>I was raised Christian, by age 6 I was baptized, and by age 11 I was a full blown athiest. The dominoes had been slowly setting up all my childhood, small leaps of faith even my small mind refused to rationally make, but there was a single tipping point that I think made me walk home one day and look at the sky differently and really equate God with Santa.
>I was in church and I asked one of our senior church pastors why in Matthew, Judas feels so guilty and full of remorse that he throws the 30 pieces of silver on the floor of the temple, and then goes and hangs himself from a tree in shame.
>But in Luke, Judas doesn't feel bad at all, buys land with the silver, and god is so upset with him for not feeling guilt that he strikes him down and his guts fall out of his stomach.
>Our pastor said the dying words of religion to me, "Well, humans wrote the bible, and they couldn't have gotten everything perfect. But it is the word of God."
>Got it. So people are just making shit up and stamping it with "God said it."
>Eastern Religions are superior in every conceivable way. Spirituality is only beneficial when viewed from originating inside the self and flowing outward. An external god is just a collection of humanities sum insecurites.
