Why that God or gods?
#7
RE: Why that God or gods?
Well, I used to be in a catholic school and I used to believe in God when I was a little kid (8-12 years), I used to believe in God, because they had told me God was responsible for all the good in the world and he would send you to hell if you woulldn't obey him...
They literally scared me into Christianity.
The only reason I believed in god during those four years, was fear.
Fear of going to hell and burning for all eternity, they still use that same method in my old school.
Frighten the kids into believing in God seems to work quite well.
