The reason that masses of people participate in faith is due to one reason: people are weak! They want to believe that once they die, they arent really dead.(Either by going to "heaven" or reincarnation) Or that someone is watching over their every move, because they are scared of the consequences of a bad action. People in general have trouble living their own lives so they depend on religion to "guide them." Also i dont call what i think "ignorance" because faith is something that nobody on this earth can give you a 100% undeniable proof that there is something or someone to have faith in, therefore by not beleiving in something that no one really knows is true in the first place cant be ignorance, its merely a choice; an opinion. PLus i dont look down upon people who believe in god, so i dont really understand why people look down upon non believers? Isnt this what america stands for, freedom of speech, religion, ect? But no matter how foolish you claim me to be, im happy that i wasnt raised in a very religious household, because i want to live my life the way that i want, not the "way its supposed to be lived" in others eyes.
