Christianity

I don't know if I ever been a truly catholic person. I was baptized, and I did the first communion, because I was a child and my parents forced me to do it. When I was in the first communion classes, we used a book which talked about Jesus and that stuff, and by the end of the lesson, you had to compromise yourself to do one good thing, swering before God that you'll must do that thing all a week. And I thought I was a bad person, with 8 years old, because I'll never fulfill that promise. I thought I didn't deserve to do the first communion, because I was a bad girl who doesn't fulfill her promises before God.

When I was a little older, fifteen or something, one day I discover by myself that "life is just one", and I was living so quiet and calm, believing that shit about life beyond death and all that crap religion makes you think, even unconsciously. But life ends with death, and there's nothing more. That was an horrifying revelation.

 I think religion acts like some kind of limit for human beings. It don't let them be the way they really, truly deep inside want to be. It's says to them how to act, how to live, how to love, work, think… It's says to them they need to be good, otherwise, they'll suffer forever in hell; they'll be punished by God himself when they'll die by all their sins.

I believe people must be good and nice and kind because they want to be, not because they're afraid of divine punishment. And if they don't want to be good… well, that's part of nature humanizes; choosing.
