The World is Flat?

Wow. She actually would have to go look up to see if the world is flat or not. So stupid.

As a quick intro into the religious discussion, religion isn't stupid, people are stupid. The writers of the various religious books we have were some of the smartest people to have ever lived. They formulated ways to control people to mostly have better societies. The unfortunate thing is you will always get fanatics who take things too literal and do things in the name of religion that is actually against the primary focus of the book.

 Yes.... these have been my feelings for a very long time... except I don't actually believe every book in the bible to be written by someone smart.  Revelations is a sore thumb and sticks out as such.  Why they decided to include it is beyond me.  The entire chapter stinks of secret society and yet way too many churches center themselves around this one book.  My fiance wanted me to go to church with her once a month... so we started church hopping.  I kid you not... every church talked about revlations as their main topic.  Needless to say I'm disgusted by such stupidity.
