as far as organized religion goes, i agree with juju that its completely separated from logic. because lets face it, logic doesnt bring in nearly as much money as emotion.

i left organized religion long ago because of this (amongst other things). i didnt want church to entertain, i wanted it to enlighten. and i sure as shit dont need to be told who to vote for from the pulpit. i still believe, and i still consider myself a christian. but i will not finance or support a church which uses peoples emotion to make a profit. thats job belongs to hollywood and sally struthers.

my belief boils down to two things:

1. the golden rule (do unto others, blabh blah blah)
2. said best by salma hayek in dogma:

Quote:
When are you people going to learn? It's not about who's right or wrong. No denomination's nailed it yet, and they never will because they're all too self-righteous to realize that it doesn't matter what you have faith in, just that you have faith. Your hearts are in the right place, but your brains need to wake up.
