Pleasure and Joy

[Foxaèr]

Without proper guidance, he may easily be trapped into false ideas. The problem here is how should we reform which instructions or laws are correct and which are not. For that, we should use our intellect that had been given by nature to us. We have to be sincere in our feelings while studying laws or instructions so that no personal preference over rule anything.

Being atheist means that one is no longer trapped by those false religious ideas. After all, it is the goal of the church to control the masses by stating that any idea outside of its dogma is false. Obviously, religious instructions are not something to which a healthy minded individual should adhere. It is too bad that religious people do not use the intellect with which they were born, because they still believe as they were brainwashed into believing. As far as law is concerned, the founding fathers got it right in stating that there should be a separation of church and state.

We don’t want to put efforts to learn the truth behind the scenes because we feel lazy. Laziness is another form of pleasure. It is this laziness that keeps us away from our learning process.

I have to agree with you here. Religious people have become so scientifically and logically lazy that they would rather believe in a magical sky daddy than understand that accepting the existence of a divine deity is a byproduct of intellectual laziness.
