Please don't misunderstand me and label me as an atheist ! My point is when God has created Humna beings, Animals, plants, Fiss, birds, micro organisms etc and provided enough of facilities for their survival, in the form of balanced eco - system, where every living thing is getting food to eat and place to live, Why only the Human being is going to Temples, Churches or to the Mosque to thank the God when otherscreatures they don't do it? They are still surviving and enjoying their life without attending any places of worship or by not doing any formal worshipping! After all they are also having life like us!
What makes man different from the other creatures of the world, Has God created Human being as a special creature?
Can anybody please explain me ? Thanks!

good question...!!..God created human beings...we are saying god is everywhere in this world..so animals dont go to the temple.God creatd us but didn't created temple to worship him..it is a place which created by man for him worship..When man started to think,work....,he need seperate places for different things he do..for example to work,he created office..Finally he need peace and want to be with god..Hence he created a new peaceful place called TEMPLE..it is the place for man to communicate with God..but i'm having a doubt...There are so many temples,churches,mosques etc..but people are going to some particular temples mostly ...!wat is the reason for it..?

I agree with you.Humans are mentally and intellectually smarter than other animals.So they created temples for religious group activties and prayer.People usually visit temples close to their places.They feel more confident with femiliar places.
People also visit famous temples hoping some miracle would happen in their lives.I also believe in that.Good or bad universal beliefs do have value.

It might be possible that God has created Human beings, but one thing is for sure that Human beings only have created the God ! And that too as per their conveneience and purpose they have attributed various qualities to him, so that the heads of the religious heads can have an upper hand on the Society in the name of God! If God is one then why so many different places of worshippings, like Temples, Mosques, Agyari, Churches etc? That too why there are again so many number of temples, churches etc to pray the God! Can't one pray God at any place? Think about the people who never get an opprtunity to visit a Temple or Church, does it men that his/her prayers are not channelised to God? I feel these things are purely man made and are exploited by the religious heads for their benefits along with the strong Social and economical fifures for their vested interests!

I think Animals, plants, Fish, birds don't understand math either. They don't go to school, Don't pay the bill, and buy soap to clean their self on the market or cooks meals! Aren't they?

the entire creation consists of five elements ie.,earth water sun eather and air. the nature is itself god. hence all the trees,plants,birds animals and all micro organisms born live and die in the nature itself. the man who does not believe in nature will go to temple,mosque or church only for his belief but not to pray the nature.prayer to the nature is worship to god whatever name it may be. the five elements are the god and except man every creatiuon is in nature and can live happily rather than man

It is said that Human is a social animal whereas normal animals are not the case. They don't have marriage system, dating system, school, separate toilet and like wise whereas man has everything that kind. The big difference is man can think and other animals cannot use their mind. Other animals react to the situation whereas man is the only social animal who can think and create his/her own situation. That's the reason why man today can fly like bird, swim like fish and all.
That's the reason why man created society and started living systematically like go to school for study, go to church/temple/mosque to pray etc.
That's the reason why animals don't go to churches, mosques and temples like human beings.
