Apply not the logic of one society on another

No 1494 of Living Life Series 1 




The problem with some including the so-called well heeled and civilised is that they impose their views on others. 

For example, they impose their definition of God as the ultimate Creator and pass remarks that respect for elders as the first gods in the family as wrong just because though elders like parents are creators, they themselves were created. 

So, if we forgo the premise that God is the ultimate creator and not created, then it is logical for parents, elders and adults who procreate to be regarded as the first gods. There will then be gods of gods. 

God above is the ultimate ruler of the immediate heaven above us. That God is no ultimate creator of all that be does not make God a lesser God or no God. 

Men tend not to see logic or Tou-li. Men are logical in their own culture but considers the logic of other cultures not logical. Society at large should not apply the logic of one culture on another. Religion is about the same Tou-li or basic logic - the common or inner truth behind all religions. This is the basic message of Bo Tien 武天

That men tend to be illogically logical is in the nature of man as one of the species of living things in the world we live in.
