There is no heaven, there is no hell.
There is no God, there was no Jesus (at least not one that came back to life)
If one religion is right or true...why not others? Why was or is there not still a Poseidon or Asclepius or Imhotep or Emu Man etc...
Religion is just an explanation people came up with for the world around them. There aren't four humours, but in Ancient Greece it was a good idea at the time. With time and knowledge, it has been proven that illness is caused by micro organisms and that blood circulates around the body and doesn't get used up. So many past beliefs have now been proven wrong...
Religion is just a fantasy. What puzzles me though is how very intelligent people can believe in a God or follow a religion. There must be a basic human need for understanding...maybe if you know something (or think you know it), it makes it less scary or more acceptable.
Everything is what you perceive it to be. You should open your eyes and not follow blindly. This is my view.
Oh and the devil is a euphemism for Emperor Nero. There was a detailed explanation in a programme I watched on TV. 666 has some kind of relevance to the actual era also. I forget how. But everything in the bible is not literal, and much of it is just not true. Literally, there is no devil but that is how Nero was perceived and he did some crazy shit.
