The Trouble With Religion
The trouble with religion is that it has revealed everything except the truth. Indeed, if religion were to make any sense at all - it must reveal, first and foremost, - the truth; especially the truth about the existence of God! There is no such revelation. No such truth.
Philosopher Bertrand Russell said it: "Religion encourages stupidity and an insufficient sense of reality."
For my part, I say religion has paved the way for amnesia that makes the Filipino forgetful of the historical horror that he is already spiritually degraded, morally twisted, and politically
corrupted as the Sick Man of Asia. Poch Suzara Google# Atheist# Twitter# Facebook#

Poch, the problem with atheism is that without God there is no Day of Judgment when the people you describe as spiritually degraded, morally twisted and politically corrupt will be punished for the evil they do. Without the Day of Judgment, there is no ultimate judgment in this world. Hitler will go scot-free, so will Stalin and Mao and Kim Il Sung and Pol Pot; all atheists by the way. Poch, you need God in order to condemn these people. If there is no God, then there are no moral absolutes by which you have the right to judge someone else.
