Well I don't really want to take a side in the whole religion debate but let me say that I am personally and atheist. That said, I can still appreciate that religion was (and still continues to be) a good way to motivate people to coexist with each other. The values that the catholic and christian churches teach are a good set of moral guidelines and without them the world would probably be a crappier place to live in.

So I guess what I am saying is that I agree with what you say but I still think religion is a good thing, if that makes any sense.

I'm on the same boat as you. I was baptized and raised a Roman Catholic. I went to CCD (basically Sunday school) all the way up until I was old enough to say no. I dropped out right before confirmation.

2 things that they did that made me leave and never look back. One day in CCD we all had to watch a catholic propaganda movie about how gay people are all going to burn in hell and how they invented aids and are the root of all evil in the earth. 2nd thing was that my priest always kreeped me out. Years later he had to resign due to the scandal surrounding his child molestation lawsuit... Fucking pervert.

But ya, I respect whatever path people chose to follow as long as they leave me out of it.

While I can see your point, blindeyehalo, you must think that there0 is something else out there.

I mean, The Big Bang Theory is the biggest load of bullshit.

Although saying a man who has always been around created everything sounds equally outrageous.

But look at it this way;

Look around, something made all this, and for a reason.

Things just don't occur without a cause. And I find it extremely hard to believe that all of this is an accident.

Think of miracles (trust me, sometimes there are miracles, you just have to look at things differently) think about luck and think about some things in this world that are truly too good to be true.

(Ready for gayness? Here we go.) Think about loving someone. Whether it be a girlfriend, boyfriend, father or friend. That feeling just goes to show you that if the world is accidental, that means those feelings are accidental.

Once again, there's no way something that real and warm is accidental.

Someone or something else is out there, maybe even here. But I know for a fact that this life isn't all that is in store for us.

You just need to be optimistic and keep an eye open to help notice some things that assure you that theres no way everything we know and see was made by a 'Big Bang.'


Think.

I bet you learned your name in under a week.

No?

I'll try underestimating you a little more.




And don't try insulting me back, you'll need the breath to blow up your date for tonight.
