Hi,

Religion is simply a means to an end.  It is nothing more than a tool,
an important tool, but still only a tool.  Focusing on the tool
takes away from moving on toward the goal.  And to a Christian, the goal is
eternity with a loving God.  I use the tool to help reach God.

What is the goal to believing God has no interest in you?

What does believing you are no more important to God than the dog that runs
across your front yard get you?

God Bless,
