Religion is a Control Tool

Enough bickering over metaphors. We are educated beings with common sense. Lets start using it.

i just looked up those gods and it said Set is the god of desert, storms, and chaos. Horus is a sky god and is responsible for night and day. and there fights had nothing to do with day and night but with upper and lower Egypt. i can't believe any of this if you don't have other resources to back it up and i can't find any.

Bless you and I hope you will continue your search for truth.

Do u know our Consitution/Bill of Rights were based on the Bible? Do u understand that it was the Bible & God's blessings that kept us free, & the men who believed in it? In 1964-65 our Country, thru Supreme Court gave God the finger & told Him to GET OUT. He's a gentleman. He moved out, along w/His protection. THINK! This Country has gone 2 hell in a hand basket since then. Ur cherished mythology is just that: Mythology. Mythology copied God's Word, NOT visa versa.

As a Unitarian Minister, I must point out your mistake. Washington and most of the Founding Fathers were Unitarian Universalist's or a faction there of. Please research for yourself and use a rational mind to discern the facts. The reason our country IS falling apart, in my opinion, is BECAUSE of the Evangelical movement INTO politics. An unconstitutional move if I ever saw one.

In Peace and Beauty,

The US Constitution does not mention god, the bible or Jesus. The Constitution establishes a republic based on law not religion.

The Supreme Court ruled the way it did because the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment separates church and state. It's illegal for government to support any religion.

Myths 3000 yrs older than the Jesus myth already had virgin births, birthdays on Dec. 25, miracles, betrayal, crucifixion, and resurrection. Christianity is a copy of older religions.

religion is not just a tool, but also a weapon. more dumbasses have died over religion than any war ever thought of. step outside yourself and let your thoughts go. i get asked by christians, why don't I believe? i alway's ask them how they can. if you have to believe in a god to get you through the day, more power to you. how can anyone follow an imaginary being who promises salvation, but deals out death and despair. i'm not sayin' religious people are idiots, just misled and lied to.

freedom to spill another's blood is not freedom.

it is lawlessness

why should another suffer for another's transgressions

this leaves two groups of people...

[SpliffusBongicaOfGor]

there's no evidence of God as you believe in it lol let alone "more"

just written word, written by manipulative humans

and that doesn't prove anything except that you love the bigger team the more support

lol give me evidence and I'll show you exactly how you've mistaken it for fact

and I mean this in a fed up sense

I dont mean to fuck you just to tell you you're backwards by lies

[Soulfreett]

you r the best

I agree that freedom is for everyone , I agree in what you have to say , but the fact is we are all not free yet , those UNDER CONTROL be it RELIGIOUS or OTHERWISE need help to Wake up to this FREEDOM that is TAKEN AWAY from them .

so why care? who cares if religion is man made or not? don't we have a freedom to believe what we want to? I happen to believe in God...that is Jesus Christ up above. but im not pushing you to believe it. and you sure as hell aren't going to push me to believe otherwise. I believe what i believe, cus theres more evidence of it, than of the other. people that dont know where to turn, just havnt studied everything fully enought yet. its there loss or weakness. the truth is out there

[8IT4U]

first of all the vatican is evil. anyone that thinks roman catholics are christians are being fooled. They are leadin many people away from 'God',today...just like these pagans gods did throughtout history. Also, if you don't believe in Jesus Christ as 'God', you just aren't wanting to believe it. The 'Old' Testament phrophecizes about Jesus being born and dieing for us...many years before he did. And now the New Testament is foretelling whats about to happen in our near future.
