[QUOTE="ArilliusBM:1001029"]Humans have the freedom to choose exactly what they want to believe in, you're 100% right on that. But humanity does not need an organized religion to have morals and values. From an historical standpoint, it is quite noticeable that Judeo-Christianity has molded modern society into what we are today. It is quite interesting reading the history behind religions, myths, and ancient belief systems, as they define cultural values of a society. Had the Roman Empire never adopted Christianity as their main belief system, it would have completely died out along with the other numerous other Middle-Eastern religions. Had the Roman Empire never adopted Christianity, some other religion or belief system would define our society today. I could rant on and on about my disposition towards any organized religion (I hold more respect for Eastern philosophies and religions, as well as pre-Christian pagan beliefs in Europe), but to me it is quite obvious the religion is the monkey on the back of society, so to say. It is a hindrance to the progress of the human species. It divides us, makes us fight each other, and will ultimately lead to our demise. We need to wake up as a species, stop squabbling over petty differences in beliefs, and work as one towards the betterment of humanity. But alas, this is not the case. We need to question what we want to do, not what we've done. There shouldn't be a fear of what happens when we die, or a fear of anything for that matter, other than ourselves. Embrace destruction, for it is our destiny. With it, new life will emerge and the process will repeat itself. [/QUOTE]
