When we are emotion driven, we tend to be less logic driven. Science has shown this is the case.
Religion should be logic driven rather than emotion driven. Faith may be good but faith is often emotion driven.
Like it or not, we have to have faith to begin with in religion but as we progress, we need to be logical in what we do and believe.
We must not take things at face value. We must have doubts and we must question.
The good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 says that doubt is good as doubt arises because the person wants to know more and if he does know more, he may end up better spiritually.
He may understand the teachings of a saint even better than those more seasoned than him.
Do not believe just because someone at the pulpit says so in the name of God and saints.
Do not let others think for us. We need to think for ourselves. We need to be logical.
We need common sense. We need Tao 道. Without logic and calmness, how can we do things right. How can we be closer to God? Instead of being near, we are far from God?
Thus religions also teach men to be doctrine orientated. Know the Word and know God. The good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 says that the Word is his image. The image is the Word.
He is not what he looks like in his image. Better to look at what he teaches than to look at the image. Better to practice what he teaches than to kowtow to his image.
Be logical and not emotional. This applies to how we relate to all saints and religions. Do not be driven to hero-worship of man, saint or God. Idolize not God or saint.
Be logic driven and not emotion driven. We don't wait to be saint before we can be logical in religion. We will never be saint that way.
