Who is God’s God?
Andre: It is a circular reference …. well for me there is no proven God. So if I can’t prove the first one I can’t even begin to theorize further. But interestingly enough I have observed too that most things in life follow a cycle including animals, plants, the planets etc. This makes me think that existence must be cyclical too. It is only human beings who see everything to have a beginning and an end; maybe we are finite-focused and not able to understand anything else ?

“May those who have eyes, see; and those who have ears, hear.” Jesus may have forgotten to include, “May those who can reason, have the courage to accept their wrongs.” Being seen and heard as ‘different’ became the reason for Jesus of Nazareth’s execution. It is a travesty of justice that malevolent criminals stroll free [...]

In recent weeks a couple of incidents told the true story of India in a manner that nothing else can. The Delhi metro bridge crashed killing some poor people one early morning a few weeks ago. When my quality control friend of Indian origin in the US saw the photographs of the accident scene he [...]

The taxi driver and I shared one thing in common: indulging in the art of listening and understanding. From Sharjah he cruised at a constant speed towards Dubai. Studying his profile from time to time, I saw he was about 54, a sparse, almost ordinary man, but there was in his voice that indefinable tone, [...]

I have been mulling over religion, religious zealotry and associated crimes as witnessed globally in these past 20 plus years. I was wondering why God chose not create religion to begin with? Why did God leave it to us? To create? To hate? Is there a grand plan of His, that is yet to unfold? [...]

Any honest scientist will tell you that the theory of evolution is only a theory, and nothing more.
