I have been hestitating for awhile to put my own opinion about religion in this thread. Religion has been the cause of most of my family's problems. My mother is a Christian Wiccan (WHich i think i have posted once already), my sister and father are full-throttle christians, my brother is morman, and I dont believe in relgion. Dont get me wrong, i believe in a higher power, never doubted that there was one. Religion was not something i want to dedicate my life to. Im not willing to have people to tell me whether or not im going to hell because i made a mistake. Nor do i want to be a part of something that tottally shuts out anything that does not believe in what they believe in.
My family was torn apart by relgion. My sister and mother haven;t talked in about five years all because my sister doesnt understand wut my mom believes in, instead she chose fear and didn;t bother looking into it. (Knowledge really is power) And my father disaproves of my brothers choice of belief. I realize that a lot of people out there only have their religion, it is the only thing getting them through this thing called life........

.......I just wish people wouldn't try to force their beliefs upon other people and they would get rid of the thinking that their way is the only way to go.
