JINU...
How did U come into being... QURAN speaks on our CREATOR who created all that exits... and It asks us to use our intellectual which ALLAH has given us. I request you to PONDER on what it says...

I agree, believing blindly doesnt make sense... But God has given intellectual to human being and he created us to worship him alone... Y dont we use our intellectual to know who is worthy of Worship rather than worshiping idols and animals...
Even in vedas, it say that those who worship such things are in DARKNESS...So to come out of such DARKNESS ... the idols or man made god worshipers should try to know who is GOD and Y we need IDOLs to reach GOD...
God says he is near to any caller, there is no need keep any life less object and ask with it... in other sense U can call him by saying \O the one who put soul in me, who gave life to me ...Guide me.No doubt his help will come to those who trust him... Try it."
