Christianity is Not Logical



My motive of writing this blog is not to condemn Christianity as a religion or to downsize the relevance of Christianity, and not even to hurt the feelings of any part of population of any of the geographical region. My objective is pure where I believe that every human being is born on this earth and there search of "all mighty" the most powerful power is still on. we stop our thinking on the subject by our assuming a barrier in which we bond ourselves to certain belief system and give no room to think outside it. Even here I do not feel like comparing any two or more religions as there are possibility of errors in every religious thought processes. 
To clarify my thought about Christianity I believe that it is one of the peaceful religion which is responsible to teach humanity to a very large population on earth. I respect Christianity as wherever it exists it brings peace and harmony among human population and also preaches helpful behaviour not only for Christians but for human as a whole.
By claiming that there can be errors in many religions I do not want to claim that I have an in-depth understanding of all religions that I can find out errors in all of them. We have to understand that all the religions of this world have evolved as human being found themselves alone on earth and had no clue of who have brought them to life, in this scenario it is obvious for us to believe that some super power exists that has brought us to life and controls all the systems necessary for us to survive. In fact this search of all mighty is continued since our first step on earth. Many scholars have written there opinion about their understanding about God which is slowly accepted by people and got attached to the belief system of certain part of population which is called as Religion.  Before continuing further I make it very clear that I am firm believer of God and respect all mighty in all its forms.
Talking further about Christianity let us start from the basic understanding of Christianity and there openiin about human evolution. Major part comes from  Genesis 2:4-3:24 where humans have evolved from one parents that is Adam and Eve who are our great-great grand father and mother. God made them out of mud and blue life in them and made Eave out of one bone of Adam and they did sin by eating some fruit of knowledge and understood everything and god cursed them.  Actually there is no harm in believing the same as if we believe that ultimately it brings a conclusion that all human population existent on earth is somehow related to each other and we should involve in griefs and sorrows as well as happiness of every human from any part of the globe. This clarifies the pure objective of the writer of bible which signifies that we all humans are one family. As explained in Hinduism in Mahopanishad VI.71-73 अयं बन्धुरयं नेति गणना लघुचेतसाम् | उदारचरितानां तु वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम् || which means "this one is a relative; this other one is a stranger" is for the mean-minded. For those who're known as magnanimous, the entire world constitutes but a family. And similar thought process in other religious books.
It is good to believe everything which brings human race together but I do not favour beliving something illogical to teach something good. Let’s understand this by an example when we try to teach a child to be away from something we explain the danger but when sometimes child does not follow our instructions some of the parents say there is a daemon there and child is away due to fear. Where parents understand very clearly that there is no demon there and demon is brought into picture just to fulfil the objective of keeping away.
Similarly it is true that we humans are one family but to induce this thinking pattern the story of Adam and Eve seems little illogical. With in-depth research and finding of the remains of pre historic men we have found that human have not evolved in a day or three but it is a slow process of evolution that took place to bring our current human population into existence. There are clearly visible proofs which signifies that evolution process and now there is no doubt in the same. So we can say that the story of Adam and Eve is not true but the objective behind this story is pure. But I personally believe that there is no need to attach a false story to make us believe in certain thought process.
Even there is some error about explain the eruption of vegetation on earth
(Genesis 1:11-12)"Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with seed in them, on the earth"; and it was so. And the earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with seed in them, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.
The interesting part of the account is that God did not create the plants in the manner we might assume He did. Instead of creating a world filled with full-grown plants, God actually created seeds and planted those. We understand this from the word "sprout”  which refers to God allowing the earth to produce plants through germination (sprouting). The Hebrew word “dasha” tells us that God used processes identical to what we see on the earth today. Plants spouted, grew to maturity, and produced seeds. Several kinds of plants are described. The Hebrew word “deshe” refers primarily to grasses; the word “eseb” refers primarily to herbs and the words “periets” refer to fruit trees. Some Christians claim that God could have sped up the process so that it all this sprouting and growing happened within a period of 24-hours. However, the text clearly states that the land produced the vegetation and trees. There is no explanation about  what God could have done to speed up the process have no biblical support and directly contradict what the text actually says. Since fruit trees take several years to mature and produce fruit, the third day from the date of seeding the fruit.
Even the theory of universe is bit difficult to understand in current scientific research  and it is very easy to understand that it has no relation to reality some of them are
·         The earth is fixed and immovable and lies at the center of all things. The sun moves about the earth, not the other way around. Use of the phrase "solar system" should therefore be avoided in favor of the more accurate "geosystem." Although there is no harm in believing that we humans are the centre of universe but again quite far from reality
·         The earth is flat and finite. Its boundary may be circular, if we have to believe this we will have to throw all books of geography in garbage close our eyes and follow.
·         The sky is the roof over the earth -- a solid impervious barrier that protects both believers and non-believers from the waters beyond. Is it possible to accept this at least I cannot accept  such a thing which comes out of bible.
    The stars on the sky are much smaller than the earth. Oh no please throw all your telescopes satellites and then we can think of believing this.
Here believe me I am not trying to make mockery of such a strong Religion but I am myself surprised how such successful religion which has bound huge population of earth can have such errors.
Actually by going through the preaching’s of Christianity I strongly believe now that this religion was created with a very positive motive to bring peace and harmony among human population and the writer had very minimal knowledge and understanding and he tried to meet his objective with whatever understanding and knowledge he had at that point in time.
