I have posted only 3 times in this thread (this being the third) because arguing with people about religion is like beating your head against a brick wall. Religious zealots are addicted, just as a drug addict is addicted to drugs. They are not about to listen to reason. But here's the thing: I have known quite a few Christians who are a$$-holes. They spout off with bible rhetoric, but at the same time, they don't know the proper way to treat people. They're a bunch of hypocrites. I've also known people of eastern religions and they seem to be much less hypocritical than bible bangers (and terrorists comprise just a minute fraction). In the end, ones religion does not make the person. As some have already mentioned here, we must take responsibility for ouselves and stop passing off our mistakes & bad luck as "God's will." If we were to all sit around and do nothing in life while waiting for "God's will," we would still be back living in caves.
