Exactly. Now, we don't really believe in gods. I guess we don't live in fear anymore.

Not really. Why else would people go to church, or a mosque, or whatever, and pray, if they don't fear these so-called gods? No offence to any religious people here, but it seems like a dumb idea to me, and a waste of time better spent doing something else more productive.

I think they should just go out into nature and admire it, if they believe in gods, because they won't be tainted by a wana-be priest. I think priests are evil and they just call the shots, since everyone is already eating out of their hands.

Little_Killer: There is still plenty to fear.
Nomercy: They dont exactly fear the gods, but more the consequence of going to hell and spending eternity suffering.

Yeah, that. But to me it's all a big work of fiction, on par with LotR or something like that.

Not as much as long ago. We don't really believe in giant creatures and such because of technology.
Technology. . . soon it will take us over, yet it helps us. . . Will it take us over secretly since we give it sooooo much?

I don't see why we'd bother creating robots with free will to be honest. It seems illogical to give a machine built to help us the power to decide NOT to help us. Then there's the whole "is it a living thing with rights?" debate. I doubt anyone would want to go through all that fuss.

Yea. We are them. . . well some of us are. I wonder why? I think they are like that since their childhoods were so terrible.

Nobody's fault but your own. You choose to fire that gun, you choose to pull that pin, you choose your own destiny. Only difference is that some people think they have the right to choose when another's life comes to an end.
