Baz\u0131 c\u00fcmleler vard\u0131r; yaln\u0131zca okunmaz, insan\u0131n zihnine yerle\u015fir.<\/p>\n
Y\u00fczy\u0131llar ge\u00e7se de etkisini kaybetmez.<\/p>\n
Lucius Annaeus Seneca\u2019ya atfedilen \u015fu s\u00f6z gibi:<\/p>\n
\u201cDin, s\u0131radan insanlar i\u00e7in ger\u00e7ek, bilgeler i\u00e7in masal, iktidarlar i\u00e7inse kullan\u0131\u015fl\u0131d\u0131r.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bu c\u00fcmle rahats\u0131z edicidir. \u00c7\u00fcnk\u00fc cevap vermez; insan\u0131n zihninde bir soru b\u0131rak\u0131r. Ve belki de medeniyet dedi\u011fimiz \u015fey, o sorular\u0131n tarihi \u00fczerine kuruludur.<\/p>\n
\u0130nsanl\u0131k tarihinin en eski s\u0131\u011f\u0131naklar\u0131ndan biri dindir.<\/p>\n
\u0130nsan, ilk korkusundan beri g\u00f6r\u00fcnmeyene tutundu. \u00c7\u00fcnk\u00fc hayat \u00e7o\u011fu zaman a\u00e7\u0131klanamayacak kadar sertti. \u00d6l\u00fcm vard\u0131. A\u00e7l\u0131k vard\u0131. Adaletsizlik vard\u0131. \u0130nsan, evrenin ortas\u0131nda yaln\u0131z kalmamak i\u00e7in g\u00f6\u011fe bakt\u0131.<\/p>\n
Bu y\u00fczden din yaln\u0131zca bir inan\u00e7 sistemi olmad\u0131.<\/p>\n
Ayn\u0131 zamanda bir teselli, bir aidiyet ve kaosun ortas\u0131nda kurulmu\u015f b\u00fcy\u00fck bir anlam d\u00fczeni h\u00e2line geldi.<\/p>\n
Bug\u00fcn h\u00e2l\u00e2 milyonlarca insan i\u00e7in mutlak hakikat olmas\u0131n\u0131n nedeni de belki budur. \u00c7\u00fcnk\u00fc insan her zaman ger\u00e7e\u011fi aramaz; \u00e7o\u011fu zaman dayanabilece\u011fi bir anlam arar.<\/p>\n
Fakat tarih bir noktada de\u011fi\u015fti.<\/p>\n
D\u00fc\u015f\u00fcnce sahneye \u00e7\u0131kt\u0131.<\/p>\n
Filozoflar geldi.<\/p>\n
Bilim geldi.<\/p>\n
\u015e\u00fcphe geldi.<\/p>\n
Ve insan ilk kez kutsala soru sormaya ba\u015flad\u0131:<\/p>\n
\u201cYa anlat\u0131lanlar mutlak hakikat de\u011filse?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0130\u015fte uygarl\u0131\u011f\u0131n en b\u00fcy\u00fck k\u0131r\u0131lmalar\u0131ndan biri burada ba\u015flad\u0131. \u00c7\u00fcnk\u00fc soru soran ak\u0131l ile mutlak itaat isteyen yap\u0131 hi\u00e7bir zaman tam anlam\u0131yla uzla\u015fmad\u0131.<\/p>\n
Ancak burada \u00f6nemli bir ayr\u0131m yapmak gerekir.<\/p>\n
Bir anlat\u0131n\u0131n sembolik olmas\u0131, onu de\u011fersiz yapmaz. \u0130nsanl\u0131k yaln\u0131zca \u00e7\u0131plak ger\u00e7eklerle ya\u015famaz. Mitlerle, hik\u00e2yelerle ve ortak kabullerle de ayakta kal\u0131r.<\/p>\n
Bug\u00fcn modern d\u00fcnyaya bakt\u0131\u011f\u0131m\u0131zda bunu a\u00e7\u0131k\u00e7a g\u00f6r\u00fcyoruz.<\/p>\n
Uluslar kahramanl\u0131k hik\u00e2yeleriyle varl\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131 s\u00fcrd\u00fcr\u00fcyor.<\/p>\n
Ekonomiler ba\u015far\u0131 mitleriyle besleniyor.<\/p>\n
Siyaset ise s\u00fcrekli yeni kutsallar \u00fcretiyor.<\/p>\n
Demek ki mesele yaln\u0131zca din de\u011fil.<\/p>\n
Mesele, insan\u0131n inanma ihtiyac\u0131.<\/p>\n
Fakat Seneca\u2019ya atfedilen s\u00f6z\u00fcn en sert k\u0131sm\u0131 sona sakl\u0131d\u0131r:<\/p>\n
\u201c\u0130ktidarlar i\u00e7in kullan\u0131\u015fl\u0131d\u0131r.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0130\u015fte tarihin karanl\u0131k y\u00fcz\u00fc burada ba\u015fl\u0131yor.<\/p>\n
\u00c7\u00fcnk\u00fc hi\u00e7bir iktidar yaln\u0131zca zor kullanarak ayakta kalamaz. \u0130nsanlar\u0131 y\u00f6netmenin en g\u00fc\u00e7l\u00fc yolu, onlar\u0131n korkular\u0131na, vicdanlar\u0131na ve kutsallar\u0131na dokunabilmektir.<\/p>\n
Korkan insan s\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131r.<\/p>\n
S\u0131\u011f\u0131nan insan itaat eder.<\/p>\n
Ve tarih boyunca hi\u00e7bir g\u00fc\u00e7, kutsal\u0131n sa\u011flad\u0131\u011f\u0131 me\u015fruiyet kadar etkili bir ara\u00e7 bulamam\u0131\u015ft\u0131r.<\/p>\n
Krallar tanr\u0131 ad\u0131na konu\u015ftu.<\/p>\n
Ordular tanr\u0131 ad\u0131na y\u00fcr\u00fcd\u00fc.<\/p>\n
\u0130nsanlar tanr\u0131 ad\u0131na \u00f6ld\u00fcrd\u00fc.<\/p>\n
Yine insanlar tanr\u0131 ad\u0131na \u00f6ld\u00fc.<\/p>\n
Bug\u00fcn de\u011fi\u015fen ne?<\/p>\n
Belki sadece ara\u00e7lar de\u011fi\u015fti.<\/p>\n
Saraylar\u0131n yerini ekranlar ald\u0131.<\/p>\n
Tahtlar\u0131n yerini k\u00fcrs\u00fcler ald\u0131.<\/p>\n
Ama y\u00f6ntem ayn\u0131 kald\u0131.<\/p>\n
\u00c7\u00fcnk\u00fc h\u00e2l\u00e2 en kolay siyaset, kutsal\u0131 siyasete d\u00f6n\u00fc\u015ft\u00fcrmektir. Zira din tart\u0131\u015f\u0131ld\u0131\u011f\u0131 anda insanlar fikirlerini de\u011fil, kimliklerini savunmaya ba\u015flar.<\/p>\n
G\u00fcc\u00fcn s\u0131rr\u0131 da tam burada gizlidir.<\/p>\n
\u0130nan\u00e7, insan\u0131 y\u00fcceltebilir.<\/p>\n
Ama \u00f6rg\u00fctlenmi\u015f inan\u00e7, bazen iktidar\u0131n en i\u015flevsel arac\u0131na d\u00f6n\u00fc\u015febilir.<\/p>\n
Belki de bu y\u00fczden o s\u00f6z iki bin y\u0131l sonra bile ya\u015famaya devam ediyor.<\/p>\n
\u00c7\u00fcnk\u00fc mesele yaln\u0131zca Tanr\u0131\u2019n\u0131n varl\u0131\u011f\u0131 ya da yoklu\u011fu de\u011fil.<\/p>\n
The point is this:<\/p>\n
\u0130nsan neden inan\u0131r?<\/p>\n
And more importantly...<\/p>\n
\u0130nsanlar\u0131n neye inanaca\u011f\u0131n\u0131 kim belirler?<\/p>\n
