Are you people so obsessed with hating Christianity that you ignore the birth of humanity? |

Except we wouldn't be, would we? |

Meaningless? Some of these answers, even when incorrect, are pretty meaningful to some people. Is truth all that matters? What about personal truth? |

Without religion I can only assume we would have progressed much further than we have as a species and would be divided along slightly different lines. |

That figment of her imagination was something she shared with the people from her church. So she could socialize easier with them and feel more connected with them. They helped her to have faith in something to empower her. Does it really matter what it is from this perspective? As long as it's not harmful. Or do you think that religion is harmful? |

I suppose you didnt explicitly state it, but the tone of your response just made me feel that way. |

Things are not as they seem
This is a bit ridiculous. I don't think you know what language is. Language is much more subjective than you're aiming to make out here. There are lots of different definitions of spirituality. Everybody has their own personal understanding of the word. Yours I quite like. It doesn't mean he doesn't know what spirituality means, just because you decide you do. Don't be so arrogant as to think your personal definition of the word is somewhat universal. |

Jujutsu is the gentle art. It's the art where a small man is going to prove to you, no matter how strong you are, no matter how mad you get, that you're going to have to accept defeat. That's what jujutsu is.
We would have political and scientific excuses, which we already do as well right now. |
