But I agree with what you are saying here.

I also liked the speech at the end of the South Park LDS episode.
i agree that was also amusing but so true.

I actually think alot of people miss the messages southpark actually has.

but my feelings on religon is that its been approached completely the wrong way and is still about power instead of basically making you a better person.

i actually had a similar conversation with my girlfriend about this and the amount we agreed on was actually surprising because i'm agnostic and she is catholic/christian(i forget which one rofl)

one thing i really hate is all these religious wars and my work mate is Indian and was raised in a Hindu family but the kicker is he went to a catholic school and was best friends with a Muslim, he is also married to a white christian lady(who is lovely) and the story amuses me because it essentially screws up alot of the religious rules people seem to think they think they must obey.

I know ive kinda expanded the topic to basic religion but no one knows which religion is right if any of them are which is why i think alot of religious battles and whatnot makes it alot less appealing for people who like to analyze stuff like myself.
