the worst eras of humanity have occurred under political systems aligned strongly with religion.
The single worst catastrophes of human against human are due to differences in religion.
How is it juvenile to desire for an end to the supersition?
How is it juvenile to wish that we lived in a world that judged people not by their stated belief in a big ol ghost but by their own merits?
I am insinuating NOTHING. I am outright YELLING IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS that religion has had PURELY a negative effect on science, technology, cutlutre and politics.
most advancements in our human history (which goes back just a mere 20 thou years or so recorded) were done outside, or in spite of, or under the direct suppression of, religions and religious groups.
religion is a pointless system by which those in power maintain the status quo.
religion is a purely human construct designed to appease the ignorant and bribe the gullible with promises of rewards after death if you just do as they say.
long live the sheep.
