I personally do not believe there is a god. i understand people use religion and the belief in a god to have hope during hard times but I do not believe it should be used as a guide for morality. there are very few good morality advice and too many punishments, like stoneing. I also dont like some of the conservative arguments like against gays.

To each their own, just don't hurt others for thinking differently than you.

@SW-User Good advice for people on SW.

@msros not just here; in real life as well. I will never think I'm better than anyone or more important because of my faith. That's not right.

Was a way for our primitive ancestors to make sense of what they didn't understand. "How does this work?, why does this happen? Don't know. so a big fellow in the sky makes it all happen with magic". Would have helped make life abit less scary for them.

A shallow empty comfort at best, harmful and destructive at worse.

@SW-User this is actually what I meant.
I believe in none.
Find all of them interesting and worth thinking about from as many angles as possible.
Am particularly interested in why people need to believe,
how religion works in people's lives,
how it functions,
and in what ways people of different faiths can learn to live together in mutual acceptance, respect and cooperation.

It can and should be saved. Thinking we pointlessly exist then vanish just won't do.

@WildernessWriterExplorer Typical atheist stance: perceptual sloth, quick stagnation, fixation on evidence, rigging the results, and disservice to science.

@SW-User Hah! The religious answer to anything complicated is 'God done did it!!' and no more work needed.
@SW-User Actually I'm not an atheist. I just know what good evidence and research looks like and means.

It causes hate and wars. And it's not even real.

Whatever helps you sleep at night. It's no bother what people want to belive
