Ok let me ask you a question. What do you believe?
I believe that there is no evidence of currently having or previously having had, a god. It's all based on a book that was written many years ago in a radically different time, before science existed/was able to explain exactly how the world works and how it has evolved over time. It was easier and more plausible in these times to pin it all on some 'greater power' that was doing it all. These beliefs have just continued to this day which I find incredible given our proof in the form of science.
I am fine with people having a faith, as it's up to them to believe what they want. If they want to be led by something/someone up there, go right ahead. It's the questioning of others and why they don't believe and forcing their religion on people that I despise.
For example an old Uni friend of mine was a dedicated church goer and was heavily involved in 'spreading the good word of the lord' and basically said I should believe to make myself a good person. He simply didn't take it that I didn't believe because I saw no proof so why would I believe it? He went abroad to impoverished countries, not to do charity work and actually help people but to go round the poor saying god loved them and they would be ok, when clearly they wouldn't be.
My grandmother goes to church every Sunday and admittedly doesn't mention it around my family, as she knows it would be falling on deaf ears. I have found that some of her church are the most judgmental and bitter people I have ever met. Surely that goes against the Christians faith of seeing good in people and not judging them? Its not just limited to that select group either but the wider church population too. My girlfriends grandfather is a retired minister and he is a lovely man and agrees that the church needs to come into the modern world and see it for what it really is.
I find it equally incredible that amount of 100% non-religious, never been to church type people that get married in a church. I find that entirely hypocritical. If you don't believe, I would say its insulting to Christians to use it to get married in, as its effectively treating it as a room for hire.
None of the above is aimed at anyone in particular, its just my thoughts on the subject. I respect people stances on the subject but I have some pretty strong feelings on it. As Fry says, I do not see how a world filled with such abject misery can be overlooked by a god that is supposed to bring good to the world and its people.
