I think that people are infected with religiosity because they do not know how to think for themselves. The churches, and other powers that be, are in the business of profit by control. Children are trained in, and rewarded for, ways of thinking that should be considered self destructive and anti-human; they are often discouraged, even punished, when exhibiting skepticism and/or intelligence.

The best hope for the human race is for them to move forward by going back, to nature - and using plants that provide the mind with appropriate direction and insight into the proper uses of technology and the other sciences. The self-destructive tendencies of the human race must be recognized and curbed, or we will face disastrous consequences.

As I grew up, the more I began to think about religion and this idea of a god, and the more it came to me, isn't this a bit silly? This almighty powerful god for some reason created this extraordinarily complex universe and then left without showing shed of proof of his existence. I have talked with many religious people and have tried to understand their reasoning as to why they believe Rating: 5
