Religion for Retards

[Nonexistent_One]

1. You can have faith without religion. There are people who don't believe in 'organized religion,' and they choose to have faith without them. I don't think that you can have religion without faith though; not in a true sense anyways. I still go to church and have been baptized into the Catholic faith--does that mean that I have a religion without faith? Some may say yes, some may say no. It's all in the way you look at it.

2. Yes, this is true. That is one main reason why the ancient Gods of past cultures seem so ridiculous--becase we have a better understanding of how things work, and we don't need dieties to explain those things anymore. We do still cling to dieties for the things still unanswered by science, but someday many things we believe to be divine may very well be explained. It's an ongoing reduction of the importance of a belief in a 'God.'
