    Seriously? Religion it’s a mechanism to control the masses. Don’t be one of them, I know, it’s so cozy and easy to project all on that, but sadly you have to think for yourself and take responsibility for your life, alone, no “god” or religion can and will set you free of that and it’s not a bad thing, just think positive of that fact and it’s not that hard anymore. I don’t say : don’t search for spiritual fulfilment, just stay independent in your thinking, don’t let anybody talk you into guilt, there is no hell, you decide, what you do or you don’t do. And animals - please. Nature takes care of itself, far faaaar longer as any one ever invented a “god” to cope with reality. We all die, that doesn’t make life any less precious. Since billions of years, everywhere in the universe. We are living on this insignificant pebble called earth and for thousands of years religion didn’t contribute to peace, less wars or better distribution of wealth, actually it contributed to the opposite, because it’s so simple to exploit for the powerful. Please, from one human being too the next, think for yourself, do good without the feeling you have to because someone or an old book says so, and very much not out of guilt.

    Edit: everybody can vote something down or make a joke, how about sacrificing 5 minutes of your day for a little talk to maybe, just maybe, change something?
