There are many reasons religion "sucks". You're reasons are almost infantile, relying on particularly stupid stereotypes

Interesting that you left Judaism out...
Oh and Scientology (they are an accepted Religion afterall! Eventhough I cant really understand why)...
Oh and Jehovahs witnesses have apparently never come to your door... They just want to spread the message of "god". As does any church. The only difference is, that Jehovahs witnesses are frouned upon thanks to the christian churches. And due to many countries seeing themselves as christian countries, there are no massive churches for jehovas witnesses. But in order to get membres, they have to do something. So why not go from door to door and ask for money. Hell the Catholic church does it on January 6th every year. You just more inclined to pay them off because they send children (and everyone is so much more inclined to pay horrendous amounts of money when children are asking for it) and not convinced members of their religion. And I know that I sound very much like a hyppocryte because I live in a country whose wellfare state was created by church...

At least where i live the money is donated or invested in local projects. There´s absolutely no interested in making profit or get new members. On top of that, the children have fun, mainly because they can walk around in costumes. Can´t see anything negative there.

Judaism has suffered enough. Even though I'm against every religion I have to say that there are some religions who have suffered from killing. I want to say that I respect every human in the world even if they believe in a god. I respect the religions even though I think it's wrong. I respect the churches even though I see it as a waste of money.

Sure, its fun for the kids BUT,
The catholic Church has enough money to fund 5 "feed the world" projects, collects money every sunday in mass and then comes around at every possible occasion to ask for money so the DIOZESE can built a new project and claim it as donated by the catholic church...

Actually, Every Religion has suffered through Killing (I believe you mentioned the 30 year long war), except for the newly emerged religions (mormonism and Scientology)...
But only the Jews suffered under the organized Extermination of a specific religion. You cant really single out any religion with that argument...
But yes, people, faithful or not, should be respected...

My church is a big money hog. I skip church a few weeks and they bill my house. WTF? So now I give them nothing.

I think it's funny how religions are constantly asking for money.
For an allknowing, allpowerfull and omnipotent being, God is pretty crap when it comes to financial handling since he appears to be going broke constantly.

Only Scottish and EU students pay low tution fees of ca. 2000 pounds, students form the rest of the UK have to pay 9000 (numbers from the University of Edinburgh).
Scottish government pays the £2000 for undergraduate student fees, so its actually free. I think they actually pay for EU students as well. And I love it 
And yet most of my mates still want to go to England and throw away their money  |

Not the church in general, my particular church, as in a church, like a physical building.

Alright... Why are they billing you when you not show up in church?
pcm2009fan:
Thanks for giving us a fresh look.I got it right afterall  I was kinda doubting my knowledge about scottish unis or thought they may have chaged it. I knew I had it right. one thing for sure, is taht all EU and EEA students are treated as Scots, as in we would have to pay the same as them!
By the way, do you guys have a registration fee/student contribution...

That's what I want to know! Ahh screw them. They said I don't represent my parish by giving money. Screw it. I didn't pay that bill, and they legally can't make me.
