I think some of you guys are oversimplifying things. Black or
white. Religion is great. Religion is stupid, and so are
all the religious people. People who don't believe in God
are stupid. People who believe in God are stupid.
I for one think someone can believe in some higher being
(if that someone lets say refuses to believe in the big bang
theory) without being (overly) religious.
Of course religion can be dangerous, but its the people
that are making it that way. What I'm saying is, people
will always find a reason to behave like idiots, be it religion or
something else. Stupid people are stupid people,
religious or not.
Basically, I agree about the dangers of religious fanatics, but not all religious people are fanatics.
