You say that your religion si private. I agree with the fact that there is in fact a greater power then us in this universe. But this doesn't have anything to do with this subject. I belive that we are weak and religion is a side effect of this weakness. It's ok to be weak because this so called "weakness" is what makes us humans, and makes us different from computers. I also think that we have a missunderstanding on the word "religion". In your opinion religion is a private feeling. I respect that. This means that the only difference between our opinions is that i don't want to call this "feeling" "religion". I don't know what i should call it, but i find that anything that comes from the world "religion" is dogmatic. Religion is "god", "church", "adam and eve", "sin"... and more in my opinion. But let me ask you a question. If say... one of your best friends die in an accident. What do you do ? Do you turn to god ? Or do you try to rationalize the problem ? I think that this makes the true difference between an atheist and a theist. | |
