Very long read, was worth the time though.
I for once believe in God. And not any religion's God, but the God I believe in is the creator of the Universe. I do believe that most religions were born from the innate ideas and preocupations us humans have about our origins and our destinies.
Think about this, Israel, the "chosen people" do not believe that Jesus is the Messiah. So if they are the chosen people they must be correct right? Then Christians are wrong. But if Christians are correct, then Jews couldn't have been the chosen ones since they are rejecting who is God himself. This means that only a select few are correct and that you will be lucky to be among them, it will be by chance that you end up in the "select" group of believers, be it by heritage or by choice, but you will never know until you finally die. Which totally contradicts what these religions profess, that we are all equals in front of God.
That's what bothers me about religion, the "I'm right, you are wrong" attitude. I have my beliefs, and I do believe God exists and that he is a consious being, not a lifeless source of energy. And that he is the judge of us all. I also believe in morals being universal and that what's considered good or bad everywhere is the same. Even the most horrific criminals (discounting the psychopaths, schizophrenics, etc) end up showing regret and pain about their acts. We know what's right or what's wrong, it's perhaps the situation that blinds us, but everyone knows how to differentiate what's good from what's bad, morals ARE NOT SUBJECTIVE.
Proceed.
