The magician was asked to leave his Christian youth group by a pastor who told his parents: "He's no longer learning about the Bible from me. He is now converting everyone in the class to atheism."

Ok, might not be the right forum but here we go, the title may not fit the thread too btw.
It's one of the weird bends in my brain.
I think, that something exist, that wants all human beins to feel the same, have the same mindset, and do, the same at the same time.
Do you understand?

I don't know how to get this message to you, if only I could get this strange vibe over into your brain, accompanied with the vision, you'd understand. The morbid feeling that comes with it is so insane.
I get completely disgusted by it.
Why this title for the thread, cause I think a lot of you guys have this stereotype vision of religious people, while in fact, those who are truly religious, you probably would not call them 'religious', yet they are the ones who truly are. They have tact to convert, they can say what you need to, you can be awestruck by one just by his charisma.
Oh well, examples you could call them. See, religious people, well, yeah, whatever..

The word "Religion" stems from the Latin word "Religare", which means "to bind", "to tie down", and "to hold back".
Mine would be like, everbody wants to give a lightbulb to someone else, all at the same time So everybody starts searching for someone to give a lightbulb to. But there's an extra, ridiculous but rather frightening touch to it.

Where in the world did you hear that religion means "to hold back"?
As usual, I find that people who want to give religion a bad name, don't even know what the true definition of it is.
Religion may bind people together in thoughts and beliefs, but it does not imply that it holds anyone back.

Instead of attacking me based on an uneducated and lack of knowledge regarding etymology,.... please answer my question:
What is God's Will and Desire for us, and who is the authority to say?

Can you go into more detail? What do you find frightening about it?
