IN response to George Cowley, I am 31 years old and I walk six miles every evening. I do classes in martial arts and I do not dislike religion. It's just that, like most people I know, I don't believe there is much truth in religion.

I have experienced death at first hand many times. I believe the ability to face death and the strength to face it both come from within.

Also, if religion is good, why is there so much suffering and unrest in places like Ireland and the Middle East ?

These wars are religion against religion. You cannot justify the unjustifiable.
