Hey guys how are you doing? hope you are all fine. I am doing some research. This research requires me to ask people theological, philosophical and sociological questions. I have asked a few Aussies and they had very good, interesting answers. Now I want to expand my horizons and ask you guys to participate, if you please-you don't have to, but if you do, that would be excellent. I have the following questions:
Q1. What is heaven?
Q2. Is there right or wrong, good or bad?
Q3. If God is all-good, omniscient and omnipotent, why is there evil in the world?
Q4. Why do people get wary of others?
Q5. Is there equality in Western countries?
My short answers and Stacie's (an Aussie uni student):
A1. A Kenya that is peaceful, free of insecurity, inequality and that has a good social (friends and family), political and economic system = ultimate happiness, in my opinion. Stacie- there is no heaven.
A2. It depends. Killing animals in some Western countries is wrong, in Africa, there is absolutely nothing wrong with killing an animal. Stacie- good and bad, right or wrong is relative to time, place and culture.
A3. As karma (you do something wrong to a person, it'll come back 100 fold), to make you grow stronger, free-will. Stacie- there is no God, is there?
A4. Don't have a clue, I wish I knew.
A5. Absolutely not. They think they are though. For example, not well-off kids go to public schools/well-off kids go to private schools, this is a well known division. Further, I volunteered in a Legal Community Centre (LCC), last semester- only people who cannot afford legal representation from big law firms, come to LCC for legal rep because its free. The lawyers here do pro bono work. Stacie-I agree with Viki.
Your thoughts and opinions would be very helpful, thanks in advance, viki.
Thomas- I talked to Irene via email. I don't have a number yet.
Kibet- Don't worry, I am the proud owner of a West Australian Driving Licence.
