Thank you for the acknowledgement, although I don't want to be too harsh on my Athiest friends on this thread and I have my reasons.
No Problem and it's all about respect. If it were me I would say "Everyone, believe in whatever you want to believe in. Who knows, you might be right."Thank you for the acknowledgement, although I don't want to be too harsh on my Athiest friends on this thread and I have my reasons.

I take out the wisdom from religion and leave the garbage stories be.
I don't mean to be rude, but that's the definition of 'Parasite' U_U You might wonna change your ways, just another friendly advice.
parasite? That doesn't make any sense bro. (Don't be offended, just counter)I take out the wisdom from religion and leave the garbage stories be.

The primary purpose of the people that put together religious scripts was to spread spiritual enlightenment and to bring out the true potential of mankind. So, I'm free to live a religious life being brainwashed to the max, but when I go for the real wisdom, I'm a parasite?

'Parasite' is an organism which lives on a host and benefits by deriving it's nutrients. It basically drains out its host while nurishing itself and likely to leave the host in a weakened state. Sorry, I don't specifically mean to call you this despicable, awful name. I'm only trying to warn you because you are starting on a low level of earning this name. So please be careful and don't do such a hideous, indecent act. It will lead to a very disappointing and horrific end. In reality, there are people, high in rank that have rightfully earned this name and they are doomed whether it be in this life or the next. I believe God is reserving their punishments for the next world if they are living an 'eternal' happy life in this world.
EDIT: The sole purpose of any religion is to help people to become civilized. Sure it can be difficult to choose which religion is the righteous one and the best one for you since I'm going through that dilemma myself. But one can only help himself if he/she researchs. My interests are so far in Buddhism, Islam and some japanese beliefs, although they're more of cultures and traditions than to do with religion, I guess.

I'll ask you what exactly am I doing wrong? In what way, am I profitting of someone/something? What should I do to 'pay back'? pray?

Which explains why people that don't believe in god are easily controlled by the government
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyways , theres nothing wrong with religion. In the greek bible, it teaches you to not kill,respect people,don't judge,etc and I try my best in following that as well.
There are people that go pass what the bible teaches and judge others for not believe in god. That" god hate them."
Which he doesn't. God gave us the freedom to choose rather to follow him or not. Jesus is the one that will judge if you will be allowed to go to heaven or not. Not by people saying if you don't believe you are going to hell.
Today our freedom is being taken away by governments and there are signs that are being given to show that is true. We are seeing more wars,and corruption and the bible warned us about that.

If you believe in the big bang,that nothing can create something (atoms),then you should be able to see that there could be a God.
If you don't believe in god then that's alright,but try and keep an open mind if you can about the subject.

Lmao xd Don't you get it. It's not rocket science. Man, are you trying to make it difficult for yourself? You said religious scriptures "I take out the wisdom from religion and leave the garbage stories be." - In this case(please don't take this to the heart) a Parasite would take out wisdom and knowledge of a particular thing and leave it in a used or weakened state. While you would nourish from it and use it for your own benefit. What's the point in that? That's like as if you don't even trust the scripture, whatever kind of scripture it may be. :shrug: I'm just wondering how the people would feel and react if they ever fond out you're using their holy book for your own selfish gain xd

I believe you mean something can't come out of nothing, which is a common justification for theism. While that's a relevant argument, it doesn't explain how God got there. Additionally, if you study physics, you'll find that something can come from nothing, explaining the origins of the universe. Neil DeGrasse Tyson explains it better than I can:

whoever says that religion is used to control people is not looking at it objectively. It may be true in some places, However, it's not the teachings of that religion that brought this; it's the higher ups that use it for that.
I am very open minded to the subject. My quoted comment just states that the religious dogma in general is used to control people which can't be denied by informed people.Which explains why people that don't believe in god are easily controlled by the government

at the bolded: Another quote from Einstein is; 'The field is the sole governing agency of the particle', The particle being 'atom' or 'matter' if you wish, and the field 'energy', since EVERYTHING is energy. This quote basically states that energy/light/awareness is the (co)creator/manipulator of matter. Give that a thought, you can go VERY deep into the term 'god' and 'universe' with this quote only.
But with that quote, I think Einstein discredited his own theory of the big bang.
Maybe I should put on the table my perspective of the term that people like to spam without knowing the concept of ..(god)

Religion was created by men to explain the unexplainable natural phenomena surrounding him. "God" is the part of the Universe that gets smaller and smaller every day as science discovers more and more about how things really work. Some day, when mankind knows enough, "God" will have no meaning.
