Religion is still very complex. Their are very intelligent or highly educated people who still believe in a life after death (or some how we exist beyond this). Is it that most believe in faiths such as; Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, etc.. that disgust you, or does the belief in life after death disgust you?


And I could name many more things that would flaw the theory of mysticism, faith, & a higher power fading. Their are too many ideas floating around & about. I'm not taking up for any side.. until tempted to. Right now, I'm playing the devil's advocate.
