Live Chat:Pros & Cons of Religion is it a danger to society, who does it benefit

adapted from  MrsCammelspit

If God is infallible, why didn't he make the people who wrote the scripture more clear about the definitive rules and guidelines? Why cause such chaos, a line in the sand even when people believe in the same root faith?

Every religion  interpreted the bible with their own preconcieved morality" how can anyone want to be a part of something that just seems so... confusing?

Believers consider as pros 

- Calming the fear of death and the positivity of a new beginning after death.

- Giving hope when you are in a place where you feel hopeless.

- Strength to continue through harsh events through prayer and fellowship.

- Knowing your place in life/ Being assured that you are being led positively, even through hard times.

Closer look .... Human Rights Violations.  child abuse sexually, physically, and mentally is rampant in all religion to some extent as they form the minds to accept and believe in them. Prostitution in the Hindu culture, arranged marriages to young girls. Bodily integrity violations of baby boys and African girls entering womanhood. Not helping rape victims, even calling THEM the criminal. Deaths for being homosexual, for being a different religion, for not covering up enough or for criticizing a religion. My touch on Voo-Doo is the horrendous things they do to the Albino africans. They are essentially cut apart and cold on the black market. Mostly children.
