Musings Of A Curious Guy by osayi90: 4:10pm On Mar 26, 2021
My writing skill is exponentially decaying faster than I can imagine. Therefore, I have decided to start writing regularly in order to be more active

While it is true that I have a science background, I also do have an interest in so many areas of life from the arts, maths, astronomy, sports, meditation, politics etc. I am not sure if this is the correct section to ponder about so many things. I implore you all to join me as I explore so many interesting topics. If you have any topic of interest you want me to talk about please let me know as I will be happy to provide some insight, at least to the degree to which I am familiar with the topic.

Let's talk about religion first. I'm presently agnostic. I came from a Christian home (and very likely if my parents find out that I am agnostic, I will be disowned). However, the reason I am agnostic is because of so many questions religion cannot answer. It also seems that the religion one practices most times depends on where (the country) he/she comes from. If my parents were from Israel, I would have been practising Judaism, if they were from Pakistan, I would likely have been a Muslim, if they were from Indian, I will likely be practising Hinduism, If I was even born in Nigeria a thousand years ago, I would have been worshipping the great JuJu. I think the religion we practise today can be strongly linked to the spatial location in which we were born and raised. This means that there is a very good chance that the religion in which you practice today may very well be different if you were from a different region. This to me weakens the argument for religion. One way of detecting a problem with a solution is if there are other many radically different solutions. Now it should be noted that I do believe religion has done some good things in society like making an otherwise naturally evil person do good things. However, religion has also made good people do bad things. Let me stop here for now. smiley
