Just needed somewhere to put this…
Issues behind the Phenomenon of Religion…
What is Religion? If in a thousand years, future generations are looking back to ours in order to study our religious practices, what should they consider is our religion? Does it just include those rites and practices that are commonly percieved to be religious? Or should it be expanded to include the fanatical (sometimes called “religious”) devotion of some people to professional sports teams, celebrities, or to other tanglible or non-tangible things such as fame and fortune. On that note what is a “god” anyway?
On that note, what is the “Christian” religion? Most make Christian Religion synonomous to going to church. After all, if you suspect that someone you are talking to is a Christian, what do you say or ask to confirm this? “Do you go to church?” or “What church do you go to?”
Bleh.. I’ll continue thought later…
