I’ve just read Paul Arden’s 3rd book titled “God Explain in a Taxi Ride”. And I think this book is just like his first and second book, it’s so inspirational for me personally. In this book he explain about GOD, religion and many thing about GOD that makes me feel strong.. U know that I am an agnostic, I believe in GOD but I’m not involve in any religion.. So he said to believe in GOD won’t make me a religious person, but it’ll make me a spiritual person (see the different)..
“A young child asked his father if he could prove there is a God.
‘I can’t prove it,’ he said.
‘It’s like the wind. You can feel it, but you can’t see it.’”
It is very stupid I think to think that we’re all used to be monkey, or those beautiful scenery was happened because of an accidents.. it’s so stupid (no judgment)..
Not just that, he also wrote something that all of my religious friends keep bugging me about... it’s the after life.. :
“People scare of the dark because they don’t know what’s there.
As soon as they put the light on, they can see and feel safe.
We are all scared of dying, because we are afraid of the unknown.
To ease our fear of the dark, we invent explanations for the afterlife such as heaven and hell and reincarnation.
Like the light we switch on to feel safe.”
Then in the next page he wrote:
“The sun was made by God.
Religion is a light bulb, created by man to help him to see in the dark.”
There’re still many interesting things he wrote such as this one..
“Wars are started by ambitious men and women whose sense of humor plays no part in the serious business of running a country.
What if, instead of sending professional statesmen, with their self-importance and deadly seriousness, to an international war summit, we were to send some of our top humorists? Sacha Baron Cohen and Larry David, for instance.
Can you imagine this gathering of diplomats contriving to start a war?
They wouldn’t be able to, no matter how hard they tried. Their sense of humor forbids it.
When people declare war on others, they believe themselves to be just.
They believe that God is on their side.
God knows, they are insane.”
Hahah.. Interesting rite?! I used to be a huge fan of Paul Arden but now I love him even more..
