Re: Interesting topic
Hi there.
I really couldn't have put that better myself. That's what really gets me about religion, maybe people do help others because it's nice to be nice, but i can't help feeling that people are nice because they believe they'll be rewarded for it when they get to heaven. It seems incredibly mercenary and shallow. What if you didn't believe in any afterlife, karma etc and you we're nice, and you did help your fellow man out. This seems a much more worthwhile person to be, or aspire to be.
