Does Religion Have A Place in the World?
#6
RE: Does Religion Have A Place in the World?
Faith is an emotional state. How would you view an organization that claimed they owned your sense of hope or love and that you could only truly hope for the future or love your family and friends if you do it through their organization? I'd think they were arrogant and delusional too.
Religions claim a lot more of course, this is just something which irks me.
The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than that a drunken man is happier than a sober one. ~ George Bernard Shaw
