The problem I think is that religion is not realistic and you have to use effort to cling on to it. It is like a car going uphill, you switch off the engine and release the handbrake, you slide down.

When you have to face reality day in day out, the "beliefs" become "unreal" "nonsense" and you wonder why. The believers than try to renew their beliefs. The problem is that religion is unreal. It is better to simply face reality.

Dont mind me asking unker.Your name suggest you are a Christian but you speak with some Buddhism in you.Sometimes your ideas also macam free tinker but when you hantam people backside like as if you are a Sikh> Mr. Green I know that you are against gambling and careful with your money but I dont think you are a good jew.When people are fed up with you here they call you by many names like as if you are a Hindu but what are you? I didnt mention Islam cuz I didnt think you dare to potong either. Embarassed

If you must know, I would consider myself trans-logic... that is to say, I go as far as logic, rationality, and valid arguments take me and the place where logic, rationality, and valid arguments cannot go, I allow myself some beliefs. Laughing

atheism is the best lah.
No god. Just reality.

Kyndred SG

Religion has become just another "sorority" gone wrong.

What should be a guideline is being abused as a crutch.
Weak people have done this.

Time to realise only actions (be it kind acts, sacrificial acts, evil acts) can define anything.

A religion doesn't define a person.
A person's actions define their religion.

And thus, ironically, him making that statement is not facing up to reality.

i beg to differ. People may feel frighten and depress for a while if they give up the idea of god but they will recover and still be able to live with the fact after a while.

Infact, its better to live with the truth than to delude ourselves. Believing in god does not solve any problems. Believers are still having problems coming with terms with things.

january SG

actually, god is part of reality, not the other way round.

Isis SG

Religion is supposed to set u free, not the other way round.

Religion does not define you. It is you who put there "label" onto yourself Idea

Gauze SG

It is a social controversy I feel too as a muslim mat. However, I would recognize the quirk just as it is, that one's bond with one's fellow religious mates comes only from the association to a particular religion, not really from a true involved relationship. For us caught in it, we see how it is a false solidarity.

What do you mean you can't do things..?
