Where does the hatred of the "idea of God" come from? It is nothing new, and so many are so adamant in their stance that I wonder, why? If having such a personal belief makes someone ignorant or stupid... why does that offend so many? Why get so defensive if there really is no God? Why be so hateful, and hurtful to what others believe if it effects you in no way, shape, or form? Hmmm....
So, some believe "In the beginning God..."
Others believe... In the beginning, nothing! Then nothing became something and here we are billions or years later... (somehow this one ended up in the schools)
Through the reality of Gods inevitability, man has really messed things up. Religion is merely mans attempt to reach God (even to the point of manipulating God to be who He is not.) The simplicity of God's intentions seem to be completely lost in the pride and hatred of mankind. Even the outreach of God through Christ has been manipulated to mere politics, and hypocrisy. Christianity is not supposed to be a religion, but a relationship with Christ... man and religion has made it seem otherwise.
Though God has not changed from mans attempt to manipulate who He really is, devastating perceptions blind those in need of Him. A Perfect God has been made unappealing by religion. I guess that would make me want to not believe in God too... if I did not already know the Truth.
