The problem with religion

I understand the concept of faith and the concept of God. That is fine by me and faith is as important as love or fear.

But you cannot tell me to read books written by men who think they had visions from God. The biggest analogy is modern day cult leaders.

Most of the holy books have different interpretations which change with time. Why so? Are the books too complex or are they changing interpretations as the world evolves? The answer is latter.

The real problem with religion is that not a shred of the what they all profess has ANY evidence behind it. The second biggest problem is all religions way under estimate the real complexity, splendor, mystery and beauty of the universe. Simple stories about grandfathers-in-the-sky and eternity in the clouds or in a furnace simply can’t begin to compare with the reality of the universe.
