see, the problem is, people tend to equate God with religion as if the two were dependent when in reality, i think religion is dependent of God and God is independent of anything else-just as some plants are dependent of the sun and the sun is independent of plants. that's why if something goes wrong and when religion fails, we tend to blame god for everything. mind you, everything that is man made will fall. religion is man made- so it will always be doomed to failure but i don't think its fair to attach it up to god and say that god is evil or is it's fault, or that he doesnt exist. i think most of the evils in the world are made by our own doings and could have been prevented/ solvalbe, haven't we only been so selfish.

i strongly agree that god gave us a brain- and with that brain, the ability to choose or free will if you may. people has a history for complainin and demanding for miracles but for God to just make everything good means to mess up with the gift of free will. God and the devil do not work in harmony- they work in discord- a power struggle because the other can only exist without the other.

still don't understand what the deal is with all these extra lines all the time, fool -eggman
