No Religion

If we had a world with no religion, then a lot of things wouldn't have happened. It's a very big and very good point Richard Dawkins makes in his book The God Delusion. Though I have not yet read through it entirely, he's already got it into my head that we would be better off without believing in things like gods and higher powers.

If religion didn't exist, then 9/11 would never have happened. There would be no polygamy to deal with, no 'In God We Trust' and no Pledge of Alligance to that piece of cloth we call the American flag. An Atheist I am right now. Don't say I won't change later, but praying to God on a hospital bed isn't going to save me.

No, sir. Religion cannot save any of us. It's only going to cause more problems, kill us quicker. Why, our government is so pointed to God. Every dollar bill says 'In God We Trust' and why do we have 'God Bless America' as a patriotic song. What about those who don't believe in God. What about people like me and possible people like you?

Point to the sky, there's just clouds and outer space. No, I'm sorry, but God isn't up there or around us. Yes, I have faith. I have faith in people. Yes, I believe. I believe in things like love, people, and that the Mets will someday win a World Series. Do I look to God for this help. No. I look to myself, I look at others, and I look at the world around me. I see no God.

God cannot save us. Neither can religion, like I said before. I'm not trying to be so against religion though, because I respect what you all believe, but I'm just making a point that scientifically, God does not exist.

There is no proof that God or any higher power like God created us or anything around us. Evolution is what happened folks. Nothing more.

Sure, I might not make sense at all, but I mean get real. It's going to take a lot more than a bible or holy scriptures to make me believe in any religion.

In religion like that, I see destruction. Some people might consider Atheism a religion, and so it might be, but you all know that I'm talking about God and higher powers. Whether it's God, Allah, Yahweh, ect, it's all the same.

While some morals are good from believing in stuff like that, it doesn't always point us in the right direction. The Catholic religion says that same sex marriages and couples and relationships are bad. I'd STRONGLY disagree with that. If religion didn't exist, that stupid idea of homosexuals are bad would never exist!!!

God (and other higher powers like Him) are also teaching us wrong things. Too many political systems are based on this and it's tearing our world apart. There is nothing wrong with same sex relationships. Only because of religion, it is looked down upon. In some other dimension, on a different path, with no religion, same sex marriages would exist along with different sex marriages.

Perhaps it's just me. I'm the kind that likes to find ways to rebel. I'm the kind that will still do when someone says don't. That's just who I am. And you can't change me.
