Just curious. I listened exclusively to Christian music until I was 17.
Interesting, as I'm an atheist now.

So what are your thoughts?

he/she said that they didn't create you or anything else. Your notion of having a creator was just a clever construct (built into a being's personality) to convince you to become your own "conscious self creator" and that from the begining of time consciousness was the true creator of everything? Consciousness did this (created everything) simply because that was the nature of itself. This would also imply that you came face to face with the "ideal" form of yourself, and that consciousness was a spontainous happening brought on simply out of necessity so that their could be existence at all. How would you feel?

Why should I be so secretive? I understand that back in the day they needed to be, but nowadays? It's not like the Gardnerians kept there Traditions secret for very long. Who cares that others think we are satanistic, they are obviously ill informed.

Some Christian religious group talk about a creation that seems to preceed that recorded in the first 3 chapters of Genesis. What is this all about and where can I get more information on it?

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, Teach a man how to fish and you feed him for life.

THEN WHY THE CHARITABLE CHRISTIAN GROUPS IN AFRICA.
They are not TEACHING anything, They are just giving giving giving. THIS IS NOT THE right way. That is the LEFT way

Exodus Chapter 21, verse 20:

If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property.

Colossians, chapter 3, verse 22:

Slaves, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord. Whatever your task, work heartily...

I'm writing something at the moment and any answers would help - preferably not daft ones! This is not a question to any specific religious group, nor is it loaded. I am just trying to see what people think - the general balance, like would we overall, if it was a choice between all religions or nothing, have been better off without it, especially in this day in age? I understand it does help and save and its the focal point of many lives bringing them happiness and security, however i also understand one single religion will never exist unless it is out and out proved and while there are more than one, in the hands of humans, there will be hatred, war and pain too..So does it save more or hurt more?
I am not religious myself but don't generally have a problem with most beliefs. Just intrigued as to what people think.
Responses from all groups of religious/non-religious people would be appreciated.
