Testing My Faith
#2
RE: Testing My Faith
I've always thought it very strange to base your whole concept of 'Life, the Universe and Everything' on stories that your parents have told you, who got those stories from their parents, who got those stories from their parents and so on....

Surely, if any particular ideology was true it would be obvious. Just as obvious as say, the fact that the Earth is a sphere (well, nearly).

When I was 10 I believed that there really was a god and all the stories of the bible where true. But as I got older I realised they made less and less sense and seemed to actually go against the way that the world/universe obviously worked. Once I was brave enough to say, there is no god and the bible isn't true, everything made sense and it was at that point that I turned to people who had actually studied this strange thing called the Cosmos for answers rather than ancient texts written many centuries ago by people who really didn't have a clue.

It worked for me so maybe it'll work for you too..
