Threads like these are such a waste of time.

The bottom line on the matter is that there is an anthropologically universal truth amongst all human beings to ask questions about our reality which are not answerable by the empirical data around us in. No matter what you call it the basic pull for humans to ask questions---and seek answers---is as much a part of the human experience as having a thumb or a kidney. Why some people are afraid/angry/upset/etc. that some of us actively embrace this part of our humanity in our day to day lives confuses me.

I understand the objection that some ppl have is towards "organized religions" and not towards people of faith in particular, but as I read this thread I see many ppl who just seem out right ANGRY that other ppl live faith-based lives. I'm not sure what the psycho-religious term is to describe that type of anger, but it is analogous to the type of personality that doesn't like to see anyone around him be happy because he harbors some deep bitter resentment.

What is it to you if I talk to my (as you call it) "imaginary friend" every day before eating a meal or doing something important? Sounds like pure bitterness on your part that other people have found a way to live good, bountiful, and satisfying lives while you struggle to get out of your own problems.

Well, obviously he made the thread worth while, putting his 2 cents in.

He's a religious defender. No real arguments, just insults and logical fallacies, and then they usually like to end with announcing how happy they are in their faith, as if their faith is the only way to happiness in life.
