Well you get 10 points from me, so well done.
The universe has been around for billions of years. Many religious people are wakening up to the fact that all religions are just man-made bunkum developed by simplistic human intelligence.
On a universal scale, human intellect does not have the ability to understand much of what is happening, why it happened, and what will happen in the future, so to fill the gaps in their minds they substitute artificial reasoning commonly referred to as religion.
Religion is an escape from the inability to reason intellectually, and because it’s easy to play make believe, further subsets are created like the Bible, Jesus, Adam, Eve etc, in order to justify the mental illusion.
Stephen Hawking suggested that if the universe was created then it is reasonable to assume it had a creator. Since human intellect is unable to determine whether the universe was created, religion takes over and assumes it was and calls the creator God. That’s nothing more than speculative conjecture and more bunkum.

Here's your problem...
You are talking about religion.
Religion is man's way of setting rules and regulations, ceremonies and traditions to try and reach God.
Relationship is God's way of reaching us, through Jesus Christ.
You were searching in the wrong place...for the right thing (Jesus).
Grace to you and God Bless!

All "religion" is man invented. No "religion will do any one any good except make them feel or "think" they are good. But when they die they will know the truth too late.

think what you want, but without religion where would morality come from? think about it, if you grew up without parents where would you be? would you know as much as you do now if you had no outside influence to help? if people didnt have a basis for morality, what would morality be?

if you are trying to make christians mad, you are failing miserably. God doesnt speak of being part of a religion.
