effects of religion

[abaris]

Education and religion are natural enemies, since brain employment is detrimentary to belief. It's worse with science, as is proven by taking even a casual look at the Middle Ages and Europe's slide into barbarity. The idiots weren't even able to maintain the Roman Aqueducts and let them fall to ruins.

And war? Do you even need to ask how many times wars have been fought about who's god had the bigger dick? Today, as Boru said, war is good for business, but there are still some very prominent and sadly powerful idiots like Chimp W Bush rambling about a crusade.
