Ok, here's the way I look at things...

Religion is a crock of shit. It's too easy to give people something to believe in, write a book, and become rich and famous... As for God, I will say there is A God. There is a god as there is a heaven and a hell... within you. No one can say who God is, because he is who you make him. Just like no one can say what heaven and hell is, because they are what you make of them. This whole Catholicism and Christianity religion crap is bullshit(sorry if i offend someone) How can you sit there and let someone tell you what to believe? Ex: I walk up to you on the street, not knowing you. I tell you if you follow me wherever I go, I'll give you the continent of Africa. Would you believe me? But would you believe it if a High Priest told you? It's all just manipulation, something to keep people en masse from going against their wills.
Now, I'm not saying all religion is bullshit, but most mass religion seems funny to me, religion should be more personal faith, not faith in a cross or faith in a statue.

As for the whole creation vs. evolution thing... who knows? For someone biased towards science, of course evolution is easy to believe. But whose to say whose right? None of us were there, and we can't travel in time yet. If a scientist finds out creation is really what happened, do you think he'd make it public? If a priest found out that evolution is the way tables turned, do you think he'd let everyone know and possibly cause chaos? That's why I'll just believe what I see, for myself.

Wow, I really rambled.... lol

PostScript: I just want to clarify that I'm not saying anyone here is wrong, this is my personal opinion. I think that if what you believe in makes you at ease with yourself and thats what you truly believe, than that is how it is for YOU.
