I'm talking about the TRUE believers in the whole man in space watching over everything with a big master plan crap. Those willing to die for their "beliefs". I question their sanity. I wonder how anyone could be so gullible. Then I remember...they start the indoctrination...the brainwashing when they're infants with no defense...it SHOULD be considered child abuse...but religion is too important to the rulers...so they allow the mass insanity...the mass delusion. Just like they allow the mass delusion of racial and sexual equality.

If, you think religion is a beautiful thing, READ a bit of history.
It becomes quite ugly due to people practicing it.
Religion seems to be a human need to explain the unexplainable.
READ about the the Spanish Inquisition where monks recording, in writing, the screaming of people IN PAIN before they converted to Christianity. The Crusades-they did not only murder Moslems, they murdered Jews as well.
The pope told them they could kill for salvation and they could take anything they wanted-so long as the church got their cut. They brought faith to the Incas while stealing gold and bringing them disease. For the American Indians, some of whom actually showed the first settlers-INVADERS-how to survive, in the name of faith, in the name of religion they took the Indian's wealth-their land and they destroyed the Indian's culture. ASIDE-the Indians loved and protected the land. Global warming, excessive population growth-WOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM.
We showed them a better way. IS IT REALLY?????
Could not leave out the Holocaust. We blame Hitler. We must blame Hitler for the establishment of peace. But, GERMANY killed half of the Jews in Europe. The Vatican?
Some helped Jews and some helped the Nazis. RELIGION?????
