I don't believe in any form of religion. I have my own set of values and morals and choose to live by them.

There are many different forms of religion in the world, each with their own 'form' of God. But what amazes me is that many religions are intolerant of other religions.

They simply condemn acknowledging that any other religion could be considered valid. What makes, say, the Christian 'God' any more valid than the Hindu version of 'God'? Nothing at all - it's simply pure ignorance and arrogance to believe that your 'God' is the only 'real God'...

Besides, more people have died in the name of religion than anything else. Wars, Martyrs, Terrorism, Conflict... you name it - Religion has caused it.

However, to those who do have Religious beliefs, that's cool! Keep hold of them if it's what you want to do. I would never impose my views on anyone, and similarly I wouldn't expect anyone to impose their Religious belief on me.
