I still despise religion and the church, but no longer I inform myself about it or dedicate much thought to it. My interest has shifted toward capitalism instead.
Anyone relates? God speed
Actually, I'm the opposite. I used to have a live-and-let-live approach and I still pretty much do but I am growing increasingly angry at all irrational worldviews because I see where the world is headed and why. Now, I'm not saying that religion is the chief cause because there are many bad ideas out there but they are a large part and they are teaching young defenseless children this stuff. I don't have that much anger toward the rank-and-file members but the leaders are another story. They have made it their life's work to spread a false view of the world we live in. Like Henry Binswanger says: Faith is an icepick to the brain.
