Following the hijack of Shelly's post on science research I thought I would post my thoughts on "religion" as I see it and then wait to see what happens.

I was raised Roman Catholic and have found I don't fit in with the pedophiles and those who protect them. It made me sick to my stomach.

I do believe in a higher power but can't ignore the science behind the making of "us". To me when "let there be light" was supposedly said, I believe that was the moment of the big bang and the universe was here. I say here because that's the science. It happened that fast.

Adam and Eve were nothing but great apes in the garden of eden.

Like it or not we "evolved" we weren't created, you can't ignore that science either. After 20 years in surgery I've seen and studied a lot on the human body and we arent far from the apes. There are too many similarities on the inside.

All the written words have gone through too many hands to be believed anymore. Just like a story that's started around the office, by the time it gets to someone on the other end there has been too much bullshit added or taken away from the truth of the original.

To me it's amazing that people support organized religion given that different beliefs have been the root of wars and land disputes for centuries among supposedly civilized people. They hold on to the beliefs and completely ignore the science that's being proven these days.

George Carlin said it best :-)
