Christianity to me is like saying, this is life, but it is a sin to do anything that would be considered human nature, and dont forget to pay the man on the way out.
To me Christianity is just a religion made to control people and screw around with them. Just because its written in a book, doesnt make it worth fighting wars over. God is a story book character that a man wrote about, and some guy just wanted to see how far it would go.
The way i see it, by worshiping god you are by proxy worshiping the man who wrote god. so why bother. And i always enjoyed the term "God Fearing" that just doesnt seem right. Why should you fear this thing that is supposed to grant you salvation? why worship something you fear so much? and just because some person in a robe on sundays tells you that you will go to "hell" if you dont fear god? gives him some power eh? People need to stop and think about what they are doing. Why not believe in yourself? I can touch me, i can see me, and i cant touch or feel god, i only hear about him from the guy who holds the book. Wouldn't you feel better about something if you spent the time you would on god on yourself? who deserves it more, a story book character or yourself? I pick the latter
This is my oppionion on the matter.
