Religulous

The more I read about different religions and the philosophies and rationales behind them the more it seems everywhere the same questions and problems exist-- why are we here, tensions between scriptural authority and spiritual experience, reconciling reality with a higher reality and so on.

I am actually quite tired of it and the whole concept of religion right now because everyone just wants to be right and is convinced they are right, and experiences they are right-- and it makes sense until there is a realization that everyone else also feels that way, and maybe there is no real difference.

Whilst I can understand how there is a pressing need for some to find out why and how we are existing (and where we go next) before we can live easy and meaningfully, I don't feel it myself presently, maybe I never really have? Life in general just seems ridiculous and meaningless, no matter how you try to explain it to me.
