False hope by God ?

It is amazing how human mind's work ! Well, whether we like it or not, in this world, there are bound to be a lot of intentionally deluded sickos trying all sorts of justifications to avoid responsibilities for their ill meaning actions.

I found it amusing to read a news article regarding a 40 years old Romanian man by the name of Pavel Mircea filing a lawsuit in the town of Timisoara against God. Pavel Mircea was sentence to serve 20 years in prison for committing murder. He sued God for not answering his prayers and breach of contract in protecting him from evil and turning over him to Satan who encourage him to kill.

Mircea listed "God, resident in heaven, represented in Romania by the Orthodox church" as the defendant in his law suit. He claimed that God has accepted his prayers and offerings without providing any services in return. He also alleged that God's dereliction include fraud, breach of trust, abuse of position of authority, and misappropriation of goods.

In the past, I find it amusing to read about deluded criminals and sickos carrying out misdeeds in the name of their God. I also find it annoying to read about grievance seekers blaming everybody except themselves for their ill intentions. Blaming God for your own stupidities and criminalities ? I think this is a bit too ridiculous. Maybe he should also sue his parents for providing wrong education. Why not also sue his siblings for not doing more or doing to little to satisfy his perverted delusions of perpetually blaming others ? Well, I guess sickos are all the same no matter where they are from.

As a Buddhist, I do not believe in the existence of relationship between self and God. But I do believe in Karma and Vipakka, and I believe in living an ethical life. So my friends, believe in yourself, be good and do good. Stop blaming God or everybody else for your so called "misfortunes" or "misdeeds". Life would be more meaningful if all of us can have the moral obligations to be responsible for our own actions. Don't you think so ? By the way, the most sacred and holy place of worhsip is in your heart and mind. Going to beautiful places of worships and parading to be seen by many to be God fearing is not going to make you a better or spiritual person.

In God we trust ? I shake my head..... Om Namo Amithaba Buddha....
