Evolution vs Religion

Read an article this morning on Charles Darwin and his atheist tendencies(anti-religious). Its interesting how many times he almost believed in a GOD that existed who created the universe. Interesting how in a certain sense he half convinced himself not to believe because his beloved father and grand father were strong disbelievers and had both passed away... he felt that if he chose to believe in it, it would mean believing that his family was enduring eternal punishment in their afterlife.

Interesting how many many things in the world can affect our path to religion or away from religion.

Just a thought.

You know those games that people play online? Where they answer a chunk of questions and then pass it on to someone else. I used to think that these games were really silly... when i was being tagged and asked to pass it on. But now when i don't get tagged, and feel kinda out of the loop even though I want in. I start to see how a silly game like this could actually be your link to the rest of the world out there while you're still immersed in your own 'superstar' life or rather the life that is your result from joining the competition and making other decisions in life.

Its all about belonging. But when you feel you no longer belong, that's when you ask yourself if there's anything you can do about it or are the good times long gone.

Religion is definitely not just between you and God. Its the love between you and your fellowmen. I think I have a friend, who has been like a lighthouse on my life's journey. Although sometimes i ignore that light and search high and low for something else, at the end of it all you always shine most brightly. And yet, its sometimes so bright that it hurts my eyes and i dare not go near it.

At this point.... i feel... stuck in the middle of nowhere.
