I don't you that well so I can't answer the first 3 questions. But for my statement
well, yes, if ones actions are scripted ("it was gods way", or "this is what god
intended", "thank god for the food on my plate") then yes you are essenitally just a
pawn in the Matrix. How can one be independent and still believe in a god? Going
along to to the existence thread

I'm religious. Who do I hate? What actions have I done then blamed on God?
What accountability have I failed to take for myself?
Your entire statement is a generalization that basically makes me and
everyone else who has a faith into mindless drones. Not a good position to
take.
> This is why I hate religion's and do not believe a god could exist.
Religion is what people created way back when, when they needed an excuse to
hate. And to this day its still a reason to hate. Take religion out of
this and make them all atheists and we will see what's left of this war to
fight about.

did y then doesn't that mean if I kill A and kill B it was god that wanted
it.......God and Religion are a great way to have a lack of accountability
for ones actions.
