Religion is the root of all evil . You can fight me on this but you know that it's true?
And Humanity is all we have. The only thing we know for sure is that this planet, the only planet known to sustain human life, is inhabited by the only humans known to exist in this universe. There is proof that humans exist, there is proof that science has merit. Investing and growing our species is the only chance we have for survival-- and it starts with the only thing we truly know how to do: be human.
When this becomes clear (and I believe it will), as beautifully stated by
rikfredsy, I'm sure the words (adapted) of Henry Ford, applies (in the context of religion):
It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our faith and religious system(s), for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning
