Religion gets peoples attention for the simple fact that we all need a sense of purpose, belonging, and guidance.
No one wants to believe that our lives are meaningless accidents that end in our total annihalation. Religion serves an important role in society, it gives us morals so that we may have a civilized existance, it gives us hope in times of desparation, it gives us purpose when we are lost, it speaks to the deepest needs of the human animal. Religion also causes some of the tensions between people, look at what is going on in the world today. My belief is that people need to stop thinking that their way is the only right way and let others have their beliefs. Rise above the name of your religion and step into the higher realm of a nameless, all encompassing spirituality that realizes the truths of all the worlds religions. Tolerance, compassion, and love for all people not just those like you should be the standard for all human interaction. I personally believe in the big bang, I believe in what science and physics have discovered, but this does not rule out the possiblities of a creating force it just states that it has to work within the laws of nature. According to string theory all things boil down to tiny strands of energy, which in essence means that nothing you see is as it seems, we are all made of energy. Wise men of all ages have told us that everything is an illusion, quantum physics only proves mystics right.
