Religion causes more problems than it solves.

 

I await your brutal backlash

I don't know if that is true or not.  All I can say that I think a large part of the problems is that too many people have decided to hate because of their religious beliefs.   As member of my religion(Christian, United Methodist Church), we are not supposed to show hatred for our enemies or those of different beliefs and what not.   We are supposed to show love.   That is what I try to do.  That's why I can't stand Pat Roberson or those freaks that protest funerals.  They give my religion a bad name. We are not supposed to judge.  That's Gods job.    I think also part of the problem is people sometimes follow their beliefs without a does of common sense mixed in.    God or Nature or whatever gave us logic and reasoning for a reason,  we need to use it.  

Warb and I are on the same page, it seems.
