Mike - the concept of Gods just blows me away
Who would have ever thought of an all knowing being? That we are reincarnated? Plus all the other mind blowing, bizarre concepts that are put forth in the name of religions and gods (yeah a guy was born of a virgin birth and nailed to a cross .... all for his followers, sure, yeah right)
Just the most absurd thing ......
I can understand why ancient Greeks and Romans (and other cultures) had mythology. They had no way to explain why the sun came up every day and so on
We live in an age of science and still cling to superstition
Totally amazes me

I saw some HBO documentary
and they showed faith healers
'curing' the sick
and how the guy gets fed info about the person thru an ear piece
then they brought up how
religion came about cuz man feared death
so what better thing to do than create heaven
so we would not go insane knowing we die and thats IT
