ancient order

First, I have to warn my religious readers that this post is serious and it tackles on very sensitive topics.� My views often ignite feuds and most believers find them offending.� So if you are a believer, I suggest that you skip this entry.



As as kid, I was raised a Catholic.� I was no altar boy but I went to a Catholic school and was taught about Jesus Christ and all that stuff.� I wouldnapos;t say my family was religious as my momapos;s attempts to make us good Catholics often fail.� We hardly attended mass and on the few occasions that we did, we were often late.� But still, I assimilated most of what was taught in my religion classes and sometimes I was even guilty of praying at night.� I donapos;t know when it all started but I started to stop believing.� Perhaps atheism is a consequence of higher education for those languid-faithfuls like me.

So what are my beliefs?� I believe that religion is the thing of the past.� It was forgivable for us to believe in such silly and fatuous dogmata back when we thought that the world was flat.� But at this age of science that we are now living at, it is less forgivable.� Does this make me a bad person? �I sure donapos;t think so.�

I am ignorant to other religions, so I can only comment on Christianity.� I may not believe the central basis of Christianity, which is: Christ is the son of God, and he was sent down to Earth for manapos;s salvation, but I admire Christapos;s teachings.� I love Christapos;s philosophy actually, which (for me) is:

"Love others as you love yourself."

Ainapos;t it so 70apos;s?� I think Jesus was the first hippie.� Anyway, I think we should just focus on living up to that teaching.� It sickens me to see people who claim to be God-fearing and yet they often neglect their brothers and sisters. �I also hate it that religion further separates the believers from the non-believers, or the believers those with other beliefs. �I have often observed religious people look down on those who donapos;t share the same beliefs as them.� This is something that was taught to us.... We were given the impression that pagans are disgusting people and we should not associate ourselves with them.

Anyway, I donapos;t think we should abolish Religion.� I just think that Religion should modernize and keep up with the times.� One example, the churchapos;s stand against birth control.�

Iapos;m going to stop there because itapos;s scrums time and I donapos;t feel like continuing this entry anymore.
