Religion And You

Rating: 5.0


No one Bible, Torah can interpret the Koran.
After all, they all are just books-men not women wrote these books,
and if they had they are delivered to you by other men
and did not just fall from the sky.

And, it's true.
But by what you from them quote,
don't let another judge for yourself.
You are either good or evil, the whole concept of
most if not all make mistakes that are hard to live with?

Religion without question, is doubt.
Will a sentence written by other people to blind to see make you believe.
It's whole purpose is if control.
Why do you need it?
Right and wrong don't you know?
Does not your existence make sense.

Also, to become human,
in the face of it all.
Do you need to be told,
that the future more or less is what religion you are.
And one more thing-and about your itelligence and religion.
It should be at odds - the more knowledge that you have
the less religious you should become.

i see there is SOME doubt in your mind as to the gender of the writers of the books. are you sure they were humans? it is true, James, that as i got 'old enough' to make my own decisions about more than which jelly bean color/flavor to choose, i drifted away from religion, starting in my teens and ending in total non-religiosity by age 20.
