Sheeple didn't appear out of thin air.

As with most history, its written by the victors, that includes religion also. Affording corrupt minds and hands to write to the narrative they look to form. How else does Separation of Church and State seem to be non existent..
One suggestion John Lennon's Imagine. That should be THE ONLY RELIGOUS text that stays, as corruption, greed, manipulation, behind closed door, fear mongering, has served those organizations well, and will continue to do so, until people understand that 1st rule, as with at least understanding that fear is unneeded in a place where No boarders, no religion, no possession as we are all from this rock in space.

Hell is not a destination after death, as its where we reside currently. Which is made by the fear wrought by uninformed and ignorant. Which in this day and age should come easy. However, it is also our responsibility to help to inform our communities.

Lastly its our duty to remind those institutes they are there to serve the people, not control the people. Religion forgetting to keep its self out of matters of governance, and visa versa.

While Im on it. Special interest group reps *Lobbyist* banned from interacting with either. Elected officials being removed from office if they are. Religious as there should be no special interests of theirs as they are here to aid the community of the congregation they hold.

Maybe I should start a campaign... Who knows.

Believers of the bible are religious, religiousness happens when someone reads the bible and feels like God is going to strike them with lightning if they mess up, most people's form of lighting is burning in hell, they think everything will lead them to hell, religiousness is blinding and can stop people from seeing the real meaning of Christianity the bible is a guide and normally not listening to the bible will eventually cause destruction on yourself, not because God did it to you on purpose because you didn't listen but because the guide he put infront of you that you decided not to listen too was to guide you away from that destruction, sin is destructive, sin will destroy, it's the whole reason why Satan tricked Adam and eve to create it, sin is pleasurable to the flesh but harmful to the soul, the bible's guidance says not to listen to the flesh, it teaches you how to weaken the flesh and weakening the flesh makes avoiding sin a lot easier, the more you feed the flesh, the harder it becomes to avoid sin and the more you fall into it, religiousness turns the word of God into a rule book, not a guidance, long story short your own choices lead to consequences if done incorrectly and the bible was meant for you to avoid those consequences, religiousness is feeds more into rules and power, Christianity is about spreading the word of God so others can experience the love of God and your connection with God.

The bible is a divinely revealed scripture from God like the Torah before it and other books before them. It has been changed by the hands of men and corrupted. Interestingly, the Quran is still preserved due to tajweed negating the telephone effect and it being an oral recitation

[lightbulb27]

by definition yes.

it's all about belief... the root problem being belief, and the root cure belief...

consider what you believe... and how it influences your behavior...

a thing can not be religious, cause being religious is a conscious activity. however the bible is the result of such activity, so it can be regarded as an item closely linked to religious practices.

The Bible is largely a book of myths. Believers are religious. Belief without evidence is the definition of religion.

[bededazzle]

what do you mean? i don’t understand the distinction

[strateguy632]

yes the bible related to religion so religious. and yes people can be religious

[Dargil]

No. It is a printed document.
Yes. They believe that document is true.

[BarryLiverstone]

Both. The Bible is a collection of religious books. and Christians practice their religion reading it and through prayer and worship of God

[AngryCarl2]

The Bible has no religious beliefs. It's just ink on paper.

[riverrat3]

The bible is not religious. People can be religious

[strateguy632]

in one definition, because bible is object, but same word religious has a few usages.
