ok, moving on, and I didn't want to start a new thread, so I'll hijack my own.

What's with religion still being in existance. Granted it is a form of brainwashing on the young, and of course it is all about control, fear and ultimately money and power. Religious people are just sheep, used by the powers that be to spread the "word"...weak minded in my opinion. What I don't get is I was brought up surrounded by catholics, but I figured out at a young age that religion..any religion is totally shite. I was under the opinion that most people would come to this conclusion..what with science so obviously rational. I mean, we will soon clone people..they grew a human ear on the back of a rat..how can anyone still have bogus faith of any kind? Science is "god"..evolution..we are primates..you can see it in our features. To think how much of the world, seemingly intelligent people remain religious is freaky, and quite frankly makes me embarassed to be human. "In god we trust" printed on money? "God bless Canada?" It's like were still in the middle ages. We should know better by now.
Religion is so widespread that it must serve a purpose in our brains. Life followed by death is not enough; there must be something more after we die.

Encouraging us to believe in religion is also always handy for the the powers that be -- don't worry if your life sucks, you will get another chance. That alone explains why religion is propagated.
