Religion

When religion was born, It was a small defenceless animal, But soon found mankind’s problems to nurture it. As time went on religion grew stronger and larger It mated with belief and behold ! Creed and discrimination were born. This was a family destined to rule the simple folk known as man. Generations went by and between the great family of religion and belief, they tore at the very heart of what was right and what was wrong. Faith was banished long ago and told never to return But still the family didn’t agree . And so it was decided they didn’t need each other anymore, Many wars were fought But not by them , The simple folk known as man shall do the bidding and the dying for religion and belief !.

I am not a fan of religion, I believe in a more intimate and accepting God. There are many things done in the name of God that have no relationship with God.

Simon, though I know many wonderful religious people, I also see the bad that happens when people take it too far and turn it into discrimination of those who are "different" from themselves. There are many hypocrites in many religions. I like this one.
