10 Reasons you should never have a religion
by Batman89 ina great article i stumbled across this morning http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2008/05/10-reasons-you-should-never-have-a-religion/.
while consciously pursuing your spiritual development is commendable, joining an established religion such as christianity, islam, or hinduism is one of the worst ways to go about it.
in this article ill share 10 reasons why you must eventually abandon the baggage of organized religion if you wish to pursue conscious living in earnest.. since christianity is currently the worlds most popular religion, ill slant this article towards christianitys ubiquitous failings.

@ Paris..
Yes I know that.. but I meant whatever the brain size or intellect it would make little difference to how the org is run.
The same way that having a female; Margaret Thatcher as the Prime Minster of England made it a better place.

The 10% brain size difference was a joke.
Still no matter how clever a person is when your brain washed by a cult your brain washed.

He would point out that Abraham, Job, David, Solomon, were rich men and God still blessed them...
Was it not God who gave them their riches?
I never understood why people in the past despite being violent killers, murderers, practiced incest, fornication, adultery, etc were blessed with ridiculous wealth, health and long lives.. whereas now lifelong faithful and loyal servants who practice no such things can look forward to at best maybe a winter jacket and a pair of shoes while keeping all their aches, pains and sickness..
Where did the generosity go?

Best sleep aid in the world: Plenty of exercise and physical activity! If your mind and body are satisfactorily tired it will shut itself down quite happily.

Watchtower Really Does Totally Take The Position of Jesus
by OnTheWayOut inwatchtower has said that jesus is not the mediator of anyone but for the anointed.
then they tell you that they are jehovah's organization and that the flock should obey them.. basically, the watchtower corp. and it's governing body is taking the place of jesus as the mediator for people.
christianity, even by it's name, focuses on making jesus known.

So.. if everything I read above about Jesus and the organization is true. Then when Jesus does actually return this blood guilty organization which has been lying, deceiving, blaspheming, falsely prophesying, robbing people of all truth and their relationship with God, misrepresenting and dragging the name of Jesus and all his words and promises and the name of God himself through the mud nd is probably the very 'disgusting thing that causes desolation' will in fact be blasted out of existence as described in Revelation regarding the enemies of God.
I find this idea very comforting.

Believers, do you believe in evolution?
by everchangingworld inafter leaving, i still couldn't wrap my head around evolution (after the years of seing "intelligent design" in everything around me).. there's a series of videos that give a good intro to evolution and critical thinking.
they've probably been posted here before, but, for any new members, these are worth watching.. evolution: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdddbyilel0.
