If religion is out of fear or just because it feels good, I agree it like a drug addiction and just as destructive. However if you find religion though experimentation, observation and rational thinking, it's just like any other belief; healthy and sound. I was taught math since childhood, does that make it an irrational or unhealthy belief? Would you compare a belief in chemistry or love of soccer to drug addiction? I never got a queezy feeling with or without religion, perhaps some pepto?
Not saying all christians are like that, but alot of them give me that idea Tack. Anyway, soccer and chemistry do exist, and although I personally think pro soccer (and all the pro sports for that matter) should be banned (modern roman circuses, enormous amounts of money spent on a game that could be spent in other more valuable causes) I don't feel the analogy extends that far. I don't advocate the end of sports, just pro sports, btw.
