Blind Obedience

Recently I got into a lot of thinking. No, not the academics. Its something bigger than that.

This faith issue has been bugging me since I was a kid. Yes I've been thinking a lot since then but never get a chance to speak it up. I didn't have a blogger account or a friend open-minded enough to talk about this.

Yesterday I let myself immersed in a controversial book titled "I, Lucifer" mapping out the thoughts of the Devil.

Let me shoot those questions.

One, if Islam is the only rightful religion, why did Allah allow people to receive epiphanies about other religions like Buddhism or Taoism? Why are they gonna be punished in Hell if the religion itself is 'allowed-to-be-spread' by the Majesty since He has all the power?

Two, what is the point of living if our lives have been destined? I mean, if destiny exists there's no point of putting efforts, there's no point of thinking that we can change something.

Three, if our paths of lives are destined, why are we still gonna be punished in the Hereafter? God created us, made our lifelines then He also gonna punish us, after deciding on the lifelines? And why He allows creation of stuffs that prevents us from abiding Him, for example the alcoholic drinks. Why did He allow that?

Four, whats gonna happen to people who commit sins before the emergence of Islam, I mean they aren't informed. They still gonna burn in Hell?

Five, whats gonna happen to people like me who have doubts? I'm just thinking, thats what brains do. Besides, He allows me to do the thinking anyway.

Someone please answer me.
