They have told us we are the center of the universe. The chosen species. The ultimate creation of God or Nature.[i]
We do not relate ourselves with other creatures. We are not just superior, we are different and beyond any comparison. The evolution theory does not apply to us.
We have been trying to develop any possible argumentation to prove that Darwin was wrong. It is not possible to believe we have come from a random biological mutation in nature. Randomness is inconceivable when talking about the most perfect creature: the Human Being. Science must be mistaken.
We are certain there is afterlife. That is out of question. The question is: how afterlife is. We are so perfectly great that we cannot end just like that. We cannot finish when we die. Our greatness will reach eternity. We cannot accept that our work in this world will not be appreciated. Then what is the purpose of trying? We must be rewarded at afterlife what we couldn't have here, on the earth, alive.
We are not insects! We are not animals. There is something that differentiates us. That is the existence of Soul. We, humans comprise a combination of material and spirit.
But, it seems it is too hard to accept that this true amalgamation of both is also indistinguishable. Meaning the mental, intangible nature of human cannot exist without the physical one.
Are we learned to do so. I would say yes, but I don’t blame religion(s). There is something else that lies underneath religion. People are too small to confront reality and because of that we have invented religious theories to support and excuse our self-centrism.
I could understand that when we could not explain the ambient world. At those times the sun and thunder were Gods and the eclipse was a bad sign for the things to come. But today, we have something which then didn’t exist. The science. And science –in contrast to mysticism- says that Nature functions according to natural laws. Laws that can be proven right.
The scientific method cannot tell, or doesn’t care, if what you believe is true of false. Whatever you believe is true (for you). But it goes beyond the belief; to the existence. And although we ignore it consciously, science does have the answers for some of our questions.
[i] If we believe in that for ourselves individually, we would be egoists, arrogant, crazy. Now that we believe in exactly the same collectively for the whole humanity, we are enlightened.
