the origin of all species, page-8

the subject matter of "creation" is, for the most part, irrelevant to human life

i think it is quite self-evident the basic purpose of human life the pursuit of happiness (mental well-being) & the overcoming of suffering

in finding happiness & overcoming pain, human activity is generally about:

1. acquiring food, shelter, clothing, medicine

2. acquiring pleasure, which can be done in many forms, from sexual, sensual, material, fame, love, giving, charity , meditation, faith, wisdom, etc

theories about creation is another form of seeking happiness & pursuing pain, that is all

for some, theory X brings happiness, because they believe the Creator will do some personal favours for them

for others, theory X brings unhappiness, because it is a painful insult to their intelligence

for some, theory X brings happiness, because they make money from it

for others, theory Y brings happiness, because they make money from it

the wise saying trying to work out the origin of creation will lead to vexation & insanity

that the Big Bang created the universe sounds non-sensical

that a Creator Will created the universe also sounds non-sensical

however, we can discover how suffering is created and how suffering can end

if the mind is at peace, then what matters?

is not peace better than fighting Holy Wars?
