...misplaced placebo.

There is one section in this forum that I don't frequent..
Although it is interesting to read, it just seems to me, that is always a clash of varied opinions.
( with much respect to the regulars in this section.. )
I find it "very opinionated".


But for tonight , wanting a little change, I wandered into the "Spirituality and Occult " section..

wandering ..wandering..
thread to thread..
hmm.. hmm..

I got interested in this certain thread about
"The Gospel of the Atheists"

lovely!.. isn't it interesting?!
it is .. it really is!

which got me thinking..atheism.?
what is it?

aside from the definition that wikipedia offers, what really is atheism .?!!

is it the belief "no GOD" ?
or the practice of having " no GOD" ?

confusing..

i wont argue.. let's leave that discussion to the atheists..

i'll take my own case.. I'm a catholic.
not the "churchy" type though.
but I have a full belief in GOD and that he is my supreme being.
I dont live by the "book". But I do my best to live morally. I respect the things around me..

Does that make me more of a person than an atheist?

NO...
hard as i try to live in "straight path" I am still a top sinner..

whheeeww... religion..
is always a "touchy " subject for me..
to each is his own belief..

one poster said this line..:


Religion is not the opium of the masses. Religion is the placebo of the masses


-----------


cant argue with that..
i dont take drugs.so I guess the placebo works for me..
