Is it a safe bet ALL religion is men claiming to have secret information?
by The Dragon inis this basically the the way the game is being played?
a man steps up and claims to have been given secret information from god..concerning his thoughts and wishes for us?
the man is then an authority over his less endowed brethern.

How many people would follow or obey God if they didn't approv of His means
by The Dragon ini see this alot lately.. a person can get valuable information from someone....but they will ignore it if the person is not approved by thier chosen means of communication.

would anyone listen?

Can guesses be termed and sold as "religion" with good results?
by The Dragon inseems answers are an "end" of sorts to both guesses and problems.. i have recently came to the conclusion that "religion" in general is nothing more than self exalted leaders "guesses" into an unknown subject...that they try to sell and term as "religion".
with no good or valid argument to discredit this line of thinking...i stand behind it.. how is a person(s) bearing answers seen to those seeking answers?
how would that person(s) be seen in the eyes of those who have power and authority over others who accept their "guesses" as answers or "truth"?.

Is there anyway anyone can deny all religion is nothing more than guesses?
by The Dragon insee it all the time...and children even talking about it!.
is there any evidence that can prove all religions are nothing more than other mens guesses into the intentions and plans of god?.
we cannot even discern each others intentions or thoughts...how can someone claim to know god's?

Why is truth is so hard to find in Bible
by The Dragon ini have been studing it for years looking for answers....yet for every answer i find there is a counter to it.
the words themselves are twisted by leaders/teachers to fit their personal opinions and adgendas, as well as twisted by trying to rely on our own reasoning to understand them.. a good example would be the way our current system of laws work.. if the supreme court writes a law into the book..say for example.."evil" is anyone who does this....... it is then turned over to a bunch of undereducated enforcers to interpert and judge others they feel are "evil".
they are allowed to accuse and shoot first asking questions later.
