Reena’s Xploration Challenge #268

Prompt #268- I won’t say anything… just leaving you alone with your questions and thoughts on the picture.

————————————————————————————–

An Insoluble Question?

We human beings are confused—utterly confused.

Our inner self is brimming with endless questions about God.

Whether God is male or female

Is there only one god or multiple gods for multiple communities?

God belongs to which …?

So I wish and pray for God to come to earth once and for all to end all the confusion about Himself.

Will it end all the conflicts?

Will people stop fighting, or will they find some other issues for fighting?

Will they believe in God if he comes before them simply as it is?

People believe in miracles and get cheated by all…

For this week’s Xploration Challenge, Reena has provided us with the intriguing image below for our inspiration. Hope ye enjoy my response to it! 🙏🤞😁📖

All the meeples gathered in front of the Great Question Mark sitting with their heads bowed to ponder if life has any inherent meaning or purpose.  Their lives seemed meaningless, and it was almost like they were being used as a playing piece in a board game, being pushed around and told what to do, and where to go by some random throw of the dice.  Was this their place in the universe, or was there more to life?  These meeples were the renowned thinkers of their time, but they still felt like they were searching in the dark for meaning and since God never revealed how the story will end, they were left blind, waiting for something to shine the light on them.  Aquinas, Aristotle, Confucius, Dante, Descartes, Kant, Locke, Nietzsche, Pascal, Plato, Socrates, and Voltaire all gathered around in a circle looking for good, truth, and beauty that…
