god is nothing more than a tool, used by the church to keep mankind in check, the roman catholic church used gods name for power and wealth in the preceeding centuries to keep control of the political and banking worlds, it may have started out as a faith based religion, but it soon became nothing more than a power play to keep the lesser informed patrons of the church inline, and to keep money flowing to the rich and powerfull, the churches made law, and to keep that power, they kept vital secrets from the public which would have helped the human race evolve at a rapid pace, keeping this information to themselves ensured the church a stronghold on the government and people it protected for a long time to come, to this day, i believe that thier is information that the church has kept hidden from the peoples in order to maintain some sorrt of powerplay in the world today, god dosent live in heaven, he never existed, he lives in your heart, and as long as you can believe in an afterlife, then your days here on earth can be as fulfilling as any to come in this so called afterlife, piss on the church, what exactly have they ever done for you/me lately?do we really need them? i think not.and we damn sure dont need fanaticle assclowns like billy graham. but thats just my opinion, i could be wrong.
