Im taking my mind....freeing "it" from all prejudices and spoonfed information and will then proceed to observe the people around me.
Religion - the supporters of this belief system claim that this is the product of the force of moral good wherein disputes relating to religion accounts for more deaths than all the deaths from the great world wars combined...all these killings done in "his" name.
I know for a fact that this world would have been much much much much more peaceful without religion, and i believe that it is not a prerequisite to morality and order.
God - a superhuman construct that the humans worship and beg for special favors, imagine an invisible friend for adults (and "spoonfed" children alike).
Points :
If your parents are catholics....then youll be raised as a catholic, the belief will be spoonfed to your young, open mind.
If your parents are buddhists...then youll be raised as a buddhist, the belief system will also be spoonfed to your young open mind.
You'll be so engrossed with your "faith" that you are even willing to take it to the death with you.
If your parents are buddhists then youll most likely be a buddhist too, and wouldnt give a damn about this "Christ" that you call as the son of "God".
Alas the faithful will say : "It doesnt matter what religion you have, we all worship but one and the same God!"......say that to the polytheists.
Again the faithful will say: "The different Gods the polytheistic religions worship are but different forms of one and the same God much like the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit...entities we Christians believe in." ........errhmm any Pagan will tell you that they are worshipping different Gods not one and the same God in different forms...duh.
People, people...realize by now that the only reason you believe what you believe in is because the information has been spoonfed.....start from scratch...open up your mind.
