Please note, I greatly respect your belief in religion.
Also note, that the atheist in the picture is a total cuntmuffin.

But in all honesty, I can't understand how one can honestly believe in somethign such as religion. I mean, you think magic is fake and impossible. But here you are, believing that Moses spread apart a sea. And that God, created the universe.

Please don't take offense in what I said, it just feels so good to say my mind on this subject. I just truly don't understand religion. But if it helps you have a happier lifestyle, power to you!

I'd like to share in an actual peaceful conversation with you on some of the things you mentioned, but it's late here, I'm tired, and have 2 4 page papers and a math exam on Wednesday. So maybe another time, but thanks for being polite about it.

Faith is a gift that not everyone has received and that's fine, I take no offense at all good sir. But just to clarify, it is a singular omnipotent God we believe in. Religion is what we use as guidelines for worshiping him, providing a sense of community in faith, as well as moral guidelines (it's not like if you take religion away from a religious person they'll suddenly become social jackoffs, they are simply there as a reference point for times of struggle.)

About the Moses point you made, chances are it wasn't an event of "magic" that split the red sea, chances are it was a strong east wind called a "ruah" that is rare in that region. Many events in the bible can be explained with science, the great flood Noah built an ark for could have been a flash flood of the Nile river, which would have been devastating to that region. The 10 plagues of Egypt have been proven scientifically possible (it's a great documentary, can't remember it's name for the life of me). Just don't make the mistake many people make and turn religion against science, they can co-exist.

I'm not trying to convert you or change your mind, simply explaining. If you haven't already, try just looking into a religion, you may just find one that appeals to you :)

Hm, interesting facts around here. But no thank you on going into religion. I like to ponder on what the meaning of life is. The meaning of life has always been so... interesting.
