I don't understand this.
If there were no religions you wouldn't believe in god, yet you think religion is bullshit but you still believe in it (god)? We were all born atheists..

If i need to give a serious opinion on this, beleif in god and rejection of religions arent a contradiction to me. Although you have to define what kind of god you beleive in.
Someone had to be the first to think there was a god, that came before religions, its a logical inevitability.
Im an agnostic. You cant really know how the universe came into being, not for a long time probably. So im fine with who knows. I draw the line at religions because i think much of them are created by persons who use the fear of death in humans to manipulate them to do things that they want them to do.
At least thats how they are used mainly nowadays, especially in the united states. Maybe some of the original writers of the bible were sincere, but theyre long gone.
Theres a great lecture series on how religions are now male dominated and before were female dominated called "The terror of history" by Teofilo Ruiz
Look it up, all sorts of great insights on how religion is a tool used by males to keep females down.
Personally i beleive there are probably gods out there. Not god, but gods. Creatures out there in space that are to us what we are to ants. But i probably wont ever meet those creatures or any other weird space creatures before im dead.
And that sucks.
