What do believers say when you ask or tell them..

RE: What do believers say when you ask or tell them..
I just think that religion is extremely odd, it makes no sense what so ever. A book with fairy tales written by mankind as entertainment, a spark of truth in some of the tales but everytime the tale has been told the speaker spices it up to make it more exciting. I think that people will in the not so far distant future start realising religion is wrong and will sit at the dinner table laughing over how silly people were when we believed in the religions we have today. The same as we look back at how people could believe in Thor, Trolls etc.

The only reason I can see why people believe is because they're brought up with it. But even in that case.. you have a choice.

It really really boggles my mind how people can believe in such absolute crap (in my opinion, I don't want to offend anyone). So tell me what's the reason for people believing in it except for being brought up with religion?

fr0d0 What do you think about Darwins theory?

Oh, thanks for the welcomes =).

Ok, so how do you know praying is good? How mad would you be if you found out you'd be in hell after you died?

How come there has never been any evidence of any miracle ever?
Why hasn't an arm or leg grown out? Why is it always something that might've gotten better anyway?
