A thunderstorm over the prairie is pretty darn relaxing. Add an extra point for it being a .gif. Add an extra point for black and white artistry shit. Minus a point for being a bit distracting.



5/10

The rotating sigs are okay I guess. So last Guild.

Seriously though I've tried very hard to stay out of the religion debate. Either get over it or move it into Off Topic people, thats where it belongs.


Naw. It is over. Pack up your chair and leave.

.And to clarify, it's not religious people that's my peeve. I still get along with people are religious fine.It's the way religion works that bugs me, the idea of following something without proof.And all the ways it's used to hurt people (Homophobia, Religious Crusaders, Rape Culture/Women as prizes, People who decide they're Atheist or learn their Gay being kicked out of home to fend for themselves, the claim that you need a religion to be a good person etc.).


Well that's good but I don't agree with "religion hurts people". Now again, I'm not going to go into in depth because this really isn't the time or place, but I'll offer my two cents.

The only problem with religion is that humans tend to make errors. Everyone has their own interpretation about everything. Now from my point of view, those homophobic people are wrong because my God teaches everyone to be accepting and loving of their fellow man and woman. But to them, they might think the gay couple down the block is wrong because there was a verse in the bible that said it was wrong even though they probably couldn't remember which bible verse it was. Or maybe they just want that gay couple to a good afterlife and try to explain to them why it is wrong.

Now we as human beings are naturally bad, but we aren't perfect. Mistakes are made and horrible things happen.

I used to be religious myself, I know why people are religious. I've lived it for most of my life.But being raised under such a thing cut me off and blinded me to so much of the world and the kind of people it has.Plus I grew up to be a very "Give me reasons, not just faith" kind of person once I decided God wasn't real.Something that causes a decent amount of conflict between me and my Mom.


I think your upbringing had a lot to do with your opinion on religion. I never felt blinded to any aspect of the world. I was free to discover what I wanted and free to form whatever opinions I wanted. Now what is interesting is that I spent all my early schooling years at a religious schools but never found them to be demanding, I guess. Oh the schools would definitely push religion a lot, but I never felt obligated. I feel like I had a choice but I chose to believe in a faith, even if there was no concrete evidence.

I think it is the right thing to do, but I also think that everybody is allowed to believe or not believe in whatever they want. As long as they find satisfaction and have good intentions in the way they go about it. I just still hope they are a good person so if my religion is true, they can have a good afterlife, too.
