what i shall or have to believe ?


when i was borne, it was already fixed to what religious group i belongs !
the decision was given from my parents and so i had to follow their wishes.
i'm happy and lucky that my parents was very open minded and don't forced me to much, my pa was an Catholic and my mom protestant and they show us two boys that there is no border and harmony if there is love, trust and unity to fight for each other.
but soon i have feel the differences true the society and my schoolmates when i come in school.
the different religious groups had there own religion lesson and there the pastors or religious teacher has learned us that we have only to follow and believe in our church.
i got in troubles after i had accompany my mom sometimes in her church and so it starts in me the questions about what i shall or have to believe !
i speak and discuss it with my parents and friends..
i read the bibel...
i searched in literature...
search in the historical story's...
what i found was horrible...
at all the religious groups was a way full of blood...
there was killings, intrigues, abusing, lies...
so i decide to go out on my religion group and quit when i was 13.
years later when i read the book of hermann hesse : siddhartha this story has fascinated me and so i had searched more about buddhism
true my travels later to asia i come to the point where i find my way in my believing and he was founded in buddhism, because this religion is based more on a philosophical way than in a way of sin a mistakes, which you be always punished by the rules of the other religious groups...
why was mostly all religious groups split off ?
why the leaders of the groups always press there members what they have to believe ?
why they mostly have in the end when they can't give you an answer of your questions only the phrase it's god's will and we have to believe and follow...
who has written all the religious books ?
was it not we human beings?
why there is for example in the catholic church always a controversy discuss about the origin bible...
there are more than one version, so i ask what is the origin ?
had not every one of the publisher or writer his own version about his own background ?
why are woman's discriminated by catholic and muslims, can't have a pastor or higher position ?
why fanatic groups abuse kids and members for a holly war and suicide bombings
why
why
why
a never ending story ?
should we not all start to have respect and be tolerant to others ?
if we all could learn to be more tolerant and open minded...
if we can stand that we are not perfect and make mistakes...
if we can be open for all different groups and accept and love them even they have other believe or roots, over all nation in this world...
that would be the time there is a changing..
a time of peace and harmony...
a time we also could make this wonderful planet to a real HOME
