Christianity. I'm going to leave it at that and not get into a discussion over beliefs. This site is way to dominated by atheists to have a decent religious topic. 

We are building a Creationist theme park in Kentucky.  Maybe you could meet some people there who share your beliefs, while you ride the Jonah Fish Submarine or Noah's Log Flume.

Serioulsy though, I grew up in a very religious family with preacher grandparents, so I know a lot about religion.  Thats why I'm an atheist.

You mean you know a lot about western religion.

So? Where are you getting at?

Isn't it pretty obvious?

No. What makes Eastern religions special?


*Poor hungry African child to big fat American child*

What makes waffles and ice cream with chocolate sauce so special?

hehehe

No, I'm not trying to tell you that Eastern religions are special and western not. Its just that the average modern western man is religious only due to his cultural situation, and he has rarely been satisfied with what philosophical systems he's been taught since there seem to be so many holes in there. On the contrary, certain eastern 'religions' appeal to the intelligent man because they answer your questions before you've asked them. You just have to know where to look.

(Please don't ask me:'' but if its so great why are people in India and Sri Lanka and wherever becoming Christians?'' My uncle is a misionary there (I hardly know him), and I loathe what they are doing there)
