When will people learn there's no god?
Yeah you are right, but I feel like so many people are needlessly wasting their time, and yes I know it's their decision, but I feel like people should realize that you should do good for people, not steal or kill, etc. But not because you're going to go to heaven or hell, but because those things aren't nice things to do.
I don't like seeing people like my grandmother who is in her early 70s and goes to church atleast 3 times per week. There's ice all over the driveway, etc. and she'll risk falling on it and braking a hip just because her mind is so made up that that's what 'god' wants. If I say anything to try and make her realize that maybe god isn't real and was made up a long time ago then she gets mad and changes the subject.
I ask my grandmother if it's fair that priests can't have sex (with women :thumbsup: ) and she just ignores the question or says something like, they don't have to be priests if they don't want to. There are some other things that she doesn't necessarily agree with, but because it's her religion she'll go out of her way. When I ask if she's researched other religions to ensure she's found the right now, her response is, "No I haven't because mine is the right one." Wow, that response shows intelligence.
I love my grandmother and I don't discuss this almost ever because I don't want her to think I'm evil or anything, but how could you not find fault in people getting their children into religion before they're old enough to make their own decisions, and then sticking to that religion without even researching other religions first just because your mommy and daddy 70 years ago told you that you were catholic?
Grrrrrr
