Religion: What it means to you

I am a Christian. I am not religious. In other words, I don't just believe in God, but I go to church, help out at church, do outreach for youth, etc. There is a big difference in faith, and being religous however... true faith is when you "want" to believe in God or whatever you may call him.. it's when you have a passion for what you stand up for and actually stem a relationship with God.
Being religious is deceiving... anyone can be religious - all they do is go to church once a week, be really nice to people, and think it's all fine.... just being religious is the biggest problem in today's society because it is the "easy" way out.. anyone can do it... but its not Biblical.

Religion is believed to come from many differen origins. A Marxist idea of religion is that it is based on controlling economy - such that it is controlled by the wealthy and advertised amongst the poor.. etc (read about Marx beliefs on Religion) Some believe it is stemmed from human fears - such is so that we "create" religion to cope with our insecurities and fears of the world we live in... As for my personal belief - I don't believe in Christianity is one of these "religions" being from people (manmade) etc... I believe that it is theological truth that we are both exposed to and hidden from (thus explaining why we don't have "all" the answers) I believe that God hides some of theology from us so that there is that aspect of "believing" or "faithfulness" that must be involved... We have to believe - God doesn't want "religious" Christians..

Why does God exist?
I use both the theories of "Evolution" and Christianity to explain why there is a God.

Think about this- your evolution-believing friend tells you that everything in this world (humanity, resources, animals, "creation" as its called) all stems from the "Big Bang" - Yes, and this is usually where the Christian will counter-act with a few Bible verses, etc..
But how about stopping there instead and asking the evolutionist a simple question - "Why? Where did this single ball of harnessed energy containing all the contents of the "Big Bang" come from?.. Looking at physics - we understand that our world consists of 4 dimensions: longitude, latitude, altitude, and time. Time is the important factor here as it opens the doors for motion, speed, movement, etc. According to the Big Bang theory - time is considered one of the things harnessed within this single force at the beginning of our universe. Now think about this - If "Time" is within this thing called a singularity, then what is the catalyst, or "cause" of the actual "Big Bang"? If time is non-existent around this "singularity" then there can be no movement, impulse, or action possible to start the infinite chain of events in which we call our universe!... There has to be a "supernatural" power - God must be included in the equation in order for evolution to work..
Another perspective - the idea that our universe is based on random actions - is pretty much retarded to believe in. According to mathematician Fred Hoyle, the probability of the formation and evolution of one cell would be about 10 ^20 . (1/1000000000000000000000th i think thats right) basically, we would need all the 2000 enzymes needed for life just randomly present on this earth at that exact spot of the one cell in order for that cell to evolve successfully. It is just as comparible as placing a bunch of screws, a wrist band, a battery, a piece of glass, a minute hand, an hour hand, and a seconds hand, all into a wooden box, shaking it up, and getting a working watch in the outcome.. Stuff like that "is" technically possible - but I'm just sorry-I really can't believe it happened on its own... there must be a Creator!!

Jam it back in, in the dark.
