God and Religon? Honestly, when it comes down to this, I have mixed feelings about the believing portion of it.
For as long as I can remember, I've been a Christian. A Christian who attends Sunday masses daily sitting in the chapel and praying to God. Sure, I don't mind praying to God after eating the Communion Bread. The thing is, I'm just not really one of those believy kinds. And I've seen people who pray in front of Mary's statue right after mass.
The thing is, I feel as if religon should be a part of everyday life. In a sense, religon makes us have faith and feel more open to one another. Meeting new people, talking about our lives with them, makes me want to go back there. Even if it may not be really for God. And even if in my mind, God may be this imaginary father who exists for the sole purpose of hearing our troubles, hopes, and talk of the week.
I'm not sure about other religions, for I'm not too familiar with them. But without it, I feel as if emotions swirl around and stay swirled. Emotions that can't be shared in front of others. Then where will the person turn to? It makes a person too closed off, especially when they're not in a good time.
And I suppose many closed off people in the world wouldn't be good. Not good at all.
Anyone care to go against this?
Onwards!
