Read the Bible -- but don't read it critically. It's the old -- you have to believe it before you can believe it. They also play the card -- the Bible can only be properly understood by xtians -- special people. It is a special book that only special people can properly comprehend.
The fact of the matter is that in all religions -- the doctrine must be incomprehensible. It must contradict itself, be vague, ambiguous, nonsensical, absurd, and just plain wrong. This is why religion can only function in an authoritarian construct.
It's OK, we told you what to believe.
Some people, if not told what to believe, really could not come up with a belief system on their own. It's sad, just fucking sad.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste -- don't pollute it with bullshit.
