I believe in God, but...

Its hard to believe in any religions texts. Just seems like they all benefit man because man is the one that translated the bible and quran. Someone trying to believe in the bible would be asking this same question. How am I supposed to believe Moses talked to a burning bush even if it was God. Now days, you would be thought of as crazy or on drugs telling someone that. Religious texts is what divides this world. R-texts is also what this world is dieing over. The bible was very helpfull in teaching this world common sense morals that might not of been learned without it. The bible was written over 2000 yrs ago. I think it should be time to discard all religious bibles and focus on the reality of this worlds problems. We have laws and prisons to hold us accountable. God will also hold us accountable when we die. Live,Love,Laugh,Learn

I believe in myself. I also believe in a power greater than myself. Those two things are all I need to live freely.

If you believe in G-d, then do so!
Worship however you want, because if you do it in a way that feels programmed or bogus, you will have doubts.

And run quickly from anyone or any religion that tells you "you are doing this wrong! You have to do it our way!"

Guess I should of pointed out the purpose of my post which was religious texts is the cause of war. Just wish the world wouldn't put so much belief in their texts as to say their religious texts is the truth. Religious texts turns everybody that believe in it to be closed minded. Being closed minded is what causes war. aka Quran Just ventting some anger at the religious wars that will never end no matter what anyone says, sad but true.
