Is that because of a book the Jews wrote about themselves, to themselves, then sold it to the world as written by God, that book? The book full of mumbo jumbo and whacko claims you'd think Jack Hershey wrote it? The book that claims "Take the narrow road, the road less travelled", but Christianity is a road of global marketing, televengelists, hundreds of fucking door knockers all claiming theirs is the narrow road and you need to join us, the great unwashed heading for heaven. The book where 'God' uses fake fraudulent lying mankind as His salesmen, if you don't step in line and join this line of fakes and frauds and deceived missionairies - "Your off to hell for eternity after 70 years on earth", meanwhile fucking good ol' Satan is having 1000' of years of freedom - that book?
Whatever you do, don't question the Bible, nor question your clergy. That would be an affront to 'God' and He wouldn't like that one little bit.
What I particularly like about christianity, is living the life under the sword of Damocles. It's a wonderful feeling of freedom, step out of line and you're doomed. Now if you question the bible or your clergy this would be considered insulting, there is a high probability - not worth the risk - your ticket into heaven gets stamped "CANCELLED - This is now a ticket to hell". You see, there is no third choice, heaven or hell and a wandering mind from church doctrine is sinful.
You're right this is true for many religions. And it's sad that nobody in their right mind can dig for answers themselves. But whenever I have questions I ask and they will willingly tell me everything I need to know, or I do research and find out myself. Do I understand everything? No I don't, but that doesn't mean I just give up on it either, because I believe everything I have learned so far has been accurate. I ENCOURAGE you to ask questions and find out for yourself, and anyone that tells you, "Oh your not allow to do this or you will go to hell!" Is a religion you probably want to stay away from. Not all religions are the same, and most are there to take your money. I haven't given 1 cent to the organization I go to and every time I see people there they warmly accept me with open arms. Have a good day
