The only right way - Vadim Platun

Don't you think there is a contradiction in your argument? On the one hand, you talk about the reasonableness of godlessness and the unreasonableness of faith. Okay. But on the other hand, your way of life, your misfortunes, and your depressions themselves testify to the unreasonableness of the godless, animal existence and the reasonableness of the happy life of the righteous. And the most interesting thing is that many people look at them and even envy them. Beautiful photos on social networks, gifts, resorts — it is like a kind of idyll, "a model of family happiness and well-being". But nobody sees what's behind the scenes. It's different in real life. In the photo they are smiling, but behind the photo they are fighting. So why are family psychologists so prevalent in their midst? Among non-believers, there is a huge percentage of suicide, divorce, adultery, drug addiction, depression, and unhappiness. Most people do not understand what they are living for and how to live it. If there is no God, if there is no next life, if there is no hell, if there is no Heaven, what are you living for, unbelievers? What is the point of enduring pain, suffering, and humiliation in this life? Okay, if you were all billionaires and bathed in pleasure from dawn to dusk, then at least it would be somehow possible to justify your choice for a life without faith. But even if you are a billionaire without faith, it makes no sense, everything will soon be over forever and more, your end will be even more painful, and you will have to answer for everything. You have been given all this for the glory of your Creator, not the other way around.

But most people are ordinary office workers or employees of some middle-class companies. What do you live for if you do not believe in God? To eat, to drink, to sleep, to satisfy your needs?

You should seriously think about the fact that despite your education, despite the many mentors you have had in your life, despite the many life skills you have learned, despite the many books you have read, despite the many motivators you have had — all of this has not helped you to be happy in your life, to make up your mind, to gain inner peace, to be yourself, to be clear about what you are living for. Maybe it's time to try something else. Why don't you recognize your own experience? Look at your bookshelves. A bunch of foreign authors, beautiful covers, fancy titles, and names, alluring slogans. But there's not much truth in them. Maybe it's time to think about it, or are you going back to sleep? Even if you become very rich and buy everything you want and solve all your everyday problems, it will not make you happy. A few pleasant feelings and that's it. Happiness is not achieved by covering a momentary desire. Happiness is a permanent human state. We will reflect on this a little later, in a separate chapter.

The upshot of all this is one — the unbeliever has logic without logic, and the way of faith he has chosen is not true.

Material prosperity

Let's talk about what helps you succeed in material life. I guess everybody thinks about that. Many people believe in it, in material success. Is it true that this belief will help you achieve it?

In reality, everything contradicts those fairy tales that you have already been told by these modern coaches, mentors, business gurus, and so on. About how they supposedly work 24/7, sleep little, eat little. How they were very poor, but they had the mindset of billionaires and they fought and they didn't give up and they succeeded in the end. And in reality, you know, every single one of these stories always ends up about how one's father was the mayor of the city, another's uncle, I don't know, gave them a 0 % century loan. It's all nonsense, and the reality is completely different. Ask any honest rich man where he got his worldly wealth, his money. He will tell you that he just got lucky at some point in his life, that's all. And he didn't even know how or why. He just found the right people, chose the right contract, and everything just kind of fell into place, and things started going well. That is, circumstances beyond their control happened to them that led them to success and wealth. Think about it. If financial well-being depended on ability, hard work, knowledge, and so on. Then, first of all, smart, energetic, high-spirited people would be the richest people in the world. Second, we would see the obvious superiority of some people over others because of their peculiarities and characteristics. Third, there would be tangible, real, controllable tools to force external circumstances to work for us. Fourth, everyone who knew about these tools would use them and become the richest man. But as we can see, there is no such thing — everything is just the opposite. Some toothless, unpleasant, unkempt, dirty man, who has not finished two grades, buys a tomato, sells a tomato, and is richer than all of us put together. And the same genius with three higher education, training, sales funnel, studying Robert Kiyosaki, with cryptos and tons of empty information, he just sits on such a man's salary and he can't do anything about it. That's how it is, can you explain that? I know a lot of smart, active people who are considered losers by today's standards. I also know a lot of hardened, inert, lazy people who have weak brains, and yet they are all rich. Even though none of them know what a sales funnel is, none of them have read Kiyosaki, and none of them have taken any training, they all have money.

Here is my example. I graduated from the university and
