Vow...at least for now :)

This just hit me last week while discussing a religious issue with a friend.
I was on the firm believe that all religious figures are nothing but normal human beings and that they sometimes make as stupid mistakes as anyone of us would, so I was trying to convey that message to my friend by unleashing an issue which he firmly believes in.

But it has been my lifestyle in general, I wanted to unleash and tell everyone what is wrong with their beliefs, as this was my mission :|, take for example; The high importance of Christ being crucified doesn't give you any added benefit and may not have happened all together, the wrong concept they have about Heaven and Hell, Mohammad marriage to 13 wives although in Koran the book he preaches the maximum was 4 under specific scenarios, the fact that their prayer should be done as meditation not as duty, Buddha's way of stressing that the only thing that matters is to be mindful which leaves little for imagination playfulness and the enjoyment of just sometimes be silly, the followers emphasis on "no God" and still they pray to Buddha's figure as he is a Super Duper Being..The Jews with them being the "Chosen ones" and much more about so many other beliefs that I looked at such as Osho, Sahaja Yoga, and other types of Yoga.

So my interest was to go to the Muslims and tell them they are wasting their times, go to the Buddhist and tell them they are living an artificial live style and so on...just take a look at my review of Life Of Buddha on my other blog and see what I mean http://maswad.blogspot.com/2007/02/life-of-buddha.html

Then I found that I am really not changing anyone's mind and people are not interested at all in listening to anything out of the box in terms of their beliefs.
I also realized that I am wasting so much energy on focusing on this exposing these wrong beliefs and the negative part associated with them...

This concept goes not only to religion studies but to everything in live.
I realized that we as society concentrate on negative things in life. Look at the news..Even for environmentalists and other groups, the concentration has been on fighting the negative side more than stressing on the positive side.

So my vow on this blog, on my other blog and perhaps in life in general is not to expose anyone anymore, but instead focus on the positive side of everything I study, read or participate in. I will make an attempt to see only the positive, the beauty, the humorous perhaps , joyful and ecstasy side of things. No more arguments, no more persuasions... This will perhaps will be a life time mission by itself :)
