Simming through the chat I believe it should be more of a question who quit catholoscism.

Because Christianity is the general belief of Christ and God. I beleive it's this whole western ideal propaganda that is ruininf its own religion. Only Roman Catholic priests are pedophile because they have to devout themselves to god (a rule which they made up). I think other than groups in America and UK most of the world stays devout because they evolved or stayed "orthodox" (right) the past few centuries. We never here any complaints about Mainland european religious leaders and apperently the eastern rite does end up  being the better "rite".

On a side note I'm still Greek CATHOLIC a small denomynation of some 10 million of people of different races world wide but I have refined my views a little and tried to understand the religion Im following, abondonding what you don't really know is a quitter way out. An interesting doc/interview I would reccomend is this 9hr peice called (if you google vid search it).

Hope you'll enjoy.

denominationof 10  million is not small.  My denomination has less than 1 million.

I actually thought about being a Greek Orthodox Priest.  After taking Greek for 2 years, ralized that it was still Greek to me so I decided against being a priest

Another prominant reason for my abandoning Christianity. We make up the goddamn rules. Then people start preaching their personal values to the masses and as a catalyst they add in the idea that you are part of something bigger, you're so special.

I've asked myself wether I am a hypocrite in this respect, as I've long pondered the time I will spend with my future child and the things I will teach him/her. If I simply taught the child my own beliefs I would defeat my own logic. But logic is all I need to teach, I realize. With logic the child will come to his or her own sensible conclusions, using what his or her senses are telling. And perhaps my child will go the way of the Atheist, the religion I subscribe to, the religion of free thinking, logic, science, and human trust.
