To Agnostics, question for you

[heathendegenerate]

That's pretty much my point though. In reality, everyone should describe themselves as agnostic, as it's impossible for anyone to know whether a god does or does not exist. I don't care what they tell you. Anyone who seriously sits there and thinks "I know god exists" is either being intellectually dishonest with themselves or downright brainwashed beyond all comprehension.

Yes. Great post.

I've often thought religion wouldn't exist if it weren't for our egos. lol

I think you've hit the nail on the proverbial head. It is all ego. When I was so sick, and so lost, all that made me feel good was the idea of some supernatural force coming to save the day. It made me feel special; the thought of someone really loving my potential as they understood my pain was outstanding to me. Then I realized, when I came to the lovely world of atheism, it was just like what lennon and einstein said. It was just a way of measuring sadness. When I felt good, I'd never keep up the save me mindset.

It wasn't until shit hit the fan that I needed jesus. The thought of christianity being true kept me alive, so I thought. Now that the god delusion is out of my life, I can safely say I've never felt better. But part of me, a big part of me, feels like I shouldn't ever take the god delusion away from people, unless they ask questions. I'm not going to lie for their sake, as I will always be myself. But some people REALLY need jesus to be true. Their intelligence and or personalities just cant handle it. Sorry if this doesnt make perfect sense, I'm a bit out of it tonight.
