I guess it is very easy these days to end up lonely because with all this technology human companion (or should I say face to face) has become almost obsolete. And if you're a very young person, like just finished high-school it can get very hard. And that's why society should organize something like mandatory camping: you know to go away from "the grid" for few months and spend some time with strangers your own age and bond with them. And by that time maybe you could join the army or something like that.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
