without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too? — Douglas Adams
Why does everything beautiful, incredible, life-altering, moral, sensational, honest it is immediately hijacked by religion?

hijacked by religion?
You can't see the beauty of the garden for the weeds.
When you really know what the garden is and know what you are to look for, the beauty surpasses religion.
You have a spirit at peace and harmony with the architect of that garden.
Religion is dry and empty. But when you know the gardener, The beauty is even more precious.
A book is just a book til you know the author. Then the book takes on life and character when seeing it from the authors eyes.
A garden is just a garden until you meet the gardener.

Photosynthesis is a lovely thing, said Satthy to the child; Chaos reigns in the faraway place where timid minds are wont to believe there are - amongst the circumferences of fungi - beings that will steal children away within these gardens where the Phenomenon of Light takes place!
What are these beings? asked the child
Some Tellurian invention, Satthy replied; the Tellurians like to imagine things for themselves, much like a king who dismisses countless troubadours because its not the hymn or rota he was desiring, although the music was beautiful nevertheless. One must look upon a garden as the beauty of photosynthesis- a phenomenon that the Sun holds dear. There are no beings below the dirt, just plantlife. Why must Nature beckon Herself to meet the needs of jarred imagery?
Are the Tellurians the Guardians of Chaos and Cacophony? asked the child.
No, Satthy said. Although it seems that way, only Time shall tell of changes they make to their stories. The legends change every 500 years. What a strange culture they create.

I hate to be the one to burst your bubble, but God created Gardens in the first place. There is no such thing as fairies, and you my Friend are hijacking religion...we had everything beautiful, incredible, life altering, moral, sensational and honest long before you were born...His name is Jesus.

Some believe that God created the earth and heavens and sits back and watches it evolve. I believe God is always creating like an artist. A day is like 1000 hours to God and 1000 years is a day. Time has no meaning for a supreme being. Isn't nice to think that those beautiful gardens and Sky were made for our pleasure and His? It's easier to be positive than negative, Try it!

There's a big difference between seeing fairies, and believing God made the beauty. Christians love to praise what was created by God for the glory of God. We don't mean to "hi-jack" your moments, we just want to thank the Lord for the beauty in our lives.

I see it as the wonder of the Universe. And contemplating the shear vast size and distance and the number of stars that no being could ever conceive, Its to big, beautiful and violent. That if I god did conceive it. It wouldn't matter. Why all that space?

You've got me... never read anything about fairies etc. in Genesis when God spoke things into existence, or anywhere about such things when I read through to Revelation<><

isn't it enough to have your own opinion without having to share it, uninvited, with others?
why does everything beautiful, incredible, life-altering, moral, sensational, and honest, immediately get spit on by atheists?

because there are so few reasons to believe, if it was something good it just HAD to have been faith in christ (just an example) right? god forbid some wierd sort of laws of nature that we fail to even begin to realize are even there for us to comprehend are the reason we are all here. the human mind searches fro coincidences in everything, and sometimes it finds them where they arent meant to be.

Because religion wants to take every joy in life and bend it to religion's control. Kinda like Sauron did in the Lord of the Rings.
