I was thinking today about religion and people and why the big deal, and this is what came to me:
We all have in common a couple things, no matter where we are from.
1. We know we are going to die someday and we spend our whole lives dealing with that whether we take time to conciously think about it or not
2. We have this crazy urge in us to find a truth in life. It goes away once we decide we believe in Yaweh, Allah, Elements, Science, or whatever we decide on.
Once we decide we all feel better. We can go on with our lives and not have that constant nagging for the Truth. We can appreciate our families, friends, activities etc because our mind can focus on them now.
It really feels good to know the Truth. And there's nothing wrong with that in and of itself.
I think the reason we fight about our truths is that some contradict each other. That's why Christians get so vehement, and why Atheists get so vehement back.
