Poker Gaming and Life: Religion....for DS\'s playground
just read some of DS's short thoughts about life at the end of his book.
honestly, i was fairly impressed and i enjoyed them.
one that stuck out that i am still pondering is the following. it comes under the topic of things that are hard to refute:
if there are 100 religions that believe 100 different things, the number of religions that believe something that is incorrect MAY be all 100 of them. but it is AT LEAST 99.
while this may be true and is definately hard to refute, im more interested in the implications therein.
particularly what can be implied about the likelihood of a religion being correct. im currently operating as if EVERY religino is wrong and nobody knows anything because if there is a god then the interpretation of that deity by a human is pretty much guaranteed to be incorrect or at least biased by the nuture that person has received up until the point of being able to grasp the concept of a greater power.
it would affect my state of mind if i KNEW that at least one religion was correct.
any thoughts.
