it is hope that keeps the world in order, without this hope the world would turn into a spiral of death and despair. --FFX

all religion is is hope that when one dies, they have a reward for doing more "good" things in life than "bad", and a consequence for doing more "bad" than "good" no one knows what happens after they die, the only way to find out is die.


we can only speculate......

btw, im no philosopher.

Almost...

Many religions have a belief that if you believe in their deity (and usually a bundled messenger with him... ie Mohammed and Jesus) you will go to Heaven... others, like Hinduism believe you will be reincarnated again and again until you are just about darned perfect.. like in buddhism how they hope to one day become a buddha, which only a few people have obtained the title of...

Ready to recant your comment on the quote?
More anti church then. If he was a Christian then wasn't he about religion. Religion is being a Christian despite being tortured by a ridiculous church of the time. The topic title is Anti-Christian/religion quotes, which this is not. I was just saying. I'm glad you know your history though, that makes me feel better.

Religion is a social construct, with the Church being an established formal construct. Pot, kettle, black.

I beleive that if there is truly a heaven and a god, that as long as you are a good person, you will have your spot in heaven. I dont live my life for this goal or anything. I just have good morals and such...

And I also beleive the bible is a bunch of BS. Just a bunch of stories created to entertain a "people", which evolved into a story to control a population by fear of hell and heresy.

"Religions are all alike - founded upon fables and mythologies."
- thomas jefferson

"During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What has been its fruits? More or less, in all places, pride and indolence in the clergy; ignorance and servility in the laity; in both, superstition, bigotry, and persecution."
-james madison

"In no instance have . . . the churches been guardians of the liberties of the people."
- james madison


"This would be the best of all possible worlds, if there were no religion in it." [ in a letter to Thomas Jefferson]

"The divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover for absurdity."

---john adams

Where is our Almighty God?

High above our heads, watching over us?

Or hiding behind the shut eyes and deaf ears of mindless fools?


To assert that the earth revolves around the sun is as erroneous as to claim that Jesus was not born of a virgin."
[Cardinal Bellarmine, 1615, during the trial of Galileo]
