idotn know who you are. but i would just like to say.. the idea of God in some religions is that there is free will to choose. if God forced us to love Him, then what would that be? it would ahve no meaning. so therefore, evil arises because we have the choice to do what we want to do.

Before you say it, I realize that these aren't teachings of the bible excetera but I feel the followers of certain religions have definately been pushing their beliefs on others. For a few examples, gay marriage, and abortion. I don't like any belief that teaches it's diciples that they have the right to impose themselves on others. Jesus sounds like he was a good guy with nice teachings but almost every sect with follows him has fucking up his and their god's teachings.

In Nixon's post, I wasn't trying to find sympathy, I was trying to defend myself from a blatant attack.
