ALHOLK Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 they are worried ( know for a fact) if their religion is questioned by intelligent persons, it would not survive to let them maintain their power over their "followers" ( regardless if their leaders believe the b.s. or not) I have quite rcently read Richard Dawkins book "The God Delusion". He claims that Martin Luther wrote that "Knowledge is the biggest threat to religion and therefor must be faught". If this is true Martin Luther must have been a rather intelligent person. Not necessarily a nice person but definitively intelligent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mekong Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people ​But Karl Marx wasn't the first with such a remark Novalis 1798 Ihre sogenannte Religion wirkt bloß wie ein Opiat reizend, betäubend, Schmerzen aus Schwäche stillend. (Their so-called religion works simply as an opiate - stimulating; numbing; quelling pain by means of weakness.) Heinrich Heine 1840 Welcome be a religion that pours into the bitter chalice of the suffering human species some sweet, soporific drops of spiritual opium, some drops of love, hope and faith Daevid Allen Min 1970's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
