Ahaha, I'm totally taking the most generic subjects here, but do you think religion is good? Or bad? Or does God exist at all?

I'll make this quick and simple to understand.
I'm a Christian. I don't have religion. Religion is man's attempt to reach God or God-like levels. I believe in a God. I believe Christianity is a relationship between God and Man.
I believe in Jesus. I believe he was beautiful on the inside and regular on the outside, unlike all the pictures you see. I'm not afraid to die, I do believe I'm forgiven and will go to heaven. I believe in hell, it's very real, Jesus preached more about hell then heaven.
I'm not perfect and I never said I was. I don't spend the time I need to everyday in meditation. I say and do foul and terrible things without trying to completely repent.
I believe Christianity has been greatly screwed up Christians themselves. I don't believe one division of Christianity saves, you can be a part of any as long as you truly have Jesus in heart and believe and live it.
I believe in evolution as living things do change over time. I believe Science and Christianity should knock down those walls and unite! They're like bread and butter, they go perfectly together as they fill in answers to a question that the other has.

I do not really know. But revolving my life around something seems stupid. I have my own morals, and my own senses. I don't need someone else to decide those types of things for me.
So, simply I don't care if there is a god. If he's real, good for him, if he's not, good for him. We're here, therefor we are.

you're just like me I gave up religion only because it stands in my way to live how I want to instead of following things that don't make me me I just let go of it all

I'd say I believe in a mix of several different religions. There are some things in Christianity that I cannot accept, but it's very conflicting with the fact that I do believe there is a God.

I don't think religion itself is good or bad, religion simply is. Religious people however, can very much be good or bad, but it all comes down to the people. Pick any religion and you can find very good people who spend their time helping others as well as bad people who spend their time trying hurt others. Its all in the person, the religion mostly seems to become a means of justifying whatever mentality they already have towards others.
As for whether or not God is real, that's one I prefer to leave for the philosophers. I'm well aware of my intellectual limitations.
