    god has very little to do with the daily lives of most people.

    religion has a very strong hold on the majority of people across the world.

    more and more religion has left behind the tenets that have to do with godliness or Christlikeness. kindness, love, mercy, gone gone gone

    religion is about power, it always has been, but its not as masked about it as it used to be, its flagrant. i don't think its near its end either.

    i couldn't agree with you more. I do think that the worlds relgious systems will have their day of reckoning, but who knows when.

    I had the same thought recently. Religion loves to define god. Give him emotions and such. Don't lose hope though. I think most of us are examples of people that left religion. I know that personally Its going to take an act of god to get me to join another religion. HA!
