Bloggers block

Wow it seems like I finally understand what a writer's block is all about. After posting religiously for the last 2 months it seems like I have a bloggers block. It's not like my life is any less interesting or any more boring than it was but all of a sudden I have nothing to write about. Part of it is because I am so confused and stressed nowadays that half of the time all I wanna do is sleep or watch the telly. There is no point ranting on about my life going in circles and crap.
To top it all of in a moment of desperation I went for a job interview a few days ago. The written test for the interview went bad but I still got a call for the second round which was surprising. Being the idiot I am I didn't even inquire about the pay package and stuff and traveled for 5 hours to reach Delhi, the venue for the final round of the interview, only to find out that the salary was so pathetic that it wouldn't even cover the rent for my apartment in Mumbai (the city in which the post was based). So I walked out of the interview building went to my favorite place in Delhi i.e. Khan Market and shopped for a while and came back home.


Yesterday I saw an interview of Richard Dawkins on Hardtalk on BBC.

The God Delusion is an anti-theistic book by British ethologist Richard Dawkins, Professor for the Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University. In the book, Dawkins contends that belief in a supernatural creator qualifies as a delusion, which he defines as a persistent false belief held in the face of strong contradictory evidence. He is sympathetic to Robert Pirsig's observation that "when one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion." Dawkins writes that The God Delusion contains four "consciousness-raising" messages:

1. Atheists can be happy, balanced, moral, and intellectually fulfilled.
2. Natural selection and similar scientific theories are superior to a "God hypothesis" — the illusion of intelligent design — in explaining the living world and the cosmos.
3. Children should not be labelled by their parents' religion. Terms like "Catholic child" or "Muslim child" should make people flinch.
4. Atheists should be proud, not apologetic, because atheism is evidence of a healthy, independent mind.

The two things that came in my mind after watching his interview were that in case we stop believing in the God, the higher being or whatever you may call him/her, who would we turn to in our moments of despair. At times when things go beyond our control the only thing we can do is pray and if we stop believing in prayers would we still be able to go on? I know for sure that I wouldn't be able to. Don't get me wrong I am not religious and stuff but without some form of spirituality in my life and without faith I don't think I'd be able to go on in life.
The other point was something that I partly agreed with. Dawkins said that as we don't label the child of Marxist parents as a Marxist child the same way the religion of the parents should not form the identity of the child. In a way that gives the child a clean slate to write upon and discover his own spiritual or religious calling.
What do you think about all this stuff? Please comment.
