themurphyYou described almost every religion ever.
Religion is a mental disorder. Prove me wrong. (with actual studies and not anecdotes)
CptHackeIn order to answer the challenge, I suppose the first question would be ‘what constitutes a religion?’ If you’re simply talking about a group of people who share a passionately held belief that tries to get others to conform to that belief through emotional manipulation, intimidation and peer pressure, well….you’re pretty much talking about the entire human race.
Yes, the entire human race is contemptible. I’m glad we could arrive at this conclusion.
Heh…not sure why such a conclusion would make you glad, but if there’s one thing that’s universally true of the human race, it’s that people will do amazing things - amazingly awesome things, and amazingly terrible things. I guess the trick is to try to do more of the awesome stuff as much as we can…. shrug
