In Age of Science, Is Religion 'Harmful Superstition'?

[libodem]

18. Watched a Rachael Maddow

In V&M about 'C' Street and the evangelical movement of of political zealots to Africa and Europe exporting nonsense about the Second Coming as a foregone conclusion. In that context, yes. And, its expensive to tax payers,too. And it's crazy scammy bullshit.

Plus, those Dominuist loons that Palin and Cruise belong to. That is also a takeover of everything by believers from government to entertainment, I wonder if they are behind the movement to destroy education, because of it?
I belive they would see our whole secular education system destroyed because Religious Zealots feel it competes with, Creation. Yeah, it's dangerous.

Also the demand that women are subjugated to fit the family values model of 2nd class status, in everything, become, you know, "the rib", part of creation.
As you know men have been giving birth to humanity, ever since, right? All life flows from the loins of men and from God the Father. Manhood trumps everything because women were somehow actually born of a man. Also when you get right down to it the immaculate conception, besides being unbelievable, is an unconsented forcible rape of a child under 18.

If Science behaved toward Religion the way Religion challenges Science, there would be huge cries of persecution and malice, in subjects like evolution and geophysical carbon dating especially.

Yeah, its dangerous to one's intellect. It's probably just as emotionally crippling but no one needs another essay out of my philosophical ass, today.

No offense to anyone who finds comfort in the doctrine and dictates of the 'word'. Have at it, Hoss.
