If you cannot defend your religion then your religion does not make sense. You only keep your beliefs to stay “closer to the herd.” That doesn't make you a coward, but how else can you reach your potential if you just do what your momma tells you to?

I keep my religious beliefs because I have been thrown out of the herd, and found that God was the only one left there with me. So I gave my heart to Him. And I could defend Him for an eternity, there is nothing that you can say that I can't refute with His word.

My religious beliefs (that there is nothing to such) are defensible on the basis of logic and evidence, and I adhere to them because I prefer to think logically. Popular opinion has utterly nothing to do with it. One of the responsibilities inherent in being a genius is to question everything, and build up a philosophical system based on facts rather than the opinion of the crowd, since the vast majority know less than I do.

how can a man with flawed words even attempt to describe his God with flawed words? Point being, if you are trying to defend a religion you're time and worship is in the wrong place.

When I see the herd in my binoculars I start to get anxious and can't catch my breath. So nothing I believe to be true is to give me SECURITY.

i rejected my mother's religion for one closer to what i truly felt in my heart and what made more sense to me.
i keep to myself on a spiritual level and don't push my religion on others, as what works for me may not work for u or anyone else.

What I think of as "cowardly" is to attack from behind an avatar and fake screenname.

I'm unmoved by your question. Have you got anything new?
