true

"Pounding the world like a battering ram.
Forging furnace for the final grand slam.
Chopping away at the source soon the course will be done.
Leaving a trail of destruction thats second to none."

Second to none

I just wish we could abolish religion for good. The world would be a much better place to live in.

Aye, religion, in my opinion, has had its time and we need to move on. Doesnt need to be abolished though, we can still learn alot from how it influenced us for good or bad, it just shouldnt be forced on people at a young age so they can make their own decision when theyre old enough to understand all the concepts involved.
I think this way alot of people will just abandon it.

Religion will never go away, and theres no way to abolish it. Nations have tried it, and they've failed miserably. Religion makes people happy and gives them hope. Theres probably an evolutionary reason that makes religion favorable to the survival of our species. If you take an introductory course in religion, one of the first question that comes up is which came first, society or religion? Could civilization have formed without religion, or at least a basic belief in the afterlife? And studies have shown people who are religious and who pray and attend services tend to live longer lives, have stronger immune systems, and more effectively battle life-threatening diseases.

I still think abolishing it would save far more lives than keeping it around will.

Hey no one said I did not believe in God....geez it was a joke
I just don't accept organized religion because they take what they want from the bible for their own gain...say like bombing little kids in Iraq...hmmm do you think Jesus would use an AK 47 or surface to air missle....oh no he would use that star wars satellite thingy LMAO

religion is in your heart not in a church with an old guy shouting at you...

I'm confused (really) If all the bad shit in the world proves that God doesn't exist. What does all the good shit prove????

That people have good in them... :confused:

Why would you possibly need a God for good things to happen??? All that tells me is that you have a very weak, sheepish, conformist mind.

thanks E. loved the art....I teach art...your's is good whats your background?

yeah, just like abolishing weed has stopped people from smoking it.

anyway, i agree that much religion nowadays is dogmatic and close-minded, but that doesn't make the idea of a creator, or a binding force, or SOMETHING, totally irrational. expand your thinking. dont believe that what you see with your eyes is all that exists. thats what drugs are for.

besides, religion is not always founded on fear. its just how people handle it that fucks it up. christianity, for example, was founded on ideals of love, forgiveness, and truth... what's so bad about that? buddhism and hinduism, they still have nothing to do with close-mindedness or oppressing their beliefs. they are extremely open, pure religions - if you could even call them religions. hindus dont like being called hindus(the british made up the word hindu) because it implies separation from everyone else.

k im brainwashed..........everyone seems to think so :(

But we'll all find out the truth one day. Cant hide from it, ya know that day! Honestly I cant wait to meet Allah but one day. Right now im just getting ready for it and doing good things. Praising only Allah!

Nuuuu i decided not to be Homosexual anymore because I do think god made man for women and women for man, but that doesent mean ppl werent born gay cuz pplz could just be born like that. And cuz i dun need a bitch...(my bf is sensitive enough ne wayz) i have my own pms to deal with mine and my moms :mad: Also cuz i lovez my sexi azn! I still look i look everyday! I just cant touch! :D

.......ready? touch your mouses everyone....i SAID YOUR MOUSE and repeat after me....

[FONT=Century Gothic]"'Lo faccio per vedere
Se verra la fortuna
(O sfortuna) in casa mia.'"

("'This I do that I may see
If good (or bad) luck will come to me!'")


"' 'Tis not lead which here I throw,
But evil fate, that ye may know,
E'er the spell of fate be o'er,
Peace and fortune all the more!')

'In the name of heaven,
Of the stars and moon,
I pass away this trouble
For better luck and soon!')

Thou who didst cause this trouble,
Bear it away from me!')

("O blessed Fire,
Thou who burnest so immensely,
Thou who warmest all mankind,
I pray thee to roll it well and burn it wisely
lets smite this thread for all mankind
Anyone smoking it with me be blessed!") :D

wanted one good exorcist...experience preffered, but doesn't need to be engraved in stone, bring your own herbs....

Most people never pray or even think about God unless they they need something from him (selfish reasons) if I were him that would kind of piss me off too.
