Some people really (I’m gonna say) “hate” religion. I have
been having a discussion with one of my online “anti-religion” atheist friends,
for several days now. He insists that
religion (in particular, Christianity) is just a “pack of lies” (my words) and
sees absolutely no good use for it; that it’s way more harmful than helpful to humans.
Maybe you also consider yourself an anti-religious atheist. Heck, I myself am an “agnostic atheist” (don’t
know, but don’t happen to believe in any god(s)). For the record, I’m also (spiritually) a Pantheist
(recognize/connect with what I refer to as a “God Process”).
OK, enough on our religious bios. Here is the comprehensive question:
If no Jesus or God exists, does that really matter? Isn’t their legacy that was left behind the thing
of worth? If those sentiments
hold human value (don’t kill, steal, lie, honor each other, do unto
others, etc.), what does it matter if there was no actual Jesus or God? Aren’t the teachings, and the encouragement
to follow them, the point?
Weren’t Jesus’ words much more important than the man (or believing he
was God in the flesh)?
Please think about it more deeply, and then give your
thought on this, my POV.
Thanks for posting and recommending. :)
