Geez, it's obviously impossible to live exactly by the book. Of course, passages are going to be ignored.

I think God is simply a mean to give people's life meaning and purpose.

Any group, government, society, organization, family, community, etc. has their own rules and beliefs.

You're choosing to believe in something, but clearly not religion. I hope you can still be moral and ethical, though.

I don't need an angry sky guy to threaten me with hell to be moral and ethical. I also don't need him to give me meaning and purpose. I can do that all on my own. I believe in karma, be a good human.

I love your reply, and I agree with most of it. Mostly the second half.

But I think your perceptions of God, Hell and Heaven are quite naive. I don't believe in tooth fairies and unicorns, either.
