Religon

Religion is somethiing everyone is suronded by, weather you acsept it in your life or not its everywhere you turn. We as humans need something to look up to and to give us gidensce in our lifes, its just natrul to us. religion is extreamly important due to the fact that most of our nation is run by it. if you do not acsept god in your life your an out cast to the majority of society right off the bat. We have it set in our mind, we have been told, even brain washed that god is a must. I as a teenager do not have god in my life and i get look down to all the time. I have even lost some really close people to me when they found out im an athiest, so now i can cofterbly say im agnostic.

Religion ties everything together. The biggest part in religion in my eyes is the phofit, not the phophet. thats all it is, just like when you go to a grosserie store to buy food, you go to curch to buy a leader. Now im not saying religion is total BS. It does bring happiness and comfert, i know this because i see it all around me. The majority of people are lost and scared and dont know what to do with there life, that sucks to have that feeling. We all have been there and we all have our own types of escape, some turn to art like me, some turn to drugs like my dad, and others turn to religion. Its so important and crutial that we have a higher power in our society that if we dident then we would be no where in life.

Religion is important because we all do not have the inner strenght to over come something. Not everyone can be strong, so the weak ones need soewhere to go  and figure out a way to get past a certin situation in life. Okay look, even for the death of someone close to us what do we do? we turn to religion and let go of them. We believe that there life is still in motion. We pray for them and keep them close to our heart with rosserys. We all need something to turn to in life thats not normaly on our everyday agenda.

Religion is NOT important because we will simply lose our minds. Have you ever heard that saying "to much of anything is bad for you?" well yeah that applys with EVEYTHING!So dont dedicate your life to a higher power *cough cough hard core cristins*  I once met a dude by the name of Sunny, i met him through my girlfiend and he was part of a church group. So i agreeed to go see what was up with the church due to the fact i wanted to see my girl. So we wnt out for a while and got to know eachother, it was Allie,  this dude Jessy, Marcy, and me. we all wnt out to eat and ice skating, and within that time i got to know this man. We disscused his point of view as well as mine on religion, we where both understandable and respected one anothers believes. From the second i met this man and shook his hand he was so happy, he was always smiling, always laughing. Now you may be thinking "ok, i see nothing wrong with this man and religion is not bad" well sorry to bust you bubble but he took to high of a dose of God and weeks later he up and left his wife. He left her and met someone else, he soon started to abuse illigal substances and became very low (in societys eyes) This happened simply because he was doing to much and let go of himself.
My point of telling you this is because religion can destroy not just create.
