Reviving religious discussions on ATS

I notice that you say 'religious', rather than 'spiritual' or something of that nature.
Religions are based on (the vanity, the duality, the insanity of) 'beliefs' (not to be confused with Faith).
'Beliefs' are emotionally based, an ego/identity based infection, caught rather than 'rationally chosen', defended to the death!
It is not possible to have a rational, logical discussion with one infected with 'beliefs', on the subject of his 'belief'.
The stronger the belief infection, the less accessible to critical examination.
Pathologically symptomatic behavior ensues.
Unless no one examines 'beliefs', and it turns into a free for all of 'testimonies' (BORING).

Who knows, perhaps your 'questions' might prove interesting (though all the questions on religious stuff has already been asked...).
A shame that you talked about asking questions rather then just getting the ball rolling with your best shot!
It ain't easy to ask a good question. *__-

And if this is some bait to attempt to share some particular belief infection, be warned...
