..."Shafted"? .....I honestly don't know what that means...

Personally, I'm glad I don't have to deal with remembering which god does what, or even having a god in everything. Then we can get down to business and get some real science done.
I mean they're a good story most of the time... but that's all.

That's my logic/practical opinion.

Religious opinion: I think Christianity's interesting, exciting, and more personal/practical. Then of course, it works. That can't be said about the 'cool' religions referenced.

Well, I wasn't offended. You asked me what I thought, so I said my opinion.
I think they're fun stories, but not fun religions.

If you ask me I think the mythologys had a better way of explaining suffering in world.

With most religions they say; 'Its all according to gods plan' and 'Who are we to question the lord?'

But with greek mythology they pretty much say 'Zeus got really drnk one day and thats why our house burned down.' I could believe that rather than, 'Tis gods will'

I do think mythology is more interesting in comparison, but personally there will only be one god for me;

what do you think about gods? Aslan-Lion-2-The-Chronicles-of-Narnia-Wallpaper

Aslan; cause Jesus should have been a lion.

Yeah same. I'm thinking about writing them all out in chronological order for reference. Like the idea?

I am Catholic and find these beliefs awesome and true and even on Rick's books they say the mythology he is writing about in the book is fake. JESUS FTW!
