Religious faith should be objected to

Religious faith has four irreducible objetions to it, of which are:

1) It misrepresents the origins of life and the cosmos

2) Because of 1 it manages to combine the maximum of servility with the maximum of solipsism

3) It is the result and cause of dangerous sexual opression

4) It is grounded on wish-thinking

 

Do you object to religious faith, or do you support it?

"When it comes to bullshit, big-time, major league bullshit, you have to stand in awe of the all-time champion of false promises and exaggerated claims, religion. No contest. No contest. Religion. Religion easily has the greatest bullshit story ever told. Think about it. Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!

But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money! Religion takes in billions of dollars, they pay no taxes, and they always need a little more. Now, you talk about a good bullshit story. Holy Shit! "

I object to religion, as I would object to anything else grounded in myth, superstition and a suspension of logic and thinking for yourself.
