...believing that a book is true because it says it is, even though it was written by people thousands of years ago who believed the world was flat and lacked the knowledge of the world we have today?

Well, nikola. I don't think that anyone NEEDS something false to believe in (believe as in faith). Look at the world around you. If there is no God then this is it. We should take care of this world and make it safe for the next generation.
This is impeded when people start thinking that animals were "made" to serve man, and that the rapture is coming soon so this world doesn't matter.
If you want something to believe in, believe in yourself.

Jeancommunicates, do you think a oerfect being who created the world would tell people it was flat? Wtf?
We are "smart" because of our own abilities. Religion has been against science at every corner. See also: Galileo; Darwin
