The notion of divinity keeps changing as new inventions through science disapprove traditional notions. This has ignited a debate in religious circles and heralded the emergence of a grouping where God is pronounced Jeezes. The answers provided by religion no longer satisfy the curiosity of humanity. Traditional theology has ceased to be the center of human thinking. These ideas are gaining momentum and being embraced by followers in different parts of the world.
The discussions on the new understanding of deity are being carried out through online videos, blogs, books and particular platforms. The question of death has steered the debate in a new direction. Death of a young man or woman becomes a bigger puzzle considering the suffering that those left behind under go. This taints the image of goodness and mercy that is associated with gods. It is contrary to the notion of universal good.
The family that looses a young parent undergoes a lot of suffering immediately and in later days. There is a lot of hope that the young family will enjoy togetherness for long. Such a dream is then cut short by unexplained death. Children do not grow up with the joy of having both parents. Theologians are finding it even harder to explain such scenarios. They are in a dilemma selling God as all loving and all caring.
The long life enjoyed by evil people compared to the suffering and poverty experienced by good people becomes a contradiction. Continued living by the evil people becomes a bigger burden to the oppressed. Such scenarios cause the good people to loose faith in natural justice and even doubt the fact that divinity is good. This is a debate that continues to draw varied reactions in different quotas.
A pastor who has tried to explain the scenario is called Jeeves. He uses the example of this servant called Job. He had a lot of wealth that was wiped out in one instance. All this children and possessions disappeared. This, according to Jeeves, was supposed to test his faith. It should give humanity strength instead of weakening their faith.
There is contention on the notion that God is perfect. The existence of catastrophic occurrences like floods, diseases and earthquakes indicates his imperfect nature. Such occurrences have lead to immense suffering on the part of humanity. There is no reason why innocent human beings should suffer in this sense. Such catastrophes lead to immense suffering for many families and communities. It would be considered as an ungodly act.
Creation and evolution theories continue to make headlines even in these debates. Scientific discoveries are proving some of these notions wrong. Life seems to be more complex than what is recorded in religious stories. The younger generation is becoming more restless since they have more access to information. They are able to combine facts from different quotas in order to draw their own conclusions.
The shift in theological perspectives is affecting traditional sense of God. It is causing a total dismantling and an apparent creation of a more conforming being. Scholars in both ends continue to exchange punches on who is right and who is wrong in the debate with no end in sight.
