Religion Reviews

Well I think religion is as real as you believe it to be. Basically the whole of religion is psychological. I believe its psychological because people want to feel as if there is someone looking out for them and there not alone in the world,and they have hope that when they die that wont be the end as such. If you think about it most ...

I'm musing I'm afraid, so god knows (excuse the pun!) where this will go. My family are predominantly catholic, although all apart from one of my grandmas have rejected the faith and I was not even baptised into the C of E which was pretty much standard practise when I was born (1976). My Catholic grandma, I have recently ...

I believe that everyone has the right to their own views and to act on them how they see fit unless they effect others. And I suppose this is where my problem arises. Because it seems that some types of Christianity do not accept this. I had a religious education the other day: I was chatting to my housemate about religion. My housemate ...

The first thing that springs into my mind when it comes to writing an opinion about religion is the great concept used in the TV series and books of Red Dwarf, of silicon heaven. The idea is that the manufacturers of all computers and androids etc, as artificial intelligence increased, programmed into the machines the concept of silicon heaven ...

This is a phrase that has been used for years, who does it apply to? I've heard it said about jehovah witnesses tapping on the door, or people who attend church and admit to it. So is it ok to go to church or support a religion or not? It has almost become an embarrassemnt to say you believe in 'god' (or by another name if you ...

What most of you are against, judging by your opinions, are the spokespeople of religion rather than religion itself. I too, would be totally against God if all I had to go on was what some so-called agents of God say and do. I think that if you look deeper into the philosophies of all religions God is explained in great and logical detail. We ...

Perhaps some people may view me as naive and simple, but the following opinion is my personal thoughts and beliefs regarding religion. I was brought up as a Christian in the Church of Scotland. I attended Sunday school, bible class, I sang in the choir and I loved every minute of it! Both my parents were very active in the church and ...

I am in high school at the moment. In my Religous Education lessons I am supposed to be taught about all of the religions of the world. In year seven the whole year was based on Chrisianity and we only spent about three weeks learning about the jewish religion. In year 8 we were supposed to learn more about the jewish religion and do a bit about ...

This may seem a little deep, but for me this issue means a heck of alot. I hope you all enjoy reading an account of religion in a typical life. When I was a little boy I remember looking at a shiny silver box , with big letters scribed in it, it was a gift from my auntie for my christening. Just 10 minutes ago I thought about this box and ...

I'm not trying to dissuade those who do have a strong faith from their beliefs, I’m just writing on behalf of those who-like me- believe that religion is not worth all the time and effort that the bible tells us is necessary. I concede that the Bible does encourage us to do some very good things, such as giving to the poor. Part ...

I recently filled out my census form and under the category "Your Religion" I wrote Jedi. I personally do not believe in God. So instead of ticking "none" I simply wrote Jedi. I believe that a Divine Being who loves us (I say "us" with a total distaste in my mouth) would surely help the world's needy people to ...

For starters, I believe there is no easy answer to the question I posed in the title of my opinion. Of course there are - and will always be - people who have deep faith in their religion, but the statistics clearly show that in particular the Christian churches are struggling to get people into church; especially children and teenagers seem ...

Religion is a tricky subject for me to approach. I consider myself to be a logical soul, and I try to look at all angles before judging something. I also, as usual, think that 90% of people who have an opinion on this subject are fairly misinformed. At any rate, I think the easiest way to qualify my belief would be to say that I am a Deist. ...

Did I lose my religion, or was it taken? I have never really felt like a spiritual person, instead preferring to fall back on the logical thought and scientific proof that we were fed as children. I find it easier to believe that when we die we rot, and that when terrible things happen it is because that potential was always ...

Has anybody ever actually seen god? Is there any hard evidence to prove his existence or that or Jesus or any other stupid myth from the bible? According to my R.E teacher Noah was around 500 years old when he build the arc. I`m sure thats true aswel :) !! My Friend has a theory and I think he is probably right. His theory is that the Bible ...

First let me say that I am a Christian and I believe that everyone would be better off if they were too. Having said that I will be more general. I think that if a persons religion promotes good values such as do not steal, kill, cheat, lie, commit adultery and things of that nature. They benefit society. Is religion just something that makes ...

I do not have a religion ....... well not one that would be classed as onre i believe in my slef and that it the only reason people have a relegion is too feal secure. For instance fate.....i just cannot buy in to the whole thing Maybe its because i dont like the fact that my life is on a courase and theres no ...

Personally I don't care about religion. It makes no difference to me if there is or isn't a God. I will never know because he does not exsist physically. To me he is like a fictional character like Santa Clause or the tooth fairy. I believe there is nothing wrong with people who believe in God and have a religion. They have made a decision ...

Time - August bank holiday weekend, 1997 Place - Huddled round a huge fire in the middle of a field in Bridlington State - Drunk... very very drunk. It's a miracle I remember that night. Myself and boyfriend at the time were away for a weekend. I'd collected a few bits of my jewellery, pouches, whatever, together to try ...

Personally, I do not agree with Darwins theory. However, I do not agree that we all just 'happened by' with a wand. I do believe in God though. I do not believe God to be a 'regular person'. I do believe God is a whole force. I believe in afterlife. However you act in your 'earth' life is how you ...
