If you really want to discuss religion, I have mentioned I attended a religious university. I have also read Joseph Campbell and watched Zeitgeist. They pretty much removed any "mystery" from religion by citing the sources of the most popular Biblical notions. Christianity is a religion heisted from other much-older religions. It's all plagiarism.
How anyone can watch Zeitgeist and afterwards still 100% believe in the symbolic and allegorical myth that is the Christian religion is beyond my comprehension as a human being with a reasonable level of intelligence.
I had the bible pegged as nothing more than a book of allegorical fables before I hit my teens.
But we don't GET IT, OP. hahaha
Yeah. It is entirely beyond me. I have no comprehension of blind faith. I don't see how people can still ascribe to the same beliefs if they have read much history or science. I think some people need it.
I don't try to change anybody's mind. I would rip my hair out if I really tried. Logic fails where organized religion begins.
