Light and Darkness in Religious Texts – A Test of Intellect
Introduction
The world’s religious scriptures—the Qur’an, the Bible, the Torah, the Talmud, the Zohar, the Kolbrin Bible, and the Gospel—all contain elements of light and darkness.
No book is perfect or free from human distortion, yet each contains truth that can be extracted.
This mixture of truth and contradiction is not a flaw, but rather a divine test—a challenge for human intellect and discernment.
The Purpose of Contradictions in Religious Texts
Many religious traditions attempt to reconcile contradictions through doctrines like abrogation, reinterpretation, or forced harmonization.
However, a more logical approach is to accept that these contradictions exist for a reason—to test whether one follows blindly or seeks the light amidst the confusion.
The Kolbrin Bible reflects this idea: "This is the reality we have, and it is the will of the Eternal." Our role is to navigate it with intellect.
The Role of Human Influence in Scripture
All texts have been shaped by human hands, whether through translation, interpretation, or historical alterations.
Religious authorities and institutions have often reshaped divine messages to establish power structures.
Recognizing this does not mean rejecting these texts, but rather approaching them with a critical mind.
Taking the Light Without Falling Into the Darkness
"It is not important who writes, but what is written; not who says, but what is said."
This principle helps in evaluating the wisdom in all religious traditions.
Instead of being confined to one tradition or doctrine, one should take what is pure, logical, and beneficial while rejecting confusion and manipulation.
The true path is not blind faith, but reasoned faith—seeking knowledge while maintaining awareness of distortions.
The Test of the Creator
If contradictions are intentional, then reconciling them artificially is a mistake—one must recognize them for what they are.
The test lies in whether one blindly follows religious dogma or uses intellect and discernment to uncover the truth.
The key question: Do you submit to a system built by men, or do you seek the light from the Creator directly?
Conclusion: The Path Forward
We are not meant to worship books, but to seek the truth within them.
The contradictions in scripture do not invalidate them but serve as markers of human influence, guiding those who think critically.
The eternal wisdom exists not in dogma, but in the pursuit of truth, guided by intellect, logic, and spiritual insight.
