Fundamentalist religion, no. But holy books can reveal a lot of eternal truths about human nature and morality.

Myth-based beliefs in general and religion in particular are harmful to one's perception of reality and that can NEVER be good.

Religion isn't my thing. But I can see it bettering some lives. My grandmother is very religious and tries to cram it down my throat, but I politely rebuff her. She genuinely just wants what's best for me, and I understand that, but religion is not my answer.

Religion only offers delusion for hope's sake .. Science and Music are my idols.

No. Yes. I'm not a card carrying atheist and if people want to be enslaved by religious beliefs then amen to that. Their choice.

I'm a long time atheist.

Some brothers are religious, I respect their choice, but I personally find zero evidence for the existence of any god.

Scientific fact, critical thinking, observable reality are paramount. New discoveries, exploration and implementation of STEM has continually made religions less and less relevant as centuries roll by.

Even if they have some value, that doesn't in the slightest suggest that they're true.

I can't imagine why someone would willfully choose to believe in something with no evidence behind it just because it makes them feel better. That's babyish and cowardly in my view. Better to deal with life head on.

I am an atheist and Egoist. I have a philosophy that can be loosly seen as a religion.

I dont advocate mainstream religons. But thats me.

Destiny to me is a very stagnant limited mindset. On the other hand, Free-will,to me is more pragmatic and complex thus it seems more versatile and creative only if one takes the most logical measures.

Simpsgalore · 2017-09-29T21:33:10+00:00

I'm sure it does.

Buzz_a_Tower · 2017-09-30T04:40:35+00:00

I believe in God, I'm not overly religious where I go to church every Sunday and follow all the rules. I do just fine keeping my relationship with God to myself as I think that's how it should be.

There is no god but His Noodliness, and Ragu is His Prophet.

Nagamagi · 2017-09-30T08:37:14+00:00

I've read of instances where atheists that found religions that align with their core beliefs greatly enhanced their lives. So yeah it can work.

Check out Professor Jordan Peterson's biblical series on Youtube.

Religion as such is Bullshit, clearly recognizeable as such by their insistence on "faith" without evidence.

SJWsPlzDie · 2017-10-01T00:00:40+00:00

Religion is a cancer that has held humanity back for thousands of years. Imagine what kind of incredible technology we would have today without idiots brainwashed by fairy tales sabotaging scientific progress.

If god exists, it clearly isn't interested in intervening in anything we do. So effectively, there is no god even if one exists.
