Religion is not necessary

there is no scientific evidence to either say that there is a god or that there isnt a god? what i do believe though through personal experience is that there is something that explains it all but religion is not the way for us to find out . i had a near death experience that proved to me that an afterlife exists but to get there has nothing to do with religion of any denomination? these religions are giving people teachings that were man made to control people and to scare them, all they exist for is financial gain full stop. following catholic, church of england and other christian religions will get us knowhere the bible was fabricated by king constantine the great in 325 ad, he along with others saw an opportunity to control his subjects by inventing stories to make a bible? at the time hardly anyone could read or write so the stories were passed down by word of mouth. jesus did exist but his life has been totally exagerrated to hype up the strength of the man made bible. there is no proof whatsoever that it is the word of jesus or god. we do not need religion ? all we have to do in this life is to be honest, kind and have love for our fellow people, if we are compassionate also we will go on to live again. when we see the pope drinking out of gold jewel encrusted chalices we should tell him to give it to the poor along with all the vaticans other wealth, all the religions are doing is milking the gullible people out of their hard earned cash? the churches have billions of pounds stashed away in bank accounts that they have taken from the people, they make me sick with all their brainwashing. religion isnt necessary at all and the world would be a better place without it, at least there would be world peace. think of a religion that doesnt take money from us, and then you will find a true one-one that doesnt exist.

a) There is no scientific evidence that there is a God (why believe in something that might not exist?). There is no need for scientific evidence that god doesn’t exist only that he does.

b) We don’t need to have ‘religious’ people to get advice from…anyone can have their own personal experiences and give advice to anyone. It is also completly subjective and is a total lack of proof

c) This is not necessarily true. Many religious believers have fallen deeply into religious believes that they actually donated hospital bills that was saved for onee of their family members. What I can definately promise is that not only religious believers are ‘better’ or ‘good’ people. Everyone in this world could be ‘better’ or ‘good’. They are only better if you:

1) assume the existance of a god

2) take what you think he, or a proxy, ‘says’ to be the definition of good

3) do it

And there you have yourself a fully circular argument

We dont need religion as a way of life. There are too many denominations arguing and opposing one and other. Without religion we would care for each other more by making more use of the money we would of donated to each church, the money these churches have should be taken from them by law and put back into the communities of each country thats poor? What is the good of hoarding all the wealth that they have? helping the deprived people of the world and buying hospital machinery to save lives etc. is far better than leaving it in a bank account. Why do the churches ask for money in the first place? Doesnt this prove that religion is purely money orientated? If they cared about people the churches would of distributed their wealth long before now. They simply do not follow the teachings quoted by Christ and are nothing but hypocrits the lot of them. Many children have to go to church from a very early age allowing the church to brainwash them into their way of life, its the same with every church – forcing their doctrines upon us uninvited purely for control. Talk about satan and us going to hell is simply to scare everyone there is no hell and no satan, God was too perfect to make such a mistake as to create an angel that would rebel against him, to say he did would mean he was imperfect and God is perfect. If he could create the universe then he wouldnt of made a silly mistake like satan. we are given a free will by the creator and if we do wrong then we are to blame not some devil if we do good in our lives its because we have made the right decision not because God has helped us.

If people want to talk to god it should be done in privacy, rather than going to a church to pay ones way to heaven. the kingdom of God is within us all if we live right and be good to each other, it wont be found inside a church or in any religion. Thus many athiest people are better citizens that church goers. For those that want to learn about God or Jesus then all they have to do is listen to their conciences and do the thing that is right in life not support religions that stop 25% of their wages, and filling collection plates with money when more desperate needs are awaiting that money.

Organized religions are not necessary because they created religions as institutions where God is worshiped through praising and pleasing practices and expecting God will forgive our sins. God by definition does not need any praise and appeasement. Sins can never be cleared by God alone. Sins can only be forgiven by person whom you caused damage in any capacity. This kind of worship simply takes human being away from their moral responsibility toward fellow human beings. Excessive praising and pleasing God give us a pleasure which is more a kind of immediate gratification but does not give us a long lasting satisfaction. Organized religions are based on emotional attachment/feeling to God, even cruelty to human being is justified in the the name of God. Organized religion makes us more self-centered people.

Personal religion is relationship between individual human being(no need of organized religion) and God and is based on individual human being commitment to other human being on moral ground. True worship of God is implementing moral values and is personal rather than institutional. We are used to see God only connected to organized religion. When we see immorality by organized religions then we automatically turn to believing nonexistence of God. We typically do not associate practicing moral values as part of worship of God but rather something human can do on his own without need of existence of God. Why God is needed to be existent in personal religion?. God is kind power to which we feel humble to and seek courage in our struggle while implementing moral values toward other human beings. Implementing moral values does not give us any pleasure of immediate gratification in nature but it requires struggle and painstaking process followed by long lasting satisfaction. Personal religion is based on empathy I.e. we feel others’ pain and suffering. Life is the most beautiful thing when we human beings feel others’ pain and suffering. When it comes to respect of human life, personal religion is the religion of logic/rational and reasons.

In nutshell, God is present, there is no need of organized religion, there is personal relationship or religion between God and human being where God is considered existent as a symbol of humbleness during our struggle while implementing moral value to others.
