MORTALS ARE MORE POWERFUL THAN THE ALMIGHTY

From Australopithecus, to Homoneanderthals, to Paleolithic, to Neolithic we have come a long way. We here is
the Human race or the mere mortals. Our intelligence and our ability to comprehend and our ability to
communicate has alleviated us from mere animals to humans. We developed the devastating atom bomb, we
went to space and landed in moon, we are now well ahead in our plans to colonize mars, and by doing things that
even two centuries ago was thought as preposterous we have started believing that we are the creators of this
universe. In the movie The Jurassic park there was a wonderful dialogue it goes like this, ”God created Man and
God created dinosaurs. God destroyed dinosaurs and Man created dinosaurs,” We mortals have started behaving
very arrogantly now a days. We are trying to control nature, the ultimate force, without thinking about what
nature can do to us. How ferocious nature can be was evident from the recent tsunami or hurricane Katrina or
the latur earthquake. But Katrina Latur and the tsunami was just sample of the force that nature can unleash on
the mere mortals, making us realize how insignificant we are in front of the forces of nature controlled by the
almighty, if we do not pay heed to it. and are we paying any attention to it? definitely not and in fact we are
going further we are now questioning God's very existence. We are saying that we the mortals are the only
intelligent being and we are the creator of our own destiny. We are deliberately now looking for designer babys or
for that matter cloning the good the bad the ugly. Why are we doing so?? just to prove that we the mortals have
achieved the power to act like God?? Our behavioral Pattern now a days also echoes the same sentiments. We
don't care for any body else now a days It is back to Darwinian theory the survival of the fittest. There was a
Islamic Fatwa on the noted writter Taslima Nasreen as she, according to the so called pillar of Islamic religion,
defiled Allah in her book 'lajja'. They are angry that a mere mortal has the right to speak about Allah and by
doing so Allah will cease to become a God .How can a few lines of a mortal defile God. Allah is at the supreme
seat and no body in the world can, even if he wants to, spoil his name. God, Allah, Bhagawan whatever one may
call is like a lotus in the pool of dirty water and even the dirty water does not defile the beautiful Lotus. The
actions of we the mortals are hurting Allah more than Taslima Nasreen. So many people in the world say so many
things about the Hindu Gods And Goddesses so is the Hindu pantheon defiled? Does God needs us mortals to
certify him? aren't we foolish enough and arrogant by doing all these and saying all these? when all religion in the
world has only said love thy neighbor and live and let live.
