Do we need religion?

Belief in something is good. It keeps you focused and if what you're focused on is something worthwhile and can help and benefit people then you're okay and you won't need grand ideas about unseen things to support your goals. But organized belief is something else. It's tendency is to grab your mind and your money. No, I think mass suicides isn't going to happen if we don't have those churches and religions. You just look it up. The Middle Ages didn't have suicides even with the threat of torture and death being foisted upon the population by the Religious Inquisitors because the mass killings in the name of religion were perpetrated by the inquisitors themselves..

 

That's what he said: "we need religion to spend our life beautifully ..."
Eating rotten human flesh and kissing dead dogs...maybe it is in the Qu'ran for a beautiful life...

 

Of course we do.. Its in us..

 

That's the catch foisted by the religionists. Their religion will save you, in exchange for mental slavery.

 

Yes, it is necessary.

 

yes we need religion, because a religion is an organized collection of beliefs and cultural systems

 

They were not caused by religion in fact. They were caused by greed and politics covering with religion

 

Do we need anything really? Not especially. Oxygen, Water, Food....that's it. Perhaps we should ask less about what we need and more about how we can accommodate and respect it.

 

I don't accept religion, nor do I allow anyone to speak to me about it.

 

Obama, Merkel, and Kiev need one more than anybody else. AND THAT MUST BE CHRISTIAN. Only hope for them to help them for the better.

 

Need what?
