There is no correct RELIGION [POLL]
tpwigglesworth:
Talking about religion is just a huge waste of time. We can spend all day comparing Fairytale 1 and Fairytale 2, but why would we bother? There are WAY more important matters to discuss.
But you really wanna hear what I think? I doubt it, but Imma give it to ya anyway:
TRUTH: I exist.
OBSERVATIONS: Existence is concrete. Human consciousness is the result of chemical and electrical activities in the brain. Abnormal things are reported, but are to be taken with a grain of salt as most people are just plain stupid. Laws and morality were created by man and should be celebrated as a human achievement. A deity (as far as been shown) had nothing to do with it. A deity probably doesn't exist. If it does, it is probably unconscious OR it is a "universal consciousness" type of deal. Laws are relative, but should be treated as concrete. Chaos is the death of humanity.
CONCLUSION: Humans are responsible only to themselves, to others, and the world in which we live in. The God theory is outdated and largely irrelevant. Man is a product of evolution.
And that's all she wrote.
Now its time to disagree and start quoting verses out of the Bible or Quran. Know what I'm going to hear? BLA BLA BLA BLA.
LETS GET IT ON!!!

Morality most likely came into existence through feeelings and emotions and who or what created emotions or feelings can't be answered for certain.

There is no fairytale in worshipping the Creator of the universe. The only fairytale is when you get involved in supernatural events and worshipping human beings, idols, and other created things. Islam at it's core is a practical religion, and the Qu'ran is a practical book.

I'm interested in hearing what you think. You expressed yourself politely, and you explained how you feel; it can be a healthy discussion.

Yes, you exist, so why not worship the one that created you? So then you may say "so I should worship my mom?" No, I'm talking about before your mom, and then before that, go all the way back until you can't go back any further, and worship that. That is who Allah is. Allah is the first, the last, the eternal absolute.

But who is it that keeps the chemical and electical activity in our brain going? And who is it that keeps our hearts beating without us even thinking about it? Ask yourself who is sustaining you? Because the power that is sustaining us is the only power truly worthy of worship. The Arabic word for this is Allah, but in English they say God.

You have a responsability to the one that created you. Who would be more worthy of our devotion than the Creator of the universe?

^^^ the one that that always had my mind puzzled about islam was the view of evolution. there is an abundance of evidence stating evolution existed. personally i don't believe it because of my faith, but it does make an interesting argument.
