The problem with hardcore extremists in any religion is that they tend to forget the real reason why they are following their faith in the first place.
i believe the main the underlying lesson common amongst all religions is to give us humans a way in which we can live together peacefully, selflessly, and respectfully.
this is obviously not happening in our world.
(hence i'm an ex-christian.)
extremists focus on why their religion is better than another, and other insignificant things such as how there sex life will effect their chances of getting into heaven. its not what it is about.
are u telling me that, if everyday i try live my life in a way that will have a positive effect on those around me, if i respect other people and all life around me, and one day when i die, and god turns out to be real, he is going to smite me and send me to the depths of hell for doubting his existence?
not the kind of god i want to follow anyway.
but hey thats just my view
Is it normal to feel this way about religion??
