Maniniwala ako sa mga tinatawag nila na mga "holy books"(i.e. Quran,Bible etc.) kung yan ay derektang bunga ng kalikasan,(through the natural process of reproduction), halimbawa yan ay napipitas sa isang puno ng kahoy(bunga) o di kaya sa isang itlog na napisa...ngunit malinaw na ang mga ito ay gawa lamang ng mga mahuhusay na manunulat noong mga nauna pang panahon at imprenta lang...

Pag-aralan ang kasaysayan, pabor at mahusay na kasangkapan ang relihiyon(lalo na ang Kristiyanismo) sa mga mananakop na bansa(colonizers,conquerors)...ngunit pag-aralan din maige ang mga nasakop na mga bansa sa basbas at binyag ng mga nabanggit na relihiyon isang malinaw na halimbawa na lamang ang Pilipinas: pag-aralan kung paano mag-isip ang mga may matataas na pinag-aralan natin na nalulukob sa impluwensiya ng Kristiyanismo na produkto nga ng ating edukasyong maka-kristiyano...masasabing mga 'educated derelicts' kanya naman ang bunga mga mahal kong kabayan ay lipunang lipos ng kurapsiyon, kaimoralan, kawalang dereksiyong politikal atpb atpb.

I don't believe so. There is no evidence at all of a "God". Everything you've said is mere conjecture. What you say sounds more of mythology and legend to me. You're just mouthing whatever you've read or some other person has told you of the "truth". I must ask you to really really think about things that you've been told, or what your ancient books tell you, and with clear rational thinking, think for yourself, you and you alone with all the resources available to you. Then you will find out the simple truth that the whole purpose is to live a life of loving and giving. And that's enough once-in-a-lifetime-opportunity we don't want to waste thinking about the after-life, nirvana, etc.

Hey theists,

Do you think religion and faith in a god or gods is the worst and highest form of slavery?

Is this a way to control mankind and let them submit totally to the whims of the elite which for the past thousand years dictated our way of life, create wars and manipulate the economy?

Isn't the creation of religion a way to divide us people and rule over us? History is replete with such evidences and proofs. Why are you still dumbs and ignorants?

Wake up guys!!!

Emperor Constantine I more or less invented Christianity in about 313 A.D. when he saw the power that it had to control people. He did not really believe in it, but knew it would be a good tool to control, so he brought together all the priests, they formed a committee and wrote the Bible.

Being told that you must love and also fear God, and that there is no escape from this even after death is the worst form of dictatorship and totalitarianism. Even in North Korea where the people must praise little Kim from morning til night they at least get to escape this after death, unlike religion where it is for all eternity.

Walang makakaalam sa ngayon kung totoo nga ba talagang may diyos, hindi natin masasabing may diyos ba o wala, hindi natin masasabi kung anong klaseng nilalang o bagay ito. Lahat ng diyos na sinasamba nating ay parang mga philosophers lamang noong unang panahon. Ang kanilang pakay lamang ay magkaroon ng kapayapaan ang mga tao. Pero mali ang paggamit ng karamihan sa atin ngayon kaya nagkakagulo. Pero naniniwala ako na merong lumikha sa atin, just think how big our universe is, baka nga di pa alam ng lumikha sa atin na nagawa niya tayo eh. Marami pa tayong hindi nalalaman tungkol sa mga pinanggalingan natin, at sa kasamaang palad imposible na talagang malaman pa. Kaya ang dapat natin pagtuunan ng pansin ay yung magiging future natin.

The bible is filled with genocide, rape, cruelty, murder and injustice. Please do not cherry pick it. I will give you a thought, your god which I presume the biblical one tries to give his creations a book which spawned 11000+ (estimate) christian sects to me is such high level incompetence. I can send an email to hundreds of people which likely most will now its meaning, while the god of the bible can't.

Yes because the bible is also a book of history. If the author live within the barbaric age and the people around him are full with brutal barbarous savage act, then the authors way of thought for punishing the sinners is through brutality. If the author think of an easy way of disciplining people in that barbaric age, do you really think they would listen/scare to do bad things?

You say you are not christian and yet you defend the bible. Which has contributed more to morality today judeo/christian superstitions or non-religious groups/persons like?
- Abraham Lincoln (slavery)
- Women Suffrage (Sexual equality)
- Gandhi (Religious Wars)
- Buffet and Gates (Charity)

Are you sure this people has no influence with religion? How about their parents or their parent parents or the one who told them that slavery, religious wars is not good? Because every one of us have an influence with religion that reflects to our personalities and behavior.
