Heh, course he is.

Subtle, Trippy :P If you're gonna put devil numbers in your posts, try to hide em :P

Trippy. Let me explain something. All religion is brainwashing. It's pure indoctrination. From when we're little children there are people who influence us. Most of all our parents, they are the ones who choose our religion. It's up to us to decide if we want to continue to believe in that religion, but by the time our brains are developed enough to think for ourselves, we've been indoctrinated to think nothing else. Then our brains develop even more, at about the time we become teenagers and then we begin to question faiths and so on and so forth. I'm with you though. I don't believe in Catholicism or Christianity even though I'm supposedly Catholic, I pretend to though. There's a really cute girl and Yeah...

He was taking the piss out of another thread :P

That aside, good on you for forming your own opinions on religion instead of taking your parents' views without challenging them. Good luck with that cute girl, you better hope she isn't Catholic though :P
