Convert me!

[Gooders1002]

Ok, here's my problem. I'm a Christian. I'm not mad keen on most other christians, we seem to attract more than our share of dicks. I'm downright embarrassed by mainstream christianities attempts at science. The bible seems to me full of contradiction and irrationality.

But here's the thing, religion offers something. An easy answer to lifes hard questions, a(broadly) functional moral code to live by, and something to cuddle when I get afraid of the dark (metaphysically speaking). I've heard religion described as a crutch and I think that's true. If I decide not to believe in god any longer, to throw away the crutch are there any upsides to replace all that stuff?

Mans religion is designed to give you false hope and to control you through fear and false reward. Your best bet is to do away with your labels and seek the true, whatever that really is and is accurately. Logic and reason are your friends, question everything and be sceptical.

In terms of having a Crutch, you have to except the reality that there was never a crutch, you were tricked into believing that there was a crutch. You been standing by your self the whole time, you just never knew it.
