Religion, What do you think of it? Options

[HyPN0]

I got the idea for making this thread from Polygamy thread. I think this may be an intresting topic.

What do you think about religion(s)? Do you belive in any kind of gods? Christian God? Alah? Buddha? Or you don't have a religion at all?

If you do stick to your religion, tell us why. If you don't belive that there are such things as gods, again tell us why.
I hope that there won't be any flames or immature behavior. I have good faith in Chorrol.com community that there won't be any hard words, or simply dissrespect towards other opinions.

So, let's start shall we?

All hail Agent Molder!! I want to believe! We are not alone!!!

Ironically, his real last name, Duchovny, can be roughly translated to Serbian as "Spiritual"

I say live and let live

"Nail in my hand/By my creator
You gave me life/Now show me how to live"

I am babtised as an Orthodox Christian. I am probably The Worst Orthodox Christian in the country (although, nowadays competition is preety rough ). I still honor our saints and Jesus (proper name is Isus Hristos), but God... I am angry with him. Not at all scared, but angry. If I get a chance to meet him after the death I'll use that oportunity to tell him what a lousy job he's doing - no matter what happens. Hypno has the right idea about suffering, but ony to some point. We all need to feel the pain to be aware of it. We all need to sense suffering in order to (at least) try and imagine how someone else feels, because empathy really doesen't exist in real world. And finaly, we all feel the need to explain things to ourselves - why are we here, on Earth, what is our purpose, where are we 'going'... Eating, Sleeping, Defecation, Procreation - what's the point ? I do believe someone created Universe, but it is completely different matter if that 'someone' is truly interested in us, or is he/she/it interested in us more then, say, ants ? And if so, why is that - so we could slaughter animals and rape nature on daily basis without overwhelming feeling of guilt ? Meh. I still think he's doing a lousy job, and I think so in a very 'John Constantine' way (sorry about my male shovinism ).

Anyways..

Organized Religion = Teh Suckz

The Faith = Great

Indeed. People who like to bash Jesus Christ forget that he was a man how, in the first place, torn down the dogma that surrounded Jewish religion in those days. He was a man, before everything else, that preached tolerance, understanding, morality and love. And he was the man who died because of his beliefs. I MIGHT not hold too much respect for God in my heart nowadays, but I hold respect for his son and every other martyr, regardless of their religion, who led a good, moral life. I know I caould not be like that in a million years, but I know that much to honor them. And that is why I still go to church - because of Jesus's messages and because of our own patron saintess, St. Petka.

Daedra worship for me! 

Heh. Just kidding.

Let's just face it - we're all a bunch of horrible heretics and we're all going to Hell ! ® Muahahahaha !
