I think religion has caused so much catastrophe in the world.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Religion has caused more misery to all of mankind in every stage of human history than any other single idea.
Religion has caused more harm than any other idea since the beginning of time. There's nothing good I can say about it. People use it as a crutch.
The greatest tragedy in mankind's entire history may be the hijacking of morality by religion.
I have increasingly, over the years, felt that religion today does our civilization more harm than good.
All outward forms of religion are almost useless, and are the causes of endless strife. Believe there is a great power silently working all things for good, behave yourself and never mind the rest.
Now I think one of the reasons why religion developed in the way that it did over the centuries was precisely to curb this murderous bent that we have as human beings.
Religion has become so many different things. Religion is an economic thing for some people. Religion is a gun.
Religious wars are not caused by the fact that there is more than one religion, but by the spirit of intolerance... the spread of which can only be regarded as the total eclipse of human reason.
Historically, more people have died of religion than cancer.
There is not enough religion in the world even to destroy religion.
