    Why are you an atheist?

    I don't see the point of religion. It detracts my focus from the here and now and that's where it needs to be. I feel the only reason peole cling to faith is because they're too afraid of reality.

    Exist? Yes. Visited Earth? Probably not, but I wouldn't rule it out. Altered our evolution? Doubtful.

    Interest in Sikhism

    Whoa, that's a lot haha. So is Sikhism similar to Buddhism? It looks that way, but it seems Sikhism includes more tradition and specific practices. One question I have though regards the "superstition" thing. It states that Sikhs shouldn't blindly practice certain rituals, but isn't that...

    Interest in Sikhism

    I've always heard of Sikhism, but never quite understood what it meant. I've recently been reading up on it in any way I could, but still seem to lack some of the more basic knowledge of Sikhs. I understand the basic tenets of being a good person, but from what I've seen so far, it's very...
