Thoughts on Creation

As it is my first post, I thought why not start with the beginning. Here are some imaginative thoughts on creation and life.

Humanity as a race has always had the tendency to believe it is somehow special in the greater sense of things. We tend to believe this as a species, and as individuals. Our knowledge of technology has grown beyond our ability to perceive. Some of us are still naive enough to think we have been created by an invisible man in the sky who has the best of intentions for us and will protect us.
This of course comes from the people that govern our many religious bodies. In return for salvation, they ask undeniable faith and loyalty with 'peace of mind and promise of salvation' as a reward. Many people believe God created Life, the Universe and Everything. And it gives them solace to think that He is out there watching down on us. I will speak of the true purpose in life for faith in a higher power in more detail in the future.
We were created, not by accident, as some say, but by inevitability. Had the events of the past not happened, replaced by conditions hostile to the development of man kind, we would not be here. Which is to state that the events of the past and present, dictate the future.
In my perspective, it saddens me that as a modern industrial/technological state(world), we are still blinded by what is out there, and we remain poisoned by ideas of two or more thousand years ago.

You might say we are in the process of waking up from a long dream filled sleep. Some sooner than others.
