Religion should be treated as philosophy, a code to live by. They all basically say the same shit at their cores. Murder is bad, boning the married lady is bad, stealing is bad etc.
Good on ya if you want to live like that, you are an upstanding citizen, but this is all just early ways of governing people.
Smart people who believe pretty much the same shit as I do have to have the bugaboo in the sky to make them do things.
Jesus' teachings were rad, the guy was awesome, we get it. Live like him, try to help out poor folks and the disabled. Donate your time and money to making the world a better place. Gandhi was rad too, as is the Dalai Lama.
If any of the Christians in America lived in India they would be Hindu, if they lived in Saudi Arabia they would be Muslim. It is all the same shit. Treat people like you want to be treated. You get what you give and all of that. The division between all of these people over disagreements that happened thousands of years ago is retarded. If you grew up in Boston, you're probably Catholic, if you grew up in Arkansas you are probably Pentacostal or some born-again style of Christianity. The ideas are basically the same. Get over it.
