Defense and Attack Mode

Defense mode that is we defend our belief systems against someone who will attack what we believed in, and Attack mode in other hand, is our attitude of attacking other people’s what they believe in. Take for example, if one believes in magic, the other one who does not believed on it will attack the believers of it. Like in Christianity, believing in magic is said to be satanic and demonic, for to believe in magic as modern Christianity teaches is not believing in god at all. For believing in magic is believing in witchcraft, which of Satan or devil, as the modern Christianity teaches. And from this standpoint, it is evident that Faith divides humanity rather than uniting them.

The Effects of Believing in and not believing in

What does believing have brought into us? And similarly, what does not believing on anything have also brought into us?

We have already discuss above that believing in on anything and not having a consensus to your fellow men who have an opposite belief or contradictory belief to what you belief in will only cause dispute, strife, intense argument and even slandering act, which is sometimes becomes the major reason for war outbreaks like the Muslim-Christian Crusade Wars in the middle ages.

Even today this Muslim-Christian has not ended both parties were throwing muds to one another, that according to them both have corrupted the Abrahamic scriptures. Is this a good example to drive converts to their respective belief systems? Certainly it is not, for because of this useless wranglings, many now despises in believing in religion that causes only strifes like these two major religions of our world causes. Thus, many inquire about meditative religion such like the Buddhism or Hinduism religion.

Therefore if believing in has somewhat not good effects to us humans like we have discuss above, what does “not believing” on anything bring the non-believers?

A non-believer or one who stop believing in to anything (but this is impossible, for any being even if one is an atheist has its own set of beliefs, for if one does not have any beliefs, that one is a Dead thing) if there is one, that one is a living dead. For how can one live if one does not even believe that he or she is alive?

Anyway, a non-believer, for example on Islam or on God will lose some important ideas and insights regarding such beliefs but if a non-believer to it cares (of course, one does not care because one does not believe on the ideas of Islam or about god), that would be beneficial to one’s intelligence or spiritual journey.
