Think about it. It fuels fires between large populations of people, spurring some awefully passionate hatred and some of the most bloody wars in history. It makes everyone think they're above everyone that believes something different. It allows people to blame others for "not being like Jesus", yet the religious will also use religion to justify their misdeeds. "We'll be forgiven because we believe." Even the furthest right of the religious stand around pointing fingers at eachother saying "he says he's a Christian, but he's not REALLY a Christian".

So with all the religious wars, all the killing, all the name calling, and arguing, and the endless bantering, religious rhetoric and debates, where does it get you? Does it make you a more loving, more caring person? Cause I'm sure as hell not feeling the love from any religious person I've ever met. What's the REAL purpose behind religion?
