More on atheism..

Ever wondered what it would be like living without religion? (obviously for ppl who subscribe to one) being brought up my whole life in the thick of religion, i havent rly considered it till very recently. for those unfamiliar, atheism is either, rejection of existence of gods, or not believing in gods. its a very fine line between the two, and i cant say i fully understand the line. but anyway. what exactly is religion? maybe ppl are right. maybe, it's mankind's way of coming up with a solution for things they cant explain. maybe mankind feels the need to believe in a supreme, divine, omniscient, omnipresent deity. i dunno. i like to think of religion as something man invented to attempt to create a bridge into the so-called divine, if there's one. and to keep ppl in law. i mean, ppl wld definitely be afraid of being 'damned to the eternal fires of hell' and would desire to go to 'the heavenly gardens of eden, to dwell among god himself'. yeah sure. why must we make it so difficult for ourselves? why the need to conjure up intricate religions, to project utterly false facades? why does mankind cling onto something which he cant even prove exists? and he clings on so tightly, willing to let the galaxy burn before his eyes, let the earth die, all for his 'religion'. whatever it is, all i noe is that; if there was a high and mighty god somewhere up there, he wldnt be leaving mankind to stew in this insufferable mess that the world is slowly progressing (or shd i say, regressing) into. why shd we be forced to go through hell on earth? sure, compared to 'eternal hell', wow this world is so damn fine and dandy isnt it? tsunamis, earthquakes, disasters, all striking this world. running out of fuels, everything getting more and more expensive. i dunno how u look at it, but to me, it seems like the world is ending. thank god for tt. im sry to say tt, but yeah tts how i feel.
