A  Theme on Faith, some may say those of an age may become religious as they become older and as they are nearing their final years. This can be said, to be true, in some cases; some may gain faith as an insurance policy, some may have perhaps grown in wisdom over the years, some may instinctively know there is something much more to come after we leave this planet,  in the form of spiritually.

We may ask, think and observe the world, we see a creation that is miraculously designed far beyond our ignorance and of human science as we see it today.

Throughout our existence on Earth, we grow through small experiences some good and some bad, hopefully, we can learn from these experiences and acknowledge them, those that don't, are to repeat their mistakes, time and time again until they become aware of where they may be going wrong. Humans are emotional and we react accordingly, we have the ability to forgive those that have hurt us and we learn to move on or we bear grudges and live or promote a miserable life....

Sometimes we may ask what is the meaning of our lives, what is it's purpose! Are we are all individual's living within a collective? In other words coopering with each other towards having a peaceful existence, ok, perhaps some more than others...

Could we subconsciously be in preparation for another life? Otherwise it seems to be a waste of an a apprenticeship don't you think?

Perhaps all this was planned before our birth into this world, call it a holiday from the spiritual world to a reality or 3D existence, playing out a role to further enlighten us, our spiritual souls - sounds familiar? (e.g. Westworld starring Yul Brynner 1973, how about Holograms or programming, or the Matrix)? All interesting concepts.

So! For many, why is it so difficult to believe in a deity? A God, A ruler of creation? A Designer of the program we are living in? Are we ALL that cynical?

We can go by evidence, archaeology and history of Earth's past and knowledge past down, we also know how corrupt humans can be, (we see it today in politics, the media, big business...) and we know it can work to their advantage when there is not a belief system pointing out morals of right from wrong. We ALL have a decision an option to choose using our own conscience and tuition. We have a free reign of choose to cooperate with others or to dominate them.

How does one decide if a member of the Human Species is good or bad and do they have faith based on a moral standpoint?

Another reason for a deity to identify the 'wheat from the chaff', has the earthly soul had a relationship with the deity from the start or has the earthly soul forgotten and their true nature has emerged, deciding on the potential outcome of their existence....?
