Are we Rich enough to build temples, mosques and churches?
It’s believed that god resides inside a person and that he need out look around for him.
But only if people believed in what they believe in, there will be no poverty. The problem is not lack of funds but the way funds are utilized in this country. We spend crores and crores of money building temples, mosques and churches which hardly help in eradicating poverty and diseases from this world, which I personally rate much higher on the priority list whencompared to promoting religion which has caused more harm than good to this world. Almost everyday I read about celebrities donating lots of money in religious trusts. Can’t we utilize these funds to build more hospitals and schools, to promote medical research and to feed poor children of our country and of countries like Somalia and Chechnya?
Religion is a faith which keeps a person’s concise intact but humanity is an act which keeps this world intact.
Can we not do with lesser of these places which might in turn make the lives of a million people better? Let’s be rational, when we can think of ROI even buying something as small as a radio which hardly costs anything can’t we apply the same logic before we spends fortunes on the so-called- religious places. Personally I have own doubts about god living in these places as I’m sure he would have better things to do than living amongst hypocrites. And say even if he did he wouldn’t mind having lesser homes on earth for the sake of the happiness of a million kids.
Let’s build homes for them, whom we have never seen, let’s do it for those whom we have.
