My views on Religions

Before i start writing this, i just want to say that i am not starting a religious debate or anything, i am just writing down my thoughts on this topic and... no offence to anyone :) 


There are many religions in the world... 

For example.... 

Christianity 

Hinduism 


Buddhism 






I think that a religion is the belief of a particular god who has superhuman powers. The god can be human-like, an animal, or some other creature. 


I don't think that a religion is a 100% true. It's a belief, not a fact. Some examples of facts that are true will be the history of the Nazi party in Germany before the first world war and how Hitler started world war 2, or the fact that plants photosynthesise. 

But is the history of a certain god true? Or are they just some stories that people made up? There's no way to prove it. The people who believe in that god may believe it, but the ones who are not of that religion don't give a shit about it at all...


However, i'm not saying that having a religion is wrong. Religions can give people hope, make them a better person or guide them in their way of living. 


Though Religions are not facts ( In my opinion ), the powers of the gods do exist. 


Because of a huge amount of people believing in a single god, the powers of the god will somehow become real. 


What i really can't stand are people who force others to believe in the same god as they do. They think that their god is the best and other gods are inferior and wrong. 


Like i've said, a religion is a belief within people. No religion is inferior or superior to the other. Every religion has it's own guidance and rituals. So how can we determine which one is right and which one is wrong? Or which one is the best? 

We can't. 


It's like people's opinions on whether the Playstation or the XBOX 360 is better. Some people prefer the Playstation and some the XBOX. Some are okay with both of them. So, is one preference better than the other? No.

 


So if you want to believe in a particular god, then go ahead, it's okay, no one's stopping you, but don't force others to believe in something if they choose to believe in other gods or not to believe in anything at all.
