Im not sure how to start this, or what to say, Its just something that has had me thinking, and pondering for the last few days
Religion, as you may know, is mainly belief. Belief in something that is, responsible for everything the world has to offer
Some people use religion to get away, it could be, an Abusive relationship, to prostitution, to just trying to make your life better, many things, and when they are tired of it, they run, and a lot usually find a church.
People use religion as an excuse, like Blaming stuff on Satan, I cant tell you how many times Ive heard this. They use religion so they can lie to themselves, tell themselves, Hey, Its not me doing it, its the devil.
And a lot of people are Religious because its what they know, its what they grew up learning, anything else would be confusing to them, and these tend to be the people, who in my opinion are rude Very rude For instance, a year ago in school, we were studying Islam, which I believe is something you should be grateful for, well. We had a speaker, and she was talking about the stuff, And I noticed how some people would laugh, or just give rude faces, because in their minds, they thought it was shit, that none of this was true, that it was all just.. Tainted, and to be honest it made me pissed, that they could be so disrespectful, I know they wouldnt like it if someone was like that when they were sharing their religion.
That leads me to my next point, What is it causing all of the mayhem in our world, what causes wars, deaths, Most of you would say hate, Well, hate doesnt just form, you are taught to hate, by someone older or someone you look up to usually, and they were taught to hate, and so on So, we cant blame hate, we blame ourselves, But it was someone who made us this way, do we blame them, or the person that made them that way? There is no one to blame, But I do feel Religion, is the key point, they dont believe what you believe, so they are evil.
Once I heard my mom say USA was for Christians and thats what God wanted and I thought about that, and realized how sick it was. She was saying, God, The creator of all. God, goodness, anti-evil wanted the British to run in America, and slaughter all of the Native Americans, Kill the Hispanics, and get as much land as possible, I dont think so. She had it wrong I found that out soon, America was made for freedom of religion, believe what you want, and to be happy, and now youre not allowed to bring a bible into public buildings. Religion is causing hate, a lot of it...
Ne of my friends at school, who were trying to prove a point to, she is one of those, Christians because its what she grew up knowing, and she is highly religious, like for instance, shes fasting, from entertainment for 2 months... And we asked her why, and she said it will bring her closer to god . I dont get that, and I asked her how that would bring her closer, and she couldnt answer, I proved my point to her, and I told her that .. Then I hear, I have an answer, but you wouldnt understand it. Which this answer was amusing and I told her I know more about Christianity then she might think And this is what really gets me, she says, But Im a higher level Christian than you So, apparently Christianity has levels, Like its a game And every time she brings up something religious, We ask her how or why and she cant answer, she says its because we wouldnt understand, But I think Its because she doesnt
Heh, I have a lot more to say, but tired of writing, maybe there will be a part 2 soon.

Just because some religious people can't give answers, doesn't mean religion lacks them.
Also, one has to keep things in context.
In real Christianity absolutisms are impossible, so most fundamentalists are just close-minded bigots.
Hopefully the terms I use aren't too difficult for you, but always keep in mind that religion is natural and in a century like ours faith is important despite the peril it can bring in its abuse.
but that's man, not god, so blaming religion in itself is pointless.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. How could I forget? Sasuke says all he needs to say by not saying anything at all in regards to Sakura. So naturally that means everything when we take the pairing perspective on this. ~jin-desu
