Btw s/minions/creatures Your quote about chocolate was too funny, I could not resist cracking a come back. :p [quote]Seems chalked full of hatred towards God.[/quote]I don't hate your god. How could I hate something that, to me, do not exist :confused: [quote]Why do you hate the idea of God so much?[/quote]Easy : I simply don't understand religions. I understand spirituality : the wishful thinking in something greater or a deep humility towards nature at large ( as in the physical world and our understanding of it ). On the other hand, to me religions are delusions. Delusions and endoctrination ( mostly due to cultural pressure ) based on made up and touched countless time stories. The fact that some people are torn apart between their nature and their beliefs ( or those imposed to them ) is beyond me. Another thing I never understood about religions, even as a child, is the rituals : do deities ignore or punish their minions if they don't burn a candle, gather every X days/hours, blindly repeat X times a prayer, ... I thought deities were omniscient and compassionate therefore why do they need their minions to act like sheeps ? [small][edit] Not being a native English speaker and not formalizing my view on the topic everyday, I hope I managed to get my point accross.
