RELIGIONS

I have no issue with belief systems.  I have issue with religions and the way gullible people blindly follow what the leaders say and that they demand that their followers have to convert others to their way of thinking.

For instance some of these religionists blindly believe that the Earth is only about 4000 years old. And no matter how you argue with them they will tell you that it is scientifically proved to be obly that old.  I wonder what science that would be?  The science of thumbsuck.

Even Judaism, the founding religion for both Christianity and Islam, acknowledges that the Earth is older than their 7000 year old religion which dates from the Circumcision of Abraham at 96 years old.

Religions are for the gullible, non-thinking, lazy people.  People who want to be led and want to be told what to do.  Most of the Christian religionists that I have come into contact with will happily quote a random verse from their bible and then I will ask them to tell me what is in the verse before and in the verse after, which nine times out of ten contradicts the verse quoted.

I have issue with people who tell me I have to believe what they believe.  I question everything, because I can and because I want to.

Recently I went to the memorial service of a man who was a confessed atheist.  His family decided to do a religious service with a minister officiating.  If  there is a life after death I had an image of him sitting at the end of the pew, beer in hand laughing his head off at the religionists praying for him.  If he has gone somewhere else I reckon he has gone to the big motor bike place in the sky.

I declare that when I die that there must be NO religious minister of any religion near me.  Cremate me, and scatter me to the winds and drink yourselves to a standstill with whatever money there is in my estate.  

DO NOT PRAY for me as there is nothing to pray for. I don't believe!!
