Religion seems to create more problems that it solves. For a moment, forget about:

• whether organized religions make sense or which one is the right one, belief in something…anything intangible is fine. For some people, they seem to need that for direction and meaning in their life. For others, that direction and meaning comes from different sources like science, family, drugs and others. To me, this is all ok; different strokes for different folks.
• Being concerned with events that may or may not have happened prior to pre-recorded history.

Organized religion seems to create too many “our supreme being(s) is/are better than your supreme being(s)” situations. On small scales, this leads to cliques and faith-based segregation. In a global sense, this often leads to full-on wars.

What if instead, people believe in themselves, first and foremost? What if people live life being the best person that they can be, simply being kind to themselves and to others? War is acceptable homicide. I can’t see it being worth starting a war with somebody because they believed in themselves. Killing someone for believing in themselves and treating others with dignity and respect would be flat out murder.

Since I was a small boy, I’ve daydreamed. My parents/teachers/coaches constantly scold me for drifting off in thought, neglecting the task at hand, and I haven’t grown out of it.Daydream Revelation posts are my random thoughts about anything and everything that form without warning. Some of them are new. Some of them have existed since I was a child. Some have been refined over the years, while others have not. Either way, I’m documenting them on my blog. Enjoy, or don’t.
