i am an atheist and interested, mostly in why people are religious. i am biased i admit because personally i dislike organised religion. i believe it generally acts as a force of social restraint and prevents real social change and the destruction of inequality. do you have evidence/ a view to suggest otherwise?

Excorcism is a subject that is quite ignored in the Western culture, but honestly it is real and happens every where else in the world. After watching movies like "The Exorcist" and "Exorcism of Emily rose" I have grew to wonder why people in the west find it hard to digest the idea of being possesed?

The church of england is the second biggest land owner in the uk. Why, now , with church attendances dwindling , sell some of their land, stop begging for money, and enable houses and flats to be built on this land? Mabye then with fewer churches , there would be the illusion that they are fuller! And they can mend all them leaky roofs ....

I am getting into a situation in which I would have power both legal and extra legal over others. My morality is coming in the way. I think power always corrupts. Can power ever have a legitimate place in the life of a spiritual man? What precautions should be taken while exercising it.

Would they believe that god created squirrels in his own image?
Would they say that there is no way squirrels evolved from lower creatures?

why did jesus tell us that the kingdom of god is within each of us? instead of praying to supernatural god's that we never know of why cant we follow the humane teachings of jesus that in turn will teach us to discover the god within us.
why do we forget the sermon that jesus preached on the mount, where he says that ' blessed are those who have mercy on others, for they shall be called children of god'?

How you take sex in your religion when the boy and a girl are not married? Is this allowed? Do you take it as a sin? Secondly after marriage is there any restriction in sexual relationship with your wife like oral sex or anal sex? or does it has any impact on the status of your marriage spiritually?

Jesus' message was very obvious: Serve God with your whole being and love one another. That was the core of his teachings.

He is called "the great interpreter" by some, yet I don't see any similarities between his "interpretations" and Jesus' teachings.So what did Paul/Saul interpret?

``None of those who call me `Lord' will enter the kingdom of God, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven."
[ Matthew 7:21 ]
``...Go to my brothers and tell them, `I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.' '' [ John 20:17 ]

They represent the largest amount of fornicators, adulterers,porn watchers,..etc
they tell you that they ask for forgiveness from Jesus...but It is only words saying"God forgive my sins"....God sees the heart of a man...he is forgiven only when he really wants to change...he repents...he decides not to repeat his sinful acts...it is a sincere feeling






Dont be misjudged by the title Im not a Christian hater...it is just that that I want to make a point here
