What Is Your Religion?

If you answered any of the major religions then you have implicitly admitted that you believe that there are angels floating around and a devil and all the baggage that goes along with religion.Whether fundamentalist or moderate you nonetheless have bought into the story of each religion which invariably involves higher powers and their minions talking to people and giving them simple and useless information as opposed to difficult and useful information.Telling people what to wear is simple and useless as opposed to a cure for cancer which is difficult and useful.We all know into which category "angelic" messages fall. So in this way you have internalised the schizophrenia inherent in communicating with imaginary beings and made it part of your being although perhaps in an unconscious and perhaps unassuming way.Discard all references to unscientific iron age sophistry and challenge all others to prove their beliefs by tangible means not just words and circular arguments.You will find they cannot.
