I asked My Parents on the Dead in Iraq ..
Women, Children, Old and Young ..
I asked Them On The Retribution Of Justice ..
Whether the Crime on the "Weak" Goes "Unpunished" ..
I asked them Whether Indeed There was "Justice" on this Earth ..
I asked them whether a "Just" God would allow such "Atrocities" ..
They answered me "Son, Of Course there is Justice on This Earth" ..
"The Justice May Not Be The Way We Want It" ..
"But There is Justice" ..
How can over a million Iraqis be "Killed" and No Justice ..
How Can Children Be Made "Fatherless" and the Foundation of the World Not Cry ..
How Can Daughters Be Made "Motherless" and The Soul Of Creation Not Shout in "Agony" ..
How Can A Whole Society Be "Dismantled", and The God of Creation Not Wince an Eye ..
Let Me Say This:
If There is No Justice, There is No God ..
If There is No "Comfort" for the Grieving, There is No "Salvation" ..
If There is No "Divine" Retribution, There is No Order ..
And Finally,
If There is No Manifestation of "God's Spirit", There is No Point in Life ..
Remember,
A Flea isn't Killed without The Whole Universe Knowing about it ..
Let alone an Innocent Woman, An elderly, or a Child ..

Re: life without god is meaningless, why?
by jamshid on Tue Nov 27, 2007 07:40 PM PSTI live without god and my life is still with meaning. I made my life purposeful by choosing "nikoo" over "zeshti" and trying to be "mofid" for whoever may cross my path. A purpose for existence gives meaning to one's life, even when god is abscent.

Our "Good" Deeds are Like "Dirty" Rags ..
It's The "Majesty" Of God That Makes Life "Worth" Living ..
Remember,
"Without" God ..
We "Humans" Are No "Better" Than "Animals" ..
Life "Without" God ..
Is "Meaningless" ..
It's The "Love" of God That "Allow"s Us Humans ..
To "Love" One Another ..
Try To "Understand" God ..
Through Your "Spirit" ..
Not "Your" Head ..
Read "Mollana" ..
Read "Sa'adi" ..
Read "Hafez" ..
As You Do That ..
Gradually,
The "Spirit" Of God ..
Will "Manifest" Itself To "You" ..
Re: Shaer
by jamshid on Tue Nov 27, 2007 05:10 PM PSTAgain, here is the solution to your conflict: There is no god, and if there is one it is not necessarily the god of semitic religions. It could be like the forces of nature, like gravity, oblivious to the cause of good and evil. Good and evil to him may just be different shades of colors and nothing more. And being oblivious to good and evil does not take away from his greatness, but it does lessen our expectations and disapointments.
Live as though there is no god and still be "nikoo". You don't need god to be "nikoo".
