I can not participate in this poll because of the limited choices.
I am not a religious man, in terms of church-going, but I believe in a divine creator who works in mysterious ways. I also think it's generally good for people everywhere to go to church and hear a message of peace, heaven, social behavior and basically learn about the bigger scheme of things.
I however take religious books and the often shameful orthodox stuff that comes with it with a bag of salt. It often works out wrong. Religion (as in sects) bonds small communities, sure, but separates people in the bigger picture. The world has become a global village. We must acknowledge religions are a cultural phenomenon and being born a Christian, a muslim or whatever, is primarily a matter of geographical coincidence.
To wrap it up:
- * 1 creator of heaven (in whatever shape or form nobody knows), earth & mankind.
* Religious differences, hate and fanatism equals (=) human bogus.
It's basically simple. We really don't need the (entire) books for that.
