Why these intermediaries?

For Protection? The Monolith!

Conversations in a trip through the journey of life....

HL: You know, I have had it up to here with the chief priest of temple. I have religiously been going to this temple for God knows how long but when I need help, the chief priest gives me the run around. Sometimes, I think he only serves the rich and famous, not a poor nobody like me!
FG: Why don't you ask his assistant to help you?
HL: His assistant rather has his boss do the consultation for fear of hurting him.
FG: What kind of out-of-this-world help that you are seeking that only the chief of chieftains can help?
HL: No, just wanted him to help me with my astronomical stars and charts so that I can do the necessary prayers!
FG: For what?
HL: Huh? So that I can do a proper prayer for blessing.
FG: For what?
HL: Huh?

The Gods sent this?

FG: Do you believe in God? Do you believe that He is omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient? If you do, then you must realise that you do not need to tell Him anything. Least of all, you do not intermediaries to tell Him your problems because He knows. He knows what you want, what he have, what you do not, what you need and even what you think! He is supposed to be a God for all. So, I think you can communicate with Him directly, why not?
FG: Nobody knows the purpose of this journey. Some claim to know it all as if they have had a direct audience with God or have seen what is there on the other side. But, believe you me, we are all just as ignorant. Nobody knows what is in store for you, for me, for each one of us. We are all just sailing clutching to whatever that he says, she says...
HL: But still...
FG: Aaah...We are here...but not quite on the other side...
