Seeking For The Truth

Sometimes do you asked yourself the question why? Do you even asked somebody what is the reason of all the happenings here in the world? Where all life forms in earth came from? Or the big question is, how the universe being created? Does it undergoes some mutation or evolution in an empty space, or there is a God who created all these things as He created our first ancestors, Adam and Eve?

In old times, old caveman or we known as the people in the Paleolitic Period by history written by archeolgists, prove that they had simple living on that period. They only look for food, cook it, and then eat it. They sleep and rest to regain their energy needed for hunting animals to serve as their food. And also, they reproduce their own kind to save their specie. These are the basic activities and needs of human beings except for clothing and shelter. I tell these things because, people in ancient people in prehistoric times do not mind complicated things such as, ruling a small society, a nation, or ruling the whole world. They only think how will they survive. But, these things changed when people start to build system of societies that will secure their needs, this was called the community.

In the community, people try to secure their needs, properties, and other materialistic and non-materialistic things they owned. To make their community to become successful they hired or their leader. They make their own territories. They created their own culture that will symbolizes themselves and as their identification in their tribe and to know where tribe do they belong. As their community reaches the peak of success due to their rich culture, their civilization was born. There are many civilizations formed in ancient times, they fight against other civilizations in many reasons. They fight due to needs of larger territories, needs of slaves, needs in natural resources, or because of their different religion or philosophies. Well, I have been mention the word religion, so let us talk about religion.

Even they were in small tribe, people had to start their beliefs and religion. They made this to have explanation on what is the reason of many phenomenon and deluge. They think that their leader had a right divine to have conversation to their gods, so they follow whatever their will say, even it was a big sacrifice.

It might be the religion was one of the key to success of many great civilization, but it also be the reason in destruction of many lives. It might be only coincident that when they sacrifice, the deluge stops. If there is true God, and there are many different testaments about Him, why does the religion didn't tell about the extinct animals, plants, and other organisms.

On the other hand, in scientific explanation, why do scientists thought that all organisms follow the path of evolution? Where do these organisms evolved from? Even they collect many data, they cannot just say that an organism just evolved from singled-cell microorganism. Because they can't just ignore where this cell come from. There will be the time that new explanations will be discover, but for the meantime, what will you choose, the religion, or the science?
