Marx once called religion "the opiate of the masses," but for some people it seems to be more like some kind of meth.

You know I wouldn't mind religion if they would just take 500,000,000mg of chill sometimes 💊. Make believe isn't a bad thing per se, but considering recent events… They've got to chill! · 2 years ago

'religiosity oriented to the good' depends on your religion, crusades can be good.... bombing the unbelievers can be good... killing in the name of your god can be good and you go striaght to paradise if you do so... · 2 years ago

True, senseless and blind religiosity can be really damaging, but religiosity oriented to the Good is wonderful · 2 years ago
