96a2107's theory:
I belive that religion is the way someone finds a way too hold onto life and stay sane, for instance i respect every religion for being so succesful in being a medium for people to find the best in themselfs, this isnt because of a "Higher being" but because most people need to be lead and educated in someway too keep themself sane. I do belive in jesus but i dont belive in god, i belive jesus and his dicpilies were a group off people who came up with a very good way too hold onto life and stay sane that was very very successfull and so has been adopted by people for over 2000 years now.
On this basis my religion is my family and friends because without them i would definitly go mad, this is the reason that more and more people are turning away from conventional religion and turning to other ways of keeping a grip on life, the spread of people turning away from more conventional religions is greater in developed countrys because people simply dont need this form of religion to stay self fullfilled because there are plenty of other ways to do it in leisure and friendship etc. But in lesser developed countrys religion is a massive driving force because people still need the christian etc method of keeeping themselfs self fullfilled.
Whats everyone elses view?
