Karma, The Enlightened One

Here is how I became atheist/agnostic, if there is anyone out there struggling with religion I hope this helps

1. if God exists and his goal is to be worshiped/loved/followed, the we would see monotheism all over the world, but we dont. This suggests that either God's primary purpose is not to be worshiped, or that God doesnt exist.

2. The Bible is horribly unreliable. This is a story passed down hundreds of generations before it was finally written (separately, might I add) and then translated multiple times. Not to mention that it was assembled in its final form by some monk who CHOSE what chapters to stay and go.

3. The Bible is inconsistent. If this REALLY is God's holy book then why can people pick and choose verses? Many people reject that wearing two cloths is an abomination, or that creation is literal, but if you can reject that, what is stopping you from rejecting everything else.

4. The Bible is suspiciously reflective of man's hatreds/values. I.e Women were made from men and sinned first, therefore are less important than men. Homosexuals are evil. Sick, injured or disable people are unclean and have sinned. Also "Our race is the chosen race" (both Jews and Arabs),"Ours is the promised land", heathens must be cleansed, the unknown is evil, science is blasphemy. Hmm smells like human to me...

What do you think?

Of course, im not saying lower class people are unintelligent or have heaps of kids, but it is a stereotype. Afterall look at the simpsons, the redneck family has like 20 kids. Is this a negative impact of society?

I will be moving to university next year and will be living in self catered apartments which cost $250p/w (Australian). what would be the range that I should be expecting to pay for food per week? Perhaps if anyone has already lived in self catered apartments could you tell me how much you payed roughly per week? Assume that I can eat cheap food aswell :P

Because in Christianity they say that Jews expect a Messiah but they do not believe it is Jesus, they are still waiting. Is this true? If ur Jewish please say so, so that I know ur answer is 'reliable' (no offence to anyone else)

I constantly hear people complaining about the human race. If you had the choice would you? You would potentially saved the environment but cause the extinction of your own specie and millions of deaths.

ie, do you think that the native American Gods (I dont know any cause im Australian) are the same as God in the Christian, Jewish and Muslim sense. Do you think that you can get to heaven by living a good life but believeing in a different god? YES or NO preferably. No hateful comments, atheist or theist...

Stupid Christians saying everyone is going to hell,

Stupid Muslims saying the world will soon be Muslim,

Stupid Atheists saying that there is no God,

I mean seriously? Lets be a bit more concerted in how we represent our beliefs. Why is EVERYBODY so imposing on everyone else? Can't we just accept each other's beliefs and move on?
