Funny, I never related religion with evil exclusively and looking back at people I met, the ones with some religious background were the ones who acted upon their principles the most. Though the principles and morals are sometimes too high to achieve 100%, 100% of the time, it's nice to know many people strive to be the best they can be at something positive. There are way too many lowlifes taking religions apart to justify their absolute selfishness and to justify harming others for me to take their side and be harmed by them in turn.
I agree with you Freeze. I am basically a Christian I guess you could say, but at the end of the day, all religions boil down to basically the same concepts, being a good person and living a good life etc. I could care less if everyone believes in God or whatever deity, it's called free will and if we were all the same and believed the same stuff, the world wouldn't be a very interesting place, LOL!

You know Ron, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Muslims...it's all the same to me. It is really not a matter of what particular religion one follows. The whole point , for me, is that people just do not seem to want to accept that they can be good (or bad) simply because they are. No invisible man in the sky..No supernatural forces of any kind. I am glad that you acknowledge that one should take responsibility for ones actions. That is important.
