Religion?
It seem that most of the Human Race has some sort of Faith.
But the only down side to faith in my opinion is that just because I believe in my faith, does that make it real? And If someone else of another faith believes, not in my faith does that make his faith less than mine or his more than mine? Or are they the Same but different at the same time?
The only thing I dwell on sometimes about religions (of all different faiths) is that over eons, man or men have imprinted their 'freewill' on the interpretations of the written word.
Like in the way kids play that game called telephone, where the first kid tells the next kids in line a phrase, then that kid repeats that phrase to the next and so on and so on, and when you get to the end of the line the phase that kid says is different than the original.
I set as example as the way women are treated in different religions. Almost like a sub-species of human with no say in what the should believe in. To not eating 'meat' on Friday.
Please excuse the rant, but if you look at th written word in almost every religion, you can see a male point of view in the 'Word Of God'
Voted : It can be at times a definite curse
Read the "god delusion".
^ A good argument, spoilt only by Dawkins's rather patronising literary style.
Voted : It's a curse, and is invariably a whole heap of nonsense
I think there is a fundamental difference between belief and religion. Religion controls belief and manipulates it to suits its own ends.
"Magic of believing" !!!
Blissful ignorance, more like. Or how about "The warm, rosy feeling of wilful self-deceit"?
