Why religion doesn't exist
Ask yourself why you are asking yourself. Therein lies your answer to everything.
Nothing is a mystery. (just needs time to unravel)
Nothing is unexplainable. (just needs time to answer)
Live your life, not your afterlife.
'Now' is precious. 'Then' can wait.
Everything else is moot. Dead is Dead.

Don't worry, that's a great sentiment, succinct and to the point. And in essence, this is truth.

^yup, what meesha said
Foremost, I'm for plain ol spirituality. Its sad people actually believe that without religion, the world would be some '"hell" on earh' or simply a planet 'down in spirit', pretty neat paradigm to propagate in an already messed up world huh? I usually hear [from religous standing], "imagine what the world would be like w/out religion", its like, "thats what I was going to ask you." Religion is just a spiritual government. Put on an image that is desired by the majority [mostly its 1 of good cause], display and spread word of the positive effects [charity], ignore and hide all the negatives [psychosis, religous wars] which lie in a bigger picture, broader scale, right under your fukn nose.
Lastly, one [sick religous fukk] might say, its toleration of eachother's religious beliefs that will lead us to unification. Yeah right, this coming from someone who believes I will eternally suffer in an inferno for not accepting their "god", please.
like they say, it divides

The fact remains that a plurality of religions will always cause strife and division. If a person believes to his core that only HE will be saved along with the people who share his exact beliefs, while everyone else on Earth is damned to eternal damnation, people of different creeds can never peacefully co-exist for any length of time, sharing equal rights and liberties.

If there were two survivors who lost all memory, they would have no religion. If they had kids they would have to tell them that they don't know what happens when they die so you are going to have to wait and find out. I think religion is the root of evil in the world. Fuck the stereotype of the agnostic and atheists whom get criticized over not believing or not knowing whether or not there is a god. I think the world would be better off without religion. Look at the crazy muslims, and the christians.:D except I do like christmas.
Just because there may not be just one religon that's right doesn't mean there isn't a God. Maybe all religons were started by god. Think of it as one of them spider web diagrams that you used in school. With the main circle in the middle and sub circles leading from that. God is in the main circle in the middle that created the entire universe. Then the sub circles leading from it are the religons that lead to God who could be real. So instead of one religon being right all religons are a path to God.
