I'm not directly grilling anyone here ...

But a trend I've noticed in modern religions (of all types) is that a lot of people say things that they don't believe deep down in their heart and soul because of either ( a ) fear of retribution or embarassment --or-- ( b ) because they think talking tough or down to a 'god' makes them feel stronger.

Again, I'm not knocking anyone here, but as always -- you should really think about the nature of these types of discussions and say to yourself "sure I may fool myself or other people - but 'someone else' may be watching how I represent myself.

To support what I just said, I've found myself saying things I know to be wrong (regarding religion) because I wanted to downplay the effect of my non-believer friends. If you have a religious belief, regardless of what it is, you shouldn't be fearful of what any mortal thinks about you.
