Will Religion and Athiesm ever compromise?

[TaraJo]

When I look at religion, I like to take advantage of the fact that I can look at them all from a neutral position. I can judge the good and bad points of them without a bias towards any of them. What's more, I don't even feel like I'm biased to say all of them are wrong simply because I have an open mind: if I look at a religious belief system and find reason to believe it's legit, I can go with it (heck, part of me really wants to find a religion I can legitimately believe in).

So I've seen some good things to various religious groups, but they do always seem to have a bit of an asterisk next to them. Their good isn't conditional on their belonging to a certain religion and often they get to be royal dicks with how they choose to do their good (which is exactly I ain't giving money to the Salvation Army). The theology itself, I find religious beliefs interesting to look at, even if I still think they're all hogwash. Still, not having a bias towards any of them makes it easier to examine and compare them on a more level playing field.
