Chill dude - one thing that most people completely miss is that the REASON for religion is the belief that life can be better (somehow.)
I agree, life can be better. Santa Claus can bring us presents, the Easter Bunny can brnig us chocolate and the Tooth Fairy can bring us sixpences. But I don't htink that's a good reason for blind faith in any of those three, or in any other imaginary friends, once you're past childhood.
This is the basis for ANY religion, yet is almost never brought up by either religious nay-sayers or religious people themselves for some strange reason.
Here's the reason - religion usually make life worse. Look around at the world today. ---> BINGO!!!!!!! WOW!! Someone else realized this too!!! Look at all the killings in the world, ireland, Middle East, etc. If religion were taken out of the world completely, the world would be a VERY VERY peaceful place. Every time I look at CNN, there is someone dieing for their "God", or worse, killing other people for their "God".... Yah, something else would probaly rise up to be the thing that everyone kills everyone over if Religion were taken away.... That whole Balance in the Universe thing keeps coming up.... _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
