God is a fairy tail, it's not real. Weak minded people believe in him because they are weak and scared of death and can't accept that death is the end, there is nothing else.

That belongs on a poster or something... well said

Religion was invented for a few obvious reasons:
1) People wanted to know what happens after death, and believe there was something more
2) People wanted to make sense of the world; where we came from, etc
3) People needed a set of rules to keep themselves out of trouble

Some of it made sense at the time, like don't eat pork... they didn't understand the reason why people were getting sick after eating pork was because of Trichinella Spiralis... or that cooking the pork to a proper temperature would kill the parasite... so they wrote "don't eat pork because god said so" to keep their followers from getting sick

A lot of the old testament rules are based on a lack of science... though some of them make no sense at all, like not being allowed to wear clothing made from 2 different fabrics... why?  Whose dumb idea was that one?

Excellent written ....
So far, it has been proven that all religions have been made only by the thought of how they have more followers, and none of them do not bother to become a better human in general.
