Here I am after almost three years. Ladies and gentlemen....Children of all ages!! I am back!
Today...or I should say this morning, 17th of June...I am going to talk about my daughter's baptism. For those of you that didn't know, this little princess of four months and a half, is the newest addition to my family.
She is going to be baptized today into the Catholic religion, embarking on a very new and important journey towards spiritualism in one of the many faiths, or religions in our world today. Baptism is an admission into Christianity, or the Catholic church. This is not an endeavour to be taken lightly, as this is one of the stepping stones that should lead her towards discovering herself in this life that is beautiful, yet very complicated.
This young lady is to learn and experience that being integrated into a religion means a lot of things; namely an education on morals, respect, honesty, to name a few, which all comes down to integrity.
Learning to be open minded as well, to adhere to the fact that it does not matter another person's creed, race, or ethnic background, but that at the end of the day, everyone deserves an equal place in society.
At least that is what I believe. " Religion is a collection of cultural systems, belief systems, and worldviews that relate humanity to spirituality and, sometimes, to moral values."
This is what religion is you know....without it there would be chaos. Religion is supposed to keep organization, to keep people together, towards keeping equilibrium.
Religion influences everything in our society; from spiritualism, to politics; unification, to genocide...get it?
I will not go more into depth about the attributes of religion, but simply to say that, religion makes men and women, and at the same time, it was humankind that made religion. Therefore it is up to us on how we embrace it, and on how we practice it.
Thank you and have a good day, bless!
