General thoughts and idea about religion

It annoys me when people say 'So and so is looking down upon us from Heaven'.....says who?

Also, why do people assume heaven or it's location, obeys the same physics of the natural world?

Who's to say the after world location isn't a billion miles away?

But back to point, it annoys me when people assume that just because we knew someone or even loved them, that they're automatically in 'Heaven'...again says who?

You'll have two groups or families that hate each other, yet when a person dies from either group, it is assumed both have ascended into heaven to be around the same god, even though the two couldn't stand one another while alive on Earth?

I tell you what, since it seems everyone from gangsters to killers, to liars, to just out and right nasty people who are mean, seem to all end up going to heaven, I'm not sure if I want heaven to be my final destination if filled up with the same people that stunk up the planet Earth, people who made no attempt to grow and change while alive, cause all their going to do is bring their same foul views about others, bigotry and more into the next world.

But if heaven filled to the rim with the same people who stunk up the planet Earth, why would it be heaven, if anything it would be hell.

To me, looking back, religion makes you feel guilty of being you while in the prime of your life



The older I get, the more religion just seems like hot air to me, full of future empty promises that never come true.

And while in your prime, religion tends to make you constantly be ashamed of feelings, ambitions, all in nature have, but then religion comes along and puts a harness on you and says 'stay small', let 'god' (the person controlling you, or the church controlling you), stay big, and when old, broke, and about to die, when all of us have left you, at least you'll go to heaven, but only if you tithe.

However though, I will say there are certain health or even moral disciplines within religion that aren't all that 'bad', and probably beneficial to society, to some extent.

Not physically hurting others, is a good thing, but then religion comes along and says 'God says to hurt those others cause they're sinful'

But in fairness one doesn't need religion to justify brutality towards others, just look at today's society and the level of crime that occurs out there being committed by people whom are neither religious or atheist, but somewhere in between.

Bottom line of this post is I don't have to answers for others, I can only summerize things based on the outcome and experience of my own fateful path.

To me, one of the loneliest feelings in the world is when a Christian tells me 'I love you through Christ'...

To me that = 'I really don't love you at all, in fact you're a big fat zero to me, I despise you actually, but because of the power of Christ, I'm able to tolerate you, but only when under the spell of 'god', but should gods spell ever wear off, I'll go back to not liking you'.

That's what 'I love you through Christ' means to me.

Now I run from such types.

Sometimes I feel like god just hates me

And as I was talking those words to self while walking down hall back to room, large roach appeared out of nowhere, very gross and sick.

But speaking of 'god', why would god create such a disqusting creature? and then put it on the same planet as man?

None of it adds up.

And of course every question like that you ask of a Pastor or church type, the answer is always 'It's due to sin'

God could of ended this crap long ago, but instead just lets it drag on and out.

The church use to say 'Well god wants as many people to get saves as possible, is why he or it hasn't returned yet'

Well to that I respond, seems more and more people aren't getting saved than are, so the math of salvation seems to be going in reverse.

I wonder if I'll even live through the night

And I also observe and notice that many people simply use religion, their belief in a god, to actually continue and justify doing evil against others.

I go onto sites where people dabble in conspiracies and all, and are very hateful, in the name of god.

Of all places for me to find inspiration, the last place I'd expect to find it is in the movie 'Thor', (Marvel Comics), but I see so many paralels between this movie, Thor, and the own dynamics of my own life.



And I'm not just saying that to compare myself with Thor.

It's not so much Thor as it is the treacherous back story that surrounds him of betrayal and jealousy, lies and fibs.
