You point out an interesting thing Tony, one of my best friends and one of the smartest guys I’ve been lucky enough to know once said to be he'd probably be religious later in life as a kind of anchor, exactly what you said. I think it’s the same with allot of kids my age who turn devout religious in there teens it’s because it’s something to cling to. Frankly i think people can believe anything they want, as long as they don't force it, or their rules on other people....that’s what *REALLY* shits me off, tings like gay kids at school getting bagged continually by hardcore Christians, and because i stand up for them I’m *obviously* gay coz no one but gays would support gays.....*sighs*, never mind my gf of 6 months....I had a good friend who was Christian until he joined in something like this, then preceded to abuse me coz i was not Christian, so i abused the shit out of him and his religion, and to be honest, that’s not hard, examples all though history and the bible make it far too easy (I advise you all read Mark Twain's Letters from earth, its incredibly good)....Another example is the catholic church throwing its weight around in France to stopping the distribution of the morning after pill in French high schools....that one really got me, particular since i have a 17y.o friend who is pregnant after being date-raped at a party and her parents refuse to let her have an abortion on religious grounds........
<rant> HUMANITY BEFORE RELIGION PLEASE... </rant>
