Very Controversial Idea

What if?

This could be an idea for a film but it is WAY too controversial. What if God us the bad guy and Lucifer (the devil) is the rebellious pioneer of free will. God is a dictator type who suppresses the free will of humans, simply making them to be his slaves and do his bidding, not questioning why they are there or to use logic. Lucifer was an angel for him and saw the corruption and was the only one to speak out against him. God banished him and set forth in destroying his name. On earth Lucifer encouraged the humans to ask "Why?" and to do things on their own merit. This angered God so much that he sent a great flood killing everyone hoping to "reset" things. The plan worked for a while but Lucifer continued to spread his message and God had to use another plan. God decided to appear on earth himself as someone named "Jesus". The primary goal of this person was to badmouth Lucifer and depict him as an evil monster called "the devil". What if all the teachings that we were led to "worship" are nothing more then propaganda and a smear campaign. 

Lets add a sci-fi twist to this story. God is a being from another superior planet. They travel the universe developing planets with life. This God being however had a huge ego and used the life forms as a way of stroking his ego. His behavior was so egotistical that that the home planet sent the being Lucifer to come regulate. These beings are not physical manifestations but more like spirits. I don't believe this but it is something I was just thinking about. I find it funny that those of us raised on religion are afraid to even bring up such questions and find talk like this sinful, deceitful, and blasphemous. The fact of the matter is that religion is the most powerful force on earth and can rally someone to murder or be used as a means of justifying murder. It is instilled in us before we can even rationalize and used as a way of keeping us in order. Imagine a society without religion? There would be no order. Even if I did find out for certain that religion was a scam, I would not reveal it to the masses. A lot of people need to look to someone for "answers". As a child they turn to their parents. When they get older and wiser then their parents they turn to their "God".

I know a lot of people will not like this article, but I am not telling you to become atheist or stop believing whatever it is you believe in. I'm just saying one should not be afraid to question and analyze things. This goes for all facets of life. Do not walk blindly into the night.
