Quite right. Religion is often abused for all kinds of things, that's why I don't like the church and similar institutions. You can just as well live by the same principles without going to a designated building for doing it, only that you avoid the risk of your faith being abused by the people who own the building.
Yea, that is a good quote. Simply it's kinda saying God will always tell you what is right or what is wrong. But you have decide whether to listen or not. And USMA you must be pretty adamant about it cause you wrote about the damn thing twice. :lol:
Religion drives people to do terribly, cruel things. The crusades, terrorism, televangelism, et cetera.
It is following a higher moral code, being a good person, that makes you a holy man. Not a cross on your chest, or a huge hat on your head. Doing the right thing puts you in God's good graces, living a good life. Doing evil deeds in His name won't.
Oh, and stop listening to punk rock. It's all bullshit.
people have used religeon for their own reasons since it was made. i would respect it much more if people under a religeon would not just blindly fallow their leaders.
USMA this reminds me of that thing going on right now. that crazy mormon leader who has a lot of fallowers. he uses religeon to control the people and use them. its sad.
i also would like to see religeon adapt to new knowledge. such as evolution and that the earth revolves around the sun. stuff like this should be integrated into religeon. but some people are just to stubburn.

Just be atheist and do things that you think are morally correct, cause some 2000 year book isn't a good source. A lot can change in 2000 years, but if something stays the way it is than it isn't a very good thing to base your whole life, vaule system, Sunday, etc. around. Just use a good moral code and if God exisists than he will let you go to heaven if it exisits. I don't really belive in either but I still have moral code.
I feel that having a strong religion, and being a good person go hand in hand.
I am Christian, and i do my best to be a good person, sure i joke around every now and then, and do my share of "bad" things. But all in all, its my religion that keeps me being a good person
