OK we have a discussion, The main point as mentioned by some on the thread is that religion is an instrument for control, used by politicians and people running society. I do not believe religion to be a good thing, but I do believe that politicians etc use it as a tool to control people.

I think all responses are generally from Atheists. I was trying to be delicate in my wording on the first post of this thread, as I have upset religious types in the past.

Does anyone think the current Pope believes Jesus existed, Pope Pious X stated the Jesus MYTH has served us well?

Does anyone think your average Politician believes religion is anything but a tool to control the masses, and possibly win votes?

Many Politicians globally are freemasons is their a link?

The Templars had the power to depose kings in the 13th century, perhaps they never went away and are still running the worlds banking system. See the American dollar Bill.?

Does anyone think that there is a way to persuade politicians that religion is bad, or that there is a middle way, to teach the truth, about the myths and where religion originates.?

Would a one world government be a bad thing, this is one of freemasons aims according to their writings.?

Would anyone like to speculate coherently rather than rant.

I don't live in an English speaking country so my English Grammar is getting a bit rusty. The Dog Black sat on the Mat Red type thing. You will just have to accept it, my English aint what it used to be.

I still think father Christmas is a good idea for kids, and winter solstice celebrations for adults are a good thing, but I think we have covered this concept.
