This is my over all point. I feel that many people believe because they are told they are supposed to and not because they truly understand their religion of choice. Ignorance is the greatest threat against humanity yet people embrace it willingly and without remorse. I'm not trying to change anyone's point of view or challenge their beliefs but rather challenge the reasons WHY they believe. I've often said that if you truly believe in something then good for you. But don't commit to something that you really have no idea about just for the sake of "fitting in" or because you have been told to do so since birth. We have all have free will (whether given to us by a god or not) and we have the choice to follow what we hold true and I feel that many people who follow a set religion fail to realize this.
