Religion. Mental Illness or Cancer within society?

Organised Religion is a disease within society. One that affects clarity of thought. It prevents freethinking and forces the brain to ignore evidence, instead instilling a belief in ancient myths. It holds back the potential of human beings by dulling their perception of the world. A weakness, an illness that is forced on to children and vulnerable, uninformed adults before they have the mental capacity to resist and is perpetuated by cultural relics dressed up as traditions from an age gone by. The cure is rational thought. A diet of science, study, intelligent conversation and a willingness to accept that traditions based on ancient myths have been proved to have no basis in reality. Responsible education of the next generation, teaching facts not fiction and encouraging scepticism. Once cured, the modern world can progress towards a better future.

Radical, fundamental and extreme religions are a cancer. They preach division, hatred, regressive lies and stone age morals. They are dangerous and destroy all before them with no thought or consideration. They have to be cut out, removed from modern societies as their very existence is counter to the advancement of a moral and just community. They aggressively resist and destroy all

Two new PapaPopes magically re-invented as saints.

Breaking News. An old man, who believes he can talk to made-up sky gods, bestows sainthood on two dead men from the same anachronistic institution. An institution that denies people contraception, has a deep set aversion to equal rights, covers up centuries of systematic abuse of children and the vulnerable, is tainted by scandal, sexism and hatred and believes that dubious claims about miracles should be taken seriously whilst ignoring all the latest scientific evidence that contradicts their out of date beliefs.

In scenes that could have been taken from a 'Python' film, the BigPappaPope was asked three times in

Let's celebrate something meaningful. Humbug to Xmas.

Well, thank goodness that all that nonsense is over and done with for another year. I am talking, of course, about 'Christmas' and 'New Year'. At the risk of being called 'a humbug' or a 'party-pooper,' it really is the worst time of year. The depths of a Northern Hemisphere winter spoilt by overly commercialised, overly religious festivals that nobody thinks about and that should have no place in a modern society. I mean, think about it. Prophecies, virgin births, angels, wise men, magical moving stars, stables, donkeys, trees, turkeys, crackers, reindeer, chimneys and gifts. Really? What a load of absolute hokum. Nothing more than a mixed up, patchwork quilt of Pagan,
