Back again.
For someone to say the following that I quote hereunder...a quote on the text summing up the movie...and then not offer an alternative..given the general need for authority to maintain civilization is not constructive.
Dont destroy things if you have nothing better to offer ...
If it is so bad how about an alternative..not a utopia that we have no hope to achieve but an alternative that will work as well or better...
I think about the proposition and given humanities short history I can not suggest one.....
this is the final para of the text you can not blame everything on a group that is not going to do anyone any good at all...
quote..........
Christianity, along with all other theistic belief systems, is the fraud of the age. It served to detach the species from the natural world, and likewise, each other. It supports blind submission to authority. It reduces human responsibility to the effect that "God" controls everything, and in turn awful crimes can be justified in the name of Divine Pursuit. And most importantly, it empowers those who know the truth but use the myth to manipulate and control societies. The religious myth is the most powerful device ever created, and serves as the psychological soil upon which other myths can flourish
