Don't Ever Question: Just Believe.
If we all went by that, we'd all believe everything that we hear. We'd believe in every religion, and every hypothesis. We'd all live by every contradiction possible. If people just want me to believe and have faith in a single religion, I'd have to have faith in all of them, because they all equally don't make sense. I couldn't ethically choose one, and have sufficient reasoning to back up why I believe one religion over another. They all don't have remotely anything near good evidence that they are truth, in fact, we know that some claims in many these books are false. When an honest person takes an objective look at these religions, and sees things that aren't true in them, and sees that there are many contradictions in them, one must discard that as something not to being taken seriously, and NOT DEFEND IT. Faith=Stupidity. The devil doesn't make you think logically, it's religion that makes you think illogically.

Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' -Isaac Asimov-
