Not 'all' sir. Religion often functions as the 'opium of the masses' (Marx) and tells those in poverty and hardship to accept their lot in life and wait for their reward in the hereafter. (Thus maintaining the status quo of suffering and inequality).
all denying that. They also use government and any other thing possible. Those that
are only looking for God in the here after, more than likely don't know Him now
He is our great reward, there is nothing better than a relationship with Him. That only
comes when we answer His call upon our lives, everything else, is less than.

People like Marx and yourself like to blame others and do nothing yourself. You are warm and dry and eat and play on the internet while others suffer.
You then blame religion and continue on not helping others.

I chose to work in a caring profession. If I was driven by money I could easily have worked in the city behind a desk. (And the people I care for don't pay my salary).
The minute you blamed religion and took blame off yourself you became the hypocrite and liar.

And i didn't claim religion caused the suffering, just deterred the sufferers from doing anything about it.

The goups are those who believe God and those who don't.
The reason for not believing God is not needed.
Atheists would be part of those who do not agree.
Just dogma, a waste of time for any thinking person.
And you're guys tactics don't change : you try to coerce us through fear to accept the Christian bible.
How about trying to win over people with reason and sound logic?
No? That's because you cant.
Originally posted by @karoly-aczelChrist isn’t an argument He is. Arguing God simply turns Him into a topic of human judgment, while the reality of God is He is Lord of the universe. You can argue sports, politics, right and wrong but God is above that and we are full of ourselves to think we can stand in judgement of God.
