Religion! A Blanket!?

Question

Okay so i put that title to fool you sorry, but people who say religion is inside me! and i am jesus's friend and i speak to jesus theres only one explanation, mass schizophrenia! people that are normal non-believers who walk down the street if they were to say a man that died 2007 years ago is inside or speaking to them or is a friend in the sky would be taken to a mental asylum as a schizophrenic, why arent the religious! because theres not enough spaces!

Answer 1

Yes, but if someone on the street says "God bless you," or "Thank God," they are not considered insane but absolutely normal.

In fact, if you walked down the street and said "God did not exist," then you WOULD be called insane.

Sorry atheists, I'm not saying that that is valid proof for or against the existence of God, it's just a common sense thing that a lot of people, no matter how religious they are, do from time to time.

Answer 2

No religous people arent schizophrenic, well not all of them. They are part of the mass deceptions that are occuring every day. They are decieved because they believe in what they are being told, even when there is proof against what they are told they say the proof against is untrue. People hate being told what they believe in is wrong.
This deception occurs during childhood with all the religous garbage children are taught. That is why very few convert from one religion to another but that still occurs due to the fact that they have a belief in a higher power being in controll of everything we do.
If that was the case then jails are unfair, Joe killed those three kids because God decided that would happen so you are putting joe in jail for doing Gods work.
I wish people expecially religous people would stop holding on to methods of mass controll that where put in place 2000 years ago would wake up and realize the one major thing.
Everything that we do is all our own fault (as a species). God didnt invent the nuclear bomb. God didnt bomb Hiroshoma. God didnt vote Blair or Bush.
Religion is a form of mind controll and should be banned. Maybe then we could come up with a system of education that forces children to think of helping others rather than do nothing as its all Gods will and theres nothing you can do about anything.

Answer 3

I poke a little fun on here and I sometimes get down right defencive against organised religion.

But.....I think for some people it is a good thing. If someone goes to church or bible study (or whatever else their church does) and the get something out of it, then hey good for them. If a child molester needs to go to church to not molest children then hey keep going pervert we're proud of ya. If some need church so they don;t drink, gamble, do drugs, kill cats, beat their kids, sleep with prostitutes, then good for you degenerates keep up the good work.

Now with that said if you could do the rest of us a favour and not judge the rest that don't believe what you believe and shut the hell up about god and Jesus that would be great too.

Now go to bed you crazy Christians you got church tomorrow.

Answer 4

People are only locked up, when they pose a lethal danger to themselves and others. Religious people do not fit that criteria on average.

Answer 5

Well, either there are a LOT of schizophrenics out there...

or...

Alternatively, the spirit world is real and Jesus lives on.

Answer 6

hehe James you tell em although schizophrenia is an awful plight and we shoudn't really use it to mock others and also true its not a chosen way of life so the madness is all owned by the ones who opt for it xx
