And even if people become "religously" enlightened, it doesn't even mean that that is necessarily true, it...

    Who is God?

    It's because they couldn't think of a cool name, similar to how you run into men some times who's name is guy. The one who named him didn't know what else to call him. It can also be compared to native americans. like when they saw the first train, they called it iron horse, nothing else made...

    Is Religion doing more harm than good?

    but that's not necessary true. most view that as your conscience. not some being talking to you, but that's ok. I disagree with your beliefs, but of course you are entitled to your opinion

    Is Religion doing more harm than good?

    Well there has to be some reason that people believe in religion.

    Is Religion doing more harm than good?

    I thought you said you were a thiest? anyways, if that's really how you view, I agree with you in the above quote, and I too look at life from a stance of general non-belief.

    Is Religion doing more harm than good?

    no. i don't believe things are hardwired, I just take it like I see it. I used to be catholic, but things that are taught in religion don't hold up in the real world, so I stopped going to church. p.s. in case you thought i was athiest, I'm not. Agnostic
