I find it sad that adults of all religions cant see that the bad in life is an unfortunate ratio in nature, and the real way to reduce bad things is to study them and find answers to solve those problems rather than chalk them up to fictional super heros and fictional boogiemen.
Not funny haha but funny as in peculiar.
And not only is it sad but it's dangerous too. Many religious people simply do not live in the realm of reality or fact and there are many of us that DO and we truly are trying to make life good for not only ourselves but everyone else involved in this whole 'life thing.' To simply chalk something up to 'god did it' is not only sad but irresponsible and possibly dangerous.
“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.
It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.
Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll
