What if... What if just for a moment there was a God? What if There are those who've Actually have seen what they claimed and experience what they have experienced in the way of all the various testimonies?? What if you've just been placed in the dark away from the knowledge of God because this is what you've elected to do?
Could you then maybe see why/how 'religion' ran away from worship of God any other way than how you described it?
I fail to see why people worship god.
If there was a god. ( I find this extremely unlikely)
Then it would just be a fact.
Perhaps an interesting fact, but just a thing.
I don't feel the need to worship gravity or evolution but both those things are just as much a reason for my existence as a god is supposed to be.
I don't get the mindset of people who need to prostrate themselves to things like that.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
