I Believe In Evidence

Dr. Martha Andrea Castro Noriega, MD WMA FACS

“Don’t you believe in anything?” Isaac Asimov said, «I believe in evidence. I believe in observation, measurement, and reasoning, confirmed by independent observers».

«Organized» religion, «des-organized» religion: sects and cults, have been created by humans throughout millennia. As humans evolved from small hunter-gatherer tribes into large agrarian cultures, our ancestors needed to encourage cooperation and tolerance among relative strangers. Religion then—along with the belief in a moralizing God—was a cultural adaptation to these challenges.

Anything Goes On Sunday: Closed Minded People Are Not Truthful

Dr. Martha Andrea Castro Noriega, MD WMA FACS

Close minded people are not truthful, because being «right» is more important to them, no matter what.

And I don´t care if they are religious, irreligious, theist, atheist, or what ever. Unfortunately closed minded people come in many labels, believers and non-beliviers, etc, etc, etc. Human condition?

Dr. Martha Andrea Castro Noriega, MD WMA FACS

I am so tired and fed up with religion today, every day, but especially today. All the hate religion causes is wrapped with hypocrisy.

Saturday Night For The Freethinker 4 Signs You Are Born A Freethinker Part 2

Dr. Martha Andrea Castro Noriega, MD WMA FACS

1. You are brilliant and NEVER STOP asking WHY

free thinking dr martha castro noriega mexico

2. You are the pope of your own life:  As a free-thinker, you live by your own set of rules, and NO ONE,  not even your beloved mother, can tell you to live otherwise. You came by your beliefs through your own experience and curiosity. You tested them and they stood up to your tests. It’s impossible for you to kowtow to religious or secular bylaws created to control people.

3. You understand that there are many ways to see the world

4. You have fun! Free-thinkers don’t take things too seriously when they don’t have to. It’s fun to wrap your head around new ideas. It’s fun to try new things. It’s fun to eat new foods. Life is full of adventures and free thinkers are up for the adventure.

Now, our FREETHOUGHT OF THE DAY

-HUMOR: but what about those people who find pleasure hurting themselves, you know, masochists and what not? I don’t think that «do unto others as you would have them do unto you» would be very kind. 😅

Saturday Night For The Freethinker: Logic Is Wisdom

Dr. Martha Andrea Castro Noriega, MD WMA FACS

It is so much easier to use logic than being absurd. I have no idea how illogical people manage their «entangled» thoughts. It must be very confusing and painful for their minds.

When religious fanatics approach me to try to «accept» their god or religion, I just walk away. Do not talk to them. They have an illogical mind. They will never reason. My time is precious.

If we all used logic more often…

And now our FREETHOUGHT OF THE WEEK!

Saturday Night For The Freethinker: The Hypocrisy In Religion Part 2

Dr. Martha Andrea Castro Noriega, MD WMA FACS
atheist agnostic religion god dr martha castro noriega mexico america california

I absolutely despise the hypocrisy in religion. I was raised Catholic then Methodist and I was always taught “Judge not lest ye be judged”, “Love thy neighbor as thyself”, and “Do unto others as they would have done unto you.” So, what exactly have I witnessed in Christianity? None of it!

atheist agnostic religion god dr martha castro noriega mexico america california

You can’t just call yourself a “Good Christian” and then discriminate against different groups of people. If there was really a God, why are very good people dying of terrible diseases like cancer? Why are so many people across the globe living in poverty? Why is there always fighting? Why is there no world peace?

It’s not okay to go up to someone and say “If you don’t accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you are going to Hell.” Everyone is entitled to have their own beliefs and people need to respect that. Also, there are over 4000 different religions throughout the world, so how can anyone assume that their religion is right and everyone else is wrong?

Saturday Night For The Freethinker: The Right To Question Everything

Dr. Martha Andrea Castro Noriega, MD WMA FACS

It’s our responsibility as conscientious human beings with a heathy brain to question everything. This is how we inform ourselves, grow, evolve, and get smarter everyday.

free thinker atheism religion question everything dr martha castro noriega mexico

Many people are so gullible that tend to believe everything that is fed to them through MSM, social media, politics, religion, etc. And they follow like sheep. One of the main problems I have noticed is the mental fanaticism and radicalism in people.

It is my opinion that no matter if someone believes with fanaticism in any god or behaves like an atheist zealot, then that person tend to absorbe the wrong information, create false thoughts, and make wrong decisions.

There are many religions that oppress, spread fear or hope (heaven or hell for example), to control and stop you from questioning their beliefs, and make you follow. Atheists extremists can be a pain in the buttocks too. They think that they are always right because they support their lack of belief on science (evolution).

So you see, having an open mind and being more of a centrist, a free thinker, is always a more conscientious way to live without causing damage to yourself or others.

Saturday Night For The Free Thinker: Carl Sagan (Part 1) Questioning Religion

Dr. Martha Andrea Castro Noriega, MD WMA FACS

I love Carl Sagan scientific life. He was a scientist who, despite his passing on December 20, 1996 keeps on educating us with his intellectual abilities and philosophical analysis on life.

Books, articles, journals signed by several Nobel Prize winners, conferences about science, astrophysics, astronomy, philosophy and more.

Carl Sagan was a passionate advocate of scientific and critical thinking.

carl sagan atheism agnostic god religion dr martha castro noriega mexico

«The major religions on the Earth contradict each other left and right. You can’t all be correct. And what if all of you are wrong? It’s a possibility, you know. You must care about the truth, right? Well, the way to winnow through all the differing contentions is to be skeptical. I’m not any more skeptical about your religious beliefs than I am about every new scientific idea I hear about. But in my line of work, they’re called hypotheses, not inspiration and not revelation.» —— Carl Sagan
