How much time do you spend a week (Religious)?

I don't play with or talk to imaginary friends.

I don't spend time thinking about something that is just a figment of human imagination. I have better things to do.

Actually spending time thinking about figments of human imagination, esp. literary ones such as this can be quite beneficial. literature


I am not religious, but the closest I can find to your question is me contemplating with myself the meaning of life, the future, etc. I spend 3-4 hours a week, I guess, on this.

studying god is different

yeah, god is the imaginary friend for adults

I sometimes 'study' god in the sense that I wonder how humans came up with such a notion. It's interesting even to believers - because even if you believe in god, there is also the thought of whether it reveals itself to us, or not?

Well, if somebody returned from either hell or heaven and described the circumstances, I might reconsider. Though, since neither of this has ever happend, then why waste time to speculate on something that is invented by some freakish mind several hundred years ago ?

Oh, the poll. "0, but I am religious".

Sort of..

[JohnT]

Is something like

"Gawddammit you beyatch, get the hell out of the fast lane! Jesus Freakin' Christ, dude, what the hell is your problem? Scared of your accellerator?"

what you mean? If so, I talk to God all the time.

Exactly.

Nobody knows what happens when we die.

All human religions are wrong. Everyone who says they know what happens when we die are wrong. Anyone who says they know should not be believed in.

Furthermore, people who believe in silly things should be openly mocked and laughed at.

Dammit... we are intelligent beings capable of so much. We shouldn't be lining up in religious buildings (churches, synagogues, mosques) to pray to some imaginary "God".

IMO, people who believe in superstition and myth as truth are an insult to the rest humanity. They are no different from the caveman who worshipped fire. We need to evolve beyond religion... culturally.

It absolutely is a culture war. And intelligence and reason need to emerge victorious over ignorance and stupidity.

That's just my 2 cents.
