I have mused reality for a while, and wanted to get a few more points of view on what I have personally concluded.
As I've grown up from my pre-teen years and am now almost out of high school, I have come to realise a LOT of what my parents taught me to be true (Christianity and a great moral compass) turned out to be very, very subjective things. Getting comfortable with that took a while, but I have been fine knowing that I don't have the answers and will maybe never know. Everyone these days, at least in America, debate Christianity vs Atheism all the time. Which could be right? Well, I say the answer is neither and both. Reality itself is an extremely subjective thing. What is real is what a person perceives to be real. Each person therefore has a different reality, and whether they choose to base their reality off of another's beliefs or the human-made concepts that represent science is their choice. This is why I hate when Atheists or Christians try to debate who's "right". It's like telling me my opinion is wrong, at least in my eyes. I believe that because of reality's subjective nature, no belief can be held as complete truth. Anyways, I hope I didn't turn that into a rant. I would like others to discuss their feelings about my personal findings. -------------------- everybody's doing it

To be honest, my feelings about your personal findings is that they sound an awful lot like any personal finding would if you took a philosophy class and applied it to religion. The struggle isn't really to find out why theism and atheism may never get along, it's been how we're supposed to get the annoying members of either party to shut the hell up. With that said, I will also say that this particular revelation is one that is definitely important for everyone to make. Maybe if everyone did make that revelation the annoying members of the "theism vs atheism" debate would cease to exist since everyone would realize that they're just as annoying as they feel the opposition is being.
