Well, for the majority of human history, religion and politics were synonymous. The power behind the throne and all that. It's only been within the last century or so, with the increasingly free dissemination of information and the emphasis on the importance of education, that religious 'leaders' have felt their grip on political power slipping. And that terrifies them.
What saddens me most of all with regards to religion is the willingness, the eagerness, with which people want to enchain themselves to what has been, for countless centuries, the preferred method for controlling and fleecing the populace. At one time they wouldn't have had the choice, other than "submit or die"; now they do and they still want to surrender themselves?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
