Harry. religions help to form societies. some for the good and some
for the not so good.

Atheistic thinking does too. Just ask Karl Marx.

As if all atheists are Marxists.

How Rushian of you.

"Rushian?"

If you mean R. Limbag, I haven't listened to him in probably two
years.

He inhabits your soul. *He's a good Christian.

Jon, I can just imagine Jesus is looking down and laughing his butt
off at that statement you just made.

I can't imagine any supreme being taking the time to laugh at my joke
while allowing other humans to kill innocent men, women and children.

Make whatever rationalization suits your existence, it's yours to own
and take along to your glorious afterlife.

Or your reincarnation as an earthworm.

Thanks! I'll take the former option and you can have the latter.

I don't get the feeling it's your choice. Nice try.

Uh no, you don't. If you think you do, then it's just a matter of
proving it.

Oh, you can't? Have to take it on faith? You betcha.

Of course I have a choice on if I wish to have a faith or not, and I
have a choice on how to practice what the faith teaches. And what
faith I have I need to prove to no one.

As brilliant as you claim to be I'm surprised you have a difficult
time deciphering that logic.

but it doesn't matter. You have the right, just as I, to believe and
feel however you may.

I have no trouble with you having the right to believe as you see fit
but I certainly have a problem when your lot tells me I'm not going to
heaven because I haven't subscribed to their brand.

If it's there, I'll be pleasantly surprised.

If it's not, neither of us will be disappointed.

I'm not counting on it.
