Even if god exists religion can't possibly be the way to god (lemmy.world)

So I thought about this in the shower amd it makes sense to me, like praying and stuff never worked for most people I know, so a direkt link to god gotta be unlikely. That made me conclude that religion is probably fake, no matter if there's a god or not. Also people speaking to the same god being given a different set of rules sounds stupid, so at least most religions must be fake.

As it turns out, you can believe whatever you want. Religion isn't something you can really solve with logic. It is called faith for a reason.

The fact that you can't reasonably and logically come to the conclusion that God exists, pretty much tells you all you need to know about God and religion.

That's not how faith works though
