\r\n \r\n Bible was written and interpreted by man.........
\nAlso my belief that organized religion is a form of a social acceptable cult if you will
\nand also that organized religion was designed to create a better society as a whole (fear of greater powers)..
\nJust my thoughts\r\n

\r\n \r\n "When you come to knowing God, the initiative lies on His side. If He does not show Himself, nothing you can do will enable you to find Him. And, in fact, He shows much more of Himself to some people than to others-' + '-not because He has favourites, but because it is impossible for Him to show Himself to a man whose whole mind and character are in the wrong condition. Just as sunlight, though it has not favourites, cannot be reflected in a dusty mirror as clearly as in a clean one." -' + '- C.S. Lewis

\r\n \r\n I consider myself a christian, I dont attend church on a regular basis and I struggle as Im sure most of us do but I try 2 do the best I can. I believe that there is a heven above and a hell below, but Im not going 2 try 2 argue the fact of the matter because who really knows, thats why its called faith. My take on it is if we are truly lucky we get 80 years or more on this earth, the one 1 thing 4 sure is that some day we r all gona die, whats 80 years compaired 2 an eternity! Now I know a lot of people my think that when we die that thats it, lights out nothing happens. Im not saying their right or wrong, but that seems like a big risk 2 take. If im wrong and there is no heven or hell and I die then what have I really missed out on. What if the people that dont beleive n God r wrong, is that worth the risk of eternity if there is something more? I dont believe that im going 2 live like a king in heven, but my soul is saved and like I said i do the best I can and I dont beleive I will b condemed 2 hell 4 that.\r\n

\r\n \r\n Religon was created as a way to unite people during times of unknowing conciousness when people had no idea why anything happened now it\'s just turned into outdated scripture and a money brainwashing machine.. People know what\'s rite or wrong and should fallow morals but those who don\'t it catches up. Karma is more my belief\r\n
