I'm not sure if I've come into this argument yet...but it doesn't matter, because my opinion changes so many times. This is what I think my final opinion is:
No matter what people say, no matter how beautiful they can create it to be, no matter how many lives it has changed, Christianity is just an excuse for people to think they are better than others (I'm not saying that all Christians think they're better than others.)
And I've also recently found myself enlodged in existenialism, which I've added to my list of what my 'religion' is. (It really freaked me out. I thought I was going crazy...when was this...yesterday? Because this one guy posed the theory that everything is how we see it, therefore we can see anything we want, and I tried it out, and it was true, if I really wanted to, I could see something completely different, and the writer also described a feeling of nausea when this happened, and I felt it to, but when I stopped doing it, it went away. Then there was also the theory that you can make anything into an object of joy...and I found myself smiling just because I was touching a table...very freaky...okay, done ranting.)
I thought, 'If there really is a God, why do we have to listen to him?" Because isn't God's purpose to add purpose to life? And, I personally think that purpose is meaningless. Guns may be made for killing, but they would make great paperweights too, purpose had nothing to do with existence.
So...probably none of that made sense. Sorry, as I said, I've been really getting into exitentialism.
