Anti Religion anyone share a similar view?


This is fad started long time ago to explain any thing that could not be.
As science becomes more advanced religion starts to look even more foolish.
I still cant believe how many people eat this stuff up.
all religions sound like some crazy fairy tale some way crazier than others.
But all the same. People eat this shit up thinking they will have some great after life.
Most peoples concept of Heaven is the biggest joke. Why would any one soul or energy need a place based on physical needs. Why would any one great powerful unknown entity want to waste its own energy making you happy or suffer for eternity based on some pointless activity you have done on one little planet in the entire universe.
An infinite universe countless galaxies and most humans think it was just created for them. talk about over rating your self.
When you die you will be come nothing more than some food for worms and bacteria.
Religion is the root of countless pointless deaths.
People have only one known life and they give it up for some BS belief of a great after life.

I am not saying for sure there is no greater entity(s) in the universe.
I just think humans pull illogical shit out of their asses to make them selves feel less inferior. Most want to feel like their life is more important than it really is.

I dont believe in god as a 'being' but i do believe in the power of faith. Any religion can be a good thing in certain doses. I DO NOT believe in these religions that justify the killing of innocent people! to me that is not a religion it is a cult.

I am CofE but i dont go to church or anything like that. I dont want to 'not' believe incase when i snuffs it i go to hell or something. I like to keep an open mind but i definately favour science.

Not all science is true

Barely skimmed this thread but I'll chime in.

Religion is good as long as it has a respect and tolerance for other religions.

Its VERY bad when it excludes people who arent in that religion. When it has some opposition to people marrying when they are of a different religion. When it pushes away others who arent in that religion.

Hinduism is the perfect religion as far as I'm concerned.. I think it just may be the religion for me.

The sad thing is when fanatics use a religion and corrupt its ideals to the public.
Islamic terrorists for example.

Perform all actions before God *allah in this case*
Assholes will use that excuse to kill in the name of Allah, but any REAL muslim will tell you thats not acceptable. Thats the thing with this war, these terrorists don't speak for a nation, but are in reality a few jack holes who are trying to ruin shit for everyone.

I think that's one of the theories of Judaism's 'Chosen People' concept. You do have to wonder that if Hitler adopted that theory for his Aryan Master Race, since Hitler had bastardized a lot of stuff, such as the Manji that was used by Buddhists for eons, but reversed for the party flag.

Judaism has a lot going for it though. It has no concept of afterlife and believes in the Mitzvahs, so its constituents understands that we are here for the long haul, and that each individual should perform Mitzvahs to bring people out of destitution, hardship, and live amongst each other as a coherent community, as the saying goes, "It takes a Village."

Emile Durkheim also postulated that this is one of the reasons why Judaic constituents have the lowest suicide rate in the world, because there is nothing to look forward to after death.

I;ve read that it's not based on the Manji but on some old crosses that existed in in the Germany's Faux history.

For god's sake, the S.S. was supposed to be a revitalization of the Tutonic Nights.

I don't Like The Evangelicals that won't leave me alone.
I don't mind Athiests.
I can't stand Agnositcs they are just Evangelical Athiests.

Relgion is a great thing but it should encourage sketicism and meaningfull debate.

I get really nervous when debate is considered Blasphemy.

I didn't like the time I went to the black pentacostal church. Everyone started talking in touges and rolling in the Isle. I
t freaked me out. I felt even more guilty that I went back. I only was there to watch the "freak show" one more time. I should not have been mocking the parishinors in my head, but it was just too damn funny.

Normally I don't comment on putdowns, but this one tickled my funny bone because Dick Cheney actually did utter those very profanities, and it was splashed onto the newspapers everywhere.

sounds crazy i thought of starting my own type of religion.
The basic belief is the use of good judgment to have a good or better life.
This Works with the instinctive good morals than any normal human has.
Most religions use the threat of hell as the reason to behave correctly.
And use heaven as the reward for living a good kind life.
Also they teach if you plant “seeds”(give money to the church) you shall be rewarded in your living life. Cough cough bull shit…!
That type of thinking is all backwards.
you have people doing the right things for the wrong reasons.

She has a man defend her :lol: priceless.

EDIT: I don't belong to any religion but i have my own beliefs.

PS: Why would hell be so bad? Eternal pain wouldn't be so bad, you probably would get used to it and become some hard ass mofo while all the residence of heaven are pampered little wussies. The only reason we fear pain is because it entails death. If you're already dead why would pain be so bad. Are you gonna die again or what?

I really do not think that you have a broad spectrum understanding of religion.

The Bible never speaks of an actual Hell. And as far as planting seeds. The correct translation of planting seeds, is showing people God's word. Planting a Seed. Money in Christiandom is used improperly all the time. People who make a living off of religion are bad, bad, bad. Jesus accepted shelter and food, but was never paided to preach.

People who live a good life, and try to live up to God's standards, will be rewarded with life everlasting. God did not create the world for nothing. God's original purpose was a paradise earth, but Adam and Eve were given free will and they blew it. Jesus spoke of a ressurection. Look it up for yourself.

I don't think that he has a broad spectrum understanding of anything (and he probably doesn't understand what you mean by "broad spectrum" anyway).

I believe it was Carl Sagan who said it but People created a "God of the Gaps". It was a way for them to be able to understand the world and how it works in simple terms.

These days religion isn't really that necessary because of our knowledge and science. If it helps you be a better person then go for it but don't tell other people what to believe.

that's also great advice for the chuckleheads who try to push their "Religion isn't real" philosophy on everyone.

Science tells you how the world is created? Great -- sensational. Does it tell you WHY we're here? No...not yet, anyway. Some people aren't content to work a 10 hour day, then come home and watch 'must see tv' until they get sleepy, wake up and do it again. They want to find some meaning to it all beyond blind consumerism. A lot of those people look to the various religions of the world for possible answers. I appreciate it when they don't try and force what they believe onto me, but that works both ways.

Whether religion is real or not i think it's a great way to live your life by. Sort of a code of conduct if you will. Do unto others as you would have done unto yourself, shit like that.
