(May 1, 2015 at 11:58 am)Jericho Wrote: Religion in general is imperfect and outdated; used to control the masses in the face of distress or suffering. What's more is that the only evidence that exists for these gods is the text that is sponsored by the specific religion (Christians especially). How can anyone look at any 'holy' text and logically make the decision to follow that particular god blindly?
We don't follow our faith blindly. I view a creator as very logical. I also believe based on how I see God reflected in people and all of nature. Your logic is based totally on a natural view of the view of the universe, therefore you have no tolerance for any supernatural explanations. But your logic was all established by human beings and therefore has limits as set by humans and you're blind to anything else. (When I talk about "you", I'm referring in a general way to anyone who the shoe fits, and not necessarily necessarily you particularly.)
