At the risk of being ridiculed. I will just say this: I do not beleive thay religion can hold any place in a civilized society. Something which claims to bring peace has lead to countless wars and brutality, massacres. Life is more valued in atheism.
The theoretical existance of god is something else. I just despise these name-brand religions and the hypocrisy which comes with them-the pope wearing gold jewelery and living in luxury not disimilar to a king and urging followers to reject materialism-the old testament of the bible pratically promoting stoning for minor crimes and saying that slaves should just resign to their fate. The old testament was later re-worded and twisted to suit changing needs and made more appealing BUT it states in the old testament that the bible is the word of god which is "PERFECT" so WHY would it need to be re-worded?
-PROOF that religion is a tool for the control of people-Holy wars and the fact that jesus was meant to return to earth in the year 1000ad (Y1K), but never showed leaving alot of people rather dissapointed on a mountain.
Science and technology, which is at the HEART of civilization conflicts with the bible, in almost every way. On the first page of genesis it is stated that god craeted the heavens and the earth. Scientific evidence and theory suggests that the universe was created in a cycle, which involves the universe compressing together, until all the matter is compressed to a near microscopic size, the exploding outwards, the universe's edges expanding at the speed of light, until eventually they slow and begin to compress the universe again, continuing the cycle. Scientific fact tears down religion.
How can we be the 'children' of god when we are directly related to primates? Are primates also the children of god? Apparently not because animals 'don't have souls'. That must mean that we don't have souls either and are animals which is at the base of atheism. If you would still have 'faith' knowing this then you must keep in mind that you don't have a soul, when you kill it's an innocence, and you WON'T go to heaven when you die.
im not trying to start anything, but is it so illogical that the universe was created in the way that you stated, except that God made that happen? and animals(not 'humans') do have souls, just not in the same way. they dont have the capacity to beleive in or understand religion so they automatically go to heavan. this is my, and many others take on christianity, and im not posting this to debate religion, i just wanted to present an alternative side.
