I've heard of people "trully moved by the presence of God". I've heard of people that have raised demons. I've seen people that beleive that we are all part of one supreme entity where we all go after we die. I've heard and seen all of these people beleive in these things just as much as anything else in the world.
To all of you that have seen or heard something that no one else has seen or heard. To those who feel something inside them or have a relationship with something no one else has ever experienced (Or experience in an entirely different way.) I want you to ask yourself who the liars really are. Who are the people that are wandering this life ignorant? Who are those that are pathetically beleiving in something that doesn't exist? Is it the Hindus over in Asia who refuse to eat cows? The catholics in the United States who beleive that they actually change bread to Jesus' flesh? Is it the Satanists that beleive they actually raise demons and have them do their bidding? Why are they the liars? I want you all to look at yourselves and ask yourself, "Why am I any more right than they are?"
The next question I ask myself is this: If all of these religions are completely fabricated then why do so many people follow them? Because it brings you some sort of happiness. Because it boosts your ego and makes you feel better about yourself. It's habitual, something you are more comfortable doing because you've done it for so long. The bottom line is that it was taught to you by everyone around you. Do you think it's a coincidence that everyone thinks murder is a terrible act? Do you really think murder is considered wrong simply because it's "immoral"? A child at infancy would tell you murder is wrong, not some old guy in the sky, not a book, not a thousand others sources that manipulate us every day, the only reason infants beleive murder is wrong is because of everyone around them. That's what they have been taught. You're religions are the same way and whenever the religion doesn't agree with your personality and teachings you leave. You find a group that does.
Don't you see? When you look at all religions the one thing they have in common is that they are groups of people. You all reach out to other people to give meaning to your morals when, when it comes down to it, there really isn't any. Your beleif becomes a foundation on itself. Rediculous arbitrary morals.
Murder isn't "wrong", rape isn't "wrong", but punishing it makes our lives better. Selfishness is the root of morals, not faith. Stop lying to yourself but, probably more importantly, stop lying to me.
