Religion

[Naamandre3]

Guess it’s time for my view about things.

I am a follower of the somethingism.
That means i believe there is "Something" up there after i die.
I would call myself an atheist but.

I cannot get around the fact when you die.
You cannot hear, breath, touch, feel, see, etc.
Think about it for a second .. wait you won’t be able to do that also.
The thought is just pretty absurd so that’s why i say there is something.

Now i've done several studies in religions around the world.
And to my conclusion they come down to the same line, they were made to create order in a then currently unstable society. They used a god person to 'punish' people to make them following the laws of society. Now the only religion that pretty much springs out of this band is buddism seeing they teach you you are nothing there is nothing. and accepting there is nothing leads to peace.

But even that is also a way to 'cope' with the thought i have trouble with (The one i stated above). and thus also comes in the same line (in my eyes) for giving people a handle to cope with things.

Now about religion and the laws they have upon civilization.
It’s a fact that religion has been a tool for government people to get a hold of people.
The most famous example might be Emperor Constantine who rewrote roughly 45% of the Christian bible to his own believes and to fit in the setting of that current rome type of age.
His modified version is what christian call the real version also.

And i lost my train of thoughts.. ehm you'll have to do it with this
