Hopefully you'll gain a better understanding of religions purpose and further logical and rational thinking. Fear is no reason to believe anything.
Your English seems great to me and I look forwars to reading your posts and interacting.



You're wrong, Tack.

As H. L. Mencken said decades ago.

Quote:What is the function that a clergyman performs in the world? Answer: he gets his living by assuring idiots that he can save them from an imaginary hell. It is a business almost indistinguishable from that of a seller of snake-oil for rheumatism.
