Kingdom of Heaven

After watching the grand movie before arrival of highly anticipated Star Wars, I'm glad to announce that Orlando Bloom really is beautiful though that is beside the point. Religion is a highly flammable topic to tread on despite this being an avenue for my mind's eye. So as a disclaimer here, I have to emphasize that my views are mine alone, I have no wish to rub anyone off the wrong way and the reason why I do not include all religions here is not coz I'm biased against certain of them but coz it's late and I'm really tired so I chose the most evident. For many moments in my life, I often wonder why God would lead Moses to Israel of all places in the world? He could have always turned him left - or is that right? - toward Europe instead of surrounding the Jews with Muslims then letting his son be born right smack in the middle of Muslim surrounded Jews then letting the community get split into smaller bits again and later on started the Crusades and of coz the setting for the movie. As a matter of fact, had I been a Jew living in the years of Christ, I too would have condemned him for reasons obvious. Turning of water to wine, depending on matter of perspective could be viewed as either miracle or blasphemy. For the people who have prayed to Buddha as a God, it does not seemed right either - and to remind the many people who have forgotten, he is an Indian prince, not a Chinese. Too me, Buddhism is more a way of life than a religion, and he is a role model for the path to enlightenment rather than a God to which we pray our wishes to. In fact, I'm one of those few who viewed of him as heartless rather than a kind spirited soul. Afterall, he did leave his family, his wife - child? I can't remember and it's too late to check - to sit beneath a tree. There is another thing I do not understand of priests, monks and nuns. Why do they have to stay chaste? If Gods had wanted us all to be pure of all evil, chaste and kind, we would have all died out within a single generation. And that is their wish? I finally understood why I'm a free thinker - which wasn't exactly by choice coz I simply could not find the right path to follow - I have too much logic. I think too much into everything. Too much analysis. Now wonder I'm a programmer. Logic is my faith and in sense, I place my trust.
