Agreed. You must enjoy life for whatever time it gives you to live, so always Cherish whatever memorries you have (Happy or sad) because its always better than None.
Srry for going off Topic

<------------------- Just look at my name.
Lithium, I hope you aren't sterotyping...
Thats bad!Anyways!Is life all so good though...? If you wish to respond please click and post here.Is darkness and death really bad, or again are we just afraid of the unknown?Reply here.Back onto topic... (Sorry)Mesa agrees that Religion can benefit and harm a person.
It's really if the person in charge is following their own and if they truly wish peace upon the people.
(Assuming the religion they follow is for peace, but aren't all religions?)Am I making any sense? Sorry.
Sorry, but I didn't wanna far off topic by asking this in this topic so... I had one of my own that and I don't usually go surfing too much so... the results are as they are.
Sorry!
Back onto Topic now stupid Detestable_EVIL!
The point is the religion isn't bad, it's just the people who are into religion way too much, like Osama Bin Ladin, and those who hate religion for no good reason, and don't know any about it, and definately dont care about what anyones got to say about the religion.
There's no reason to hate religion, unless the religious people constantly try to shove it down your throat (which they aren't suppose to do, but yet they still do.) If you think religion is stupid, fine, but don't go bashing religion unless you have a very good reason to (such as it is affect/hurting your life.)
I think that religion has done more good than bad but it has most certainly done both. I don't believe in any religion but I think it's a good thing. The main thing that I think about religion is this: Everybody needs a foundation to start on. Whether you choose to advance in this foundation, or adopt a new one is your choice. It all comes down to belief but then again thats just my belief lol.
yeah, well not all religion is bad, "satanism" is bad however, is considered fully illegal around your local school.
Please learn what satanism is before making remarks concerning its legality.
fine, i have stated it wrong, i meant "SATANIC CULTS" are bad.
I do believe cults in general have a bad connotation.
Also: Detestable, can you refrain from posting in many colors like that? I have to go through hell reading your posts, and I'm tempted to not even try.
try "XD" you won't be able to read it in the add post box

Yeah. I agree with that but I suppose a Satanist would think opposite so its all opinion.
P.S.
I could have sworn lithium was red.
Sorry Kow.
I thought it might have been easier to read. (It is for me.)
Apologizes to all I've irritated.

I think its a waste of time. Think about it. What If all that stuff didnt exsist? We would be wasting many hours of our lives. All it does is cause wars and devide us.

Flip that, what if it is real and you spendeternity as Stan's poolboy in the lake of fire, you sir lack logic.
Just with everythnig else religions can be used for good or evil.
I think that my religion is my own and that the rest of you are wasting your breath debating it here rather than going to see religious authorities

I'll admit that only reason I believe in Christianity is that it provides a personal relationship w/ God. When I'm in trouble, I can have sum1 to tell my problems to.
Religion isn't good or bad. Its a set of morals and beliefs. You cannot define morals and beliefs as being good or bad.
Canabals - To 'us', they are freaks. They eat humans. Thats sick.
But to themselves, it is a way of life. Something that they would never think twice about. They see fish eat other fish, insects eat other insects, birds eating other birds. Why is eating humans so wrong?
Personally, I dont really follow a religion. I call it
Apathetic Agnostic, because I dont care if there is a God or not. Religion to me is useless... It relys on some super-natural being that we dont even know if it exists or not for strength and hope. It weakens the believer into thinking that if they bow down to another human they can be granted divine gifts (WRONG!). Some people are strong willed and follow a religion... which puzzles me because why would you need religion if you are able to go on without it? I have no need for religion. I can't even find a practical use for it.

Why not a parent? Brother, sister, relative? Friends? School councilor? Professional councilor? Internet friends? Random people on the internet? School janitor? School principal? Some kind of instructor? You can literally reach out to people on SeN for advice or just to listen.

Hey! You're like me! Except I don't affiliate myself with religion

I see my religious authority: God.

I'm sorry. I'm stupid. I can't answer that intelligently... But, I think it's cuz I believe (more stupidity) that any human can't be as understanding or loving as God can be. I know, it sounds weird and stupid...
More reasons I believe in God:
-Fear of death
-Fear of a justice-less world
-Fear of not existing
-Guilty Conscience
I believe cause there's nothing I can explain w/o him/her/?
Dats the stupedest thing I've ever heard. Science explains everything (with a limit) and you don't need God to explain things in this world.
Um, science does not explain everything, explain how everything physical came to be, how we came to be. Evolution has its flaws. Don't undermind me either, I'm religious to extent, not illogical.
