Hmmm... Let's see what the basic message in the bible is... In a nutshell: [i] - I demand that you live accordingly to my rules alone and bow before my greatness at all times because I'm the ruler. - As long as you do that I might reward you. - Should you use your free will and choose not to obey me, I will have you put on fire and torment you forever..." [/i] Or perhaps this: [i] - I created everything and everyone, I'm infinitely powerful and exist in everything. - Then I gave you free will and left you to do whatever. - At some point in time I will collect those that I deem worthy and burn the rest. [/i] To me this principle seems all too human, in fact it would be very very easy to point at well known names throughout history who applied that principle in real life, on real living human beings. Would I follow a person that applies these principles? Doh, no... Would I follow a god that applies these principles? Doh, no... Then, what about all the "other" religions??? I have no hard fact, but surley there must be a lot more humans beliving in something else than the bible? Should they be doomed to eternal suffering and torment, or should xians be doomed, the majority wins, or??? Hey, what if we start fighting over this, let's just kill a shitload of people in order to decide who has the most powerful or "right" god!!! Oh, wait, we are already doing this in the name of our gods... Yup, religion really brought love, peace and understanding to us humans, don't you agree? It actually seems like humanity is living accordingly to the principles outlined above. But hey, it probably makes life easier if you can explain everything with "he gave us free will to f*ck up everything we want, but he will forgive us if we believe in him...". IF there is a god, in any way, shape or form, he/she/it would have abandoned humanity a loooong time ago and chalked us up as a failed social experiment. And before you say it... I knew I should have bought the domain www.meetabitterandcynicalperson.com but I'm deeply disturbed that someone can look at the misery we humans create on a daily basis and attribute it to "gods will"!?!?!?
