    Many religious people are just cynics too. That is part of the reason they turn to religion in the first place, because they don't really believe in either themselves or the human future.
    Some even want 'the end of the world' now. They are that cynical.

    Oh, I gave all other things a chance, but 'the end of the World' fits me the most.

    It's estimated, that by 2008 we'll have the Ability to fly to Mars...
    True, we're already able, Technicly, but legally is another story.

    Now, I believe I'll get raptured first. ;)

    Good, maybe you'll catch up with your brain, 'cuz it's already been "raptured", apparently.

    LOL...of course, I'm just kidding, ryu. But, I couldn't resist!

    there are other definitions of religion that do not include the supernatural. religion is one of the most natural things that we do. from the latin "relegere", coming together. from rock concerts to rainbow gatherings

    We are speaking of the "supernatural" versions, mati, not the extensive broad definition of assembly.
