Religions raise questions:
“Why do bad things happen to good people?”
“If God loves us why does He let babies die of cancer?”
“Why does science contradict the Bible?”
Etc:
Religions cause suffering:
War.
Brainwashing.
Persecution.
Discrimination.
Etc:
Religions are escapism:
“The Devil made me do it.”
“She's in Heaven with the Angels now.”
“God will save us from global warming.”
Etc:
Religions are a warm cozy blanket in a sometimes harsh, cruel world, and for that they are wonderful. However; if they are based upon fact, they do not come from a god. At best they come from a benevolent ruler, at worst, from a psychotic despot.
People invented “God” and created “Him” in there own image. “King of Kings”, not many kings with any real power left today though. I wonder why?
People invented the “Devil” to explain away questions that couldn't otherwise be explained, to persecute people for not being “one of us”, and to get them off the hook, when they screwed up.
When you let go of religion and become 'truly just', all becomes clear.
No more questions about the nature of existence.
No more worries.
No more fears.
No more 'Gods'.
No more 'Devils'.
No more 'Faith'.
No more religion.
And if everybody did it:
No more hate, discrimination, war, greed, crime...etc:
Not that it would ever happen, but you get my point.
'Gods' really don't exist. Anything that you think is a 'God', isn't a 'God'. Any 'Holy Book' upon which you base your existence, isn't 'Holy', because it didn't come from a 'truly just' being or beings, human or otherwise.
I'm sorry if this ruffles a few feathers, but look where thousands of years of religion have got us. Perhaps a few feathers need to be ruffled.
