I believe all that is good about religion and faith is about our search for God and attempts to lead just and moral lives, while everything bad is due to humanity's imperfections.



John, I’m not sure religion/faith is about our search for God...as a born again Christian, by faith, and not by evidence, I believe in the existence of God, as does every other Christian believe in God by faith...it would be great if God revealed himself to mankind but I don’t see any overwhelming evidence of a search for God

As far as attempts to lead moral lives, I don’t see that anywhere....humans, given the removal of laws will immediately reveal their lack of morals....everything bad is about the immorality existing within each of us that is only kept in check by our laws and the consequences when we break them

If by imperfections. You mean evil, I agree..we know right from wrong but, when there are no laws, we invariably exploit our evil side...in the year 2024, that is a truth on which you can depend[i][/i]
