Religion is man made. There is no any specific details God created religion in the Bible.

God is a personal and a compassion relationship. That's why we have Jesus Christ


Religions tend to get in the way that would disrupt God and Man.

@FreestyleArt
How do you mean? You do know that Jesus was a Jew....?

@Marganitbatadam he was yes. Jesus wasn't meant for any organized religion. Jesus didn't tend to the synagogue to worship but he only heal the sick ones there. The Pharisees usually pressuring people into their Religion.

@Emosaur Define religion. If you mean world view then you are absolutely right. Your atheist religion allegedly doesn't have a god but it is still a religion. If you mean some sort of ritual or worshiping God then you are wrong. Talking to Yahweh and being in the presence of Yahweh does not require a ritual or gathering of any sort. You talk with Him as you talk with a friend.

@Emosaur Actually it is not as restricted as silly people like you want to believe.
Merriam Webster puts it this way"
1a: the state of a religious
a nun in her 20th year of religion
b(1): the service and worship of God or the supernatural
(2): commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance
2: a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices
3archaic : scrupulous conformity : CONSCIENTIOUSNESS
4:[b][u] a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith[/u][/b]
Number 4 suits you to a tee since all you ever do is bang on about your atheism. Well assuming you don't get pressed on it then you revert to being an agnostic then a spiritual agnostic then..... Too funny You don't even know the definitions of the words you use.

@Emosaur Too FUNNY!!!! Not a system of beliefs. It fits atheism to a T! You believe there is no god. You believe that there is no reason for us to be here. You believe that morality is for morons. You believe that your belief is superior to all other beliefs. You really aught to do a bit of soul searching if your think you have no beliefs.
