My family and my religion, although I no longer belong to an organized religious group. I believe God is not responsible for the terrible things done to people in His name. If you think religion is bad then you obviously have not thought much about the terrible things done to the human race by atheists and humanists oriented "religions"and political orgs. All of the people killed in the name of religion since the beginning of time cannot even compare to the hundreds of millions killed this century alone by godless oriented governments. The Communists,socialists, Marxists-Leninists and Maoists have killed at least 100 million people this century and their criminal deeds barely get mentioned anywhere. Why do you suppose this is? Yet every time you turn around there is some article trashing religion, all the while the killing fields in the atheistic countries get glossed over and continue to go on killing and killing. I suppose it's ok to kill people if you're an atheist or humanist- it's expected behavior?
Is anything sacred to you anymore?

Stacy, I totally agree with you on the "religion and religious" aversion. That is why I refer to it as "spiritual and spirituality". There is a HUGE difference, IMO.
