But who will be the referee?
I typed a title I liked and now I have to try to compose a post that fits it. I don’t know of any UFC fighters with the names of either death or religion so it isn’t about an upcoming match. I suppose that a little league team sponsored by an undertaker might be pitted against a church squad but I won’t be writing about that either. Death vs Religion could also be the choices given to a victim of the Spanish Inquisition: ‘convert to the church or be killed’. But those days are gone and I’m not interested in rehashing the supposedly ‘holy’ excesses of the past. So what is left?
The Akashic Records are The Truth
I would like to launch into a tirade about how some religion has largely let people down in the main task of preparing them for the onset of death, but that would be DeathPro vs Religion.
The various religions each have their core beliefs and all of these seem to differ, sometimes the differences are as night and day. Christians believe in heaven and hell, whereas Buddhists expect to be reincarnated. Yet when it comes to the end of a person’s life, death always wins. And then all of religion’s bets are off because there isn’t a big cosmic shaker that filters souls into bins of the appropriate sect. Each spirit progresses into the one true ‘religion’ of eternity.
And what is that one true religion? It is just simply faith, love and truth. I have an analogy for what I think of most religions. Each fast food restaurant has their own version of burgers. All tout theirs as being superlative but when the burgers are eaten, they just turn into digesting mush in a belly because that’s what they need to be for the body to absorb the nutrients.
One church may be richer and another might have a nicer sounding choir. The pews at one might be padded, while another might have a higher steeple, but at the end of a life, even a pope can’t take his jeweled miter and satin vestments with him. There is just comfortable death waiting to take a soul back, as naked as it came.
