...that there are actually people that follow organized religion. You cannot organize something as beautiful as spirituality and then put rules on it. The god of my understanding is simple, caring, understanding, and really could give a fuck 1/2 whether or not you follow some standardized set of fucked up guidelines set by man in the first place! People have wars and die over some bullshit principles created by men that don't and have never worked in the first fucking place. Religion is what always scares people from finding their true spirituality and mark my words, organized religion will be the downfall of intelligent human existence as we know it. |

I agree. But i don't think religion will be the downfall , just plain igonrance. The fact that we still drive cars that use gasoline for example scares me. |

the fact that there are activists against carbonated beverages scares me. I agree that religion is just an example of ignorance, or maybe an escape from life for truly weak people, but all of the power religion has over people is what makes me thing it will bring us down evntually. |

How do you spread the goodness of a God without organization? |

Hm... religion is such a bad word. Brushing my teeth isn't a religion. I do it every day, and I'm very religious about it, but I don't worship my toothbrush, nor do I meditate on the wonders of toothpaste. Obeying traffic laws is something we are all forced to do, yet the Ever Present and Powerful Speed Limit does not play a part in my emotions. Little rules and habits that are a part of religion can be quite good. It doesn't surprise me that the rules of [my] religion are basically common sense. It also doesn't surprise me that my religion is quite UNorganized. Orderly, yes... I need some kind of order, otherwise I'll go insane, and I don't need any help with that. But you don't see me acting like a zealous clone. That's my 2 cents on 'religion', and I'm sticking to it. |

I was about too probably really offend some people, but decided to erase the reply. I cant discuss religion, politics, philosophy. I passionately agree with the first thread. |

A revelation! I never thought about not being able to discuss politics because you didn't want to offend someone... I thought everyone hated politics. |

All religion is to me is a pain in the ass, because I have to wake up early every Sunday to go to church. I'm indifferent... if Christianity or whatever else gives someone faith, good for them. I don't follow my religion, I jerk off all the time, and I kill people. |

This is why I dont follow a religion...I figure if there is a God and he is as great as others say that he wont care that much what I've thought in my past and will be forgiving. |

Otherwise...I'd rather burn in hell...it sounds much more interesting. |

I'm still curious how anyone could go about spreading the goodness of some God without any organization? |
