Religion is the enemy of reason

WE have had 2,000 years of Christianity. It has brought far more misery than good to people’s lives. Religions have opposed and refuted scientific advances down through the centuries as they know truth exposes the fantasies they would have us believe.

Religion is the enemy of reason

It’s time the Christians, Muslims, Jews and the rest of these chancers packed their bags and moved on. They cannot offer one iota of proof that any of their gods ever existed. Faith is the enemy of reason. The only reason people are religious is that it is browbeaten into them since they were children. We do not need religion to be good. Religion has been and is still used to justify evil, though. Give us a break from it for the next 2,000 years and let’s then contrast and compare.
