some random thoughts on "GOD" ...

You might wonder what will I talk about GOD. It is the jabber of a recluse, a secluded depressed and a "failed in life" kind of a person. All the young brawny brains like me are thinking why am I even talking (or in fact writing) gibberish. But, if seen from a different angle, you know of what I am talking and can comprehend the jabber. It makes such a difference of thought when we change perceptions abruptly and be more aware of our own mistakes and accept them.

It is the same way when we have to hit on a beautiful gal and we counter all her "NO's" into a "YES" in an intelligent and subtle way. Consider the following statements, "Mumbai belongs to me" and "I belong to Mumbai" . This is a perfect example of subtle, cautious and calibrated statement with abrupt change of perceptions. It makes such a difference when I say "I belong to Mumbai" and not the other way round.

Can we think the same way about GOD and its creation? We say that GOD defies logic but instead an abrupt change in perception will make you think that GOD is actually a part of logic to save the sanity in this world. We always say that GOD created the universe and eventually humans. Instead we can say that we humans created GOD. And it seems to be logical. GOD came into existence with the humans. The humans created logic and also saw logic being defied by nature. So as to preserve the sanity of logic humans coined the term "GOD". Anything that defies logic is a creation of GOD. Call it GOD or X or Y or anything else but this variable (X or Y or GOD) perfectly fits in to save logic.

I am not an atheist. I believe in the ultimate power and I call it the variable "X" in an unsolved polynomial equation of life rather than calling it GOD. After all we are humans and we have to follow a nomenclature to be called "sane", but again an abrupt change of perceptions brings me to the realization that being sane actually means, understanding the fact that the nomenclature and the myths about GOD are just abstractions and are virtual functions provided by the framework of life which we have to implement so as to live our lives happily. The implementation of these interfaces changes according to the milieu in which we live. Designing the virtual interface cognates with the logical term called "Planning" and the unique implementation of such an interface can be called the "Pursuit of Happyness" :)

Every individual has some properties bequeathed from its parent classes. The individual has to provide interfaces for its parents, spouse/husband and children.
The Law : The number of interfaces an individual has to provide is equivalent to the number of interfaces he has to implement.
It is the responsibility of the individual to implement the virtual function provided by its parents, partner and children so as to lead a happy life together. And the chain continues.

So ultimately going back to where I started, GOD is nothing but the object oriented concept we use and religion is the object oriented language we use. The language can be as crude object oriented as "C" and as fine as "Java".
