For what, exactly? Some promise of an afterlife that doesn't really offer any guarantee since it comes from a book written by men who were only sheep herders?
I am so fortunate that I don't subscribe to that nonsense. I can live my life knowing I'm not trying to please some made up character that I will never see. Fuck all that noise.

It's a tool. It gives comfort, gives a way to explain things, even if it's inaccurate, and is a way for the powerful to control the masses. That's why it has endure long past its point of being obsolete.

It is a tool, and not the purpose, it's a tool to drive us to God and justice.

And I'd rather be controlled by the God, the True Master, and not the likes of Trump and the silly leaders people choose.
