Welll... see, religion is really hard to choose, because believe it or not, EVERY religion thinks their's is better. Personally? I don't have a religion. No, damn it, I'm not gothic, and I have nothing against people who are gothic. Religion is very hard to choose, I made my life a little easier by not making myself choose one right now, I have other things to think about... |

Well, for the record, in my exp as a Christian, I didn't care to think the status of other religions. I just knew I enjoyed it, and had no intention of appearing superior. That, my friends, is reserved for whatever skills and abilities I hold that exceed others! |

Just love and accept. Just surrender and let go. Let go of absolute truth. There, simple as that That's my religion right there. (well, sorta =P) ^_^ |

I fully agree with Lucius. Religion is insignificant when compared to simple values and decency. Striving to be agreeable and caring is the most important thing. |

It could just be my experience. Some people I know who claim to be "self-reliant" or "non-religious" are assholes underneath. I hope it's still possible. But my neighbor and his mom who say to follow the Dalai Lama "My religion is kindness" is bs, they yell and scream all the time with the whole family, total bs. |

I don't think the problem is religon per se, but the intellectual stubborness which it all too often engenders. While clinging to illogic in the face of reason isn't a symptom only of religion, it is in religion where such attitudes are fostered and in religion where they are most powerful. |

Super profundo on the early eve of your day
religion is a funny thing, sometimes it can be good for a cilization sometimes bad, like a reliogn that encourges sleflessness is good for the goverment due to state of nature without it, and a reliogon that sacfirieces ppl to gods, well that encourges vilolence and of course death |

In short, yes. |

personally speaking, sometimes it nice to abandon rational thought (within a rational framework). i happen to get great comfort from my belief in my goddess and my angel. |

I am an atheist. I love to debate religion with willing participants, but I am not out to convert anybody to atheism. I think that even though religion is the biggest problem in the world, it is also, paradoxically, necessary. It keeps a lot of people who would otherwise be really bad people in line. How many people have you seen make the point that religion is the only basis for morality? People who think like that are admitting that religion is the only thing that keeps them acting decent. I think people like that are common. I have seen a lot of people deal fairly well with death because of their religious beliefs. I have seen people talk about dying family members and then immediately start talking about God, looking relieved and hopeful. I have seen entire nursing homes singing Christian music while looking very serene, with the belief that they are about to spend eternity in a very happy and beautiful place. Unfortunately, religion is also what is behind the crazy situation my country is in right now, for many reasons. The Arab-Israeli conflict is a preposterous situation, and it is really screwing up the world. If God exists, does he want his children killing in mass numbers and royally screwing up his planet over who gets what gift from him? Disgusting. |
