THOUSANDS OF RELIGIONS
When so many exist, the argument without one word is, "my is better than yours." So much confussion before the face of God. A person could know the bible ten times over while you would be using up valuable time, as one only has one life to live. You would not be able to learn one thing from the bible that any religion needs to know, if you found a mistake in any one of the 1000, it would never be corrected in your life time.

Yes, it is confusing; esp. here in America where so many churches keep splitting and splitting and developing THEIR interpretation of the Bible--get kind of out of hand.
I think if Jesus were to come in our time he would give us the same hard time when He came to the Jews of His day. He would scold the wicked, correct the sinner, forgivingly; rid the institutions of that which is NOT of God's will, and demand ONCE AGAIN, that we worship God "in Spirit and inTruth."

You'd think if God were real He would want us to be in awe of his work - he would want us to pursue knowledge and study of this "creation" of his...and want us to discover things like evolution, the cosmos, the wonders of guiltless premarital/casual sex...So that we could see how awesome he is. Organized religion acts in opposition to these things. Conclusion? Organized Religions Hate God.

yes he would. God has always organized his people in such a way to maintain the needs of them. That system has only worked when persons apply bible rules and regulations.
Now most of the worlds religions especially christian,/ catholic, have not applied the bible rules in their so called faith.

what creator ?
Incidentally, why was it that none of all the pious ever discovered psycho-analysis? Why did it have to wait for a completely godless Jew?
