I do believe in a greater power that runs the show, and have done for a couple of years now as it dawned on me after walking away from a 95 mph car accident on the autobahn without even a scratch or a bruise on me. It also helped me get through my last tour of Afghanistan thinking that someone up there has an eye out for us.

interestingly I worked with americans in afghanistan who swore blind that all the afghan people need is to embrace jesus and they will find peace, which is a real load of tosh. these evangelical religious types are a great danger to themselves and the people they attempt to \"Save\".

The world would be a much better place if people were allowed to believe what they want to believe with no interference from preachers and evangelicals, most of whom seem to work as a matter of ego so they can say i saved this man from evil. And as a final point Jews, Christians and Muslims all worship the same god just under different names and in slightly different ways.


Good post mate, and it cant do any harm in believing in it. I know it has caused wars (religion) but we know better than that, and if it helps some through bad times then it can only be a good thing.

Religion was meant to be a deterrent, but like everything else, the powers that be turned it  :angry:

I'm quite proud that our country seems to be the one that has the highest levels of scepticism when it comes to God in the entire world. This thread seems to reflect that.

I do find it quite worrying that beyond Europe religion seems to be on the rise and becoming more intolerant.
