Good points fellows - here is try number 2:
Searching for meaning can't really be considered a bad thing. I just tend to be frustrated by folks who look in the wrong places for meaning and don't usually express myself effectivly.
I tend to turn to nature and relationships with others to sort things out and not any kind of religion. Seems to me these things can be more reliable and can teach us far more lessons than what religion has to offer. I have seen very few if any positive outcomes and healthy relationships that are rooted in religion.
As far as the stupid thing is concerned, following anything without question seems pretty stupid and ignorant in any situation. Exploring other possible options can pay very nice dividends for anyone.
