    Is everyone forgetting when religion started? Think back. Waaaay back.
Ok, tell me when you reach _right_ before prehistoric times. Ok look
around. See that grass hut over there, or that cave? that's where religion
started. Religion, myth, and all that are just ways to explain the
inexplainable. Now that science has more credible answers to our questions
there is no need for religion. There are other ways of trying to figure out
who and what you are. Not that anyone is ever going to find the answer,
however. Don't you think if there was a real answer we'd all know it by
now, instead of going through thousands of years of religious war and
persecution in a universal penis-measuring contest? The people who wrote the
Bible are the same people who thought the world was flat, and the Earth was
the center of the universe. That's two strikes.
    Anyhow, I'm wasting my time. There may be a great big unifying force in
the universe. In fact, it's likely. But who will ever know? What the hell
is the point in wasting our breath when we're all going to disagree until we
pass out? Ok fine, we're not really arguing or anything, but this
conversation has been had millions of times by millions of people. It's
old, it's dead, and we'll never know until we die, assuming something comes
after.
