Besides I am having a go at religions how they are not how they started, I believe religions started off with good intentions that have evolved into the corrupt, money driven, backwards religions today. For the most past as not all religions and sect of religion are the same so I am not talking about a particular one, I am talking about them in general, obviously some are better than others but some of them are really not doing the rest of the religions any favors at all.
"Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful" - Edward Gibbon (Offen misattributed to Lucius Annaeus Seneca or Seneca the Younger) (Thanks to apophenia for the correction)
