But why is it when someone mentions god some people think that you have to imagine this mythical being sitting in the clouds. If thats how you view him then fine but god can be in any form. he could be some type of a Alien force all we know. God can be in a form that we've never seen before. Whatever religion you are & view your god rather its Buddhism or a Man many call Jesus from pictures with long flowing hair. I think it simply dosent matter which one we choose to worship because were all praying to the same person..
" God " no matter how you view him.
I like to view god like i view heaven as being this nice place that everyone goes to. I dont know what heaven really looks like, I mean i have a idea on what it looks like but i honestly dont know. But i believe these things exist..

Its ignorant storys & lies thats crippled the bibles truth. Thats why you must read & stay caught up on whatever religion you are because people attempt to twist & manipulate the words as the years past. & that is why religious people are so Protective over there Religion & what they believe in.
Sad thing is its other Religious people of other Religions that tell these lies in attempts to degrade other religions. Its only when Religions start to compete like this with one another where its starting to get to a point where Younger Generations walk right into this Mosh pit & are confused on what to believe & end up Goth or having no belief. That is why i dont totally reject the idea of this video Tyrant has posted.
Great post Tyrant..
On a personal note: I think God Rules.. He's my number 1.... Who ever he is or looks like.

Personally, I do not believe in an imaginary deity anymore as I had when I was younger. When I was at the age of thirteen I myself was labeled as goth. It was a preference of lifestyle and taste to me, unlike how they are commonly looked upon. I was heavily intrigued by truth so I'd read religion on both aspects the lighter & darker side... still do but not so much anymore. I've come to the conclusion that evolution makes more sense to me at this point of time along with reincarnation. Ideas change as you age along with your thoughts as you learn but you have to question with what you learn as being true or not, you should never stop questioning nor strive to learn truth.
Human beings as Jago said manipulate and twist words as years pass which I agree with and believe strongly the same was done millenniums ago not only with religion but the history you may come to know. I don't deny a man called Jesus Christ existed but i think he was falsified into a religious form which Christianity arose from as Islam from Muhammad.
Religion to me is like a plague. It breeds irresponsibility, builds walls of beliefs that keep people from consciously evolving. You're solely responsible for every action and thought you make, your life is not in the hands of anyone else but yourself. When I think about the vast universe we live in I'm convinced we aren't the only ones, it's unrealistic to think not. We're like a micro-organism floating in just 1 galaxy out of trillions if not more in which space within that is beyond imagination. But if you're hellbent on believing in a god you have to bring to the table of what was before him.
This is just from my experience from thought and reasoning with what I've come to learn over the years which will most likely keep changing.
I feel religion needs to go. The future looks very dismal if we continue this path.
