Except.... why so angry? No one is force feeding you the Word. Or, are they?

You have got to be kidding. Are you so naïve that you can't see the evil that religion has done in this world? Right now, Canada is flying flags at half-mast because of the discovery of a mass grave of children at a Catholic-run residential school in British Columbia.

It isn't the beliefs, per se - it's the infantilization of believers and the vesting of virtually unlimited power in the hands of manipulative people in the name of (the Mother Church, Fearless Leader, The Party -- any ideology, religious or secular, where power is centralized and obedience is coerced).

Humanity doesn't need messages to the effect of "Just obey God and everything will turn out okay." Humanity needs to take a giant step away from obedience and towards personal responsibility, and start basing morality on empathy rather than a fear of being punished.
