Institutionalized Religion

 

I have always had a problem with institutionalized religion, even though I believe that there is a CREATOR...

My first concern was over the fact that in every single church that I attended or visited in the USA, Jesus the Christ was portrayed as a CAUCASIAN MALE and we all know that this simply cannot be true.

Jesus was a JEW by birth and people who lived in that area at the time and still are, resemble a MEDITERRANEAN type of male which is not even similar to a Caucasian male.

A Mediterranean male is typically described as having dark hair, dark eyes, olive skin, a medium to short stature, a slender build, a long face with a prominent nose, and a relatively high level of body hair; with variations depending on the specific region within the Mediterranean basin.

Once you realize that your religious leaders have either LIED or MISLEAD you, one begins to wonder what some of the other lies around which religious truths might have been based.

Aside from the inconsistencies of institutionalized religion, I have a very strong belief in a CREATOR...   and I base this not on what the BIBLE may or may not have said about GOD, but on my belief in EXTRATERRESTRIALS.

I have read several articles from well-known experts in the religious, biological, and evolutionary fields, all of whom have stated that MANKIND's evolution was FASTER than it should have been - almost to the point that it is believed to have been expedited.

In short...  we should not have evolved as quick as we did.

So, how can that be explained?

If we look at it from God's perspective, He created us once and, in his image, and likeness, but there is no indication in the Bible that he meddled with our evolution after that initial creation.

If we look at it from an extraterrestrial perspective, it is entirely PLAUSIBLE that extraterrestrials could have REVIZITED earth and altered our DNA.

Of course, there is no proof of either God or extraterrestrial interference other than an incorrect timetable of our evolutionary process.  However, religion would have you believe that there are no signs of evolution in our history.  

Again, science corrects that religious belief because there is scientific evidence that mankind is different in the twenty-first century than mankind was in the first century and before.

Fossils and DNA evidence has mankind 300,000 years old.

The BIBLE has provided us with a timeline that indicates mankind is only 6,000 years old.

Not trying to change your views, but who do you tend to believe...  science or the Bible?
