Surely again, you do not understand the message of this article. ‘Hope one day you could.

I truthfully hope you do not follow the normal Christian path asking selfish things off of your God. Such as please give me a good job please let me be successful etc, etc.

As you know I am an athiest that writes about religion… this is something I wrote in one of my books. I think it relates well to your article as it addresses selfishness..

Looking through Gods eye’s
One only needs to know the character of the Christian, Jewish and Muslim God to be able to look through the eyes of God. Ever caring all knowing and very wise! The Christian faith makes it to easy to be forgiven, the Jewish and Muslim faith also allow for Gods forgiveness but on a more, stricter base.

The Laundry
Gods house of prayer is being treated like a Laundry, dirty linen in clean linen out!

Examples:

Man walks into house of prayer: he prays to God “Please God forgive me” God is listening, Man states “I have committed adultery, please forgive me for my sin” God thinks, “This man is asking forgiveness for cheating on his wife? This is the sixth time!” God says in annoyance “All these people are my children including this mans wife I deeply regard her feelings on this issue.” “Before he can be forgiven by me, he has to be forgiven by his wife!” Man walks away from his house of prayer where he thought he lightened his load, ready to sin again.

High Ranking government official walks into house of prayer: he prays to God “Please God forgive me” God is listening, “I stole money from the government purse, please forgive me for I am weak, I needed the money to send my children to school” God states to him self “This man keeps on asking forgiveness for many similar things, he has too many people to atone too, its an helpless situation, I just cant forgive this, he has hurt too many of my children” The official walks away from his house of prayer where he thought he lightened his load, ready to sin many times again.

A woman walks into house of prayer: she prays to God “Please God, I would like a rich husband to support me and buy jewellery and all the luxury items that I’ve always dreamed of”. God simply doesn’t listen to selfish people! But the Devil Does! The woman walks away from his house of prayer to misguidedly wait for God to grant her wish.

Once you learn to look through the eyes of God it becomes very simple to work out your Gods answers to prayers. The problem is have the religions opened a gate to hell in their own temples, church’s, mosque’s, synagogue or prayer mats?

The Religious leaders should start teaching the faithful how to ask forgiveness and how to pray unselfishly, this could be the solution to fighting corruption, crime and alleviate poverty. They could also have a solution to create peace and harmony through out the world.

The Catholic Church is one of the biggest offenders the have created the biggest chain of Laundry’s in the World, plus the Vatican laws all need to be reviewed especially those that hamper population control and the spreading of AID’s. The Pope needs to do his job as the spokesman of god; he simply needs to be brave and wise enough to look through the eyes of God. He needs to close the gates of hell within the Catholic Church, holy water, prayer alone is not answer to a very big problem concerning the welfare and souls of his flock.
