        Never believing in anything is actually believing in something. That position could indicate, among other things, that you believe life is meaningless. That's a philosophic premise some people believe. The moral is this: you can't escape philosophy.

        Good point. People who say that religion is the biggest problem may not realize that they are expressing a belief, just as religious people do. What makes their own belief the solution? What does history show? Check USSR and China. Unbelief is, in and of itself, a religion.

        I don’t think that’s how a relationship with Jesus Christ works. Also people need religion. It’s part of their nature. As they reject traditional religions they turn to new religions. Food religion Environmental religion Political religion Social justice religion

        He's right. Thousands of years old ideology has no place in ruling modern society. Just be a decent human being.

        People like this give me hope. If anyone can get over the very thought process that they were indoctrinated with, then they cannot be fooled...
