What constitutes a religion? If I decide of my own accord to say a few words in praise of the Sun at Sunrise and Sunset, does that make me part of a religion? I am aware that Sun worship is probably the oldest form of worship, but is it a religion?

Flob..I take it that by 'tangible' you don't really mean tangible do you?

My mistake. I just meant real. I've now learned what tangible means, thanks jomifl.
if you worship the sun, the moon and the moonies might get jealous and start smiting you and stuff. they can move oceans.
MarkRae, keyplus and sandyRoe support each other here. As MarkRae says, you worship non-existent things not realities like the sun. sandyRoe and keyplus say the same.

"It can't acknowledge your worship, so what good could it do...? "

I would love to see some evidence of acknowledgment from any God, from any praying.

and if you need to pray (really just another word for begging) is that God really worthy.

If I see that someone needs my help, they don’t need to go on their knees to me, they don’t need to beg and pray and chant silly verses, they can just ask, the chances are that I wouldn’t wait to be asked, I would volunteer my help. I don’t like to see people demean themselves on my behalf.

Dear God/Allah, you are an A$$H0le of the highest order, please feel free to strike me down at your earliest convenience.

Dear Flying Spaghetti monster, please tie me up with a long piece of spaghetti.

Im not sure which one is going to get me first, I know I should be terrified now, but do you know something ......... lolol
