I agree that the promise of eternal life is a powerful opiate.
I am saddened that mankind just can't
summon the courage to kick the addiction.

The wife's not going to like that. But, as I recall, that "package" is reserved for those that martyr themself and killing non-believers in the process, all in the name of peace.

Salt on, my friend!
Oh, I see!
So that's what started that high-cost "Premium Membership" program concept!
I always wondered who originally came up with that idea.
It sure does work well...and nobody will ever complain to Customer Service that they got ripped off.

They seem to positively delight in brutal bloodshed. Humanity is at stake, IMHO.
Why do some think that religion is so complicated?..................................
But again, my main question here is what is it that's so complicated about christianity or Buddhism that it needs to be researched and studied? And for all those who don't research and study it, does that mean they're not good christians or Buddhists?
'Complicated' can be traced back to mankind's religious base at ancient Babylon.
As the people migrated away from ancient Babylon they took with them their false religious-myth ideas and practices and spread them world wide into a greater religious Babylon or Babylon the Great.
This is why we see so many overlapping or similar religious ideas spread throughout the world today.
So, a study or research of Scripture is necessary to separate the religious truth from the false.
False clergy often use a 'mixture of Scripture with church tradition or customs' just taught as being Scripture but isn't.
When that happens that makes a person's belief to be in vain according to Jesus at Matthew 15:9.

So I guess Jesus was off track when he taught the simple people who had no way to research his teachings. Poor, misguided Jesus.
