test and question God capability. In this moment several people use to think like that. They think that they had the ability that God possess. It is a wrong mindset that an individual plant on their mind. People are not the same as God we don’t had the power and expertise that God acquire. People need to accept the fact that whatever they do they cannot be as good as God. They have to face the reality that even they don’t see and touch, God still exist. And even they don’t admit that on their self they feel the presence of our Lord. And that is the state of mind that every human should obtain.
