Topic	If God doesn't exist, well, that's pretty fucking depressing.

If ones life is said to be pointless without devotion to gods, that sounds pretty shackling to me. Wouldn't you agree that the idea of a deity that requires ANYTHING out of their creations is absurd? Then why would you even consider such a thing? Maybe you're not making any statement about a deity but rather about their believers. That's more than fine, but it's not the topic, right. Before we can speak about devotion we need to have a pretty good idea of what god it is that we're devoted to. And therefore what exactly that devotion means, what it entails. Right? Then maybe we'll find that looking at it as some sort of bondage is just a prejudice. <cite>closetjpopfan posted [p:926461190] in If God doe...
