religion is a good basis for a societal standpoint/basic guide lines. I think it is needed for those who don't know how to play nice with other kids, but like anything else it will be perverted by those wishing power over others and some sense of a greater purpose.. which for the record I believe there is a bigger purpose, what that is I don't know.. and I find it somewhat offensive that people would be so hubrariffic as to claim they know the mind of god (or goddess.. or whatever). to me the bulk of people use religion as a crutch and an excuse to love and hate other people and lifestyles that they don't agree with. some people however hold the true teachings of the prophets to heart.. and those people I envy.. anywhoo! for the most part keep your peanut butter out of my chocolate... and I'll do the same.. fair enough?
ps. right on 9th engineer
