Late post.
It's okay, I wasn't offended. I respect your opinion and we're all diferrent and blah blah blah... Y'll know if I continue it's gonna be another cheesy 'I respect others' lecture thing :P -
True. I honestly dont follow any religion and especially dont like the side effects. But we're all in this life together, and I dont care what you believe as long as it makes the trip worth while for you.

I don't get religions. Who started them?

There are different reasons different religions were formed. Some of the older ones were told by villiage wise men who needed to explain something they didnt know the answer to. Alot of the ones we see today were started because one country needed to be more recognized than any of the others. So if their leaders were considered the children of "God" they would be more feared and respected. And alot of the more recent ones were just because they made sense and people agreed with them.

Just curious, have you always been Athiest? Were you ever curious about God if he was real or not?

I was raised by a catholic family. Put in a private catholic school until 3rd grade. The school was closed down because the principal lied about the student count. The entire time I was there, I did more research than anyone else at my age and no one could answer any of my questions. None of it made sense to me and I never liked the idea of a super natural being deciding my fate. When I got out of private school I tried to do research at my public school but they forbid me to because at public school, religion isnt allowed. I searched into that and found out how many other beliefs there were than the one I had been forced to follow. I studied them and found that they all were very different and all had different idea's behind them. I figured that they all cant be right, and if one of them was right, like the christian god, why hasnt this supreme being simply made everyone follow him. Simply saying, he's testing us, is such a closed minded belief. Because if you think god has made other religions so that he may test you, then that also means he has willingly damned millions of people to hell, just so he could see if you'd fall. That isnt right. So if god didnt put other religions on earth to "test us", wouldnt that mean that somewhere along the line, someone decided to make something up? And as soon as i realized that, I realized that almost everything that a religion is anymore has been made up. Because all through history different people have always been claiming to be the hand of god and all through history people have been changing the book of god. Therefore, I figured that the original book itself, like all its predicessors, was a forgery.
I realized this about all religion. It is all a falsification made by humans to excercize some tiny control over others. After I did some more research, I found out that there was one belief, one golden belief that not only could I understand, but that answers all of my questions. Something that has never let me down and that I can identify in the world around me without a shadow of a doubt. Science was my religion. Science could answer things that no religion could answer. Science made sense. And so I followed what I knew was right. I became what made sense to me. I abandoned my forced beliefs in a magical wizard that lives in the sky, and I took up chemistry, and biology, and physics. Things that not only actually existed in the world around me, but could aslo explain the world before me, and myself better than any "god" ever could. That is why I'm an athiest. I found what I believed in. -
Really though, even if there is nothing out there and every living creature just becomes some rotting sack of bones and there is no glory after death, there really isn't much point in anything.
I mean really, if we all just rot, there's no point in all this s--- in the world. We could just sit here and realize all this amazing talent we have is for NOTHING. We could give all the credit to some "luck of the draw!" I believe some "magical wizard in the sky" is more likely to happen than that, but oh I'm only a pile of bones, I can't do anything but mix some chemicals together!
I do realize that was probably offensive and mocking you guys in some way, but the belief that all we have is science just seems downright pessimistic to me.
Basically what I'm trying to say is if there's nothing out there but some stars and planets we really have nothing to live for. -
