Joe > My basic theory is any mass marketed organized religious fanaticism, be it Christian, Judiasim, Moslim or Hindu, are not capable of rational thinking and always end up in big disaster for human race.

I believe that myself but there is a fundamental difference between some of the "religions" you have mentioned or, rather, implied because you omitted Zionism which is a new "religion" based on materialism and conquest and embracing sections of both the Christian and Jewish religions. Hinduism does not promote war in any shape or form nor is it interested in proselytism (conversion) which is fundamental to both Christianity and Islam.

> Religion is an opium which kills all critical thinking and brain washes sheeple to follow some idiots who exploit them to the hilt.

That's its whole purpose -- to substitute dogma and belief for doubt and critical analysis.

Sure, but for me, as a foreigner, it's tragic, even sad, to see a once progressive country like the US returning to the Dark Ages. It must be unbearable for thinking Americans.
