Some thoughts about religion -- I do not mean to offend anybody. This is just something that I find interesting and would like to discuss.

wineandance(对酒当歌)

AS far as I know, a lot of people in high social class (well educated, good job, good income) are also not religious. It is true that religions like christian and buddihst advocate kindness, forgiving, tolerance and so on. But I think usually more people in lower social class or in poorer areas are religious. That is why Chrisitian is so popular in China's rural areas. Religions are actually more like a kind of relief, or something that are not real, but can be counted on spiritially. People have to have a hope or a goal to live anyway. When the environments do not provide such hopes, religions are a substitute.

Why you always have such a good remembrance for right person? do you remember me? :) -noproblem(大可以); 2004-7-23 (#1814909@0)

你被人群欧，兄弟我奋不顾身替你挡了一刀，你现时却来说这话。BTW, what is "right person"? -win(秋天的菠菜); 2004-7-23 (#1815029@0)

我要不替你UP帖子, 早就沉底了, 不过你替我挡刀子也算是撤平了:) -noproblem(大可以); 2004-7-24 (#1816254@0)

What is your guess based upon? And this post has nothing to do with AGE........and don't say that I am naive -wineandance(对酒当歌); 2004-7-24 (#1815461@0)

no hard feeling, buddy. speaking of AGE, I feel elder people are more religious. My theory, sorry to say that, looks much more reasonable and truthful than yours. -win(秋天的菠菜); 2004-7-24 (#1815751@0)

typical STEREOTYPING -wineandance(对酒当歌); 2004-7-24 (#1815775@0)

hmmmm, maybe, sometimes I am justing being silly...... -wineandance(对酒当歌); 2004-7-26 (#1817563@0)

The fact that I know is just to the opposite of yours, and you may remember that rural population is much bigger than that of the urban. -maer(马儿); 2004-7-24 (#1815477@0)
I won't guess your age. But I guess you must be very new in North America. -lsx(lsx); 2004-7-25 (#1816966@0)
