Freedom from irrational fear and unwarranted guilt is not just a way of life for me, my good friend -- it's the difference between a life worth living and the alternative.

The freedom to think for oneself. You mention Bible, someone else says Quran. Are you so sure that the other could not possibly be right? Did you come up with that decision yourself or were you just brought up that way and were too lazy to think for yourself.
I mean nothing personal directed to you by my remark, but do you see the point I have tried to make?

It is the realization that God and almost all biblical tales are manmade creations. It feels much better to live for my family, friend, and way of life than to follow these ancient ideas. I find peace in the fact that we are all so lucky to be here amongst such a chaotic universe. Evolve, baby!

Why do you (and so many others on this site) feel the need to question (particularly in a disparaging manner) the religious beliefs of others?
God gave us all free will, so just be at peace with what you believe, and let everyone else be at peace with what they believe.

Why are all the religious types so against the possibility that the bible might just be the greatest fictional book ever written??

The desires of the flesh of course. Loosing control of ones´ own will for the purpose God´s plans for us. It is difficult for some to let God take the driver´s seat in our life, and for us to seat beside him or safely by the back seat.

A happy and calm life without fear of going to Hell or feeling the wrath of a being they may or may not believe to exist.

maybe it has less to do with being unwilling and more to do with not believeing some retarded book!

you mean the "think things through for myself instead of letting a bunch of con-men decide things for me" way of life?
