Religious life can be of great help to an individual when that individual is working on self-improvement. The problem comes when a group or individual begins to try to impose their system on others. I support freedom of religion which includes freedom from religion.
I was hitching a ride back from DC with a bunch o' freeks and people in the gas station at a stop asked me if we were part of a cult.

HA!
as long as your religion does not require or condone KILLING of non believers, I say have a blast. as soon as it does, I am FULLY against it.
Right now the obvious choice for this scenario would be Islam. The other two biggies have gone through reform and stopped killing apostates thousands of years ago.
Mormons. They believe all the same crap the Evangelicals do, plus that whole "God left Divine messages on gold plates & Jesus visited North America & the Cherokee are the missing 12th tribe" nonsense on top of it. But they do stitch nice wallets w/the Denver Bronco's logo on the inside . . .
So I've been meaning to tell you, that was a sick mile high joke.
I wasn't joking.
The Moyel Chai Club.
You know how moyels suck baby dick? Wait, wait, what's a moyel? Honestly, are you Jewish? You're not supposed to be on this trip if you're not.
Dude, I'm sorry, what the (bleep) is a moyel, and why are they sucking baby dick? A moyel is the Jewish dude who performs the circumcisions.
You know, like a a bris.
So they don't do it in the hospital, so these rabbis can do whatever they want.
So they take the detached baby foreskin, and they roll it around in their mouths with wine.
(retching) And then they suck the baby dick itself to stop the bleeding.
What the (bleep) are you talking about? Literally Judaism.
So at every bris, someone sucks a baby dick? Only the most sacred ceremonies do we get to have the baby dick sucking.
They get to have it? Yeah, it's like, Christian people get the Nilla wafer and we get - Like a sacrament.
- What? It's a wafer and when you take it in your mouth, you let go of all your sins.
- It's actually like, a beautiful ceremony.
- All right.
So we're going to Israel right now, and we're supposed to be Jewish.
Anyway, Moyel Chai Club.
I want to (bleep) a dick on this flight, babe! An adult dick, obviously.
I can't believe that you want to (bleep) a dick after everything that just came out of your mouth.
Something about doing it in the sky.
Ilana, look! Oh, my God, dude, this is a free movie! Maybe you are a Jew.
I'm with Timmy. All religions have something positive to teach. All religions also have freaks. You know, the people who forego medicine because it's not God's will, or the Hasidim who practice incest, or crazy jihadists,
I really can't speak for anyone else, Slack. Personally, as long as someone doesn't try to shove their beliefs down my throat, I really don't care. Jewish, Christian, Muslim, it's all good to me.
>The other two biggies have gone through reform and stopped killing apostates thousands of years ago.
Not thousands of years ago. Just look at the history of the Missions in California, and the rest of America where millions of non Christian natives were enslaved and/or killed.
Unbelievable that a Librarian could be so dumb. The Research Librarian who lives in my neigbhorhood would be aghast.
>Following the recent spate of bomb threats against Jewish community centres and the desecration of graves at cemeteries in Philadelphia and St. Louis, some Muslims have turned to social media to offer to guard Jewish sites.
The offers to protect religious sites have come from Muslims who include military servicemen, lawyers and Emmy Award-winning TV broadcasters.
The JCC Association of North America, a network of cultural centres, reported more than 100 bomb threats against Jewish centres in the first two months of 2017.
On Monday alone, the organisation said another 31 threats were made against Jewish centres including a gunshot fired through a Hebrew school window at an Indiana synagogue.
Viral solidarity
In a tweet, a former Muslim marine, Tayyib Rashid, pledged: "If your synagogue or Jewish cemetery needs someone to stand guard, count me in. Islam requires it."

thanks for the encouragement!
It's amazing how much the body gets accustomed to it.
i guess it's like anything else physical, like exercise, playing an instrument, doing drugs, etc.
what use to feel like a lot now feels like nothing.
biggest conspicuous benefit so far is a noticeable diminishing of how strongly I seem to b capable of feeling negative emotions.
it's getting more and more difficult to sweat the small stuff and even major shit doesn't seem to cut as deep.
i find myself appreciating the little pleasures in life more as well.
it's pretty cool.
