Im not even religious but based on that post I could shame you in a debate, complete lack of understanding on how the majority of religious people approach the bible. Meh, keep thinking what you want. Back to the show.
Most religious people don't have the courage that there are things they can't not yet or never understand (lack of knowledge and intelligence). It is easier to rely on an almighty entity.
Some, not most. Its more complex than that. And Ill add that Fundamentalist beliefs that you referring to are in the extreme minority and more of a recent phenomena.
Ill leave it at that, not the thread to get into it.
