Cronus

Although I play a lot of games, I think Sid Meier's Civilization V is a game all of us would appreciate. Anyone have that?

I don't believe that "he's in a better place" strictly implies heaven, I think it can be used as a euphemistic phrase.

Don't sweat it, great read! You're right. I find it illogical that Abrahamic religions came to existence so late in history, and the fact that they all led to the formation of new empires is pretty suspicious. Also if god is omni-everything, then why did he have to re-evaluate the 2 previous 'true god's' religions? I think that religion was created by some kind of elite society at that time. I mean, why did the prophet Muhammad become the general and leader? I thought he was a prophet, not an emperor or general. So yeah, I came to the conclusion that religion has been used as the ultimate political tool. It made a man from a merchant to one of the most admired figures of history.

Hello FDR community, first poster here and big fan of Stefan Molyneux's podcast. I come from a Muslim family, and all my life I claimed to be a Muslim, even though in retrospect, this was not true. I did not follow the five pillars of Islam, nor have I ever read the qu'ran or ever prayed. A few weeks ago, before Ramadan came a long, I realized that I never really believed or had interest in Islam or any other religion for that matter. This is the second time I renounce my faith. The first time, I was 15 (now 18), but felt so guilty that I started believing again. Though, I have noticed from both cases that a series of bad events have occurred after I decided I was an atheist or agnostic. I have one side of my body telling me it's just me feeling guilty, and one side telling me it's god giving me a sign. Has this happened to anybody else?
