I saw a poster today saying "follow Jesus and you will be saved". Well saved from what exactly? I think it is safe to say that christians want to be saved from evil or hell. In my opinion there is no hell greater than the fear our imagination can create. Imagine going crazy and not being able to hide from what scares you. I think that is as close to hell as one can get. Now lets say that one is always trying to figure out typically unsolvable questions like the meaning of life. One can go crazy by opening his mind and questioning the foundations of humanity as we see it today. I imagine that Jesus in a simple solution to the ultimate question, "what is the meaning of life?". If you accept this simple solution then you won't go crazy trying to figure out another answer. However, it seems to be evident that whatever answere we have to the meaning of life, it is not complete because we are definitely going to annihilate ourselves. Humanity is looking for another simple solution when the answer might be a lot more complicated. Hopefully the logic of it all is fairly simple. Maybe we simply need to tend towards harmony. It is common with most religion accross the planet.
