i think religion has just come into being so that people have something to fear... but will this ever die? or people will just fear something else?

I don't think relegion is ever going to die.

As individuals, we will be judged in our lives by the totality of our actions. Not one thing will stand out. And I think that's how we get judged by our colleagues and that's how we get judged by the good lord. We just like being judged. That's why we are human.

religion die..no people want something to believe in ..

if u follow back in time ... you will seee that religion was nothing more than what todays political laws are ..ways to control the people.  everywhere has to have standards or people would be crazy! not all but alot would ...

Is there a God ? Is any religion true?

Look at the bible .. prostitution was ok back then.. hmm? sounds like a greedy mans desire book to me ..

What about the quarm (sp) ...more control more women for a good man ..ditto to the above

Well.............I dont want to debate this but I find myself reading this post often...
I grew up with the scared catholic .. if i dindt believe/ behave i would go to hell! ..and God is all loveing and forgiving ...........then why would I go to  hell let alone pergutory?  
I dont think Catholic schools are the same in India as they WERE here.  I grew up with the skirt has to be past the knees ..socks have to match ur shirt.. vest must be pressed.... demerits and merits .. well i dindt get many merits I was a stink of a kid .. i spent one school year trying to get kicked out of the private school I went to .. my family all went there .. they all graduated from that school.. they were all babtised in the church ..they all had there first comunion there ............"I REMEMBER YOUR MOM< I REMMBER YOUR AUNT" I was the kid that would say ...........I DONT CARE GOOD FOR YOU>>>NOW DO YOU KNOW ME?
I asked questions and was sent to the priest house ... and he made me kneel and pray aloud for a day instead of having school... FYI his library was hard wood floors!
Did I learn anything? Nope .. still  dont understand the religion ..
Once old enough I wrote and signed my papers denouncing my religion ......my family told me they were going to disown me ... that once catholic always catholic ........blaaaaaaaa

If you believe in purgutory ..then send me your money Ill pray your way out! Same thing the church believes!

Religion...will never die, there are too many people who rely on the financial gain that religion can bring to them. I mean look at Scientology...this is now established religion in the United States that has made the rich richer (kind of like our government) and the people who invest or believe into this religion poorer. There has been documentation that suggests people are mortgaging their houses to be apart of this religion.

I think organized religion is relatively scary at times. It doesn't matter what religion you are under, Roman Catholic, American Catholic, Baptist, Scientology, whatever it is you who must review the message they are trying to give and see if it holds true with you.  If you think that this religion is helping you and it gives you faith and something to believe in than I'm all for it.

But personally my experience is most churches make me very irritated because the churches rule by fear and intimidation. I know that I am one with God and and if I want to communicate with him then I have my own ways of doing that...and I don't need to pay someone to pray for me. I can do it myself.

Personally - I don't think people like to be judged.  But I think we judge ourselves alot.  Whose to say who we are suppose to be? What life we are to live? How much money should we be making? What religion to follow? No one has the right to judge another....even though it happens all the time and every person has their own biases.  All these decisions are of a personal matter and whatever direction we choose should be no concern of another.
