There could be an unknown universal force behind the so called big bang, and if anyone wants to call it GOD then fine by me.

BUT, I am absolutely certain than none of the religions or cults on earth has got it right.

Religion is the root to all evil, and might actually lead to the end of civilisation.
Many religions have armageddon as the ultimate "goal", and thereby the situation could spiral in this direction.
As things get worse, this could lead to more people believe that the religions has got it right and join in on the "fun".

As many people seems to need to believe in something to function well, I can only hope that the more up-to-date religions increase in popularity compared to the more outdated ones.

Reading the bible letter-by-letter is not a good thing.
And doing the same with the book that we can't even mention without getting into trouble is also not a good thing.

In my head Jesus was a dude trying to modernize the stubborn old-school guys.
Not sure about the other one that doesn't like to be in pictures.

Maybe "the force" in Star Wars is a better choice to believe in.

As a side note:

Standard organizations often face similar problems when trying to agree on a new common standard.
Members from the different previous standards are reluctant to give up the methods and regulations in their old standards, although they can often not explain the reason or background for these methods and regulations. The people who made them are now dead.

At the time written they made perfect sense to someone, and was useful and much better than nothing.

It's still a few years until science can explain stuff like this.
Religion will have to do for those in need of an answer right now.

Some people can use a branch from a tree to point on a map where a missing person is lying dead in the forest.
Maybe there is a common memory backup server out there that some people can tap into.
This boy got a previously used space that wasn't properly erased.

Xavier from X-men had some sort of connection device.

I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned

[Snowy79]

As long as God gets his judgement for scuttling Mary whilst Joseph was out trying to earn a living.

I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned

[GastonJ]

That's according to Mary though, so you never know

[Cronus]

If God had sex with Mary without her consent then that's rape. Alternatively, Mary consented in which case she committed adultery (breaking God's seventh commandment).

Now considering Jesus had a rapist for a father or an adulterer for a mother, how can he be so preachy about things?

There is also this point:

The first commandment state: "I am the Lord your God, you shall have no other Gods but me."
The first two deadly sins are: "Vanity & Envy."

Hypocrite!!!

If there is a God though then he can't have been very clever. If he had just taken out a few more ribs, Adam wouldn't have needed a woman at all.

[Shady]

a news story way back when stated that a house hadbeen destroyed by some form of weather (cant remember what type, tornado or summat).. anyhoo, a woman in the house survived and thanked god for saving her...

that would be the same god that just ~~~~ing destroyed your house and killed the rest of the inhabitants yeah?
no offence, but if you believe in god, your a silly ~~~~er.

[GastonJ]

God is a made up excuse:

1) So that priests can claim to be better then everyone else
2) So whatever church can make money/goods/whatever in the name of god
3) So that wars can be started and fought in the name of someone who doesn't exist

At least the scientologists haven't used such an excuse for killing anyone that I know of. Mind you they are all nutcases
