Too often people use politics and religion to judge others, when the real purpose of both is to set a standard to judge yourself and what sort of person you really are. People treat politics and religion as a sport. They want their "favorite team" to win at all costs, even if the costs are truth and virtue. We are perfectly willing to deny the obvious truths, or believe the obvious lies if it furthers our team. And I have to say that I believe that too much money has ruined both politics and religion.
Frankly, I hope the subsequent generations, including my two daughters, view both politics and religion with more sanity, civility, and intelligence than I see our generation exhibit.

Because we're brainwashed to believe the lies starting as infants. Nobody would believe ANY of the religious garbage if we were exposed to it later in life. Why do you think people will "talk sh!t" about Muslims, Jews, Hari Crishnas, whatever...even Catholics and Protestants talk sh!t about each others religion? Because they're exposed to it AFTER they can think rationally. The rest went through some trauma and THOUGHT religion helped them. Again, they weren't thinking rationally when they adopted religion. ALL religion is a fraud whether intentionally or not. NONE can be proven especially the spy who lives in space. If a "God" is needed to created EVERYTHING...who/what created the "God"? "God" certainly didn't "just appear" out of nothingness. The "Big Bang" is God? Fine...don't worship it.
You're completely correct...religion is lies. And there's always someone willing to "teach you the truth" for 10%.
Awww...you were doing so well... Religion is about control and collecting 10% to fund their lifestyle. Actually, the control part is just a ruse to get that 10%. Look at the Catholic Church...rich beyond measure. And yet...they ask for more? Each week? The "standard" they set, keeps you in line and ensures you're "noble", "charitable", "Empathetic" enough to keep "giving to the Lord", 10%.
Ah...back to reality. Yup, religion and politics, it's all a big con job to separate you from your hard earned money.
We can't talk openly about either...add diversity to the too. We are FORBIDDEN from discussing the REAL issues that have a REAL effect on our lives. Tell your daughters to speak openly and the h3ll with political correctness. If religion is crazy...say it. If politics is completely corrupt...say it. If minorities are destroying this country/culture/civilization...say it! We're censored and we're dealing with brainwashing victims. They REALLY believe in "their team" and many WILL fight you over differences, even though it's all based on lies.
Now...here it comes...the outrage from the brainwashed, ignorant rabble. Telling me I'm deplorable but offering NO evidence that I'm wrong and they're right...besides THEIR propaganda book.
I'll vote late and I'll vote for whatever 3rd party is doing the best at the time. ANYONE but a D or R.
