id have to disagree with abstarakt on the truth thing... think about it.. the bible only wants you to live by morals.. which is why every religion is asically the same change a phew names,places and ideas... but if u live my morals, then it dont matter what religion u claim, you will be going to the same place (heaven in my opnion).. u can be jewish, and go to heaven.. as long as live by morals, treat people nicely, and live the best life you can live... the bible isnt meant to be taken literaly.. as i dont take it that way.. i see it as gudance and a phew interesting stories along the way.. dont go to church and think you have an idea of a religion.. cause most times ur just getting someone elses interpretation of that religion.. which is why you MUST read the bible or karon or the books of your religion, then interpret what is being said YOURSELF, then carry out as u think it says to.. i kind of got of off subject a little, but just letting you know what i believe.. im originally a baptist, but i dont do things quite as they do.........

Dude, don't come on rap sites shoving that religous crap down our throats.. U totally misinterpreted that meta, what does Christianity or religion have to do with God?..

"Why Do I Need Religion if I believe in God?" - Common

Think about that, that is not what Erica was sayin, and we go out of our way to not offend christians because they get easily offended and are judgmental in a lot of cases. So we don't wanna get persecuted just because we believe something different, and might not take the bible (which is 1 of thousands of books on God) as historically accurate.. i mean, that's how i see it..

I'm not shoving down your throats. You have the choice to read this thread or pass it up. Apparently alot of people are interested in this topic. And what do you think it means. I honestly wanna know, not to seem like a smart ass or to make it look like I think that I'm superior. And u need religion because God requires us to fellowship with others like and unlike us to spread the gopel.

I love Erykah Badu's music and poetry as well, but to continue on this topic, not everyone is going to agree with which religion or spiritual path is the "best", or right for you, as long as you believe in something that generates passion in your heart to do good and be true to yourself, who are we to critisize? i believe the bible, the koran, the buddhists principles, the tao te ching, were all written with the same underlying conditions, to love, do unto others as we would have done to us, and have faith and beliefs in a "god", but that could mean anything.. i believe that these ancient texts were all written in metaphors on purpose so that we could all come up with our vision and thoughts on the subject.....although some "religious" people abuse they're beliefs and start holy wars, to compete for the title of which is "best", there is no best or greatest, just differences, these are my opinions, have a nice day y'all

i will agree, i'm a catholic , but not a going to church believe in all that, if you think about it religion is just the answer to what we cant answer, because we have the questions, but nothing to answer them with, so what do we turn to? the supernatural, god and religion is just the answer to the question of origin, and how we got here, but in all actuallity it dosent add up. we as a human race, homo sapiens, go through a life cycle, there is no after life, (after life is jus so we are not scared to die) we need a point even after death look at the egyptians and all other ancient societies, but we do die, and after that nothing, no hell , no gates, just dirt
