RE: Religion, it is not what it is cracked up to be!
Zero Point  Wrote:
I read a Buddhist text somewhere or other:

The holiest of scriptures are merely rags with which to wipe the pus from your boils.

I'd be a Buddhist, but they don't believe in God.

To the best of my knowledge the Buddha didn't try to explain things that were unknowable, he gave up on that and tried to help his fellow human beings with overcoming suffering, which is our inherent condition.
