I havent writen on here in ages…… But you dont care….
I just have been to busy with doing nothing to write here. I really havent done a whole lot since my last post….
I must say thanks to whoever wrote the one word comment for this blog, which reminded me that I had to write….
I watched “Root Of All Evil?” today. Its a doco about god vs rational thinking. Asking if we would be better off without religion, and if religion even has a place in this day and age.
My answer is no. Every war that you can remember was fought, at least in some part, over religion. Someone thinking what they believe is right and that everone else should believe it too, no matter what.
Its bullshit.
Look at the evidence. Evolution, carbon dating, fossials etc etc. There is just so much that stacks up against religion. Like according to the Bible, the world was created about when man was going through the agracultural revolution.
The world has been around for more then 10,000 years. Its 4.6 billion. Accept it.
That said, I do believe that religion once had a part in sociaty.
In the last 2,000 years we have, socially, educationally, scientifically, medically and in just about every other way.
Around the time that the religion was “created”, there were laws, but loose ones. People would do things that werent right.
“People, if they can do something benifical for them selves, and there is no reprocusion, will generally do it.”
The religion, when we were in a more primitative state, gave us rules and a reason, a scary reason, to follow them.
Hell
People were told if they were good they would go to Heaven and if they were bad they would go to Hell. Before this people could steal, kill or adulterate etc etc, and get away with it realitivly easy.
“God” gave them something universal to be afraid of. Some one who was always watching….
But we have evolved past this.
We need to leave behind this foolish “faith” that causes conflict the world over.
Mainstream ”religions” are fundimentaly the same.
Cant you fools see that?
