Confused about religion

I don't know how much chaos my opinion about religion would create, but i'd like to express it anyway. These thoughts could very well be my confusion toward spirituality, but they are still my thought.

I just think that Islam died when Prophet mohammed died, Christianity died when Paul took over the affair of Jesus Christ, and Moses just happened to end up in the wrong place. He really should have landed a bit further on any significant oil reserve. Then all they had to do was to hold on to the land until British would have discovered the oil

I think the world would have been a more peaceful place then now

So I believe to the contraire, that Christianity did not end or the essence was not lost due to the work of Paul, but in fact it complied with Jesus' mandate of taking the gospel to the world.

I don't think it is possible to declare a religion dead so long as there is one person that believes in it. But modern day Christianity is a sorry thing. (I will not talk about Islam, cause I have little knowledge).
In christianity it is like this: "Jesus died for our sins, so now I can do all the sins I want to do. Jesus saved me, I'll go to heaven eitther way."
The whole religion has become a breeding ground for misguided sinners.

"Jesus said you shall not eat meat", I once told a christian carnivor, "so if you follow Jesus you shouldn't eat meat."
The meat-eater looked at me and said: "Jesus ate meat", his whole attidude screaming "in your face".
So I asked: "So you follow Jesus by mimicking him?"
"Yes"
"So you eat meat even though he says not to?"
"Yes"
"Do you know why Jesus ate meat?"
"No"
"Have you devoted your life to spreading the word of god?"
"No"
"Why not. You said you mimick Jesus. He devoted his life to spreading the word of god."
"Because I am not Jesus"
"Right. You are his follower. Shouldn't you then be guided by his words rather than his actions?"

At this point I got up and left, disgusted. Jesus to this guy was the reason he didn't have to take any real responsibility in his life. That is why I usually come to the conclusion that christians are the people least worthy of god, since they use him as their own private devil...

2This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands.

My thoughts also nibty. Strangely, though, the place I encounter attitudes like yours is not in religious cirles, where the idols of morality are pretty much taken for granted. God said, and so it is. No question. Its among the people who are not religious, in the sense that they follow a specific religion, I find the people who are most true to the teachings of jesus. Strange

Hey...whatever gets ya past the graveyard!!!

We can all agree that if you teach something you don't really know you are a fraud. What then if you act on a code you don't understand? Aren't you equally a fraud?

Good one frank.
