Religion, probably one of the most interesting and most conflicting conversations anyone could have. I was thinking about religion a lot today especially because today is the 4th of July but I saw people actually celebrate it yesterday since today is a Sunday. Some of my friends know it already but I don't believe in any deities of any sort and you could say I'm Atheist or Agnostic but right now I'm conflicting with myself about which one that I am. I was raised LDS and baptized into the LDS Church but I never really had much interest at the time most likely because I was just a little kid having to go every Sunday with my grandparents.
I never really felt the "Holy Ghost" within me and never will. I see too much damage caused by religion that even the benefits of it won't make up for, people isolated others and gone as far as killing one other just because of their religious differences. But yes it does have benefits like It is able to bring comfort to those without answers by giving them some, it gives a basic list of things that are generally considered good and bad which help teaches the follower, and it can help a person's mind by giving them one more point of view. So in some cases some people do want religion in their lives for the better and some don't see any need for it like me.
The closest thing to god like figure metaphorically is my own mother she is better to me than any other "GOD" out there she's the one that brought me into this world, gave me knowledge on what is wrong and what is right in this world she out does any "GOD" out there. Hope you guys like my first post I plan on posting more even if no one reads them I just like to spread my word about the things that go on in everyone's lives.
