Religion makes life complicated. Coincides with what the Architect and what agent Smith talk about in the Matrix movies. I know I will be hated for alluding to those movies, but there are some truisms expressed in the the movies. People like making things pointlessly complicated, and religion is one of the many tennets through which this is accomplished. Did I misuse the word "tennet"? Spank me if I'm wrong

Now don't get me wrong. I know that there are many good things about religions. Some religions encourage people to become virtuous, which can only be a good thing. It is when it comes down to issues of faith and the existence of God or whatever other deity, that things become hairy.

I am undecided on all accounts. I don't know if there is a God, but I am open to the possibility. I don't know if I have a soul or not, but I am open to the possibility.
