all you're gonna hear next is "I believe" and "jesus is good" and "faith" and all this other stuff instead of "facts" and "evience" and "proof". You know...'thin air' shit. shit that only exist in your mind, not quantifiable facts in the physical world. He'll then go on to say say that everything said in in the bible is 100% true (though the heads of Christianity already said that jesus wasn't born the time of year bible said he was since they said he was born during "the harvest season" which is not in december - therefore everything can NOT be 100% true since we already found one lie) and of course it's all factual because so-and-so said it. But yet he'll contradict that thinking when he's faced with physical paperwork that goes agianst what he wants to believe. You know..he says "anybody can say anything", yet he wont apply this exact same "anybody can say anything" trend of thought to his own book. That's how his mind makes facts into lies, and lies into facts. Anything that doesn't agree with what he already believes becomes "a lie" and the things that do become "facts".

There's no 'free thought' programmed into "religion".

This isn't a defense mechanism for Q alone man nearly eveyone who's religious does the same thing. I'm living proof, I used to be a bible kid HEAVY. HEAVVYYY!!! In doing research, you often find data from the other civilizations that existed in the same era....that don't coincide with a story in the bible at all. Like "the great flood" that no other civilization in the world has recorded or mentioned. As a matter of fact, in the time where the Bible states everybody in the world was dead - these civilizations we're all alive as their recorded history shows. Now...What seems more likely, that all the other independant civilizations are all lying about their existance to cover up a flood...or that the flood really never happened?

One day you stop being subjective and saying "oh it's MY views so this is an attack on ME" and you say "you know what... why don't I look at this without getting my emotions involved". and that's when you start to wake up.
