That’s the problem with indoctrination; the whole point of ....[religious] .... education is to stop someone from thinking and instead kick their emotions into gear.

Believers are no different to the rest of us. No more happy/sad. No more fulfilled/unfulfilled. No more virtuous/wicked. In fact, the only noticeable difference is that they give control over their lives to someone else, to a fictional being and to an interesting but extremely flawed, book. |

I think the "decline in membership" the Catholic church reports is mostly due to so many people using their own version of barbaric ancient beliefs to suit their twisted individual goals (e.g., political power, controlling women, money ambitions, voter-suppression, owning an armory). I just wish it would decline much faster before there is nothing left over for us rational thinkers to protect. |
