sounds reasonable to me
May 6th, 2010 at 11:44 am
Nope.
May 6th, 2010 at 11:54 am
Pretty much.
May 6th, 2010 at 12:23 pm
No it is not an escape from anything. Most religions have rules and traditions to follow.
May 6th, 2010 at 12:29 pm
No.
May 6th, 2010 at 1:01 pm
for some, but not for the hardcore Christians…but dude, u got to believe that there is a God and that there is an afterlife..
May 6th, 2010 at 1:10 pm
Yes…they choose to believe in the possibility of living eternity in hell because that sounds much better than reality.
May 6th, 2010 at 1:25 pm
Drug addiction has never helped me “escape from reality” its made me look at it from a different angle, and the only thing alcohol has ever helped me escape was my clothes…
May 6th, 2010 at 2:03 pm
it all stems from hope and fear. that’s what religion boils down to. Why else would you believe something you never saw, heard, smelled, or touched?
May 6th, 2010 at 2:15 pm
That sounds about right to me, throughout history humans have felt alone and feel the need to think they’re part of something bigger than themselves.
Wither that is true or not, can’t be proven either way.
May 6th, 2010 at 2:17 pm
wow i never thought of it that way
but yeah lol yeah it does seem like it
May 6th, 2010 at 3:06 pm
Most religious people were raised to believe from childhood, so it’s their only reality
May 6th, 2010 at 3:25 pm
My life was unhappy before I became a Christian and I tried to escape the unhappiness with alcohol. Thank God I am now free and have Jesus as my Savior. Nothing is missing from my life but thanks for your concern.
May 6th, 2010 at 3:38 pm
That’s what I’ve always thought. A crutch is a crutch.
May 6th, 2010 at 3:57 pm
I’ve found that my faith allows me to deal with reality in a healthier way. For example, my belief that God has a purpose for everything helps me think about what I can learn from any situation. Not that learning from everything isn’t possible without a God concept, but that’s the way I get there.
I’m sure some people use religion to escape reality, though.
May 6th, 2010 at 4:37 pm
Yes.
Religion escapes from the fact that there’s no life after death. But people are afraid, and say that’s BS and go off blissfully ignorant rather than except the hard, cold truth.
May 6th, 2010 at 5:17 pm
hmmm
May 6th, 2010 at 5:50 pm
I remember a T-Shirt from my misspent youth in the Seventies, “Reality is for those who can’t handle drugs”.
May 6th, 2010 at 6:44 pm
No way, it has some elements of that, sure, but it’s still much more than that.
May 6th, 2010 at 6:49 pm
Yes it is but also it acts like a security blanket for people to feel better about themselves so that their sky daddy can protect them
May 6th, 2010 at 6:50 pm
Chairman Mao described it as the “opiate of the masses”, I think he hit the nail on the head with that one.
May 6th, 2010 at 6:50 pm
good question! alot of people believe in excapism. meaning, go to church to avoid a lifestyle of self destruction.
May 6th, 2010 at 7:44 pm
Once the religion starts to take hold, the person goes through a phase of self-loathing and this leads to baptism. People seek out religion to fill a void in their life because they have been told over and over than religion fills the void in our lives, our longing to be with our creator. This is an artificial longing that does not exist except in religious doctrine. People live product lives without religion and they are good people too. Religion brow-beats us into believing we need that something extra in our lives to be whole.

Not always an escape for reality but sometimes a coping mechanism for reality. For example, Jane felt a terrible loss after the passing of her mother but was comforted by the belief that her mother was now in a better place with no more suffering. You see the reality is that her mother is dead, and Jane will never see her again. Jane accepts
May 6th, 2010 at 8:46 pm
I dont know about “religion” but a relatioinship with Jesus Christ is an escape into reality.
May 6th, 2010 at 9:00 pm
Well, I have often noticed how people attempting to rid themselves of drug or alcohol addiction often just substitute that drug with the Jesus drug…just trading addictions, really. I suppose religion is a less self destructive addiction, in the end…
May 6th, 2010 at 9:50 pm
Yes! Thank you! I think that it’s that, and an easy, very simple answer to all the questions of life and death (that, guess what, just happens to love everyone and everything totally!). The fact that they make up their own rules a lot of the time even further supports my claim (examples: they pretend that “Thou shall not kill” doesn’t count when people oppose their God, etc.) that this is just a happy place for them to rest on. “Hmm, I’m kind of feeling sad, because I don’t think I have a place in the universal plan. But wait! There’s God, who loves me, and must have a place for me! But what about death? Oh no, that’s worked out, we’ll all go to a fantasy land if we do everything “God” says!” It’s not only a happy place, it’s a reassurance. It’s something to make people stop thinking and just “believe”. Keen observation.
May 6th, 2010 at 10:27 pm
No lol, religion is something people choose to practise. You don’t need to follow it, but yeah heck you’ll end up in hell for sure by not. You decide, life is in your hands. You can fall off a building if you wanted to, or get run over by a car? But would you?
You should really consider taking the fact that goths and all those phonies, don’t actually know why they are goth or what is the meaning. They just do it.
Would you take that as someone non relgious. If you wnana know my say, I can tell you goths are missing a lot in their lives and are unhappy.
They don’t see the grey, only black.
May 6th, 2010 at 11:23 pm
hell no! Our lives are real , with pain and suffering, laughter and joy, etc. We just believe that God exists and we praise Him for that.
May 6th, 2010 at 11:32 pm
Sometimes.
But Jesus Christ is the escape from the religious, drug, alcohol or sex addictions.
Jesus fills the emptiness in side us that the other things (addictions) just didn’t fill.
So when our sins are taken away from us, then our hearts are restored with the Fathers heart and we have that 24/7 connection with Jesus & the Father, through the life line, the Holy Spirit. And there we get the spiritual drink (instead of drunkenness or drugs), the spiritual direction (instead of fruitless religious works), our heart intimacy needs met (instead of addictions to sex)…
Though many times Christians who are happy abiding in Christ are religious also. They just don’t have to be. There is therefor now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit for those in Christ Jesus, has set us free, from the law of sin & death.
Because perfect & undefiled religion before God our Father, is to visit the orphans and the widows. And to keep self from sinful living.

It’s more like a disguise for sinners and a hiding place for sexual deviants. Don’t confuse religion with spirituality, though. There are real benefits to seeking your spiritual nature, but it requires thinking for yourself, not joining a club that takes your money and tells you what to think.
May 7th, 2010 at 12:50 am
well usin my mind and the spiritual nature in which rises all curiosity i believe that religion is a healthy way to view reality. you do have religious nut job robbin people of healty religious exsperiences religion gives us clarity to view the world for what it really is unperfect and shallow but having a strong belief system allows us not to be sweeped away with the cold demands of this world but even those who dont believe in everythin believe in somethin

It is precisely the same. Just look at all the people denying it.
May 7th, 2010 at 2:05 am
O no , that’s called atheism, i thought you knew that by now ?!!
May 7th, 2010 at 2:34 am
For people with addictive personalities, it can definitely be a drug. Some people have to go to the extreme with things like alcohol, drugs, sex, religion, whatever. However, once the high of being a new convert wears off, they’re on to something else like a new religion or back to alcohol. For others its a coping mechanism to deal with a fear of death. If someone becomes religious as child, it’s because it’s the only thing they’ve ever known.
May 7th, 2010 at 2:53 am
I’m 15. No.
I Love life and I believe that God and Jesus Ar real and Jesus died for my sins and is my Lord and Savior. I have a great Girl and a bunch of friends and family and my life is great. I’m not missing anything.
May 7th, 2010 at 3:27 am
Actually, in a recent study, people who are religious were found to be more fulfilled people and better citizens

Addiction is a chronic disease that will eventually cost the addict their job, house, family, health and eventually their life.
Religion is a belief system concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe. Usually involves devotional and ritual observances, Holy text and a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs.
Believing in a faith is hardly an escape from reality, it’s the opposite. A believer must live according to founder’s teachings which goes against our natural inclination to rebel. It’s hard to be non-judgemental, to think of others over oneself, confess ones sins and live a good life.
I took masses of opiates and then found religion.
