although, everything exists for a cause. if we were here just living to die and that was that...there would be no reason for jesus or any other type of religion for that matter. i would have no desire to become closer to God. that 100 year old tree that helped make a house for the needy would have never grown.

Believe what you want, April, but if we disagree, it might just be for a good reason.
I think that Karl Marx was essentially correct in saying that relgion is the opiate of the masses. ...Not that it drugs them into submission, but it is what makes life bearable at times. Some people can't accept the possibility that their lives *don't* have a purpose, and religion is the crutch they need to continue functioning. And I'm okay with that, really, as long as they don't feel the need to force me to use their crutches when I can walk pretty well on my own.

Christians will swear up and down that they aren't perfect, but get one to admit they're wrong...
So what you're saying is that God allows things to cause other things??
You're right, without God, I couldn't drop this soda can and have it hit the floor.
Nylarathotep, that was pretty good. To be honest I never thought of it like that. Makes lots of sense. Lord knows sometimes it takes me lots of scotch to get through the day.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
