If you really think about it, any religion (be it Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, or Hinduism, etc.) are really just ancient mythological stories such as ancient Greek or Native American legends. Only thing is, people take it much too seriously leading to mass conflict with differing religions.

Get the Religionmug. Religion is a failed attempt at understanding the natural world around us, why we exist and what the hell our purpose is.
Science may not be able to answer these questions, but that doesn't mean religion can instead does it?
Perhaps some questions simply don't have answers?
Grow up people!

Get the Religionmug. The belief in gods or a God.
The cause of many wars throughout history.
The cause of many deaths throughout history.
Jesus wasn't a killer in disguise, he was just a guy who tried convincing people that it'd be a pretty sweet world if everybody was nice to each other.

While I respect the Judeo-Christian ethic, as well as the Eastern philosophies and of course the teachings of Mohammad, I find that organized religion has corrupted those beliefs to justify countless atrocities throughout history. If I were to attend church, I'd be a hypocrite.
