I don't like to talk to much about religion because many people, I don't know why, feel bad and even offended. But I guess we have to point it out. In my house, there are still people trying to get me going to church, but I always say no. And in some point, I feel they don't respect my choice as I respect their beliefs.
I understand, it's a touchy topic for some, especially for those who feel it's their right to push it (their beliefs) on others. I shut that down pretty quickly. Using it to justify terrible acts of terrorism, control of the masses and revenue raising is shameful. It's also used, on an individual level, to justify things...words like, it was God's will or if God wills it, annoy me as it convenienttly removes ownership and responsibility from the individual.
Oh, I hate that phrase: "It's God's will." Terrible things had happened due to that phrase. How many people had die because of that? But yeah, I try to cut that topic as fast as it comes.
Looking forward for another Friday. Have a good weekend.

Anyway, thanks for your post.
