I was raised in a family where religion was nonexistent. I'm not religious at all, I do not believe in god. But thats not to say that god doesn't exist. I'm very open to everyone's religious views, and judging a person based on their beliefs, in my opinion, is not right. For people that live their lives for the lord, in their mind, their actions are justified(What I mean by this is, what some people think is rational, others may think its irrational.). A problem is formed when a person of different religious beliefs considers someone else's religious acts "crazy" or "insane." I hope that makes sense. I personally believe that I am in control of my own life. I choose to think that I control my own fate, with day to day decisions(both conscious and subconscious). However, if someone believes that their path has already been chosen for them, I can understand that. That is their own choice, and I respect that. I'm also not saying that religion is necessarily a choice, or that its like a light switch where its either 'on' or 'off,' but rather it be a free decision with endless views and choices. Anyways, I think I've gotten a bit off topic, and perhaps I delved a little too deep on the subject, but hopefully this paragraph makes sense and doesn't offend anyone, because I know religion can be a touchy subject for some.
And lastly, a smiley face to lighten up the mood a bit: Edit: To mess with sentence structure and to clarify a few things as I don't want to come across as disrespectful. |
