I guess living in Northern Florida might be a little bit different then a lot of places as far as religion goes, you see in the south east we have a ridiculous amount of Baptists.They have pretty much taken over downtown in Jacksonville, the Baptist church mostly owns section of city blocks. It's out of control how they could spend millions and millions basically keeping Jacksonville from becoming a more urban city, but as long as the Baptists own downtown, it's not going to happen.Another topic, it's wierd, it's like every family starts out going to church and everyone seems to just fizzle out of it, when i was young i went to church and bible study every week, played in the youth band, but i never seemed to really feel passionate about any of it. I have a lot of friends that kind of did the same thing, it seem like everypne just goes because thats what they are told to do, especially in a country thats been ran by republicans recently, it's what a good god loving american would do right? Screw that, it seems like most people with a ollege education these days are starting to think for themselves and realize a lot of religion is just another business oppurtunity sucking everything good from religion out. I mean granted christianity teaches good morals, do't cheat, don't hurt people, share, things like that, i agree be a good human being feels good and everyone should be kind to one another, but i shouldn't have to drop, what is it 10% of my income to the church? FUCK THAT, they don't need another multimillion dollar arena or so that the hypocritical pastor can have a 500 thousand dollar house right behind it. This has turned into a rant, and i am not sure if it will even make sense to anyone
