I kind of went away from Christianity for many reasons. One being that people are bred to believe the Christian values. Kind of like in Brave New World, they're born to believe societies ways. It seems as though most people who go to church, either shouldn't be there in the first place because it's pointless for them or they go because they feel they should go. This is a big issue for me because I live in a rich white neighborhood where image is everything. If people don't see you at church they begin to wonder.......
To be honest with ya'll, I just dont' know yet if God exists. I've always been told he exists by church or what not, but NOTHING in my life explains his existence. Maybe one day I'll find the path I was meant to walk, but I'm just living life as of now .
IMO, there's truth and happiness. You can be a very religious person, which is a commitment. I believe it's a jaded view on how things are, but faith produces happiness. Then there's the way of truth, which just says that there is nothing there. I'd like to believe there is a heaven, but I honestly don't think it exists. I think mellow mood made an awesome point by saying that humans created religion to explain the unexplainable. I think that's very true. If I was to become a Christian again, i'd probably be a Deist. That's the way I was steering.
