Whether or not god exists, I still believe in Karl Marx: "religion is the opiate of the people"
Isn't the whole point of the thread to discuss that point? :PQuote:

But if I just went to mass anyway and pretended to believe, I can't see that being a positive approach really. I guess it reverts back to what I said about just knowing inside me that God doesn't exist. I'll also repeat that I obviously understand this isn't a valid argument but it's just my personal feelings. I guess others just need to accept this as I should accept their beliefs respectively.
yeah i mean im not trying to say you should go back if you don't believe, but there's some good youth clubs you can try to go to that are run by the church. just an idea lol
