  2. I’d put religion well ahead of money.

    Believers have been justifying genocide by saying its the will of their beardy sky fairy since long before money was invented. Check out the Old Testament for starters.

    1. Ian Duncan Smith, his successors, and the UK treasury have been conducting a silent genocide against the poor and disabled in the name of money too, though. IDS managed to privatize the genocide industry, instead of state funded gas chambers he simply made it impossible for the disabled to live so they died on their own or by their own hand. Money.

      Religion is certainly worse in terms of social restrictions and keeping the masses in their place, but money conducts genocides too in the UK.

  5. It is both, but we can do without religion now without changing the world, learning how to do without money will take time. And I mean all religion, it is all a bunch of superstition and fiction, borne of desperation and refusal to change things in the here and now in the hope that suffering will mean something later; which it won’t as there is no afterlife. All we have is here and now, so make your actions count today and enjoy life now not stupidly hoping for some afterlife.

    Once we put religion behind us, we might be able to take on that money thing.

    1. As a born again atheist I think you are right about religion.
      But money can be made virtuous with fair and democratically controlled tax systems.
      The Scandinavians are edging in the right direction … perhaps.

    2. “there is no afterlife”

      So the science is settled? Please provide evidence that this assertion is true – from a published peer-reviewed source by a qualified religiologist

  6. Well I am a stick in the mud but this born again thing is a load of balls.
    Ask any woman if she wants to give birth again to so some silly bugger can say he/she is born again.
