Why is it considered alright in our society for someone to believe in God but if someone believes in the lochness monster or the boogeyman we consider them to be insane?
It's no different. Why is it considered sane to believe in God when there's no evidence for His existence but it's considered insane to believe in ghosts or monsters or the tooth fairy or santa clause?
Christians will be the first to tell someone that they are insane if they believe in aliens or monsters or the easter bunny. Well by that same argument it's insane to believe in God too.

You are quick to generalize. I don't tell anyone they are crazy.Define crazy? In what situation is the person crazy? Is it cultural craziness? What is the function of craziness? Who does the craziness benefit? Is it beneficial to anyone? And yes, I believe in ghost/spirits.

I have seen a few of those in my time. I have seen my dad a couple of times, and I feel his comfort a lot. Today is his birthday, he would have been 65. Yo daddy, the Raiders still suck

1) The majority decides what's "crazy". Currently, the majority are religious.
2) Crazy people don't know they're crazy.
The majority believed the world was flat at one point, it didn't make it the truth, and the term crazy itself is an indication of lack of thought and understanding. Different, doesn't mean crazy.

Just as many waste their time talking to the imagery friend they call god.

Why is it okay to believe there is no God? Why is it okay to believe the Earth sits on the back of an elephant, which stands on the back of a turtle? Why is it okay to believe that our ancestors come back to eat food set out for us? Again you are talking about freedom of choice. Each one of us makes it. You stand by what you believe, we stand by what we believe. You believe their is no god...Fine and dandy. I believe there is one God and through His son I am saved. That works for me. Others believe in ghosts, spirits, and animal totems. All speak about what they believe. All stand up for what they believe. Is that truly to hard to grasp my friend? Are you too blind to see that you are asking the same question over and over again? Is your wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of the world around you that small that you can't see all is a matter of choice?
Barefoot you as very poor questions. Not because you want enlightenment, because enlightenment is able to look at all things in relation, but because you wish to degrade, belittle, bring conflict, and disharmony. And that is sad. Do you really hate Christianity so much? Did your parents wanting the best thing for you really embittered you this much? Have you harden your heart to the point when people in the faith try to rationalize with you that you cannot hear what they say unless it is the negative?
Like I told Moai...This is the last time I will comment to you as well. Play your games all you want. That is your right and freedom. Point your fingers, make your accusations, make your mockeries. This is your life and you do as you please. Good luck out there and I pray for you.

You only have one life to live...Or do you?
