It makes no sense at all.
I mean, we never asked to exist and when we do come into existance we are already classed as bad and due to go to hell before we're able to do anything and then we are expected to apologise for being who we are and to follow idiot rules laid down by some prat(god). Which makes no sense at all and that if we poses certain thoughts or lack therof we end up going to hell for ever and ever and ever with endless torture for it. Some how infinite torture for a finite victemless crime makes sense to god????
Religion makes no sense at all! It only makes sense to those who already believe in it.
