Is Religion A Human Creation?
Religion was created by whom? By a few Prophets?(124,000 according to a weak tradition in a population of Billions) and How did religion had such a grasp on So many People. Did they lack the common sense and intellect to grasp that religion is a force for control and not truth? How do Billions of people believe in religion today in the Presence of Scientific Progress? Are they brainwashed too? Are We Naturally inclined or biologically evolved to believe in a Creator? Some questions to Ponder over…
Traditional Islam as professed by Muslims today is indeed man made. Following beliefs have no basis in the Quran itself. Examples: 1) The Concept of Khalifate/Caliphate, preached by Sunni Muslim Scholars. 2) The Concept of Imamate, preached by Shia Muslim Scholars. 3) The Concept of Tazkiya e Nafs/Purification of Self, preached by Sufi Muslim Scholars. 4) Blind Following of Tradition preached by both Sunni & Shia Muslim Scholars. Using independent thinking through Intellect/common sense is tantamount to following the ways of Devil/Satan/Iblees/Shytaan in these ideologies. These Beliefs and many others have caused doubt on the reliability of Quran as a divine text. I only mentioned these few since these are professed as the “Only True Purpose” of Islam without whom one would leave the fold of Islam essentially becoming a Murtad/Apostate.
