Well... Just read the first post and tell me what could fit in the place of the word "God" better than "Life"...
Why is it so chocking to most of you to try to think and question concepts? Why do you have this pavlovian reflex of polluting a thread as soon as people use the word "God"... Has this word done anything to you? You should call the Vatican if you've noticed a word has magical powers... and shout : "miracle"!!!
It's funny to see many of you are not atheist, but non-christians. You've not thought of the word God or religion outside the box. You're still defining "God" the same way you used to when you were christians. And when you think of "religion", you just think of those idiots marching the streets with signs saying : "Repent for your sins"... but some day, I hope you'll travel and see there are no idiots like that outside of the USA...
I think our ancestors might have worshipped "Life" as the source of all creation... and then religion became business and it were manipulated. But you seem to prefer the idea it were meant to manipulate people from the beginning, which sounds as an arbitrary and illogic argument. The word "God" exists in every culture. Everyone has a concept for a "supernatural being" and the primitive tribes do not produce all that you associate with "god" and "religion"... Why is that if "god" and "religion" always lead to whatever you claim it does?
