Every Christian I've encountered on this forum does mental backflips to avoid touching the negative implications of their beliefs. I know you are not a Christian, maybe Muslims are more apt to accept his stuff? Not sure. But anyway, you, you just go right for logical conclusions, and damn the negative implications. If it's God, it isn't really negative. Seriously, I'm not being facetious here. My hat off to you for the courage to just, go there.)Time is short and life is cruel. It's better to deal with life with total honesty. I wish to have kids of my own, if I had a daughter or a son I swear to protect them with everything I have, and make sure they live a happy life. But I will never forgive myself if I keep my toddler in to drown in the shower, while I smoke weed outside.
Kids are not complete in terms of brain; and they have many years to grow. It's better for me to know the fact, instead of lying to myself and treat my child like an adult, and end up with a raped kid or a junky child.
It's just that I saw a lot. So maybe I appear to be cruel. But I think reality is like that: cruel. And religion? believe me, all of them use fear to some extent.
I'm not good with Muslims, either : Actually I have severe issues with both sects in Islam: Sunna sect, and Shia sect. I think they are destroying the religion, and also destroy the humans who adapt them. They eat peoples' minds slowly.
Hat off here also Aroura. Thank you for hearing what I had to say.
