What are your thoughts on religion and god

I was raised Mennonite (small global Christian Community; god is love) and liked being in the local community. Though even as a child I never believed into god, paradise, hell etc, etc. Once I moved away from home and religion, faith et al lost their meaning over time. After listening to the verbal diarrhea being spewed from all religions regarding gay people for decades, the US-Mennonite community not doing same sex weddings/not recognizing my marriage, all religion became the enemy. Good riddance.

Hi Bernd. I'm agnostic and somewhat semi atheist? But yes, I do get your opinion as it is same as mine. I remember when I was in my religious school reading religious text book about Islam and I thought, "...this doesn't make sense." Why in the world Islam promote so much violence as punishment (to begin with). I mean okay, stealing is bad but chopping off hand? Then the magical stuff done by the prophets (...I was like, what?). Don't ever get me started with the amount of wars organized during prophet Muhammad. 

And if I remember correctly, there's a verse in Quran that talks about The Battle of Badr (War): "...For god has helped you during Battle of Badr at the time you were helpless..."

Right, so God has no issue to promote violence himself.

Thanks for sharing your opinion, Bernd. Appreciate it.
