You continue to be a rich source of entertainment. Does Ethics work the same way? Either there is a reality out there or there is not. Do you understand your own assumption when you conclude that religion is something you can just decide for yourself? In other words, either there is a God, and there is a framework for our relationship with that God..........or there is not. If there is not then sure, just make it up as you go along. And be sure it's nice and convenient for you. But if there really is a God, and if there really is a framework for our relationship with Him, then the religion you made up for yourself is convenient.........and useless. Do you get to make up stuff like "wrong" and "right" also?
