Atheism Vs. Religion

[munzter666]

---

We need to have a religion in the very beginning of our lives. Kay siguro if wala ta religion, Atheist ta karon.

i beg to differ.

some people need CRUTCHES.

some people doesnt really need the CRUTCH, but feels comfortable with it.

and some people are better off without this CRUTCH.

the CRUTCH, called religion.

and is being an atheist a bad thing?...hmmmm technically it is a bad thing..in a religious perspective pero does that stop me from being productive to society?..well in terms of religion based businesses i can't contribute for sure..pero dha rman cguro..as what other religious fundamentalists say..once i stop believing in god i cease to respect my own parents..hmmm that's kinda hard to believe

one point for atheism...im on this side

[NASYO]

atheism = hep!! hep!!
religion = hoorraay!!

extremes go together. you can be at the center but leaning to one side.

but the problem with CRUTCHES is...

those people using CRUTCHES will eventually feel "hey, why aren't you using one? you need this one fool".

...and in certain occasions, those that dont need CRUTCHES will eventually say "you dont need those crutches really"

so as the saying goes, "stupidity is not a handicap, park somewhere else"

If I will rephrase it, "You should believe what I believe", is it similar?

Sounds selfish if it do.

What matters is the thing you do, not the belief you hold

note, i said the problem with...cause thats how disputes/misunderstanding usually begins.
who else are obliged with the "spread the word" ploy? then if told, "nah, sorry i dont buy it". instead of walking away, they do sometimes insist. there goes the sermon, there goes the threats hellfire. there goes the harbinger of fear.

anyway, the point really was to each hi/her own. this world wasn't meant for __________(put your religious affiliation or lack of one here)

Crutch or no Crutch...you are what you do, when it counts.

Religion is for those who don't want to go to hell. Spirituality is for those of us who have already been through it.
