I'd say CIV sums up religion pretty well. Vote El Presidente, or else.

"I bealive it started when Jesus Chrsit started his teachings." If that's true, then what are Hinduism, Judaism, the Greek pantheon, the Roman pantheon, the Egyptian pantheon, and every other religion that started before Christianity?

"If he don't wants to worship, lets not torture, but respect, since no human should be harmed." With all due respect, that is contrary to the Bible, the book that said you should take sinners outside the city walls and stone them to death.

"I mean, Jesus said that we should love everyone as we love ourselves." Jesus also said that sinners would burn in hell for eternity. There are some good tenets of Jesus' philosophy, but they need to be taken in context of the character of God as established in the Bible (cruel, sadistic, tyrannical) and of the main overarching message of "worship me or suffer"

"Good to know, i imagine if it was the only thing" But if half the bible contradicts the other half, why would you ever follow it? What kind of perfect God can't set his own rules and morals straight? Get it? Straight? Because your God doesn't like anything not straight? Leviticus 20:13 "I mean, Jesus said that we should love everyone as we love ourselves." But Jesus isn't the sole part of the Bible, in fact he's only a part of the New Testament, which, as I said, also advocates killing. "And he said that he loves every sinner but don't love the sin." Some of the sins in the Old Testament are REALLY REALLY DUMB fun fact "I don't think that we should take that verse so "literally"." I don't think we should take the entire book so "seriously" OP thinks he's so smart when his stupidity is so stupid it actually borders intelligence

I do not spend my life preparing for an afterlife, e.g., preparing for death, trying to get right with a god or trying to lead others to that god.

@Debate and @OT I can't tell why God does that, because his justice is a bit different from our justice, and since we aren't on the heaven with him, we can't tell too much. Is like your mom saying "Don't touch that plug", you don't know the reason but you decide to don't touch it, because it will get bad things for you. But anyway, if you guys see him as a genocidal fairy tale character that is a seeker attetion for love.
