For several years I have been hearing from several religious preachers that God has created this universe, and he is the only one who knows everything about you.

I have read Religious Books that say that Humans are filled with bad habits like;

1. Hypocrisy
2. Arrogance
3. Conceit
4. Anger
5. Harshness, and Ignorance

And when we ask those religious preachers why did God created live? They are speechless.

I believe God is playing a simulation, in which he or she arrives, plays their part, becomes a hero and at last completes the game. This is what I think, but reality can be totally difficult.

What was the need to create life? Why can't this world be without life and why is it necessary for God to create anything at all?

First, he (God) creates this Universe, then creates life, and then gives his own guidelines, and then also places all the bad habits in humans or other organisms.

Everything is created by God, even our hormones and feelings or emotions. Still, God says in several different religious books that if we don't follow his teachings, then we will land in hell or we will have to take birth like some animal or other organism.

When God created humans and other organisms then he only introduced feelings, chemicals and hormones that make us what we are and he knows what bad we will do in future. Why can't he take us to correct part automatically. Why do we have to decide what is right or wrong?

I believe God is just playing with us as a Video Game. If he is real then he is just sitting next to a simulation and making sure that he always succeeds and this game ends and then it starts again and again.

If God is not real, in that case this Universe was made by an accident, and we should only pray to the energy that created us.

Then several people ask, why are there so many miracles if God is not real?
Well, for this I have a simple answer. We are the Universe.

Consider yourself as a small universe in itself which is made up of atoms, and molecules and we are trying to observe ourselves through different organisms and objects in this vast endlessness.

Having said that, we have to understand that there is randomness that is taking this universe and the universe inside us to somewhere in the future, but we will never know where it will actually take us because nothing is defined and everything is going to be defined in future for the first time. There is nothing like destiny and we have the free will to create our own destiny.

In that case, it also makes sense that if we are working hard and if we stay positive then we will find some way to complete tasks and reach to our target. But if God is real, in that case we should just pray to God and leave our domestic lives. This should help us in evolving our human civilization, which is not the case.

There are several religious preachers and some of them who have become famous also. They all need the technological advancements to stay connected with their followers. Some have become famous just because their videos have become viral on YouTube and other Social Media Platforms. They preach things that don't make any sense at all.

They say that we should be away from materialistic things, when in reality, people who are passionate about materialistic things are the ones who contribute to the development of this technology and even help in human evolution.

There are religious gurus that are using medical science to keep themselves alive because they didnt take care of their body in the first place. Then they say that, look God is taking care of my body and even with terminal illness I am sitting in front of you and preaching. There are doctors working behind the scenes to keep him alive, but he has more clarity and trust on the God that has provided him with these resources.

One should try to understand that God is something that provides a hope to someone that has lost everything, but he or she will have to work hard themselves to take themselves out of the misery that they are living in.

You will have to believe in yourself that you can do something to change your life. As the saying goes, "God Helps Those Who Help Themselves".

This is true, because there is some energy that helps someone who takes effort.

Right now there a religious preacher saying that birth is not in our control, but our life is in our control, or is it in real?

I don't think so. One has to understand that if God is real, then he is just playing with each and everyone of our lives. He doesn't has the rights or maybe he has because he can decide where we are going to born and when we will die. He may also have power to revive someone, in that case we have no choice but to keep living as per his terms and conditions and just live.

But if there is no God in this world, in that case we are just running behind a Ghost all around, and religious preachers are just motivational speakers that work to assure us that we are doing something wrong that has made our life a hell. They tell us to follow certain steps that can help us in making our lives great.

At the end I would also like to add that we cannot just ignore the fact that God is not there. This is because even though we may feel that God is not there, but miracles do happen and we don't know how. Maybe it is because of Gods.

One has to understand that this all is unreal and reality is not going to be same every single time.

You will have to live life like it is and listen to both the sides who say God is there and those who say that God is not real. Just understand whatever direction you take, just be a good human. Try to be kind to every organism on earth and adhere to your morals. If God is there, he will be happy with you, but if he is not there, then it doesn't even matters. You will be able to survive nicely because you won't fell into issues like the bad people do.

In both the cases, if you were kind to people and other organisms, you are going to be safe and will be going to heaven.

When Smartphones get old, those are usually eating dust in some corners of our homes, and that may be because of several reasons;

• You have got a new smartphone, which would obviously be necessary because most phones become outdated after a few years of use and change in technology.
• Your old smartphone's battery is not keeping up with your day-to-day activities, which again gets you in trouble because you need to have an alternative phone or power bank in that case.

Smartphones are constantly evolving to the point where they are no longer useful or relevant. But it is also not practical to throw a smartphone just because it is not so relevant to today's necessities. 

There are several ways by which we can use old smartphones and there is no need to throw them out in the garbage. If you have a used smartphone, like iPhone, Windows, or Android phone, there are many cool things you can do with old phones that will make them useful again.

1. Use it as a dedicated Media Player:
   Turn your old smartphone into a dedicated Media Player. Load it with your favorite music, podcasts, audiobooks, or videos, and use it while working out, commuting, or relaxing at home. You can also use it as a dedicated music player for your car because usually, our car has to be connected to our mobile phones, which again drains our battery. 
   
   So, if you have an old smartphone, you can use it dedicatedly in your car for playing music and using maps on the go.
    
2. Use it as a Security Camera:
   Transform your smartphone into a home security camera. There are various apps available that can turn your old device into a monitoring camera, allowing you to keep an eye on your home remotely. I used this kind of system when I had to keep an eye on my bike, which used to be outside my old residence, where local people were not so friendly. 
   
   I used to sit in another room as my internet used to work in another room so I had set up my office in that room, but I had my smartphone connected to my laptop, so I was able to keep an eye over my bike even if I was not in the same room.
   
   You can even insert a sim card in your own smartphone or connect it with your home wifi, in that case, you will be able to monitor your home from other parts of the world as well.
    
3. eBook Reader:
   Use your old smartphone as an eBook reader. Install eBook apps and read your favorite books wherever you go. This comes in handy especially when you are traveling via flights because you cannot connect your phone to the internet, and if you have your favorite eBooks installed on your phone, in that case, you don't need to connect it to the internet and can also read them on your leisure.
   
   One more thing is that you will not drain your primary phone's battery because you will be using your old phone for reading eBooks.
    
4. Use it as a Remote Control:
   Turn your old smartphone into a universal remote control for your TV, or DVD player, or other devices using apps designated for this purpose. I checked out one such device online, which is able to push buttons or switches on or off when installed. Therefore, you can use your phone as a remote control for your switches as well.
    
5. Use it as a Kitchen Helper:
   Keep your old smartphone in the kitchen and use it as a recipe reference, cooking timer, or for watching cooking tutorials. I used it for watching my favorite cartoons on youtube and also for searching for new recipes. This helped me in keeping my primary phone on charge, and there was also no danger of my primary phone getting covered with oil vapors.
    
6. Use your old phone as a Digital Photo Frame:
   Load your old smartphone with your favorite photos and set it up as a digital photo frame on your desk or wall. You may have to check the battery levels in between, but it is one of the great ways to use it, as you can change the photos as per occasion as well, or can also start a slideshow for all the photos that you have on your phone.
    
7. Use it as a Gaming Device:
   Use your old smartphone as a dedicated gaming device for casual games or retro emulators. I used to play Mario on my old Android phone which was really awesome because it used to remind me of the good old days.
    
8. Give it to your kids:
   Securely remove sensitive data and install educational or entertaining apps to create a dedicated device for your child to use. You can also install several tracking apps that can help you track your kids wherever they go. Keep them informed about this tracking so that they are also aware not to uninstall those apps. This could really help in some emergency cases. 
   
   For example, once one of my friend's kid's school took them for a picnic, and their school bus got stranded in an unknown location because of some breakdown, but luckily my friend had kept a tracking app and was able to rescue the whole team because she had the last location in her tracking device by informing the authorities when the bus didn't come on time.
    
9. Use it as a Fitness Tracker:
   Utilize your phone as a fitness tracker by installing health and fitness apps that can monitor your daily activities. This will also save your primary phone from too much information and battery drain.
    
10. Use it as an Emergency Backup Phone:
    Keep your old smartphone charged and ready as a backup phone in case your primary device runs out of battery or malfunctions.
     
11. Use it for DIY Projects:
    Get creative and explore DIY projects like turning your old smartphone into a mini-computer, a home automation hub, or a smart mirror. I used to use my old smartphone as a separate chat phone so that people are not able to know what I usually use for chatting.
    
    I also used to install different software to check if I can expand its overall functionality. You can even use it as a personal assistant by downloading to-do lists and time trackers.
     
12. Use it as a Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot:
    If your old smartphone can still connect to the internet, you can use it as a portable Wi-Fi hotspot to provide internet access to other devices while you are on the go.
     
13. Use it as a Language Translator:
    Install language translation apps and use your old smartphone as a portable language translator when traveling to foreign countries.
     
14. Use it as a Weather Station:
    Transform your old smartphone into a weather station by installing weather apps that provide real-time forecasts and weather updates.
     
15. Use it as a Baby Monitor:
    Use your old smartphone as a baby monitor by installing baby monitor apps, which can help you keep an eye and ear on your little one.
     
16. Use it as a Digital Notebook:
    Turn your smartphone into a digital notebook or journal, where you can jot down ideas, make to-do lists, and store important information.
     
17. Use it as a Barcode/QR Scanner:
    Utilize your old smartphone as a barcode or QR code scanner for price comparisons or to access online information quickly.
     
18. Install Offline Maps and Navigation:
    Load your old smartphone with offline maps and navigation apps to use as a backup navigation tool in areas with poor internet connectivity. If you are traveling to a city where there is metro connectivity or some local transport, in that case, you can download apps that give transit maps as well.
     
19. Use it as a Voice Recorder:
    Use your smartphone as a voice recorder to capture lectures, interviews, or personal notes.
     
20. Use it as a Bird Watching Tool:
    Use your smartphone's camera and bird identification apps to aid in birdwatching and learn more about the feathered visitors in your area. Just like Ash used to do it using its portable Pokemon Identifying Device Poke-Dex (if I remember it correctly) :)

Remember to wipe all personal data from your old smartphone before repurposing it, and in any case, I suggest not to donate or gift it because even if your data is deleted, still it can be recovered by hackers. Therefore, it is always better to keep your smartphones with yourself or destroy them by breaking them apart and also removing their batteries.
