In a previous blog supporting the comedic genius of Bill Maher, I might have given the impression that I was atheist.
My religious beliefs are more simplistic than I’ve seen from either atheism or any organized religion. In summary, everyone should be as helpful to the rest of humanity as possible, in every sense of that phrase, and life will sort out the rest.
To fairly represent this stance, below is a TED Talk given by the same Rick Warren, author of The Purpose-Driven Life, that Bill Maher bashed in his nine-minute rant. I think it’s best for people to compare the two and find the truth laying somewhere in-between.
Regardless of your opinion of Rick Warren, I agree with his speech explaining the importance of the human spirit, individual purpose, and the dangers of materialism.
