Its not a matter of caring about how one lives their life, its just a personal fascination I have. I dont know if there is a God or not, but I find the hypocrisy and inconsistency with which dogmatic religious individuals base their beliefs to be truly baffling.
If you want to believe fine, I just think its crazy that amongst all our advancements and achievements we still hold to superstition against all odds like this.

I'm going to Hell anyway, so why not?

You should get some ointment for that irritated vag.
I'll pray for you.

I'll answer for both sides of the question.
Religious side: No, I love my family and all but I'm not spending eternity in Hell to feed them for a few years.
Non-religious side: No, I'm not living like cattle branded for the slaughter, the government can kiss my arse. While death is permanent, I'd rather die free than live a slave.
"I am not a number. I am a free man!"

Correct, but we've advanced far enough for every religious person alive to dismiss fairies, unicorns, minotaurs and every religion but their own as silly superstition.
It isnt how much we know, its that we think we know enough to dismiss thousands of claims which hold equal merit with the belief we personally hold dear. Its just shockingly inconsistent.

Are you irritated by people who insist they were kidnapped by aliens? Im not, but I still find their belief in such things interesting.

You can see my thoughts on that in the alien abduction thread. Your hijacking if this one has gone on long enough... We get it, you don't believe in something you can't see.

I just feel as long as there are more questions than answers it's not safe to dismiss everything. Life it's self is a crazy concept. And as people our capabilities are very limited. So are our imaginations.
This whole universe could be microscopic dust particles in the middle of somewhere else for all we really know.

but when you compare current achievement to the societies responsible for religious texts, our advancement is beyond their imagination.

I believe in literally thousands of things Ive never seen. That isnt even remotely the issue. By saying that, you're putting god on par with an electron.

If I went back to visit the hebrews circa 400 BC with my cellphone, car, Ipad and a bottle of alcohol over 40 proof, they would call me God.
That is something to seriously ponder when consider the validity of such ancient beliefs.

Well paid Egyptian citizens and a surprisingly advanced lever/pulley system.

I often wonder what else is out there buried under thousands of years of sand.

I want to know what's under the Sphinx's paw

Sex toys. Lots and lots of ancient sex toys.

In the context of what I've written, how do you come up with such a silly statement? I didn't equate God to an electron... I equated you to a douche.
