WHY RELIGION?
#19
RE: WHY RELIGION?
If it were, it handily explains why I'm uninterested in religious transactions.  People this side of the toll bridge making an ask are grifters, lol.  There's nothing I could do in this life to alter the disposition of my alleged soul in a hypothetical afterlife.  Think it through.  It there's a posthumous sorting hat I'm going to end up were the cumulative sum of my being funnels me.  

I could go through the motions, I could even believe in a christian god - but neither of those things would make me christian or capable of becoming a christian..and one suspects that a god would be able to realize that.  Either proactively in an example of divine prescience..or punitively as a case of seeing through pious theater.  

I'm going to live my life seeking out what's good for life and good in life, that's just who I am.  If this persuasion, eithr by act or ommission lands me in some pit, I was always going to end up in that pit..and no amount of bullshitting a god is going to get me out of it anyway.  So..I guess I'll just have to wait and see whether christians on this side of the ferry were wrong...assholes, or both.

Could go any way, really. Wink
