The Problem

Religion is harmful. Throughout history so much conflict, war and misery has been caused by organized religion that religious people hardly even see it. They probably attribute it to human nature, or “other religions.”

Rate-fracked!

Someone, I don’t know who, is seemingly intent on giving a rating of 1 to all of my posts!
