OK people, not
all religions are war mongering. Christianity is a hateful religion, I used to be Christian, and my life was so fucked up I was to the point of killing myself. I tried to "ask God" why and how he could let this happen. After no answers it only made me more miserable. Then I relaized there is no God.
I'm a Athiest but I have a Philosophy I thought up. In the beggining there was a supreme being of some sort. How he got there nobody can understand because this god never has spoken to us and never will. This god formed everything that we see, the planets, stars, sun, ect out of himself. He used his own power to create a origin for life. After that everything he created started to evolve(yes I belive in evolution, fuck off
). Higher lifeforms were made over billions of years and eventually it stopped with us, the humans. Humans are the highest lifeforms who take in the qualities that the one creator had. But this means, we have to rely on ourselves. There isn't a god for you to prey to when you need help. You have to find it in yourself.
As for a death/afterlife kinda thing, I dunno. The only thing I know about death is, it hurts
...anyways thats just my two gp.
