That's what I think too. They make it happen themselves.

Honestly, we don't need to stoop down to insults, no matter how sarcastic. Some people will take it quite seriously, as an act of offence to their religion.

well, I seriously think Jesus would be very disappointed with with the way some people have interpreted his teachings. It becomes as simple as that SNL espisode where the only comfort Christ finds during Christmas is when watching the Charlie Brown Christmas special, and seeing that a CHILD truly understands the meaning of Christmas, and Christianity in general, while society is just concerned with using his teachings for their own personal game.

Fanatics and greed have basically ruined the idea of relgion for some people, which is tragic to say the least.

"The Debate Thread"... but I didn't do it on purpose... and I can't see why anyone would start a thread like that on purpose... it just makes people mad and hurts their feelings... so Lucipher, this is not a good way to start on the forums...:fuzwink: Too late now...
If this thread hurts peoples feelings then that is exactly why i started it i just like to add colour in my life.

Maybe I shouldn't post in this topic yet because I haven't read half of it yet. .. *is too tired. Will read it when he's more awake* But let me just say this:

After a bit of thinking I did a while ago about existance, as a result of a conversation I was having with my girlfriend, I relaised that one of the main reasons religion exists is because people need something to live for - A reason for thier existance, and the existance of the things around them. A reason to live. It's what keeps people going.
There are very few people who can face the fact that our existance may be completely and totally pointless.

As for myself, I choose not to belive in anything. For me, life just exosts. It's here, infront of us all. But I don't really care about why it exists or why I exist.
All I live for is my friends, my family, and my pets. If I ever life for myself at any moment by keeping my life as fun and as happy as it possibly can be, is to stop me from going insane.
