i believe religion to be none other than a wicked curse. i cannot bear the thought to affiliate with an organized group of people who believe in a specific set of ideas which occurred in the past. the reason behind my logic associates with the basic perception- there is more than one belief- so which is true? i ask this because only one can logically be true. catholic, christian, methodist, lutheran, mormon, buddhist, hindu, etc. i have constructed in my mind the reasonable ideology that the truth will never be fully discovered. i may try to search for answers, but in the end, i know nothing can ever be factually explained. in conclusion, i have chosen to be me. if this banishes me to hell, so be it. if this sends me to heaven, so be it. i'm a realist and i have faith- but i will never indulge fully into one religion that "believes" they are right because i will always ask myself- "are they?". religion is a curse that i wish to avoid in life.
