I think that alot of religion is held by people because it makes things sound easier..
how many atheists? on this board have ever posted about someone dying and said something like
Rest In Peace youv gone to a better place now with angels and blah blah blah.
religion makes the idea of a family members death easier because you hold onto this belief that they dont just get put into a box and into a fire or into the ground to rot away.
I honestly believe thats why alot of people have a small part of religious belief in them.
Im a Catholic by the way!
